Chit Chat

Beemercer - lol yeah wrapping the tach doing it JHM style all the time doesnt help but I bet that its fun as hell hahaha. You must be liking the 6 speed then, I want it so bad.

Meistah - Wish we could have met up. would have been fun but theres only so much time in a day. Hope you had a good time while you were here.

Zingo - Update on my rant <— LOL!

Komseh if you liked the GT you gotta try the boss. It has the bigger brakes, awesome suspension (adjustable) handles like a champ, and it feels way more powerful, the thing is a race car. Makes me want a V8!

rod it was an awesome time, so many amazing bands!!! I want to go back with the GF sometime soon so hopefully we can roadtrip down in my car, and then we can definitely have a meet ;D

Got my radiator in today, cant drive much because I need to top off my tranny fluid, which requires going under the car, which requires my non-existant car jacks. I’ll get that taken care of on monday. Was going to go to the racetrack and see what I could do, but that’ll have to wait.

Wait for sure. With the autobots make sure that trans filuid is totally full. Depending on how many miles are on the fluid it might not be a bad idea to just change the fliud and filter.

so my cv joint is going out. i have replaced about 4 on my lifted f150 before i sold it. are these cars somewhat similar? where u have the one big nut on the hub, and a bunch to the center diff?? sorry, not to technical terminology.

what have you guys been up to? been a little quite the last few days.

Pretty sure it is, I’ve never heard anyone complain about it being overly complicated (unlike every other aspect of the car :P)

I’ve just been driving my car around for the last couple days, finally have it up and running again. Waiting for people to post up some track results!

awesome! zingo is going on Friday. I work Wednesday nights, that’s when the local drag strip has public sessions :frowning:

I think its a great idea. Im excited to get my car JHM’d out and get back to the track.

I do think we need to be very realistic. If we can get past 15.5 thats a big deal getting past 15.2 thats serious and if we can break into the 14’s then we need to start the celebration. I know we can bust the 13 mark but it will be a while before that happens.

Mod wise I know the parts are comming I just think we need to still remember we have made large jumps from stock but we still are far from where we want to be.

Yea I’ll be interested to see what he runs as he is almost identical in mods to me… I’m going to try to go to the track soon too.

Very curious to see what yours runs motorsports, as of now I think you have the most powerful n/a 3.0 out of anyone on here.
I’ll just be sticking to ECU and TCU tune until next year probably, the only other money I want to spend on my car this year is to get my suspension back up to par and a couple minor cosmetic things.

breaking 14s with the tune and a full exhaust is what I’m hoping for. If we could get into 13s without boost that would be amazing. A PES 3.0 can do 13s so obviously with a jhm s/c that would be a piece of cake.

Lol while typing this I got a new job (no joke!), so might get exhaust this year as well :o

Right on, congratulations meistah!

I’m going to definitely try and hit the track soon. But man its hard to give up money right now haha.

Mine went out too and I just bought a whole axle, but I still have my old one with 100k on it and a torn boot, if you want it you can have it.

It’s a cake walk really, that is the first maintenance I did on the car with ZERO experience on any car really. Turned the wrench on my dirt bike a few times. It’s quite easy…

My grandpa just passed away this Monday and his service is tomorrow… Still planning track time because I know he would want me too, just giving you guys the heads up in case
I don’t make it…

If you don’t make it I think we will understand.

knowing what we run stock and knowing how the car feels. how fast do you think your going to go?
Maybe we should start a thread on that huh?

Zingo, we would totally understand, dont trip!

Got a quote for USP lower yesterday. Lasher Audi wanted $191.xx ( Best friend works there, so thats with a discount [ ecrew16 on AZ, he kinda chimes in every once in a while on the b6 side])

Niello Audi wanted $361.xx

Good joke, Niello! haha

Great idea shawn, just for now until the 1/4 mile list gets made.

motorsport that sounds like a pretty good price. you can get it for less online but then you have to account for shipping.

ya, exactly. Although, the fog grilles are 42 each, the center is 180 :frowning:

I’ve seen people just use the stock grill, it’s not perfect but it looks decent… Stupid that the grills are so pricey. I’ll check for alternatives.

Just did a quick search, you could try an S4 grill, just need to trim it a bit. They should be a fair bit cheaper (under 100)

I’m using my stock lower grill, doesnt look that bad

Thanks dude I was getting my prices from Niello! I didn’t even know there was more than 1 dealer. I’m trying to head out tommorrow morning or maybe even tonight if I can get things in order, got a lot of stuff to figure out first. Hopefully Lasher stocks everything I need: Front USP lower with all 3 grills, driver fender and bracket, and fuel filter. Trying to think if theres anything else I should get while I’m there? I’ll probably remember right after I get back home, lol
