Hey PSYmon, I inquired about the LEDs last night.
he told me, 5 dollars per bulb.
How many bulbs do you need?

I like to explain the FE as just being a race against the clock to look up equations. There were some theory ones that I was able to do real quick and not have to look up. There were also a bunch of questions that were really odd and I really had no idea where to look them up. I feel like studying on your own for this test would be really difficult given how much material is covered on it. I read over the equation book a few times very in depth, and that’s all I did to study. Some problems I got almost instantly because I knew exactly where the equation was and just plug and chug. I hear the class offered for both the FE and PE are pretty helpful. They take a lot of time and money to do them but if you want to be prepared as much as possible they are worth it.

Yeah I was talking to one of the component engineers who actually graduated in 09' (the same year I did HS lol) about the FE and he was like "yeah if you take a class I might be down to take it with you and then we can study and take the test together." I thought it was kinda funny to take the FE with a component engineer who is 28 now haha. Mitsubishi has never really pushed any of us to get our PE. I guess mostly cause any decision we make goes to the higher powers in Japan, then we get the go ahead to implement a certain idea or process. I still wanna be a PE one day though.

Actually the door sills/license plate lights were from USA I'm pretty sure. They were about $2.50 each and a really nice white. The hong kong ones are for the map/dome ones and they are 9 SMD ones that are pretty blue in comparison to the door ones. I bought 3 different types for the map/dome lights and they are all the annoying 6000k. I might try to buy some 5000k white SMDs and just make my own some day.

Customer Service is as well. I ordered a wrong bulb by mistake, so I told them two of the bulbs that I needed didn't work (which was false) and they sent me the right bulbs no questions asked.

OKAY, this shit just pisses me off.
RANT about REVINDUSTRIES AND ACURAZINE

so, along came rev industries to sell tshirts.
A natural disaster came (not this recent one) and knocked out his power to his shop.
left lots of acurazine members without their orders being fulfilled.

MY FRIEND(who post on acurazine daily, i might add), stood up, and offered these people a discount on shirts, since they got ripped off.
you guys do remember when simon was making the 4g designs and 2g tsx designs right?

well revindustries comes back and fucking shits all of over my friends thread.
and we go to war.
back and fourth.

mind you we dont have a clue who the fuck rev industries is.
i know that my friend has been posting here for 3 years straight.


so anyway, I made a thread in the 3G TL section saying "BOYcOTT REVINDUSTRIES"

I got accused of using my popularity to sway business.
and my thread got shut down.

now guess what?
REV INDUSTRIES IS NO WHERE TO BE FOUND AND HAS LEFT LOTS OF MEMBERS HIGH AND DRY

FUCK ACURAZINE

they're not backing him
but they're not backing us(trusted) members either.

kinda lame.
if my friend, took over the business, this wouldnt have happened and we would be helping out an acurazine member pay his light bills (or mod his car)
but no, rev made a case and they let him operate.


he took money from you 2nd gen tsx'ers.

I'm not big on talking shit about a vendor. If I get a bad product I pretty much just dont buy from them anymore. Regarding the one t-shirt I bought from rev. It took 3 weeks versus the 1 week that was advertised and it has smudges of black on the front and smudges of red on the back of it. I half way thought of returing it but decided the trouble was more than it was worth. You can see the black smudge in his own picture on his thread. Mines the green 2nd gen tsx shirt (top right).

^DomedDecals only paid for a 3 month membership for being a vendor.
its now gone.

if however, you still would like shirts, I can talk to him under the radar to see if he still would like to continue.

Guys help the geezer LOL

need some lugs for some new wheels.
Don't need the ultra thin 17mm

19mm will be fine locks too

I dont feel like spending 200 bux either.

Wheels are silvery so a titanium or silver color lug is good.

Is muteki OK? Other decent priced ones?

Been looking g at their sr48 and sr35 I think I got those right
