Hwy 9 Fun Run!

Project gauges and Profec B install finally done. Of course being me I screwed things up a little bit, but I think one of the how-tos here has faulty information pertaining to the defi gauges and illumination or I am an idiot, both are possible....

Now I just gotta learn how to use all my new toys.
 
Hell yeah I'll meet up with you, Roy. I'll talk to you tomorrow about what time we should meet. I'm burnt.
Congrats, Jared!
 
I haven't actually played with the boost controller yet, but it looks as though the gauge install was a success and my car still runs. :D

I gotta put my colder plugs in tomorrow, then up the boost slightly. Looks like it's running around 6.5psi to 7psi right now. I am gonna try and get it up to 8 or maybe 9, but no higher until engine management gets here. Should be fun.

Let's have a donut meet this week. Wednesday may or may not work for me at this point, I gotta figure my schedule out, but Thursday night could probably be good :)
 
Yeah, I want to have a meet this week. Jrod, will I be able to get your exhaust this week cause I want to install it before I go back down south. I want it installed by wednesday or thurday of this week if possible. Nate if we do have a meet this week bring your radar and i'll buy it for $40.
 
Yeah life doesn't get any better than this a little (smoke) a little wrenching on the car. Here is the picture of my rotors. The picture was taken last night so the quality isn't so good.

My new exhaust is going in on Thursday, so I could have it for you if we have a meet on Thursday night.
 
Back end is totally done now, here's what I did:

Touch Up calipers
New Wheels
Clean Coilovers
Clean Wheels
Brush/Paint Rotors

Now in the front I'm going to:
Paint Calipers
Brush/Paint Rotors
Clean/Mount Wheels
Clean Coilovers
Put in New Spring
Projectors

Hmmm which do you like better. Kid these are the wheels you liked right?:

Jrod where are you gettin your exhaust installed at?? If its at Rishie's then i'll go there too so that he can install mine at the same time. Do any of you guys happen to know what time Rishie's place opens and closes ??
 
I am having it installed at a place in Morgan Hill, couldn't get it done at Rishies are a regular exhaust shop, because having it installed also involved chaning the radiator because of the S-Pipe that comes off the turbo.
 
what's this? do I hear a meet on thursday? can we have it kinda near SF? like.. maybe somewhere within an hour or so away?

Do you have a place in mind Chuey ??
Do you guys usually meet near Redwood City? More north? More south? I don't really have a place in mind.. just meet where you guys usually meet, and hopefully there'll be enough gas in the tank to get me there. (2thumbs)

whoa thats pretty far. I'd be more than willing to make the trip down, so long as I've got nothing better to do. Are you guys meeting there for sure? Could we move it a bit more north? Chimon! help a brotha out!(wink)
