I've got it raised as high as it will go but still have the need of an extra boost. I probably should not be driving this car due to the risk of accident and death, but dammit I will go out being happy! :tup:

yah, i saw an ad in the foresale for the DWS going 800. i was like REALLY??! LOL :rofl2:

i suppose i can try selling the DW's in stock size for like $500 local? good thread left probably like 90%. and unlike that ad, i have done hard launches many times... :p but no burn outs. hahaha.

but then again these are decent tires so i should probably just use them up.

Meh, I'm just going to quit whining like a little girl and take them to the nearest Tire Rack recommended location. This will be no problem to just throw in the back of my wife's Xterra. They will need to have a damage checklist so we are in agreement on the lack of damage the wheels have at present before I let them work on it.

When I had wheels on my civic I had to have them serviced, I would cover them completely with blue painters tape. Not only would it help protect the wheels from damage, but when I got the wheels back I could see if they had damaged the tape at all. It saved me one time cause I pointed it out to the service manager of the tire kingdom I went to (never again, I hate that store) before they did my wheels. When I got them back there was a pretty decent sized scratch on one of the wheels, tape all torn up, so I called him over and showed him. He tried to talk s way out of it but I ended up getting them to pay for the wheel to get fixed.

I see I've missed a lot since posting my hover Z pic. Stupid work always gets in the way of the forums.

It's Friday so as a treat to myself, I'm taking the twisty way home.

GaleForce 04-27-2012 01:04 PM

Mr.alcheng, the weather is starting to shape up here. The air was so brisk that I thought we were getting snow this morning. Now the sun has come out. Sharpened my lawn mower blade and gave the lawn a cut. Might take the Z out for a quick drive later.


Mr.kenchan, I'm going to have to keep an eye on my Prima Hydro. Weird that you found black stuff in there. Also I'll have to try ut the RC motor cleaner, it has never crossed my mind. Good idea :tup:
