Most people find that 3K is worth the Sport Rays, Akebona Brakes, Spoiler, SRM, etc. Im pretty sure those items on their own will cost more like 5k.

I'm back from my exam, why is every time I walk out of there I feel like I took an exam on advanced Japanese.... Somehow I passed the first 2 parts with high scores, hopefully my trend doesnt stop.

Many audiophiles to this day swear that there's no reproducing a good vinyl played on a quality system.

Here's what you need:

They say that alright. Me? It's BS. Hisses, pops, crackles -- no thanks. even on the best truntable with the highest quality cartridge/needle you get all the junk along witht he sound.

High end CD player or FLK file with a decent DAC plugged into a clean, powerful amp is hard to beat.

I didn't say I was in agreement with them mind you! Yes, I'll Take a flac file ANY day! :tup:

That looks sharp, Mr. LunaZ.

brucelidat 07-02-2012 09:22 PM

looking very nice, LunaZ. You do the wrapping yourself?

LunaZ 07-02-2012 09:28 PM

Nah. I had the guy that did my tint do it for me.
He's a friend and fellow racer, so I get a little bit of a hookup. Although, I have to say, the rear piece was a two-man job, so I earned my hookup ;)

I had my fangs and valance painted, but you're starting to make me wonder if I should have gone with a wrap, nice!

kenchan 07-02-2012 10:33 PM

hey luna- looks great! :tup: i like how your installer wrapped all the way to the bottom of the rear valance so that you dont see any of the white. :)

good job, mr.zman! :tup: hope your trend continues so you are fluent in japanese. :icon17: hahaha

mr.gale- here's the lapel mic. my buddy insisted i try this on the gopro as his buddies were getting good audio. i dont know if it can withstand our car environments as our application is pretty loud... will find out running my HU test. :)

it is unfortunately a mono mic that comes with a stereo (tip ring sleeve) connector. since it uses a LR44 button battery like your audiotechnica pro24 i will need to remember to turn it on/off each time. :icon17:

i dont know how many sessions i can get out of one battery nor does the mic have a LED indicator showing whether there's enough juice or not. LOL :facepalm: will find out tomorrow.

It's not always the size of your knob but how it fits in your hand. :leghump:

Mr.kenchan is complaining his hand got slippery on his current knob thus he can't hold it properly, therefore he thinks a big knob will fit better in his palm.... :bowrofl:

So, I worked out tonight... Then smoked a cigar and drank some scotch.
