HEY BurntGSX - Page 5

just ordered my wheels and tyres and am shopping for a computer.

get a real computer... Get a mac. Im thinkin switching front ends to a 97-99 body style. any body have the headlights to go with it?

I have everything.. I think. I had headlights, I don't know if I got them back from my body guy or not. but I have front and back, headlights and foglights, and a set of bomex sides too.. whole works $450.. if I can find the lights... I'll get back to you tomorrow... I've been trying to get rid of this stuff cause its taking up space in my garage... I would be more than happy to send it to you!! let me know

if I can find my lights.. I don't know if my body guy gave them back... otherwise I have it all.. front and rear bumpers from a 97, headlights, fog lights, AND bomex side skirts that haven't been out of the plastic.... $450 for the works... if I can find the damn lights

sorry for the double.. the page is being weird

its ok. the page is being weird for all of us. Let me know. i dont know about doing it right now, but it is a definate possibility. Anything new with you?

everything is awesome for me.. hows everyone else doin?? TELL ME WHATS UP!

whats up, not a damn thing, another boring ass day at work

Got my wheels, quit my day job, start school wednesday. LIFE IS GRAND.

you going to get a school job? I dont know if they will ever let me leave this place. They are starting to rely on me too much. School starts here next wed. Man i love the view at school.

I think this is the longest thread we have... 8 pages... keep it up...

hey yeah! GO ME!! lol, school starts here...the 30th.. but I haven't been off, summer classes.

hey mad, lets see some pics of those new wheels you've been braggin about!

and speaking of work.. anyone else have to go through 2 weeks of 8 hour perday 5 days aweek training for a job? cause I HAVE... sucks my ass. its hard to stay awake, its like im in school all day. and then since I have classes at night... work(school) from 8-5 and then school from 530-1030... LONG DAY

I don't have a camera for pics of MY wheels but that will follow the laptop in my order of things to get.
no workstudy for me I'm workin graveyard at a hotel full time! Get paid and do homework life is grand!
before I quit the day job I was 11pm-7am at the hotel and 730am-4pm at supergo! lather, rinse, repeat. not fun but got caught up!
if u want to see the wheels I got go to tires.com and look up the Xwheels 6spoke. again cheap but bettr than stock!

Im about to do the same.. My stocks are pretty beat up.. I want 18's but am saving for a turbo... both cost $1000+ so.. ha, I need new tires though too. what to do? leave it in the garage till next spring prob.

by the way.. Im getting a bigger turbo. should i get 18g or 20g? remember bigger isn't always better, AND I really don't want to have to get a new EMS. what do you all think? and what kind? cause I've seen some that you have to buy the 2g kit with, and there are some new ones out that come with the 90 degree elbow welded on already... anyone had experience with those? also, I left my two coolant lines on my stock t25 when I sold it cause they wouldn't come off... where do I go for new ones?

new coolant lines? umm......autozone? i guess........... as for the turbo, remember smaller tends to spool faster and gives boost earlier, big spools slower but gives more boost................

yeah, Im going with a 20g. dsmparts.com makes one that is direct bolt on for the 2nd gen now for like $900, I figure I might as well do it right the first time right?

as for the lines.. I mean the ones that connect to the turbo.. autozone has them? ....I don't want to go to the stealership and get ass raped for a new set, I was hopin someone knew where to go. HELP ME!

well...... id help if i could, but im a n/t guy, so your guess is as good as mine, thats y i said autozone, hehe.......... dont blame ya for not goin to the dealer, i hate those guys, theyd probly end up tellin you that the turbo wont work unless they install it........lmao

lol! they would tell me that I'm out dated and try to sell me an EVO... (why would I buy a car that I could do NOTHING to, not even change the tires, for the duration of the warrenty without voiding it???) come on people!!! TIRES!??!

great story about the stealership...
my hazards and brake lights, turn sigs, etc.. weren't working. I pulled every fuse out that I could possibly find and thought they were fine.. dug through the wiring to find nothing wrong.. I take it in, they find a bad fuse and charge me $172 for it...and then when I asked for the fuse (cause I swear I looked at all of them) they said they threw it away... Hmmm..??

yea, next time id ask them to go dig thru the trash and get it, cause your not gonna pay 172$ for a fuse you probly had at home, oh, and that took a mechanic like what, 40 seconds worth of work......... how the hell does that 40 sec. of work and a 79 cent fuse come out to 172$.
its bullshit, i hate those ****ers.............

lol! cause they had to run the hour long diagnosis first!!! stealership....

LMAO...............

i was just goin thru the gallery and noticed you have ur pedals set up the same way i do, weird, works better though huh, did you keep hittin your foot on the brake when you went for the gas or clutch caus the brake pedal was to big? i did, that and i try not to use the brake if i dont have to, hehehehehehehe...............

YES! god damn it, I would push the brake down and rev the hell out of my engine.. I was like WTF? had to go, but I got new ones, brushed aluminum. they are not as wide. hope they work better... but yeah, that pissed me the hell off. I was like "this looks gay" but who looks at my pedals... all they see are my tail lights

lol, yea, looks more like a race setup anyway, who uses the brake really anyway...............

ha.. this is true.

um er bump
