Nice, its been a long time since the old crew has been together for a "cruise".
Crome-puff needs to get in on the cruise too.

Oh yea, just like a couple years back when we'd always head to *edit* after Applebees every Tuesday until midnight or later. Those were good times.

You, LSE crew, Reid, Hughes, Chrome-puff, Brian with civic, and sometimes others. My first time ever going around corners fast, I couldn't keep up with anyone.

yeah, those nights were bomb, i am still in school though which sucks and the bee's meets are on the other end of the cities, so not really worth the hike for me anymore.

Well I ordered some parts to finish up the car:

DSMLink
FP4 cams
AEM wideband
Oil pressure gauge
Water temp gauge

Swapping in the PTE 61 this weekend, and probably installing the SS clutch line and new slave. The transmission swap and doing work on the GSX will have to wait until it gets warmer.

I talked with a few people at FP and they said I should be fine on Crower singles with the FP4 cam, as long as I'm running medium boost levels (under 30) and not making 600 whp or something crazy. Also since I'm only going to rev to 8000rpm it's not quite so risky.

Every time I try to work on my car or upgrade it, I get a huge wrench into the situation and nothing goes as planned. I attempted to put on the 61 last night, then realized that the motor mount was right where the IC piping needed to go to the passenger side. Suck.

So I realized I need to have the piping route to the drivers side like everyone else with big turbos, but both endtanks on my greddy FMIC point to the passenger side. So today I ordered a Spearco 2-216 setup with 2.5" short route piping on ebay, $400 shipped. The core is 28x10x3.5.

Hopefully I can sell my entire Greddy FMIC and 2.25" piping setup for not a big loss. Still sucks though, I have to wait another week to have a working car.
