Sorry to hear about your wreck man
All that matters is your ok and it wasn't your fault

yea lets get our **** up and running by dec

 

Mr.Monsen, still no dice! However, both my rack & my exhaust are sitting comfortably underneath my bed. haha

Jaime, don't get all ambitious on me man. lol I was thinking like before next June.

 

hahaha your right... well right now , if i get a job quick, the fd will be done in 2 months hahah

 

Just got my Zeal Super Functions in the mail today.
16kg front/rear..... Can't wait to run these at Infineon Raceway up here in NorCal.
Weight: Front each 8lbs 9lbs rear. Aluminum body with pillowball upper/lower mounts.


Thanks Don (DJF(NJ)) for the hook up, great seller.

 

Wow those may be the stiffest spring rates I know of on an FC. Super lightweight too, wow. Are the threads aluminum too?!

 

It's going on a FD m8. Here's some info.

Wow, Mike! Great build- It's almost like mine. Hey-if you ever want to get rid of any more of your "purple parts" shoot me a pm.-Matt

 

Super Functions have full aluminum construction and are extremely light.

A good shock can run a high spring rate and not break your back.

 

Matt, I've been contemplating switching up the accent color, I'll let you know for sure. It'd be nice to see it go to a good home.

Ganesh, thanks for your professional insight. Just pm'd you back.

 

That vband 42 is awesome.

 

@Barban, thanks man. Sean did some great work on the manifold too.

I've been waiting for this day for so long. My new baby is here!!!!! AutoEXE 20b!!!!!
"So, you know that motor that was almost done, well back to day one." -my roommate

Thanks to Brian (Japan2LA) for hooking me up with this!

 

i knew it! it had your name all over it

 

Does this mean I have to keep my car and put a 4 rotor in it...LOL...

 

Yes.

 

keep that torque converter, we can put an auto in it so you can granny shift an auto!

lol, j/k.

 

haha you called it.


Jan, yes!!! Then you have to bring it down to Cali and hang out with Carol and I @ Sevenstock.


Ben, you ready to do this!?!?!

 

soon, i have the summer rush coming in still so am getting backed up on work finally so trying to be sure i have space for everything. long projects take up a bit of room as i only have half as much space as i used to at the old shop you can imagine it is pretty cramped with 4 cars in the shop most days.

around mid to late summer i should be able to take it in and get started on the conversion. try to get as much of the rest sorted before then so i can have all the bolt ons ready to reassemble. it will take a bit of time reassembling the car from scratch, i never expected it to turn into a real ground up buildup from the basic rebuild that it started out as. i don't think you did either, lol.

 

Goddammit... I guess I need to step it up now too.

 

Ben, I think you're right. lol I'm going to try and simplify it as much as possible. No P/S or A/C... that should help a bit.

Nader, just go 4 rotor bro. haha

Do either of you talk to the other Mike from sac with the RX3?

 

Don't tempt me...

I haven't talked to Mike in a while...

 

Looking for some feedback on a dogbox. Does anyone know if PPG makes one for the FD?
Edit, looking to eventually track the car, no 1/4 mile stuff here.
