Oh man, again? Damn


At work or at AZ?

Well, its the last time I will be working off hours for a while...

Sprint bought out Virginmobil and we are bringing in VirginMobil customers...so we lock them in the old system and bring them in....so they get free service when locked....we do this at night hoping many peeps wont realize the free service....

convert the customer over and unlock them....and start billing them....and we got a full team here

we usually end up watching movies on the projector while the computer and our scripts do all the work

MEKO

iTrader: (1)

That sounds like a bad thing? Am I right? You bastid don't touch my phone

swoosh

iTrader: (5)

well, Sprint doesnot want people to get free calling....and hence we do it at night since the traffic at night is a lot less....and my company makes the billing system....

makes sense?

You have one of the sickest TL's on the board bro.

Been a while since I've been on your thread but DAYUUUUM....looks great!

A nice turbo setup would compliment the aggressiveness of the car very well. You should give Hickam a ring.

Just noticed you posted 3 minutes ago. Good to know I'm not the only fool up this late on a work night. Hahaha

MEKO

iTrader: (1)

I use tmobile anyway

swoosh

iTrader: (5)

brother, that compliment coming from you means a lotttttt....

your car is awesome and your WORK is GODLY

talking about Turbo, I was considering it a while back but am not sure how I will be able to put the power down....being light, I spin when I hit Vtec in 3rd gear LOL....but I would love to have a turbo setup like yours under the hood.....maybe someday

I actually have something for you....lets just say its a drawing and would like to know if its possible .... will send you a PM with my contact info

and yezzir....I have been working irregular hours recently....usually I am home by 6 and spend some time with the wifey/hit the gym/goof around LOL...

tmobile is gonna be sold bro...one or the other big fish is gonna engulf it

MEKO

iTrader: (1)

I'll pick your brain at some point, Anil...since you have the inside scoop. Sprint contract coming up in August...not sure what phone we're going with. Might even switch carriers...

Sounds like an interesting system you work for.

J.

And holy fk...that is going to be a tight fit is right...
Go see Rex, have him help you remove your front fenders and just cut out a huge section of the rear. Weight savings!

iTrader: (5)

nah Meko....got back home....left work at 8:30-ish...home by 8:50...asleep by 9 LOL....just woke up, had some lunch, checked some work emails to make sure everything is running fine...will go back to sleep now LOL

Austin, funny thing is, you made me think LOL....

Jeremy...sure thing, anytime....well if you wanna stick with Sprint, I can talk to my manager and see if I can extend out the Friends and Family...$45-ish for unlimited everything
And yeah, I have been thinking around multiple options....might be my only change to flare out the fenders....

Less phone torque, more wheel pics

swoosh

iTrader: (5)

I am not sure if I want to commit to doing fender work since I do want to run a 245/40 tire....I still have to hear back from this one body shop and depending on that, I will make my final decision....If I were to run a 215 tire, the rims would have been on by now....

Wheels are WedsSport TC105n...specs are 17x9 +10

vill0169

iTrader: (4)

knew it lol

I would love those wheels someday

swoosh

iTrader: (5)

hahaha....Thanks Rex....

Love the wheels....they are soo light....they are right at 16lbs with centercaps and valve stems....

CLtotheTL32

iTrader: (3)

YES! I've always loved those wheels. Excellent choice Anil

Wacker

Couldn't imagine a wheel that light. :sheesh:

swoosh

iTrader: (5)

Thank you Tyler....yeah, these wheels have been on my list since a while

I wanted to get the 17x8.5 rpf1 but they just look soo smal in 17's....

Thanks John...the +10 makes it right around 16lbs....if you go with the +25 or +32, you will be around the 15.4lb mark

maharajamd

iTrader: (1)

Great choice Anil!

Wacker

I see +25 in your future!!!!

swoosh

iTrader: (5)

Thanks Chad

John...am not sure if the +25 will work....

I measure the inside clearance (from the rim to the suspension components and the clearance is right around an inch...so 25mm and the the +25 will sink in 15 mm....so I got ~10mm of clearance and the 245/40 tire will take up another 5-7mm....so rather than a hit and miss, I might just go with the 17x8.5 +32...

unless, I am measuring something wrong LOL

Wacker

Don't ask me. I bought my wheels 2nd hand without knowing specs and had to run a 15mm spacer in front and 20mm in rear to not look sunken in. I like how it ended up looking though.

swoosh

iTrader: (5)

^^^ haha....I knew these will stick out....but didnt expect them to poke that much....

now again, I think they will "sink" in when I lower the car since am running some neg camber....but then again, I dont want to buy tires hoping they will "sink" in LOL

Undying Dreams

iTrader: (3)

Yum yum, yum! Those wheels look fantastic! I hope you can keep them! if not, get the same wheel with a higher offset

swoosh

iTrader: (5)

Thanks Austin....

I thought we were suppose to get some interior/nav/tablet updates or something...

Get on it!

swoosh

iTrader: (5)

Chad, I have been slacking....

everything has arrive and I have relocated the battery as well....I need to get off my ass and finish the project....

I am just waiting for a navi info screen

Undying Dreams

iTrader: (3)

That mod adds weight.

It would be a stupid mod

Rims first anyway!

swoosh

iTrader: (5)

I deleted the radio so it offsets to be equal....but yes, I do have couple more weight reduction mods....these mods will also lower the center of gravity....the lower CG will make it handle better I guess...

will it be noticeable to a noob like me....NOPE
will I have evidence to prove like it did....NOPE
will I mention the handling has gotten better...MOST LIKELY

Undying Dreams

I saw your comment in the 3G Ramblings thread, you getting some racing ISC's?

swoosh

iTrader: (5)

^^^ I already have ISC N1's installed....been 10K miles LOL....

I sold the Teins locally and he still has to pick them up....I was messing with Tyler that I can "resell" them to him LOL

"but it was funny haan" (not sure if you have seen the stand up show by Gabriel Iglesias)....

Undying Dreams

iTrader: (3)

So what is the new mod to make it lower?

swoosh

iTrader: (5)

^^^ that is one way of thinking about it....

another way is to reduce the weight above the CG....so that will make the CG lower right

I have been experimenting with seat height and looks like am going to lower the height of the seat by 1 inch (am looking into modding the bracket) and after that, remove the headliner and couple other things....

Hopefully, I will be able to loose ~20-25 lbs...couple that with 11lbs/corner for rims/tires and we have ~65-70lbs lost....I should be in the lower 2900's after these mods

Undying Dreams

iTrader: (3)

Might need to lower the car more hehe, it will sit higher after taking weight off, right?

swoosh

iTrader: (5)

^^^ well if I adjust the preload to where I want it and lower the car completely, because of the (light) weight the car sits a lot higher LOL....hence I have to mess with the preload....

also if you see up, just 1 jack up front will jack up the full side of my car hahaah....

Lets see how this goes....

vill0169

iTrader: (4)

psh, you're not light til you jack one corner and THREE come up with it haha...It's sorta a PITA for me these days more than anything.

Fuck...not going to be able to quietly celebrate your wack ass old rims anymore. So sad. On another note...on your way to being the lightest and sexiest nbp. Awesome selection.
