My best friend was always the big kid of the group. Not saying he was fat, because he was also the tallest. I think in 7th grade he was already 6 foot tall and about 200lbs. We'd go to White Castle and get a Crave Case, the one with 50 burgers (cheese, no onions ) and Id end up eating more then half of it all. Now I can do about 15-20, but thats including a side of chicken rings.

Fuck, I want some White Castle right now...

Can't believe I've never had White Castle...

They don't have them around here...actually you can barely find any fast food in San Francisco.

I can count like less than 8 drive throughs in the entire city!

San Francisco is all about "mom and pop" places, we just got approval after so many years to get our first Target! Like seriously...

My brother and I tried to get a franchise license from White Castle and open one here near VCU. They wouldnt let us though. I think we would have done pretty well if they let us. Theres surprisingly alot of NYers here and being close to a college, I think that would have helped business.The nearest WC is in Jersey. Ive been tempted to make the drive quite a few times.

We have tons of McDonalds (yuck), Chik-fil-as (yum), Sonic, Hardees, a few Wendys, and Taco Bell. I like Chik-fil-a but they have stupid hours and theyre closed on Sundays. Other then that, if youre hungry at 4am the only place to go is home, a 24 hours IHOP if you can find one, or the gas stations (which, surprisingly, do have some decent food).

Oh, and to keep this somewhat on topic , I swapped my air intake back to a short ram and oddly enough the car has more balls . I'd dyno it with and without, but when the car is static it wont make much of a difference. I might be able to get the car on the dyno this week, hopefully. Im probably heading to NY on Wednesday so Im going to try hitting the dyno on Tuesday.

What bike do you have Civic? How high have you had it up to? Fastest I've been on a bike is 186 mph indicated, (so likely in the 170mph range? idk) on a 2007 GSXR1000. Once! That was enough, especially since it was not my bike! I'm not good enough to play on the twisties, but I'll go as fast as I can on the straights, if the road and traffic are right. Stupid I know!

I want to get the BMW S1000rr. But I have a 5 year old son, so I wont be getting one!

Hope you get better man.

how bout Jack-in-the-Box, we only started getting them recently, but then again they are mainly a west coast place though iirc



the best place i like is a sub ($$$ though), but damn good, and yeah it's a mom and pop type of shop (he was actually a customer that had sent some free sandwiches one day )

Well thats not the news I wanted to hear, I hope your health comes back around man.

School alright, its good to be out of the house. I finally got around to detailing the IS so now its presentable. Still haven't fixed the exhaust!!

And you know theres a 24 hour Wendy's by us right? Trevor and I go there every time we're hungry at 4am.

Im planning on heading to NY next week for a few days, and Im actually looking forward to getting a real deli sandwich and some White Castle. Also some of my moms cooking

I ordered AMRs about 2 months ago. Managed to get in on an Accord group buy on another forum. Got a damn good deal. Theyre made in the US, custom valved/sprung, use Hyperco coils, and have a lifetime warranty.

I knew it would take awhile to build them so I wasnt stressing the wait. I actually expected a longer wait but Andy sent me a tracking number yesterday. Cant wait to get them in.

If you come thru to Yonkers, I'll suggest the best deli sandwiches you've ever had, they even bake their won bread! I also know of a white castle that is right smack in the middle of the ghetto, they even have to buzz you in, and they have bank teller windows made of bullet proof plexi glass and a swivel door. But the chicken rings are slammin, lol.

They are amazing and can be firmer than firm or softer than stock.

I think I need to move out east and into the states, I have never even seen what a white castle looks like outside of H&K and didn't believe it was a real place when I first saw the movie lol.
Glad to hear your feeling better dude!

With all the free time Ive been lurking on all different forums getting ideas for things. Ive gotten the itch to do something with the Civic too. Just gotta explore one of my ideas a bit more before I commit to something

I think thats being generous honestly

I need to get some paint on it and drop the motor into it. Then concentrate on the fuel system and the interior.
