As far as I know well be available after 2:30 on Saturday.

SS_Firehawk 10-21-2013 07:32 PM

Alright for Force Fed Racing 2wd dyno, it's $50 for three passes. Can't do single passes. They're pretty good about giving DRF files if they have time, they do give print outs. I'm still working on a time table. I'm shooting for 1pm-6pm for the whole thing, dyno, eat/drink/BS. By 6:00 I have to go to the show.

SS_Firehawk 10-21-2013 07:47 PM

Alright, not so good news. Remember how I said Force Fed ummm, usually work late nights? Well, they aren't opening up to 11:00...PM. I can still schedule it, but I'll have to wait till the concert is over with a "maybe" tired Wifey. Or it could be one of those all nighters.

Tazicon 10-21-2013 07:58 PM

Dang I was at C&C for a short time Saturday, but next weekend I am in Colorado. I want to meet you all some day!

Colorado is flooded, don't go there :stirthepot:

JENZ 10-21-2013 08:22 PM

Why are Mondays so exhausting???!!!!

Tazicon 10-22-2013 12:14 PM

My Monday was pretty bad but so far my Tuesday is off to a worse start. Thats not a bad thing as it can only get better from here.

Infamous 10-22-2013 04:26 PM

This weekend isn't gonna work for me. Especially at 11pm. Lol has Doug's gotten back to you?

SS_Firehawk 10-22-2013 07:19 PM

They haven't gotten back with me but they do charge more. Well, I'll probably try to convince the Wife to let me go there in the middle of the night to get the dyno done at least.

This weekend is turning into a wreck. I don't come in till 10pm on Friday, my Wife has tickets to some Halloween **** that we won't even be able go to because it closes at midnight, and I have to fly back out Sunday. I flay back home again... on Halloween night on a late *** flight so again, another day ruined by work. I have Drill all weekend and we'll be sleeping on site. So I won't be home while I'm home. I'll most likely have to work the week after in ATL which my birthday lands on that Friday. And if I try to fly, it's on my dime. I tried booking a 5pm flight that would have gotten me home at 7:25pm, but work said no. They opted for the $200 cheaper 6:00pm flight that doesn't get in till 10. I'm flying east coast to west coast btw, 7 hours of flight time with stops. Not sure if the pay is worth all the dumb **** anymore.

Tazicon 10-22-2013 07:40 PM

I took a 4 hour flight and I thought I was going to die. I am a bit hyper and do a LOT of pacing. being couped up on a plane sucks for me!

PedroVonSmith 10-22-2013 08:07 PM

I hate airports.... Most people are retarded and use every excuse to go into cattle mode.....

JENZ 10-22-2013 10:08 PM

We are available any time Saturday after 2:30pm. Late won't work for us due to Ryan's schedule on Sunday.

SS_Firehawk 10-24-2013 12:28 PM

Alright, good news! Doug's dyno can open up their dyno for us at 4pm! They charge $75 for 4-5 pulls, he says he'flexible so the price isn't bad if you just wanna do 3 . I'm thinking we meet there by 3pm. This way we can get the meet n greets out of the way and have some time to BS. If things end quickly, I'm open for a chill spot, but is have to leave early for the show. If you show up, awesome, if you don't, awesome, I'll be there regardless.

JENZ 10-24-2013 01:30 PM

I'll be there.

Infamous 10-24-2013 01:46 PM

Do they have an awd dyno? I have some friends in town that might wanna do it.

So are we talking about this saturday? I'm down to stop by but I won't be able to stay long sadly - have to prepare for a Halloween party later that evening. I can do an hour or two though. No dyno for me.

JENZ 10-25-2013 10:00 AM

Tomorrow. No dyno for me either but I am coming to hang out.

reeps 10-27-2013 09:37 AM

It was cool meeting everyone yesterday,,, sorry we couldn't stay longer. Anyway I know some of you were interested where I got my taillights painted.

Check out 6651 Customs
I think the address I have for them is wrong because they moved locations but call
Ryan - 702-289-6136 he did a great job on my taillights.

Definitely. Glad to meet a few of you all. Not glad about my results though. That's a call and a conversation with GTM though. Not sure how 12.6 AFR went to 11, but it may explain my dismal gas mileage. Not only that, both maps showed meth being pumped in, a second map was supposed to shut it off. At least the car sounded great lol.

PedroVonSmith 10-27-2013 12:26 PM

Thanks for the info Reeps, your tails do look good! The dyno was definitely humbling for sure.... I learned alot from the short time we were at doug's dyno. Stillen is made in china and cheap, I am re thinking my stance on invidia..... Also I am looking into some work rims 18''s 10'' wide +15 in the front, 19'' 10'' wide +15 in the rear. Anyone here good with rim sizing? I think 18's will look funny in the front on stock ride height. Thanks for organizing that SS Firehawk. Good luck with GTM

My fitments:

19x9 +32

19x10.5 +27

I bought my rims from element wheels.

JENZ 10-27-2013 06:34 PM

The tail light guy quoted me $60 and it's also listed on the website for $60 under "specials." I will be going Saturday.

PedroVonSmith 10-27-2013 08:35 PM

I have a rattle can of the Plasti-dip for tail lights if you want it. I will not smoke out my tails. Free if you can meet me in NLV.

Infamous 10-27-2013 11:03 PM

Wish I could have made it. Any vids or pics from the meet? Have you checked the will this fit thread? I'm running 19x9.5 +22 and 19x10.5 +12. Stock rubber. I think this set up is the most common on the forums.
It sits pretty flush, also allows you to run some fatter rubber.

Thanks for the offer but I prefer the paint in this case. :)

PedroVonSmith 10-28-2013 12:07 AM

No prob Jenz, I have a ton of plasti-dip. Don't need it. I have spent the whole day learning about offset and sizes. I am just worried that 18's in the front will look weird. But the deal is almost to good to pass up. I will post pics of the test fit. I am trading my built SR20 for some work rims. Hopefully it pans out.

They have horrible lighting in there parking lot. There is a good parking lot at the new VA hospital in North Vegas. Huge Parking lot good lighting and security. Only downside to that is its on 215 and pecos way in north town.

if you're closer to 1-15 it's easier, with 215's construction, to take the 215 exit off of the I-15 and head west...slight bottleneck just past the s'getti bowl.

Just an FYI, I'll be setting up a sale thread for my new CS V2 fenders. I prefer local hence me throwing out the notification. I'm coming back in town for my bday next weekend. Not sure if I'm doing anything special.
