double post ftl

sell me a pair of spacers only

Where you been hiding jason?

Hey sorry, I just saw your post.

I was hoping to sell them as a set, but Im not opposed to seperating them. Which ones where you looking to buy?

Hey Julio. How are things? The car still running as smoothly as the day it was tuned?

Ive been hiding at UTEP. I was trying to get seating into the medical program at UT since I had finished all my premed prereq's but things changed a bit. Thats basically it. Just work, school, and home for the time being.

You guys still meeting up every month?

Hey man, Sent you an email and a pm. LMK something soon.

Funny I find this thread as I'm leaving el paso for 9 months, are the rebuilders around here pretty good on cost?

Del Motorsports. End of story. Dont trust any of the other shops with your car. Del might take a little longer, but you will know your shit is right.

i trust myself, dont know about you Tim LOL

FJ has my vote!

Lol well sorry some of us aren't seasoned on the rotary yet. I gotta fix the leak coming from my pedistal

El_whatever her name is isnt "seasoned" on rotaries either. Without google he/she/it cant tell you how to set endplay.........

but he sure can wear a pair of heels...

Quite angry at the lack of progress the shop has been able to do since i have left. Is there anyone that can provide me with some contact info for Del? the phone number on whitepages.com is no longer in service, and an email address would be preferable if possible. Just want my FD done right, and with as little headaches as possible..... :\

9154944091. Tell him McKinley with the FD that caught on fire sent you.

ASE Certified.......

thanks for the Number, does he have an email that he uses frequently? (easier to email than call from out here in the sandbox...)

not that i'm aware of. I've always just called him but i understand i just got back at the end of June. Hes a good dude though and definitely knows his shit.

ok thanks dude, ill try and give him a call when i can. What has been your exp with him as far as major service work (rebuild/porting)?

He redid my engine after the fire in august. It was a little slow mostly because of waiting on parts and everytime he would take something else apart he would find something wrong, but I got my shit back in great condition. All the oil leaks that it had before it went in that insurance wasn't suppose to cover he fixed along with all the gaskets and even pressure washed the engine bay and underside of the car while everything was out. It came back looking great and he put a lot of detail into it that he didn't have to do. He's a good guy.

thats outstanding to hear. looks like he might have a new VR FD to be working on in the near future. BTW are there any FD owners lookin to buy a CF widebody front end? fenders and bumper. got some border fenders and i wont be needing the widebody anymore

not many of us FD owners out here mate lol. FJD has one but its immaculate as is and im a fan of stock body with a lip.

im doing one that should be running next week, pretty good looking one, wee need a group picture soon

Just a FD group picture or is my 4x4 Maverick invited as well....??? Cant wait to see what tin and rotor come up with after this post!

Lol I've been wanting to get a run up to White Sands for some awesome pics. I've got my stalker cam all ready to go anytime y'all wanna set someting up. I dont see why the Maverick couldnt come, as long as you can keep the damn thing running. O and no high heels this time. Might not fair to well in the sand... haha

^

That was....well ok :) My shit doesnt break down...you must be talking about the caca brown 1st gen again!

o so you were lying about why you lost against me then? *cough* carb issues *cough* its alright if your shits slow man no worries lol. Dont have to lie to be cool.

idk what y'alls deal is. I daily my car and give it hell EVERY DAY. running just fine. But when my shit goes, it fucking goes lol. I recall a little over $7k about a month ago because of a fire lol.

^

This coming from someone who did not even know know what a TPS is until today. I wont even bother asking if he's ever tried building a motor...ANY motor...lawnmower, weed eater, model airplane...

Lol

haha very true ask him which way you turn the wrench to loosen the bolts under the car lol.

With a witness...I rest my case.....

I dont need to know what a TPS is with a carb...funny how I can whoop both you and Tin in a race with old ass technology! :scratch:

lets do a real race. from a dig. my full weight car with a/c and 2 sub woofers in it vs the maverick. hope your running 12's because next time i run i will be. Bring your skirt and heels. I need a pretty lady to cheer me on after i beat you. I'll bring you a nice shade of lipstick and some ky as well.

I dont recall me and the smurf racing. Are you comparing my first run on this setup, cold nevember with no track prep, 14" stock wheels on my car and granny shifting a 13.9/107mph to your year round consistent 14.7-14.9 runs?

Its all good man (using the term loosely) you'll get your chance to "whoop my ass"....dont forget ur heels...ur gonna wear those a lot!

well folks....after a lot of requests via txt messages from el-whatever-her-name-is....i will set the record straight as to whether "el" is faster or not.....

here goes...(from this point forward i'll pick a random chic name for el_whatever-her-name-is....Ricky fits the bill....)

"ricky" has repeatedly argued with me that his car is currently (key word) faster than mine.
I am here to say that yes, his car is "currently" faster than mine and here's why.

his consistent runs of (corrected from previous posts) 14.2/110mph are true. "ricky" is using this as a platform on which to argue that he/she/its faster than me on my last run. this is also true...on my last time out at the track i was simply testing a freshly built diff and really didnt give a flying rats ass about time, (14.9, 15.3, 15.7 to be exact) so YES, based on that "rick" IS indeed faster.
now keep in mind this is his best recorded run. my best recorded run was my previously posted 13.9/1/07mph, which is granny shifted on a cold november night with wastegate vacuum line not even hooked up while i had on 14" tires.

as i previously stated, "ricky" IS also CURRENTLY (there's that key word again) faster, WAY FASTER, than me....
however, once i put in a new return line and put my gas tank back in and my car back on the ground, i will sort out some issues, do a few fun runs and let "rick" do his famous traction bar slap run against me....since we have really never ran heads up.

so there ya go folks...."ricky" IS faster than a car whose gas tank sits on the floor waiting for a fuel system upgrade......in comparison...hes fucking supersonic next to my car in its current state!!!

i await his/her/its rebuttal.

(let the shit talking begin!!!!)
:lol::lol::lol::soapbox::fawk:

I admit i'm slow. I should be the one to beat lol.

Thank you for the clarification and no shit talking is needed by me at this time; your comment is now finally full of fact with one exception. You last time was a 17.8 something....(ref post #116)

Yeah "real slow"
