I like strippers. I'm not sure why. Maybe it's the boobies. Maybe it's the fact that you get what you pay for. I hate wasting money on women, well some women. But really, I think it's the boobies... and a good lap dance.

I propose... we cruise over there tom night and check it out just for the hell of it instead of standing around all night. I grew up over there... parents still live nearby. There use to be a nice little road nearby we use to race on.

That'll work. Is that the Char-Grill without the inside part though? That would suck come winter.

Well, there you go, haha. I guess my vote doesn't really matter much though cause Bizkitz is gonna be movin' his made-from-scratch-every-morning buns on to Moody, haha.


I took off my UIM tonight, and basically just started getting ready to swap out the FPR. I took off the coils, and after removing some vacuum lines, a fuel line, and disconnecting all the relays on the rats nest, I realized I don't really need to take all that apart to swap the FPR, haha. I'm going to swap it first and see if it fixes anything. When I was putting the coils back in I noticed a broken wire on one of the connectors, the one going to the leading coil. So I fixed that. I also noticed only part of a gasket on (I'm not sure what the piece is called, it's under the UIM and attaches to the UIM via some sort of mechanism), so that could be a leak right there. I smelled the vacuum line on the FPR and didn't smell any fuel though.

Wow. I went to bed at 3 last night and for some reason woke up at 8. I'm rockin' 5 hours of sleep kiddies. Why don't I go back to bed? The rallycross at 10. I'm supposed to be up by 9, but...I have no reason why I shouldn't get an extra 45 minutes of sleep. Damnit. Anyway, yeah.

Hey guys I just want to let you know that I'm still alive. I have graduation today and then I'm going on vacation to California for a month. Then I will be installing a turbo upgrade on my Turbo II which will consist of

T04S 60 trim .70 A/R compressor, .96 A/R P-trim hotside
HKS cast manifold, undivided
Apexi Power FC with commander & datalogit, using the Banzai adapter kit

and once I get all that debugged:

Rx7store Extreme Fuel system--stainless fuel lines, FPR, 720/1680 injectors
Some kind of electronic boost controller, probably AEM but not sure.

I will be running nothing but race gas. It should do low 400s at least with my porting. Expect to see this running realistically by late July.

I will see everyone in about 6 weeks!

zomg I have so much to read! lol

Hope the airshow goes well this weekend. I wish I could go.

Only two weeks until we close on the house... then we have some work before we can move in. It will be good when we can finally say we don't live with my parents. Housewarming party details and RSVP info will be posted this week sometime.

Waiting to hear back from the new job still... ugh... never been so stressed over this many things at one time. I had my second interview on Tuesday. Never had to kiss so much *** as I do to get this new position. It will be worth it when I get the call saying they are hiring me. The pay is astronomical for a college student... but that's only because it's not entry level. David and I can really use an increase in our income right now... but can't we all? I'm trying not to be too excited about the position until I know something for sure... but it's so hard! All the responsibilities they showed me are so cool. Finally a job that pays well that I will enjoy!

Thanks! Where in Garner do you live?? We're right off a certain road that runs somewhat parallel to Timber Drive. You'll have to come over when me and my girlfriends have slumber parties.

I have one... but it's still attached to an ugly yellow car. I'd let you borrow it if it would work for you, but poor Queso doesn't have LSD, so I don't think it will work for you. Tech days at our house starting late July, early August. (Gotta pave part of the driveway first, so we have some more workspace.)

Speaking of Queso, Phil, your map cracked me up. Gotta move our cheddar icon to the south side of Raleigh when we move.

EDIT: PS- Queso, Squirrel (the FB), and the GSX will all be transported to the new house sometime in June... we have too many project cars!! (Not that it's a bad thing...........................) It will be awesome to have more room to get our projects done and RUNNING.

Somehow I don't doubt that you have a guitar that values around the resale value of an FD.

Well lets see...

After Timber is the shoppng center and the next right is a short little road that runs along the backside to the movie place.

The next right is a short straight that leads back up to the road above.

The next right after that is Vandora Springs Road...

*EDIT* How the hell did I miss the girls and slumber parties part!?!?!?!? Ain't nobody going to get no sleep if I show up.

We are also keeping in mind some of the farther people too, which is exactly why we are working on figuring out exactly where people live. The meets will continue to be where they are until we've spotted a new place and have done everything to ensure that can meet there.
If the location works for everyone, y'all are more than welcome to chill at our house for meets... all the restaurants on 401 are around the corner from the house. You guys can get a feel for the drive and let me know what you think when you come out here in June. I guess it's more convenient to meet at a food joint, but just a suggestion. We have plenty of parking for larger turnouts... or we can caravan to our house after meets for those of us who like to hang out til after the food joint closes. LOL

Well, our house is in a pretty easy place to find... not sure how comfortable I am to give all my secrets away. (and all our tools and valuables to the trolls that come in this thread all the time). Too many creeps in this world.
