My berk was delivered to my house today

Brought it down to my mechanics to keep in his garage until he puts it on my car

He's super busy so it might be a few days

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! :happydance:

Thank you, Mr. Kenchan :tup:

Right on, you are going to dig the Berks and groove on them when installed. Far out. :icon17:

I seriously can't wait to get it on. The suspense is killing me, if only I got it yesterday it would be my Z there getting the exhaust on instead of my DD getting its breaks changed lol

so did you work on the clutch spring yet? :icon17:

Tonight I'll be going to the local Z meet. I'm going to see if I can change it before I leave. Seems like it's a really small job so I don't see it being a problem.

DIY and you could be enjoying it tonight!!!

^^^ indeed! :D DIY the exhaust. should be pretty easy to do.

I don't have the tools needed to DIY :(

Plus my mechanic is a personal friend so he does right by me.

You dont have a socket set:confused:

I should rephrase, I have all the tools needed, but I can't be bothered to do it with how inundated I am at work because of Hurricane Irene claims.

Tools needed that I'm missing... Mental sanity

But knowing that you just installed your Berk exhaust personally should replace some of your sanity. Its seriously like six bolts I think. Took no time at all:tup:

I installed my in cabin air filter myself :ugh2:

oh yah, nick is a insurance guy so probably SUPER busy. and have to hear DMV-customer-types cry/bitch all day long of their sad stories while making their claims. talking about all sorts of tangents and not to the point of what needs to be fixed, etc. :mad:

that would drive one insane. i think best to let mechanic do it. :tup:

this is at the level of 'i clean my own furnace at home every fall.' :icon17:

I'll make sure I do my Post MAF tubes and drop-ins myself I swear! haha

^^
'i poured milk over my own cereal this am DIY'


WOOOO!! :rofl2: ;)

And uh...Fog light and shift knob install too!

I should open my own garage :tup:


And then close it :shakes head:

ok, the fog light can be pretty involved if wired up correctly to a switch inside the cabin and not tapped to the taillamp.

the shift knob can be very intimidating to remove stock knob if yours is stubborn like how mine was.... :icon14:

I'm tapping it off the license plate frame!

And I am sort of intimidated by the shift knob, but I have the correct tools and some extra hands to help..

I have a fog light and wire harness with the switch that goes between the seat heater switches. Both of these sit in their boxes in my garage because I am working up the gumption to perform the installation. Maybe this wekeend. Maybe not.

Yep it was easy -- 20 minutes.

I want that fog light sooo bad but dont feel like doin all the wiring and what not. But Im def gonna get to it. Along w the GTR start button, which I know is easy.

boo! :icon17:


sounds good. i bought 3 generic oem-looking rocker switches a member here found online. :) i wired one to my DVD player as its bypass switch, one to the rear fog lamp, and one to interior lighting. actually the interior lighting i dont even use since i dont motor my Z at night, but it's there as a placeholder for future options... like missile launcher/machine gun/popcorn/shiatsu massage/microwave/coffee pot, etc. :D

I like the missle launcher option best. :tiphat:

This about sums it up, Swifts are amazing for springs. My favorite part is how they changed the balance: so much more neutral and quicker turn in, especially when paired with sway bars.

for some reason i thought you'd like that, mr. onzedge. :tup:

I know I have yet to get my sways. Not sure what Im going with yet. What did you go w??? Driving impressions???

Edit..just saw your sig. How you like the Stillens?? Im thinkin either Hotchkiss, though I hear they may be stiff for street use or Whiteline.

^ stillen and eibach for street use

nick- :rofl2: LOL!

drove her to work...

and realize she needs a bath BAD!

Amen ^^^ Put it up on stands or ramps, on your back, unbolt, bolt, done.


Z action for me today... drove it to gym before work, then work, then back to gym at lunch, while giving a buddy a ride. He's looking for a sports car, used, for around 20k, any suggestions? Can be 2 or 4 seat, vert or not.

Anyways... enjoyed my drive immensely. Planning my 2nd oil change this week/weekend. Got my Amsoil in!!! I'm curious as to whether or not it will drop oil temps, but eh.... I also plan to wash Zena tonight, if I can squeeze it in between grilling for dinner, mowing, and possibly washing my Civic :(

S2000?
Used 370,135,335?

:tup:

:shakes head:

:roflpuke2:

looks like one needs kaiben. :icon17:

Ive heard the Whitelines are suitable for street as well, no?

BeachZTT did get the Swifts and it ate his rear tires within a month or two. So he got the SPC rear camber kit. Correct me if I'm wrong Russ!

Couldn't install the clutch helper spring. My shoulders are too broad to fit in the foot well...I'll have to get someone smaller to help me.
