We should do that. We are like the middle meeting spot.

I wish more people would come out though. Some people are just stuck up.(I know of 1 here in VA) Everyone that I've met on this forum are cool as hell though.

LOL. We gonna have to park everyone on the grass, backyard, front yard, and side yard and on the driveway.

All I really need to do is clean up the interior and make it look like new.

The carpets need some massive cleaning. Seats and dash board need some cleaning and conditioning.

Other than that, everything is jet set radio go.

I'm trying to finish everything tonight. Worst case scenario it will be done tuesday. I hope.

Headers has yet to come. I fucking hate waiting for shit. And it's that one part that I have to have.

Other than that. Everything is done.

If it ain't done by tommorow. I'm riding with someone.

Those bolts suck, I didn't even turn that hard and I was using a 6 point.

I got new ones anyways. Stronger ones. The bar itself though is...

No biggie. I'll post vids.

If we ever throw a meet big enough we could do an east coast thing and you can see it then.

Alright well the headers got here... one problem..they are crap. I don't recommend anyone get these headers off ebay.

That is unless you want to Modify. My XS ones were much better but my friend has those on his car now.

First. I needed that jog in the pipe for the 6-speeds.
Second.. The pipe is about 1" short of connecting the front and rear and hangs down 2" below the oil pan.
Third... They are just so damn small compared to the XS. The inlets and outlets were puny.

So I had my friend Paul rework the whole damn thing and reweld it.
