Any DSM meets in San Diego

[banishedmunk]

Lol, i will ext him and see how much it is to get them shipped... if its cheaper then Fed Ex, wanna see about doing a group buy?

A group buy for that reason is a very bad idea as shipping stuff through military for commercial reasons is illegal.

the next meet after Barona should be when......?? Hay Mike!, when are you sheduled to have Duty again?

The brackets costs $100 - $125, the double carbide bit to grind everything was $25, and the M14 x 1.5 tap was another $25. On top of all that you've got to grind your nice Brembo calipers up AND lower the integrity of your OE knuckle, who knows how much its actually weakening it. If you don't have an air compressor, die grinder, or 12 hours of install time it makes getting the brackets even less practical. On top of that, I've cleaned my garage about a dozen times since I did the grinding just for one side and I'm still pulling small metal shavings out of my feet everytime I go out in the garage without shoes. #### those adapter brackets, I only say that because I'm passionate about how shitty of an install it was. It's your deal but I'll be the guinnea pig on this but here it is... sell your brackets and save yourself who knows how much trouble, just get the JDM Galant knuckles and be done with it.

Well I already got all the supplies and tools ready to go so I'm going to go for it. I like metal shavings (not really)

On top of that the calipers came off a housegsx's 2g when he upgraded so hopefully I won't have to shave them down anymore, and I got it all for a great price.

Can we try to make it sometime after the 27th? Finals are going to keep me busy until then

Never thought i would see Kris as the legality type... It doesnt have to be for commercial, its recreational

It would be like:
Postman - what are you shipping over to the US?
Bro -I'm shipping 8 pairs of knuckles to my brother for his graduation present
Postman - 8 knuckles?
Bro -Yeah, knuckles
Postman - Like hand knuckles?
Bro -Nah, knuckles for his car, he races on the side and needs a few of them so i thought i would get him some since these are JDM models... they Hella Flush

Think that might work?

 

[GSX_TC1]

Yes that would work, I spent 2 years over in japan and always had friends buggin me to ship parts. You just have to have them wrapped up properly before you send them out from the post office. You don't even need to tell them what your shipping either. I shipped a whole windshield back home for a friend one time. But I would def be interested in that group buy though because I would love to put brembos on the VR4.

As far as working ed, I stand post almost every day. I only have one day here and there off.

[GSX_TC1]

[GST with PSI]

That same car was in that thread about who has the rarest color 2g, some people claimed that was the rarest color

Big thanks goes out to corey for building my car while I was out gettting wings-N-things. Came back all my intercooler piping was in and clamped with no boost leaks the cams were in the timing belt was on and the turbo was put together ready to be bolted up. I might as well have done nothing tonight. last night he ran my -6an fuel line while rerouting the fuel system and installed the new fuel lab fuel filter. with alot of luck the Zoe aka the red dragon will be alive and beginning a new stage of underage drinking at the ripe young age of 20 years old.

 

[gofer]

Yep.

In all seriousness, I didn't do all that shit but the car should be idling on its own tomorrow morning with corn juice in its tank. WOOT.

he's just returning the favor since you built his car

 

[goodbuds]

he build your car while you were out getting food, so he could install the self distruct in the turbo thats set to go off at 500whp >)

 

[Zefal151]

No kidding, i could see like a little bag of Frogs hiding in your intake pipe so that when you hit around 500hp, your sucking enough air in that it opens the bag and the frogs hit your turbo...


HEHE, there's no way i couldn't bring it up.... anyways

Grats Kris, will be looking for the half-moon seal in a second, and will give you a call...

Totally saw golfer pass by garage gt Friday around 4 pm. Was there watching some of socalEVOs get dynoed by rallyinspired. Impulsively I threw up my arms in a gangster fashion yelling out "BUSHUR POWER WHATS UP BRO!?" as golfer passed by. IDK if he saw me haha

 

[bboyalan]

^Thug j/k. It was nice meeting you btw.

 

[gofer]

That was me, I was picking up some Redline fluids for the transmission at Pann Auto... $12 a quart. WOOT! How did that white IX do up on the dyno anyway? I posted up on socalevo asking, seemed like everyone was there but nobody knew what the numbers were?

 

[Nito15]

haha whats up Alan, get a Mitsu again man so you can boost away into the sunset when the girlfriend gets mad for spending too much time and money on it ! yeaaahh

This morning my friend took me on a ride in his evo8, it kept up with a street bike till it ran out of 5th gear. The rider was in disbelief the evo kept up when we pulled over and spoke with him. We were in even more shock when he told us it was a gsxr 1000 ! The GSXR rider told us he was pegging his rpm gauge hitting the rev limiter every gear he used and couldn't believe it was side by side for that long. Mitsu power bro.

oh and golfer.
I believe the EVO that was dynoing when you passed by was an EVO X. FP RED supoorting mods, factory longblock put down 438 hp or something like that. The owner is that vivalaevolucion guy that started the http://www.socalevo.net/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=37&topic=109178.0 thread. I didnt stay much I had to go to rigo's work since we are working on this top secret project there. Another X put down around 470!

That dyno dynamics is supposedly the most heartbreaker out of all, puts out the lowest number readings even less than the Mustang Dynos !
