no problem, sorry about the shipping issue. hope everything worked out for you. i ay see you boys out tonight. im going to play some miniture golf with my girl... talk to you guys soon
 
I can't believe it actually didn't rain Saturday night. Me and Boosted were out. I ended up breaking my crank pulley. Thanks again Kawboy for saving the day. Car drives great now.
 
Hey everyone hows it going. Been a member of this site for some time now. Just browsed over to thr tri state forum and saw the TR thread exploding. Had no idea there were so many people in the area with DSMs. I've got a red 99 GST right now. Could use a little work with some things. Mainly the squeaky belt that won't go away. Kinda bummed I missed the cruise with you guys on that gorgeous weekend we just had. But then again, I'm probably not gonna hit up 37 till I get the belt issue fixed. If anyone can lend me a hand I'd definitely appreciate it.

I just fixed my belt issue. Alternator belt was loose due to a stripped lock bolt. Do you know which belt is making the noise? Have you recently replaced them? Need some more info to help you.

Yeah I'm pretty sure it is the Alternator belt. Because it squeaks when you start it up and if you hit the lights, heat or rear defogger it will start again. This is probably my 3rd belt in 2.5 years. I really cannot stand it, makes me wanna not drive my car sometimes.

Are you sure you are tensioning it properly?
 
I've never done it myself, I had one of my friends do it the first time when it snapped on me. Took it to a shop the most recent time and they changed one of the pulleys. Its usually good for a few months afterwards, but slowly creeps back.

Then it is probably the tensioner. It sounds like over time it starts to loosen up on you. You may have a stripped lock bolt.

Well that may be it, idk. Not even close to a mechanic. I just wanna get rid of it, can't stand it right now. Neighbors probably hate me now.
 
Hey is anyone else going to the Wildwood car show this weekend? I'm going down Saturday and I know Boosted is going because he lives there. Also, 1fastlaser is going. Kawboy, you interested?
 
Well I went to Wildwood over the weekend. Everyone there is pretty much an asshole. We were driving the strip in Kyle's Talon and everyone was saying to light the tires up and gave us the :rolleyes: face when we said "AWD." Everyone had beer muscles. However, we did meet up with 1fastlaser, accidentally LOL. That turbo is bigger than my head!
 
Yeah it was cool to meet up with you guys. Im acually not going to down ocean city maryland now. So maybe this weekend we can get some shit done.
 
My favorite line that day was "I got more power in my DREMEL". HAHAHA. That would be great Steve as long as I get time to fix my exhaust leak and throttle body.

Hey sean I was just watching this video then realized I saw this vette at the shop.

I think that's Sean's friend. I saw that Z06 there too. That thing is no joke though. Looks like I will need a couple more hundred horsepower before I start messing with them LOL. I didn't realize he was related to the guy in the STi though. That made the trash talking less funny.
 
I killed 4th gear last night mopping up a 750 on the highway. Second run he wanted to go again, had 2 cars on him and clicked 4th and it free revved. Got off the exit to go back to this car meet i was at, and heard metal stuff floating around. put it in 4th and let the clutch out...it was like neutral LOL!!! I just laughed, drove to my work and got the evo, drove my buddy back to the meet.

I love these cars, its great because im completly numb to transmissions breaking at this point.
