Looks like its turning into quite a party. I think I might have to plan a trip down there around the meet, I'll probably head down there friday morning if any other bay area folks want to caravan.

This is what they have going on for the nsx meet

Time:
1:00pm until ?

Activities:
We will have a video game tournament (on a 65" DLP TV!) and a foosball tournament.

On display will be OVER 700(correct,five hundred) model cars ranging from 1/18th scale on up.. This is a must see, as George has graciously opened his house to us.

Eats will be pizza and sodas, so bring cash!

RSVP to me thru PM only. Include BBQ in the subject header.

PS, If you want to sign up for the video game tournament(car racing) and or the foosball tournament, please RSVP with your first and second choice. Depending on how many people sign up, we may only have time for one game per person. Foosball may be broken up into teams if there is a lot of sign ups, so please choose a teammate for foosball.


Well I still go to both possibly maybe you guys first then them second.....

Did you check your sway-end links? and the tophat bolts?

Good luck.

Thanks for the DIY NiteQwill, wouldn't have been able to do it without your help. But I checked my end links and they were fine, rechecked all the bolts and everything was torqued to spec, but the top hat was crooked when I uncompressed the spring for the front left one. I figured it was because the spring wasn't aligned with the top hat or the strut so I did it again and made sure it was aligned but it was still the same. I checked to see if the springs in the front looked the same and they did and the struts are the same too! I couldn't figure it out so I just brought it in today, well yesterday now to get them to fix it. It's gonna run me $68 so that's not so bad. Can't wait to get it back though and to get my wheels on this week!

Yo Eddy, the place I get my alignments and suspension work done at does corner balancing for $10 per wheel. Is there a difference between that and what you're talking about with the other place?

Well this guy I go to is top notch.....plus its alignment (for lowered cars its around $100 already), corner weighting and balancing(so lets say $40). Call Darin at west end alignment and ask about the process and price. It might be cheaper for you. For me that was the cost because of the car.

Just had the worse experience at a wheel place. Brought my car in yesterday, he didn't fix it, didn't even start by the time i told him i needed it done by. So he said he'd finish it first thing tmrw. Told him I needed it by noon today and he still didn't finish so I left again! Went by after work and it was supposedly done, still not fixed when I just drove it around and my alignment is WAY off. Ended up arguin with him and i finally started raising my voice when he blamed the alignment problem on me! What is this bullshit?! I told him to fix the alignment so I could go home and he's like it'll be done tomorrow, then he yells at me and says I should respect him since he's older. I'm his fucking customer, he didn't even care to fix my car, I told him that it's been at his shop for 2 days already, and he said I don't give a shit! and continued going off on me and ended it by saying take your piece of junk and get out of my store. I was like wtf... grabbed my keys and started walking to my car just thinking fuck this I'm complaining to the BBB. Another customer comes up to me and asks me about what happened and shit. Fucking bullshit. So now nothing's fixed and my alignment's off real bad. FJREGKVAKEGJKEWGJAHKLJAK!!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't go there for an alignment tho, I went there for the suspension clicking and somehow they fucked up my alignment and he tried to put it on me. And he tried to tell me that the reason it was making the sound was because my front left spring wasn't putting enough tension on the top hat but the front right is fine and they're the same height... They look identical damnit! But neway, they reassembled the front left and the top hat is on straight now supposedly as they tell me. But who knows unless I take it apart and check.
