I know :rofl:

I think for next summer, I'll be going with a 16/17, 50 series sidewall, no camber, and leave it around this height. Go for the nice "fat / flush / functional" look. My passenger axle was rubbing in four different spots :( I didn't take a pic though :/

nothing special, but picked up a new AEM oil pressure gauge! I wanted digital to match, but found an analog for a good price and couldnt say no.

stole this from Brian Casey off of the fb page:

It's getting there! It should be finished this weekend, along with the lower cubby (mine's not pictured). Then I should get it in a week or two. Contemplating buying a double din right away or waiting until boxing day or after christmas

My bezel is done, just waiting on the lower cubby to get finished up. It doesn't look as good as the other ones.. I think he's getting too busy with these and starting to rush them :/ too bad

just shoot it with some filler primer or etching and then whatever color you want and it will fill any inperfections

He hasn't even started my lower cubby yet, this is starting to bother me. It's been just over 5 weeks, he said it would take one week to do. FUCK, I'm buying a double din next week too -_______________-

Anyways, my bottom end is finally done! Money is just sitting in the bank for it, but it's 2 hours north of me :shock:.

Also, got a sweeeeet present from my buddy:

Image

Two Mopar shirts, and a "Got Boost" SRT shirt... even though I have no boost :(

I'm bored, decided to update with nothing exciting.

bought a double din on tuesday, Pioneer AVH-P2400BT. I should be getting it tomorrow in the mail.

paid for the machine work on my bottom end today, might have it sometime next week.

OHHH and we FINALLY got some snow:

forgot to mention.. SOMEONE STOLE MY FOG LIGHT :'( there was a party a few doors down and some douchebag kids fucked up the paint underneath my fog light and took the fog light.. I'm assuming it's them at least, since I went to bed with a fog and woke up without one. I'm looking for some decent priced fog deletes now

want deletes, I cut the fog wires a while ago, just never bothered to get deletes.. now I have reason :p

Winter whore!

got my double din today, was very excited and started putting it in without the bezel. Decided it was a stupid idea :rofl:

Image

I have to wait around two weeks for my bezel :( now I'm even more impatient. FUUUCCKK

looks great.... I see you must have bought some parts ie: turbo, hard piping, pistons off of cutshield? I guess your staying SOHC but with turbo. You will love the difference in your car. I bought my brothers 2K neon with 2.4L stratus motor with new srt internals / 50trim /MS2 / borla exhaust etc. Nuno built the car... runs awesome is super fast after I fixed the tune. I just bought a 2L race ported head as I have a problem with smoke during start up my valve seals are gone. We all gotta get together sometime an have a meet in the spring. :rockon: :thumbup:

Decided to do a little general maintenance today. Bought new wipers, plugs, and another litre of oil.

Image

A tube of adhesive opened up at one point, and I found out today when I went to grab my gapper :shock: luckily 0.000 - .050 was clean, so I was able to use it anyways.

Image

annnddd then I find out this:

It's only in 4, the other three are dry.

that sucks im always fighting those damn tubes to fix the problem once and for all go buy some NEW tubes and replace them with sealant on the head side and new seals in the valve cover and then you wolnt have a problem ive found out they like to come out of the head and leak in the bottom and I just like to do new seals up top to make sure its not an issue but I don't remember which sealant to use and I have factory fog deletes that are in good condition
