matt, your the one that should be taking on gotboost8 because he has mods, and wants to take an awd launch. I guess after me?

redevo:that would be fun
 
Are you still waiting on the throttle body? If you are, that sucks and I really hope they are taking GOOD care of you.

I already got the throttle body and they took very god care of me. The car is done but I have very low compression in my #1 cylinder. And we have no idea why. So i'm gonna do a leak down test tomorrow.
 
I see in the video you claim 20psi, but aren't you on E85? Seems like low boost for that gas. I also hear mumblings of a time you ran, I can't wait if that time is true. I mean I will be on 93 unless someone gives me good reason to be on the expensive stuff.

Who mentioned light wheels, they only help the spin factor...but man those tires LOVE these hot streets...from anything but a launch.

Like i said, it was my second day with the turbo and still getting use to it, 20psi was enough for that run...

mumblings of a time i ran??? ROFL if your talking about track times, everyone knows i couldnt get anylower than 14 flat:sosad: or if your talking about something else... then id sure like to know too:D

:tease: "expensive stuff"

I'm sure that 20 psi won't be enough for our runs unless you fix that issue you're having up top, and that slow spool. ;)

I'm sure I heard something of a time mentioned in a pm, unless I was mis-informed. You know I'm a little older so my hearing isn't what it used to be. :rolleyes:

I know, I'm not cool enough to run that cheap corn fuel. :( But although the boost gauge shows 24psi, the car is only logging 20psi...I think I'll be fine with that expensive ass 93 octane. Maybe I'll find those lost 4psi before Saturday, turn it up 4 more on top of that and bring a little q16 for the big boys of Austin saturday nights. :shhh:

Of course, this is just fun so noone get the panties bunched up. Oh, and watch out for the leaking oil return line and drivers side axle seal...I wouldn't want to oil anyones windshield Saturday. :tease:
 
Holy shit guys I have a business meeting in Louisiana this weekened. Didn't even think about it. Sorry Can't go. Too bad because I just got a fmic. :( :barf::barf::barf: :cry::cry::cry::cry:

This is true, i am having problem up top, im unable to redline. Although i belive we fixed the problem today, just gotta get tuned and should be back to normal by saturday:thumb:

So do you guys plan on coming to the Austin meets after? that would be great! we need more DSMs to show up some V8s:sneaky:

I'm in too, although I just discovered my t-case is pouring oil out the rear seal. The new seal should be at the dealership in a couple days though.

Yeah, I'm gonna start rolling out to the Saturday meets more often. I went out and looked for some trouble this past weekend, but only found the slow cars. Where were you, didn't see you? :D
I know they hang out at 620/35, but there were like 6 cars that weren't even worth pulling in for. I rolled up and down 183 looking for them to be racing, but no dice there either. I did find a few Civics, but they were a little riced out. Had a Trans Am with no exhaust run up, but didn't want any when he heard my car. :sneaky: I found a Mustang on 35 that looked like a very good race, but we were on 35 in Round Rock. :nono: On the way home I found about 10 cars at the 7-11 on 620/Volente, but again nothing looked like a match. Oh well, next time I'll start looking for trouble earlier than 1130.
I plan on closing the exhaust next week, so it probably won't be for a few weeks before I roll out there. Oh yeah, I gotta find those pesky lost 4lbs so I can really play with them fast ####ers.
 
Yea this saturday it was waaaaaay down 183. Behind the Ihop by lakecreek. Its like you said, they try to stay away from the civics and "slow" cars. The meets last anywhere from 10pm-3am

I was out until 1:30 and had a feeling they were around that area, but I was hunting around the Target. :coy: And that is just right down the street from the house.

Any plans to go to midnight madness after the meet? Just saw he posted there was going to be one the same day. Might not be a bad idea with the heatwave in town.
 
Na i dont plan on going to midnight madness, with the heatwave in town it should be a pretty packed "Austin Night Meet"

Have you seen the cars the heatwave brings to the meets? Have you seen how those same people act when leaving the heatwave? It might bring some nice cars, but it will also bring cops and douche bags in droves. :notgood:

I think I'm gonna try to head to MM and do my baby launch runs. :tease: Time to pull the exhaust, though not connected, and find those lost psi's! :beatentodeath:
 
thats true, but for us unmarried folk, it brings the girls too:sneaky:

either way we're getting some pretty good new crowd from san antonio that like to come play on a regular weekend bases. included their 1100hp viper:nono: but still, just lets you know how good the meets are...

i would love to go to the track but i gave up on track times looong ago when the title said GST
 
I'm probably gunna have to bail also, I have work, and whoever I paid for my new FMIC suspiciously disappeared after payment, so I'm dealing w/ paypal to get some monies back. So I'm in the same spot as I posted previously.

Haha, I promise I haven't bailed on you guys tho...

I have talked with the guy who owns that viper many times. And he may make 1100 with the bottle but you wont see him ever use it except on the dyno, maybe....

He's more around the 800-900 range off the bottle. Either way its a very fast car.

yea if you check out the link to the videos i posted, you see that my friend in the 300zx with a 2jz t71 making about 500hp is right behind him by a leg

What part of Austin do you live in? I remember a car like yours a few years back, although it had a blue un painted hood. MZM did a lot of the work for the car. Not yours but I'm curious if you know who it belonged to.
