damn I'm sorry guys, the guy quits this week... I tried to call him and get a set for Clark but he said they were the last set in stock. But on the bright side I get mine as soon as I get back to Dallas. Any of you guys heard any good stuff on those S-03s?

This is the best part of my job! Last night, we opened up a new pool in the east side of McKinney. The slide was a deal I helped get funded from a donation of $100,000 after we had to cut it because of pricing issues. The area is a poorer area of town and this is a huge investment in their summer fun! And we got it open for the Forth of July weekend!!!
Inferno and the City Manager talking...
Infeno says something he shouldn't and the City Manager tries to throw Inferno out of the pool...
What? The slide isn't open yet? It is now...
Apparently the City Manager didn't want to go into the water...

So I'm looking at my sister's web page (she lives in Chicago) and I see the following:
We decided to go see the Crazy Horse Memorial and a road trip was born.
Next stop, Schaumburg, to switch cars. Thew had generously offered the use of his M3 -- whoo hooo!!! Here it is, next to Devil's Tower, and the drivers too...
When we first traded cars, the BMW didn't seem like a good idea, because it was raining, and all fogged up and you couldn't see out the back. But we had faith and soon the sun was shining and the top was down and it was clear this car made the trip! Even driving through Nebraska was fun. This car seems to be happiest when it's going over 100. Somehow we were spared tickets but there were a couple close calls in WY. We put 2969 miles on that car -- next stop, oil change!
Day three we overslept, then headed North to Thermopolis. It was during this stretch that we had our only encounters with the law. I got followed about 10 miles by one Wyoming trooper, and Melissa was pulled over shortly after that by another who clocked her at 80 mph.
He gave us a warning in honor of the national holiday, making sure we knew which holiday it was (mother's day). Then he proceeded to tell us about our destination (Thermopolis) and how he likes to take his kids there to play in the water parks in the summer. He told us to slow down, that we would stick out like a sore thumb in that car. Melissa used cruise control for a while after that.
I can't believe it! My sister took a road trip in an M3 and talked her way out of tickets. Damn!
They actually made it to all kinds of neat places, it sounds like...

sounds fun, especially in an M3.
Speaking of roadtrips, I can't wait until Aug! I'm flying out to LA to drive back here with a friend of mine. We're gonna go everywhere. Where gonna stop in Vegas, the Grand Canyon, maybe some Parks in southern Utah. Then on to Santa Fe for a couple days. Then maybe Carlsbad caverns on the way home. I can't wait!!!!

Yep, I can't wait to get back to Vegas. I was there last summer, but only for about a day and a half. And I was there with my little bro. who's under 18. This time should be much better.

1. Power is 12V
2. The Battery is new and is charged.
3. The amp and head unit are approxamately 10' to 12' from the batt.
4. I think the amp is 50 x 4 or 100 X 4. i don't know the amperage.
5. The amp is driving 4 - 8 ohm 2 way speakers no subs.
6. I think that only the head unit is shuting down.
7. There is no motor boating ( no pun) it just shuts off. I lower the volume and it comes back on. There is a red LED that comes on when the head unit shuts down.
8. I am useing pre outs from head to amp.
I have a direct 12g stranded hot and grnd from batt to amp.
I will try your suggestions. Did I shed any more light on the sittuation? The things that have changed or the Batt and head unit. Both new.
Chris P. did you see this? Went to takr the boat out yesterday and the batt was dead.

From the sounds of it, you only have speakers hooked to the amp, and none to the radio. So the only connections on that head unit should be +12v constant (yellow), -12V (black), +12v switched (red), and the remote turn on lead to the amp (blue).
Did you try disconnecting the amp to see if the head unit still powers down? THe Alpine may be more sensitive to current drain, and the amp may pull more than the head unit likes (but not likely). How is the head unit connected to the amp for signal? Patch cords (low level) or speaker wires (high level). If high level, there may be the problem depending on how it's wired.
Hit me back, see if we can't figure this out.

I was in my mom's car. I had to take a TV back to Circuit City, and it wouldn't fit in mine. I would have honked or something, but right as I pulled up in the left turn lane, you were already cruising through the intersection.

I hope these guys have good news about my shock today.
If not, I'm gonna be one unhappy camper.
Danny & Civic, I might need ya'll to swing by Zeal and kick some ass while you're down there if things don't start shaping up.

well, endless/zeal is truly a JDM manufacturer.
I guess the California site is strictly a sales office with a repair shop on the side. Apparently they keep limited parts on hand, and I just happened to need a part they didn't have.
But they really didn't make that clear when I first talked to them... bastards...He just now told me where it was coming from. This is just frustrating more than anything.

I am sure one day, the air and wheels will come off the CL, and I will go back to factory. Probably if I break anymore wheels or if the air ride stats screwing up

yeah, They are gonna throw the N20 in there and I'm gonna get it this wednesday or so so I can get the trunk measurements and start plotting out the new trunk design.
The stock shock is already back in place on the front passenger side.
I'm just gonna drive it home like that, won't really be able to drive it around tho...
but at least I'll have it so I can detail the fuck out of it.
