I have my coilovers and intake on. My diverter valve is so loud now that I won't need an atmospheric BOV to be happy. Mine actually sounds like a Blitz super sound BOV. The coilovers are having some rubbing issues. Hopefully get that straightened out this week...I'm at the college now getting ready to goto class...or maybe getting ready to sleep in class, hahahaha.
Oh yeah, I found these and I <3 them. I figured since I've dumped so much into suspension why not go baller status with wheels too?

There is a possibility that in the upcoming couple of weeks I can give my 1.8T Jetta to my younger sister and go get a 01 GTI VR6 of my choice. Some of the parts I have now could transfer onto the VR6 no problem. Some of the stuff like the downpipe I'd have to sell because of course the VR6 is a n/a 6cyl and the 1.8T is the I4 turbo. Though my GReddy G2 cat-back would bolt up perfectly, my coilover suspension on the other hand most likely would not work out. So if that change happens I'll be selling some parts. The GTI is 5spd and leather whereas the 1.8T is neither, hmmmmmm.....

Back from Drivers Edge

2004-10-10T04:25:50Z

It was alot of fun with the exception of Pete wrecking his beautiful 350Z. It was funny because I somehow escaped from a cop and a ticket on the way home from Texas World Speedway. There was thisdumb ho in the fast lane just pacing with the other cars and not doing anything. She wouldn't move so when I saw the opportunity I downshifted to third and squeezed it hard while going two lanes over and I shifted to fourth and was on it for a a second or so and let off at 95-100mph. There was a slow lane of traffic to the right and faster moving traffic in the left two lanes with that dumb ho far back. Then I realized this was my exit so I slammed the brakes and cut through the slow lane to get onto the offramp and within three seconds this cop went flying past me in the lane I was hauling ass in with his lights on. Yay for having a silver car that can blend in!

Here's the pictures

Went flying today, teh fun!
and tomorrow I pick up my new 3" cat-back then study for big psychology exam monday.

!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

2004-09-29T10:12:02Z

Well I decided to go with that Rieger front bumper, now to find some sideskirts I like and maybe a rear apron. I'm waiting for that guy on the G2 to contact me back so I can go pick it up. I ordered the HID's yesterday. Decided to go with the 6K watt kit besides the kit and exhaust I guess I'll pick up some eye brows to go with the kit to finish off the accents on the front end. I decided that I'll redo the chrome VW badges on the rear, remove the JETTA and 1.8T badge. I'm going to paint the bigger VW badge a glossy black and get the beatle "Turbo" badge, which is almost identical as to the Porsches, only sleeker. and paint that a glossy black before it goes on. More stuff coming soon.

Blah, cars are so expensive. Going to get get the HId's today and GRedyy G2 3" cat-back later this week. Up next is the 3" downpipe, 3" hi-flo cat, and intake. GIAC is coming down from Dallas this weekend to do ECU flashes. I wonder if I should do it.it's a 35hp and 81ftlbs gain. $475 though.

my friend johnny from corpus who I've known from forums for years came to houston this weekend for the dyno so I finally got to meet him. We went to taco cabanna at 4:30am and on the way there we got a couple runs in. It was me vs his full BPU Supra. I was in the 1.8T. from a 40 roll I had half a car on him up to about 80 and then he began to pull. It was a fun night and I was supposed to goto the dyno but I slept in. Oh well, off to play D2

Strange day

2004-09-18T03:11:31Z

Well I slept in, I had class at 8:05 and woke up at 8:10, I hurried my ass to the class and made it in the door by 8:17. I also went to sleep at 4:45am so how did I make it the college? I don't know. Then came home and I was chatting on AIM with a friend from back in Florida and then he told me that he came out of the closet, damn, not something I'd expect, but I'm respectful of his decision. Now it always makes sense because he too had a fly ass car but I always remember with him hanging out with other male car enthusiasts and never saw a female running around with him. It kinda makes sense now. Then later that day I find out yet another friend has come out and said he's bisexual. This has been a very strange day. I didn't feel good so I went to sleep around 2:00pm and woke up around 8:30. Made myself some food that tasted like ass, these frozen burritos with grinded up meat, smelled like dog food. After that I went over to best buy to get the transporter for my collection and they didn't have it. This is the THIRD time I've gone to this new best buy near my house and they don't have it. What a sorry ass excuse of a store. Well I'm back home now and I guess I'll go play D2 for a bit and then get ready for a friend's graduation party at kartzone tomorrow.

Time for a new car

2004-09-11T00:41:53Z

The ongoing search is a headache. Tonight I'm going to the SW meet to meet my friend Bernard and test out his SRT Stage II turbo IS300. Mike and I have the equipment to fab our own exhaust header. I might just borrow Bernard's and do that. Just need something with a T4 flange and an external wastegate. Mmmmm, a TO4E would work well and utilizing the stock fuel pump and tossing in the 550cc injectors sitting in the garage. Either a Haltech stand along or a VPC will need to go on at that point. But at the end of all of this. I could get myself a lowmileage 2JZ-GTE with tranny and harness. Though it wouldn't be as much initial power as a n/a-t it'd have more potential. Just not sure as of yet. I still can't figure out which graphic I like more, the new style or the old..

the old:

the new:

I like both, the tribal is something different but the original is nice and simple. I may just have a new design drawn up for the next car. Hehe.

meh

2004-09-09T20:57:15Z

Well the Jetta has the new head on it, should have ported and grinded it, oh well. I need to buy a machinery. Other than that it's running decently. No more pinging. I raced a Lexus SC400 V8 with a few bolt ons, pulled three and a half cars. The later on ran a black Mustang 5.0 GT and pulled half a car on it. It's not 100% but it's running better than it was. Last night I washed the white Supra and removed all the decals. The car looks so naked now. I don't know when the guy is coming to buy it but if it's much longer it's going back on the market. I'll have to take some pics to show how weird it looks now. Well I'm going to play Diablo II for a bit then goto the usual car meet tonight around 8:30, maybe find some more fun runs. :) But before that I have a photoshoot.

finally feeling better. I've gotten back into playing Diablo II. Something in my life besides cars :P College is going okay, kinda busy now. I'm thinking of getting a job at this upscale restaurant where some other guy on the forum got his at. I need another job because I'm barely making enough now to cover my car payment and insurance. It'll be nice to have some cash in my pocket again and then buy another car. :)

what a busy week, college kicked my ass, but now I have a free evening for a change. I went down to the warehouse with the intention to get a S13 front clip for a 92 hatchback but I end up getting ready to drop a downpayment on an S14 Silvia. Funny how things work out. Well, atleast this car is cheaper than the MKIV was so probability of getting it is much greater. I just need to take care of legalizations and this could be a done deal...

been a while since I have updated

2004-08-23T04:50:35Z

Well I met a girl at my college a few weeks ago, we've been dating 3-4 times a week and gone to the beach and today we went to a baseball game. I also sold the Jspec MKIV Supra hardtop to my friend shiv back in Miami. Now I better get to sleep because I have a glorious day tomorrow starting the new fall semester at the college. fun, good night.

hardpipes.com still isn't bringing in enough money to pay for car notes. Well I guess i'll be applying at the local dealerships to do work while I am in college, atleast I have only a 16 credit hour semester. I have classes M-F. ouch, oh well, atleast only two courses per day.

Last weekend I got the opportunity to drive my friend's SR20 powered 240SX. The stock clutch was kinda funky and didn't grab real fast. It was quick but not as fast as I had hoped, but then again all the cars I have been driving were Supras and Datsuns. Inline six is nice but harder on gas. Hmm, I can get the S13 front clip for a great price. I even got the one for my friend's car that I drove. Plus I could use another friend's auction license to go buy an S13 at an extremely cheap price. I want an S13 hatch...

school owns me

2004-07-30T21:13:34Z

I've been so busy I haven't had much time to be around computers. The car search continues. When looking at a n/a 1993 MR2 in immaculate condition my friend David PM'd me saying his car is up for sale because he got a new job and wants to go for a 350Z enthusiast model now. Money isn't a relative issue because my friend is willing to let me finance it. Then Darin finds me another car. It's a white MK3 out in Georgetown. Has a single turbo 1JZ in it with 850cc injectors on it, not a completed car. And it's $7,000. They're saying it only needs tuning and some parts installed that come with it. I just wonder why a car that could sell for $18,000 be listed at 7 and supposidly make all this power with only a little work, but still hasn't sold yet. My firned Andrew is telling me that he just isn't anxious to sell and his wife is pissed and that's why it needs to be sold. Though I don't have much experience with 700rwhp+ cars. As good as this other MK3 sounds, I don't want to kill myself.

Friday night I was out with Jason test driving stuff at DonMcGill Toyota and then went to Saltgrass steakhouse. Then we rode around looking for car meets. We decided to drive to the starbucks on westheimer and 610. Not much there except for that car crew, rIce-Motion. On the way back we passed that one guy I hate, HoeBag, so just to fuck with him. I stuck me hand out and gave him a thumbs down and it looked like he was trying to chase us. He never caught back up to us. Overall, that was hilarious. I'm feeling better for the most part but still shitty. Hopefully I'll get better soon. I've got to finish cleaning this place and setting up my aquarium today.

still sick, hope I feel better by tomorrow for the BBQ

2004-07-21T18:46:46Z

Tomorrow is the 529 BBQ. Hardpipes crew will be there as well as Neutral Zero and I'm getting some girls and others to come out. Plus some Supras from SE side of town will be coming out. Seems like it's going to be a big turn out. My head is feeling a bit better today than it did the past couple days...now I wonder if I should kill myself trying to play catch up in the summerII algebra course. I already missed three days and probably not going to make it tomorrow...fock, I wonder if it's too late to withdraw

being sick sucks

2004-07-20T22:11:50Z

I hate being being sick,I've missed two days of class, I am so owned. Now I'm fkn tired.

fucking owned again

2004-07-18T19:58:23Z

Well on Friday night I went to go see some friends. I knew one of them was homosexual and had a white civic and he respected the fact that I was heterosexual. This was because Jason fucked up and didn't meet me at the best buy on westheimer and HW6 like we discussed. So I called the other guy with the civic and made my way to where he was hanging out at. Now I don't know this area where he was at but I do know now. He was at a cafe off of Westheimer and Rosemont. I was told by another friend that this area is "turbo gay." Well long story short. We hung out for a bit. then he needed to drop someone off. So I rode with him and when I got back my car was gone. Turns out they had signs for "unauthorized vehicles will be towed." I just didn't see any. Well after trying to find out where they towed my car and having some guy old enough to be my grandfather hit on me I found the location of my car. I got a ride from another friend and After getting lost on 59 for a couple hours we finally found the warehouse where my car was kept. I couldn't get my car out because of a withdrawal limit on my credit card. Fucking beautiful. On the way home we were on 610 and out of nowehere this drunk ass hit the side of my friend's car. And he tries to run and we got the plate and vehicle description. Reported it and filed a police report. I didn't get home til about 4:30am. I got my car the next day and after cursing out the bitch at the impound lot because they were trying to stick me with all sorts of lame ass charges. I got out of some but for the most part I was screwed.

LAST NIGHT
Then I decide NOT to go back to meet these people again because of the last incadent. I goto dinner with the family and I was bored so I decided to goto the OC meet. That went fairly good. A couple hours later we all got bored and I was driving Chino's 1JZ powered SC300 around (got_trd' car). That was a real fun car to drive. Then Chino's fiance gets stuck and doesn't know how to drive David's Celica GTS cause it was a standard and wouldn't start. I drove it back to the OC for her. Then CarConnection came over and asked the guy with the Celica if he wanted run a white mustang. He accepted and I rode with Chino's fiance in her cavalier with my friend Mike (ON3GO). And about six to seven others from h-i.com We drove down 1960 and got on 249 and when we went behind a bank I noticed a cop sitting at the traffic signal. He turned in and started following us. Then Chino's fiance flashed the celica to not race and that there was a cop. bout two seconds later up ahead where CarConnection was and the Mustang. Four cruisers turned on their lights and set up a road block. Then the one behind us turned on his lights and boxed us in. We were harassed by the cops for a while. The bad part is that they were popping the hoods of all the cars and looking for any illegal stuff. Thank God they didn't see the nitrous on the Mustang. We sat on the curb for about 45 minutes getting eaten up by ants and mosquitos and shit. Fucking sucked. The bad part is that one of the guys had two warrants out. But after getting cursed and chewed out by the cop for about 20 minutes. He told us to get the fuck out of there and threw all of our DL's on the ground. After I got home I damn sure didn't tell my parents why I was so late but damn. I don't feel like driving for a while.
