Sean....I know whats gonna happen....can i tell?

 

I have a porter cable buffer if you need one.

Sure

 

I might take you on that Buda; waiting on this rain to stop so that I can clean the car and figure out how much damage it is.

 

You can haz my porter cable if you want Abdul....ONCE MATT GIVES IT BACK

I might be borrowing Steve's LOL

 

Prep work is almost done, just have to bag the wheels. The main show should be happening tonight. Just have to make sure I have everything to operate the gun properly. Anyone coming over?

 

I will def try to stop by after gym....will text you Sean


btw KY, need to install heads on my car...find a weekend that works for your ass and come on over Beers and Pizza on moi !!!

 

Judging by all those colors your car is going to look like a bag of skittles

 

LOL, only the black, blue, and glossifier are for my car. The Green is for Heath's car, Orange for Curtis's, and the brown is for misc stuff. They came in the same shipment so I already had them sitting out. I have a lot more cans of dip that what is there.

 

is Sean the next Fonzi?

 

They make brown plasti dip?

 

Video!

 

Well... I do like Plasti Dip.
Camo Brown. I'm actually going to use it on a gutter drain splash plate that is lying in my landscaping (which has brown rubber mulch in it).

Dude, you do know that you can just get in your car and get over here and see it in person as I work on it. I have an extra mask and I need a camera man. Anil hasn't texted me yet so I don't know if he is coming over.

 

2nd coat is on.

 

2nd coat is on.

 

Whats different?

 

Repeat your name 5 times and see if that jogs your memory.

I'm actually really liking it. The condition of my paint with all the paint chips up front really had me down. This is making everything look so smooth and clean. I might even consider staying Matte Black instead of putting on gloss.

 

What is done to these said heads? And I'm stuck in OK till at least the middle of this coming month, and afterwards installing my SC ^^. Maybe the end of June ill take some time off and we can turn wrenches ^^

 

Wait, Anil was late? Say it ain't so

 

Port and Polish, pocket porting, type S cams, KMS Valvetrain....

I might be heading to the dyno, just to see where I stand....after the heads/MS3 ECU/Tune...will head to the dyno again....guess I will be done with the engine mods/interior at that point....

then rims and DONEEE !!!

atleast I made it there (and wasnt late) and took a video for him....while you were getting hair done? amidoingitrite?

 

Sean and whoever else, I saw at Walmart last night (the one close to me) sells Black/White/Glossifier for $6.97. Black is cheaper at HD by a buck or so, and the only other place I've see white is at Ace/westlake for like 9 bucks. It's the first place where I've seen Glossifier however and you don't have to pay DYC's outrageous shipping fees and wait for 2 weeks to get it.

 

Will the car run with different cams...? I'd be careful and possibly get the electronics squared away before pushing the car with an improper tune... All of that extra "flow" could lean it out and then, kaboom? Just my thoughts.

 

^^^ yup....I already have a tune from a Type S guy (since running Type S cams)....I am also upgrading the injectors to 440cc injectors from the RDX

so yeah lets get to wrenching soon....I would like to hit up the IA in Kentucky

 

And how are you going to use RDX injectors without some kind of ecu flash? Changing injector size pretty much requires this, as 440 is a far cry from the 240 stock injectors that I used to run.

 

^^^ MS3 that I mentioned in the above post is an ECU (Mega Squirt 3)....I am using that for tuning....you can specify the injector size and it manages the duty cycle...

 

You said duty

 

duty...not buuuuty

 

I see, well, be careful. I would be using EMS to get the most out of these mods while being safe, but that's obv more $$$

 

yeah no one nearby wants to tune the damn MS3....the guy helping me is in Canton, OH and will be coming for IA in Kentucky and hence I said, lets let it done before that

 

Y U NO AEM EMS Series II

 

Goddam tornado Sirens going crazy in STL. What about you guys?

 

We had nothing here last night. Hope you are safe and sound

 

Yeah, Kansas City seriously evaded all the severe weather. The surrounding states weren't so lucky.

So update on that 6MT TL:

My brother regretted selling the GS-R, so I gave it back it to him. Literally two days later after, a bone stock 6MT arose on Craigslist. A few phone calls and 400 miles later, I bought an all original, one owner '06 TL. The seller was very cool and seemed to truly love this car.

She just needed a thorough deep cleaning. The amount of dog hair in this car was astounding. The hair was literally in every conceivable nook and cranny.

 

Any plans this week to meetup/detail cars before the weekend activities? I'll pay for someone to buff my car/headlights

 

I would like to do that, but I probably would not have time till like maybe fri night after work to clean my car and headlights. BTW, there is a chance of thunderstorm on Sunday, is there a backup plan or are we still meeting at the Jaywolf?

 

Nice, you bringing it to the meet?

I did that last Fri and I still have to do Mel's sometime.

No backup plan that I'm aware of, I think it is a rain or shine event. It is too early to see what the weather will bring. The last 2 years we have had nice (but hot) weather for the Meet so hopefully we can make it 3

 

Matt, do you think your TL will remain clean till this weekend? I know you don't drive that car anyway but there is still dust in your garage that can accumulate on it!

 

Actually my car is dirty as hell right now I cleaned it before FF and drove it through some puddles and crap. Then I had to take it to work yesterday cuz I had a flat on the Vic I'm sure I'll clean it numerous times this coming weekend.

 

lol, that sucks man. I am probably going to clean mine sometime during week and then do some buffering of the scratches and really clean it on Fri before the storm rolls in!

 

The meet goes on-rain or shine.


The forecast is for rain late Sunday evening-not in the afternoon.

 

Matt, yeah, definitely going to make an appearance at the meet!

I have a porter cable adjustable speed buffer with pads and compounds. I've buffed headlights out before. Where are you located shoeface? I may not be able to do it this week, but I'd happy to do it some other time.
