Probably not for me. I'm planning on staying up late for the first F1 race of the season. :tup:


Oh, how are your halos holding up?

Great weather today. The wife and I enjoyed a nice lunch on the Black Star Coop patio and some cocktails at Taco Flats afterwards :yum:

Awww, man. That sucks. What brand are you using? Is it the Chinese brand? The good thing about Oracle is that they have a lifetime warranty relatively a pretty good brand and made here in the states. Come to think of it, the first LED strip I had from Oracle had a couple of loose LED transistors on the back of some of the LEDs; those are the ones that went out. Michael, who did the work, and I didn't think anything of it with the loose transistors or we would have had it replaced it at that time. I noticed the replacement strip was secure. I haven't had any issues since. Michael also mentioned another company out of California that made their own LEDs that were even more durable but also as pricey if not more than the Oracles.

Mind if I ask where you two (Athlon and Pint) had your Halo's done? Was it down at Houston Halo's, or a DIY project? Also, about what was the cost if I may ask?

I've been thinking about getting it done.

Pintsize725 03-17-2015 06:56 AM
Houston Halos. Though I'm not quite sure I'd recommend them after my repair. There's a crap load of glue hanging out around the inside (engine side) edges of my lights. JARblue tried GooGone on a spot but it looked like it was discoloring the plastic.

Yeah whatever they used to seal up the headlights was never cleaned up properly. It looks terrible. And the paint its on does not appear to be protected by a clear coat. Just about any solvent will take off the finish with enough rubbing pressure.

Morbid370Z 03-17-2015 08:08 AM
That's terrible. :( I've heard really good things about them, may want to take pics and let them know?

Sorry to hear about the crappy repair. Hopefully it gets sorted out one way or the other.

That's the thing, I'm not sure if it was done right because he was in an hurry and at a family members house or because he initially gave me a deal and then had to do a repair on it. I just know I'm not happy with it.

Ok, so 5:30 or so to reserve spaces. Sounds good :tup:

I graduated in 1999. I thought Carlos was in the same class as me. I'm guessing David was a couple of years back.

I'll probably hang in the bar for a bit snacking on queso. We all know that we're going to talk about mods done on the cars. :icon17:

We will be watching it at the Lakeline location in NW Austin. The tickets I reserved are already spoken for. The theater is showing seats available, at the same showing as ours (7:05pm), in the first three rows. If you purchase today, you are more than welcome to join us at the bar ahead of time to talk shop and what not.

enrique_370 03-29-2015 04:34 PM
Well front seats dont suit me. But I will prob get out of work at 5:30 and I can headover to meet some people. I would love to hear the Fast Intention exhaust in person heard it sounds nice.

Pintsize725 04-02-2015 10:14 AM
If anyone knows someone who might want the last ticket, have them show up!

Here are some parking spots that might workout for us.

Lol! Was that you going to lakeline mall behind me? I live right across the street so I'll be three in like 10 minutes.

LordLongsword 04-02-2015 05:19 PM
Probably. Went and got my car wet really quick to wash off the filth. Very disappointed. ��

Pintsize725 04-02-2015 05:30 PM
We're moving spots to avoid other cars. Come out here lol

Pintsize725 04-02-2015 05:44 PM
Kitten, we're off to the right when you're pulling in.

enrique_370 04-02-2015 07:25 PM
dang it I just got out of work. Sux I missed to meet everyone.

enrique_370 04-07-2015 09:26 PM
Where do most of y'all take your z's to get maintenance done. I am thinking about getting my transmission fluid changed and engine oil changed. Clutch is a little rough on 1st and 2nd. If you all can tell me what liquids you always use that would be cool as well. (I have done searches but it is crazy to be honest.) Once I hear Pintsize725 exhaust ill prob buy FI tdx catback :) Thanks for the info.
