its about time! sounds good man
and that whole wake the dead thing made me laugh pretty hard haha

Little updates, got some new sticker for power gains. Got some valve stems to match my lugs andddd I repainted my steels. Oh and I tried a little custom interior work, gonna do a better job when I have time. The nob is from an Em2 I snagged the other day in Mass.










Dirty floor, my apollogies haha.


And then my buddies Audi that just got equipped with a rice box that says "Rice Box, Fuk JDM"

those lugs arent made for your wheel....

 

[CHILD]

they look like the cheap lugs that don't have the angled seat. Similar to the stock lugnuts. Can't really tell from the pic.

 

[CH33V5]

Yeah they're just some I nabbed for next to nothing at work, and painted them, wanted to see if I liked the purple nuts.

 

[TigBitties]

well make sure you keep an eye on them, they are prone to breaking loose and coming off since they dont have the right taper on them for those wheels

 

[CH33V5]

Well guys I just got f**ked.I was doin' a little burnout in this bridge outside of the city and my car got super loud in the middle of it. So I cussed a little and assumed I broke the weld on the resonator. But it was way to loud for it to be that. Get this, the f**kiing cat where it was all rusty near the flange, well it seperated from that. So now there's an inch long gap between the flange and he start of the cat... f**k. Looks like I'm spending the money I have for the drop on the Megan catback I wanted. s**t.

Agreed, you wouldn't want those lugs to slip off and you riding on bare rotors

 

[CH33V5]

Haha ok damn! I ordered some new ones a couple days ago anyway.

So here's the issue:



Dope huh?

 

[TigBitties]

goodluck getting that catback to even bolt up. that whole flange is f**ked

 

[CH33V5]

goodluck getting that catback to even bolt up. that whole flange is f***ed

Haha I know bro. The power loss is rediculous, it sounds like a Harley with straight pipes, and just sucks and is embarrassing. But I'm afro engineering it tomorrow, I'll post pics.

 

[Xx96CoupexX]

haha sucks about the exhaust.. but builds coming along nice!
