Yes, I got all my parts off of the forum either from Execerate-Josh or from the Blackmarket. Also Bob from Naked Wrench installed my pro-cats. He is very fair as far as pricing is concern.

Millenium closed down in Norfolk about a year ago. I went there before but never got any work done. They had alot of civics and other cars in the lot getting worked on. I never knew they were still in business.

I didn't see Comptech Supercharger on there! Just kidding.
Now Mike, do you think you would have done all these mods if you hadn't found this site? Just curious b/c I don't want to be the guy your wife hates b/c I told you about the site.

Somehow I think this may be it for this car (okay.. MAYBE eventually brakes.. but who really needs those anyway??? Stopping is no fun!)
Don't worry Jeff.. I'm pretty sure she just hates me. lol She knew I was already looking for mods the day I bought the car. You just made it easier.
It just seems like it is going to take forever to get parts.
I may only have the sound system done for memorial day guys.. sorry!

I am in on a group buy for the pulley.. still waiting to hear more on that...
It looks like no jpipes for another month.. I am calling them tomorrow to be sure and hopefully completing my order for the exhaust and everything at that time.
If I have time I will also order the rest tomorrow through excelerate..
Is it just me or is ordering parts a pain in the a$$??? I just want to click.. enter my card.. and go.. or better yet.. just drop off my car and pay for it when it's done. I have no patience with this stuff.. seriously.. none.
Once I get it all I am just going to take it all to Parth's guy at CARS inc and have him wrench it out.. The price is right and the quality/trust seems to be there.
I just can't wait.. I AM SO PSYCHED!!!!!
BTW.. Why couldn't we have Skyline on the 21rst.. that would have been PERFECT!!!! I am so bummed!!!

Man, I wish I could do both the car show and the Skyline meet. I will have to see which one is cheapest and go that route maybe. My budget is pretty tight right now. I did have my heart set on the Skyline meet though. But I would be spending more going up there, especially if I hit the Skyline Drive, with paying for gas and food. Just not sure what I want to do at this point.

I really hate the idea of stealing people away from skyline, but I guess you make a good point.. if people don't have the gas, cash, or time to make it to skyline.. then the Childrens House of Hope Car Show can be another good local option. I chose it because I promised the head of the charity (Joe) that I would be there.. (and he is helping to promote the Memorial Day Show for us.) Oh yeah.. and there will be custom Harleys there too!!!! (Hard for me to miss!)
Maybe we can organize another late summer skyline meet for the crew?

I added the rear sway bar and ATLP race pipe (3rd cat delete).
I must say Josh from excelerate is the man! He hooked me up since I was ordering everything at once. (He even beat your guy on the Tein's Parth) ATLP tworked with me too, but I have to wait a while for the exhaust parts unfortunately. I am dying to get this done!!!
Audio should be done (re-done) by next week!
BTW.. Jeff.. do you have a comfortable couch? I may need to sleep on it. lol

Anyone here ever wanted to run their car on the 1/4 mile? I was curious because there's a track day coming up and was thinking I may want to go but would be more opt to going if some of you guys wanted to head up too. I get emails from the guys at DTP racing and they are the one hosting the event. Let me know what you guys think. Here is the email.
Message:
Just another reminder, there will be another private track rental on June 13 at Va. Motorsports Park. 9-4:30, both lanes. Price is $100, can be paid at Rocket Performance or DTP.
It's 2 hours away according to google, so probably less than that.

Here's another one I forgot about. I registered on the Lexus site when the ISF was still a concept so I got an email invite to this event. I forgot about it because the closing on the house we were trying to buy was on the weekend that I would want to go, but the house fell through, so now I don't have to worry about it. Looks pretty sweet...anyone interested in this?

How many times do you get to line up for $100? If you get several runs it's not that bad. If you only get one.. well I would say that might be a bit steep. I really like the idea of going to a track with our cars.
Even if we don't all run our cars it can still be fun.. we can do our our version of "Pass Time"!
#1117
I'm gonna give the shop a call and find out some more info for the track day. I agree though, $100 for just 1 or 2 runs is not worth it. There's another place that will be there that day as well. Rocket performance I think is the name of it. The Lexus thing is free if you do it on Saturday or Sunday, you just have to pay to get there. Seems like fun, but not sure if it's worth it.

Mike Have U Rode In Any Ones Car With The Atlp Exhaust ? (type-s)
The Reason I Ask Is Its Really Fucking Always There, The Noise That Is, I Guess The Word Is Drone. And U Said U Use It For Work. Just Thought I Give U A Heads Up, If U Want We Can Go For A Ride In My Car Memorial Weekend. But U Will Love The Power From All Those Mods. J-pipe Rocks.

When I bought the Comptech exhaust for the 2G, the drone was more than I could handle and ended up putting silencers in. It actually sounds perfect to me with a silencer in one side and nothing in the other.
