:tup:

I got some tint yesterday. Sometimes I feel like I should of gone a little darker but I am trying to not give the cops any more reasons to pull me over.

That is a nice look.

You are right, though. Tint is a bad reason to get pulled over. Next thing you know they run you, find outstanding warants, search your car and find the loaded Glock under the passenger seat, see the open Budwieser in the cup holder and you get cuffed. As you are being put in the back of the police car the tow truck driver rigs your Z up and scrapes the be-jesus out of your front spoiler.

Be careful in CA with how much you tint.

Drop my car off at FORGED PERFORMANCE for a roll cage. Have back in about a week. Can't wait.

Exactly! I have been running 5% on the last three cars and have countless fix it tickets which I normally just pay the 175 bucks in stead of fixing it. I thought maybe I will go lighter and see if I get hassled less. CHP has been on my case lately.

dang... :tup: your car is going to be a true track car, huh?

That's right. Still trying to keep some streetablitiy to it though. Maybe one day full out track. It's hard to imagine not being able to street your car just out of the blue if you wanted to.

hahaha. :D yah, but you gotz your FJ and trailer, etc you're definitely on the right path to earning a full track machine. :tup:

Yep. Tracking is so fun.

i bet. the only serious track time ive got is in 1/10th scale RC racing every weekends when i lived in LA. :icon17: hahaha. lol

i had like 40 sets of tires at one time i'd use up like toilet paper, about 25 different motors, 5 chassis, etc. :)

Looks great! What percentage did you go with?


That sounds great Spohn! Say, how much weight have you been able to reduce from stock?

That's kick a$s, will it be removable?

Awesome. I've seen guys at these competitions pull up in small inclosed trailors for this. Talk about serious.

Not sure over all. I'd hate to even guess. My car really needs to be cornered balanced again. Then I could find out. Seats are about 35-40lbs, spare tire 35lbs, interior pieces, Cats are gone (running test pipes), windshield reservoir, and more little things. So it's really hard to say in the end. But the cage is going to add so not sure till later.
No it won't be. All welded in. Then I still have to paint it.

I went to give her a proper bucket wash this afternoon because it's in the upper 60's and really nice. Wouldn't you know as I was rinsing her off and unfurling the hose to get more length, I look back towards the house and see a large plume of water where last i checked, there wasn't one! :eek:

I walked over to where the plume of water is spouting and realize that the dad-blessed spigot had snapped off! I'm all like oHHhhh Sh!t! :wtf2: It's a good thing we have a shutoff valve just inside the garage, so acting quickly I kill the water.

Unfortunately, this is not something i have the skill set to repair so I'm sitting out in my garage waiting for the plumber dude to show up, which is going to cost at minimum $125!

FML

mr.happy- doh! :eek: that sucks. :( hope you get that fixed soon and bill isn't too big.

my water spigot is inside the garage so i have this hose winder reel thingie next to it. which means even if i yanked real hard the hose reel would take the blunt and not the spigot. not sure how your hose is setup, but something that might help in the future? :)
