Rental car abuse FTW.


Wheels/tires should be here in 5-7 days. Other look-good parts should be here in 2 weeks or so. Car will have a complete makeover by mid-July.

 

I already think that kittah is in my c0mput@r stealins my int@rnetz....work internet is as slow as a 2.2 today.

With or without the dent?

 

Dont knock the dent. That is the smooth part...

 

hahahahahaha

 

Dent will be gone.

 

there is a maruder 4 sale by work.... nice car

 

I'd love to have one. That's usually what instructor Jim takes out on the track. Badass car and he can drift it like a ****...

 

There is a dude in Mt. Pleasant that has a Novi-Paxton supercharged one. He knew one of the techs real well when i worked at Kenny Ross. It was decently quick for a 4200lb old people mover.

 

Yeah, amazing what forced induction can do to an otherwise "pedestrian"car...

Hell... look at our cars.

 

Hell, I could have told you that!

 

Landlord lives up to expectations: How does one manage to fix a door that sticks by cutting down the edges of the door and in then end the door sticks WORSE than it did before?????? Had to kick the door to my own house in just to get inside. This man should be studied...

 

is that marauder boosted?

because stock they were just a dohc 32v 4.6

 

No Jya, not that I'm aware of. I just meant that it's amazing what a N/A car can become a cooker when you do that.

Stop posting BTW... you're away on vacatoin with the woman...

 

It is so nice outside. Im bored. Any chance anyone is out this way and wants to pile around?

 

Wes is on his way, but we're kinda on the other end of town. Gonna do a lil tuning essperiment.

 

Did you ever switch wes' 60's out with yours to see if he had that fuel injector problem? I would never get to the other side of pittsburgh at a decent time. Its really quiet out this way tonight. Something must be going on...

 

We're fairly certain its a spark issue due to higher compression. Theres a work around in hptuners we're going to try shortly. It worked on my car, we'll know for sure on his as his problem is 10x worse.

 

Al... whats up?

anyone in for irwin tomorrow?

 

I doubt ill be at Irwin tomorrow. Maybe in for something afterwards. Someone will have to give me a call and let me know whats up. Anyone feeling a Mt. Pleasant run one of these nights?

 

Sorry, can't make it to Irwin tomorrow. The contractor finally called about our bathroom, so I need to rearrange stuff in bedrooms so that they can bust out a wall to put in a new bath tub...fun.

 

Well I got the car to 7900 tonight so I guess its semi ok. Still not perfect as the car went boom yet again for no reason at 5k. Hopefully we can get the car 100% tomorrow and I can take my try at some land yacts

 

I doubt I'll be back in Irwin in time for the cruise, but you never know.

Speaking of cars that go boom......

I talked to Ed yesterday and he ran @ Norwalk. Best time on low boost mode was 12.2 @ 116, and with the CLTUCH SLIPPING ( again ) he ran a 12.1 @ 116.

That's clutch #3 and again being replaced for free, and the company that made the clutch is also throwing in a free new pressure plate that is new model, higher strength, and is said to need NO break in time.

Meaning the first time he drives it, they can take it to the strip without wories.

 

Yeah, from the way everyone's been talking, Irwin isn't sounding too promising. Too many other people with too many other things going on this weekend. Oh well, it's summer, stuff happens. If there's a decent number of people going, we may be there, otherwise we'll probably be staying in.

 

booooo

 

I know I've mentioned it before... but today is my brother's grad party. I'll be out all day. Depending on how much of the Uber Bong I see today, I might be out tomorrow too.
