Not my car. I agree with the "Go Tigers!" statement though. Started my college career there before I went into the military. A LOT before your time though. I was there in '86.

You went to college in Detroit?

DM, you're only a few days away, you gotta find something to do to calm your nerves..

We are talking Clemson, not Detroit. You can see the tiger paw in the window and the license plate surround has "Clemson Tigers" on it.

Yes, the VTAK made an appearance. I had to ensure it was included.

eastwest2300 · 07-28-2013, 07:52 PM

Nice!! seeing that made my day! Thanks Jon!

So some good news and some bad news:

Bad news: My japanese coworker (z-enthusiast) will not be able to attend one of our meets because he's taking part in a work event called the President's Circle the weekend before our sales conference. It's basically an awards ceremony with corporate execs for the top salespeople in the company so I'm thinking he won't be able to attend. He'll be in Hot Springs VA - no idea where that is.

Good news: He's ordering my caliper covers/wheel hubs/whatever they are today.

Henry can I get a ride in the "vtak"?

Hey Cody, the PS3 is all boxed up and ready to rock and roll bro.

dmhenderson · 07-29-2013, 01:24 PM

More fun from GTM. The bolt & bracket that hold the factory oil cooler on have to be swapped out and although GTM was well aware of this before the build started, they didn't provide it (literally, just a freaking bolt). When the shop called to ask them about it, they basically said "here's the nissan part you want, good luck".

The shop is mad at GTM. I'm unhappy but what can you do right? Can't even start running oil lines until we have this bolt so...

tl;dr: New estimated completion date: Fri 8/2 or Sat 8/3. All for a $9.00 bolt and I may be out for Fairfax this Saturday as well depending on how quickly the part shows up.

dmhenderson · 07-29-2013, 01:41 PM

I should have some pics soon. Everything is done except for the oil lines (and tune, obviously)

b1adesofcha0s · 07-29-2013, 01:47 PM

Should have just kept the twin charger....

dmhenderson · 07-29-2013, 02:05 PM

It was a G-37 kit. Not to say I couldn't have sold it but I'm not a thief.
