Some loud ass 100k truck


B96 is there, along with a lot of other shit to do.
PS2 Interactive LCD Area (Gran Turismo 3)
Rudy Luther Scion

And they're giving away 3 times as much shit.

And it's $5.00 less.

I've been asked 4 times tonight why none of DSMStyle is there.

I'm the only one sporting DSMStlye, and I entered a 3g.

a 3g.


:stick:

i entered my car along with mnscc but i had to bail out cause 1. my buddy club kit isnt on and painted. 2. i never got my system preorder sent out 3. havent installed new black carpet, new steering wheel, shift knob, shift boot and finally 4. my car PC and touchscreen wouldnt be able to run during the show anyways. maybe next year :goodluck:

i may go to the show at least. not sure

The only car show I need to see is in the staging lanes at the track.

The only car show I need to see is in my driveway.

CRAIG :lol:

So there is no cars other than a 3G from DSMStyle? Hummm, do me a favor and rip those stickers off. lol Other than that WooT!

LOL that is great!!!

Autovations = teh lose.

Don't plan on seein me there... there are enough neon lights and bodykits in AV I can see for free.

I'd just assume check out whose at Porky's tonight myself. So if anyone is going to be out look for a Dodge Omni with a cage. I'll be riding with in that car.

Nice! Omni's rock! :D

your point being i have an rs? whats that supposed to mean. i was in talks with allan no less than a month ago getting quotes on a full engine build or possable turbo setup. if you havent noticed, most people who go to shows like to LOOK at cars rather then critique their powerplants. ooh well. fuck it, rip on my car all you want. im have plenty of people telling me i have a nice car, i dont need to hear it from you. :secret:

no, people go to car shows to see nice cars. nice cars include nice motors. turbo'd RS's dont qualify. i guess im just a nay-sayer. i'm not nice. oh well. sell your car, get a real one.

Please don't build a 420A for turboing it! Those motors are so dissappointing even when built. Do a basic kit with the stock motor and run 8psi or whatever, if your not happy with that kind of power then look for a different car or have them weld in motor mounts for a stock 4G63 and put that in.

you misunderstood me, i was going to have him either build up the engine or do a turbo install, not build for turbo. im not doing any kind of build now, im leaving it stock. if i was living on my own, not going to school, not paying for tuition and not still making payments on the car, maybe it would be different. I guess i dont even drive a real car according to you guys. this is a bs argument anyways due to almost everyones "my car is better than yours" mentality.

My 1g was planning on being there, but we all know how that's going... :(

You gave me the blow off on the way to 280. I was in the 3g.

There is nothing wrong with an RS if the RS isnt at the track.
Going fast isnt the only thing in this world of cars, Sure is great to have a fast car and show it off, but at a car SHOW, its not all about go. Honestly i loved autovations (except for the price) and there was a lot of Nice show cars there as well as fast ones.
lets see some of the 1g dsms here rust and all, but really fast, go to a CAR SHOW and how many looks will it get.... well not many except for the people going what the fuck is this car doing at a car show and not at the track.
its a chance to show your nice car off and show how much work you put into it. whether its a sweet paint job, the bling factor or just a fast modded all around car (perf. mods to boot.) Xrated is a prime example of this, they had a kick ass booth that brought a lot of attention, for one they have Uber Nice looks and Uber nice mods.
all im saying folks is give credit where credit is due, some people work soo hard to get their cars the way they look. another prime example is the older cars, a lot of them would not do shit at the track but are fucking flawless at the shows.

Oh shit I drive an RS too!

I saw the dsmstyle decals so I figured it might be someone off the board. I was just riding along, the owner was still breaking in the clutch and motor. Its built for road race/ auto-x.

I love GLHS'! Although I figured the driver was just another hater trying to make me know the car is boosted, although I knew...

But nice car none the less.

SlowWhite was there wasn't he? So there were other stylers there.

Ya I was there. Was a fun time... my first real attempt at showing my car in 2 years. Was disapointed.

But hey at least I now know what I'm lacking and have a fire up my ass about changing what I got deducted on.

Basically my main focus is going to be the exterior cause that's mostly what people see/care about.

I don't know how many FNF Fallowers said I'm running PVC piping for intercooler pipe.

I just had to say are you serious to each of them. Then combine that with some guys reading my turbo off my mod list and with out seeing they'd say oh that's not that big it's barely larger then stock. I almost rolled over laughing.

I was suprised to hear what people thought was cool or that stood out.


My painted interior got quite a lot of attention I don't know what it is but it's was everyones first instict to touch it.

I was like what they hell do they think it's scratch and sniff or something?

Yeah, about that...

Uhm, my bad :stick:

That was pretty funny though, everyone touched it that looked at it. It just compels you to touch. It's hypnotic or something...

It's no big deal actually - the PPG paint on there is the best paint I've used so far. and holds up quite well to abuse.

Also for those that heard about the tire issues I was having and the problems Tires Plus was giving me.

Well yesterday I took in there 2nd replaced tire that went flat on the way home from Autovations. And while we were discussing the problem at hand the guy hit the Valve Stem when he was checking the tire and air started coming out.

Turns out the Valve stem holds air when in the straight position. But when I get up to speed on the highway the cintrifical force bends the stem causing it to leak.

Which explains why both times the tire held air in the city streets but goes flat on the highway.

So the arguments of me having to pay for the last 2 tires, is now over. And they are going to be covering those 2 tires and now this 3rd one.

yeah, that was some shit. What brand were those rims?

What kind of valve stem? I hope is a nice metal one or the really short stubby metal ones, thats what I have and they are realy nice. From my experience stay away from tures plus.

I got my new tires mounted at discount tire in bloomington (brand new store) and they did a great job.

Not metal but I'm thinking about asking for Metal Valve Stems this time around.

The other ones were the rubber (hense the bending at Highway speed)

I just had them order me a new Pirada Spec 2 so that it match's the rest of my tires. However they are on back order so it'll take a while for it to come in.

Hopefully it'll be before this weekend so I can go racing.
