Re: Cookout is close! Any major plans?
 

I painted all the mesh pieces on my car tonight. :)

Re: Cookout is close! Any major plans?
 

Maybe just get the car detailed and a new fender but my car is in shitty shape body wise so it doesn't really matter for me....:frown:

Re: Cookout is close! Any major plans?
 

Drop the car 2" with sportlines and kyb agx's

Put in energy suspension bushings (3 weeks to order and ontop of that FedEx needs help...)

change the rear end to a 4 bolt

POR 15 all the pieces that make up the rear

Clean up the wiring from the MS2 system and make it looks nice(yes, ms2 works!!) Tune it a little...

find a boost gauge to go over 20psi

Found a sun roof with a detachable switch from U pull, install that

Clean, wax, detail, drive, repeat...

Almost there...:1smiley.php:

Last year didn't make it but this year will be there!!:nod:

Anything else?!

Re: Cookout is close! Any major plans?
 

Red or yellow? :D

Re: Cookout is close! Any major plans?
 

Pink. Mark can't have the only pink paint at the Cookout!

Re: Cookout is close! Any major plans?
 

evo- get the 8an feed and return line installed and the pink fuel rail

talon- install a hot pink valve cover,and wash it

Re: Cookout is close! Any major plans?
 

Maybe if I don't have the gsx sold at that time I can have the second most ricer 2g there! I believe the #1 spot is still spoken for.

And on the talon I want to tuck the main wiring loom under the intake mani, that's about it. Oh yea and get my fuel pump rewired so it actually works reliably.

Switch to E85?:spin:

Welp Aside from some cleaning, I'm ready to rock for the cookout. When I started this thread last week, springs were at the back of my mind. Then look what happened! Heh!

Mynes Hood dampers installed (note, matches black car perfectly ;) ):

Took this shot this AM, NO other cars for hundreds of yards around me. Right after I took this pic, this douche in a tan CRV pulls up and literally parks right beside me, wrecking the shot. I was out of the car, camera in hand, crouched down and obviously taking pics. Actually, you can see him pulling in, just over the hood of the car:

So, I settled for this shot instead. Time to start cleaning her up, need to install my new pimpin' radiator hoses too (ugly bulge in one of them :( )

Looking good, Scheides!

My bumper and grill are getting painted right now. Then I just need to clean the engine bay, give the body a good wash and I should be ready. Sadly, I'm pretty sure I won't have enough time to fix my new hood and get it painted. :(

Re: Cookout is close! Any major plans?
 

Looks good! Scheides.. did you run it through a car wash? Your engine bay is dirttty too.

Re: Cookout is close! Any major plans?
 

Plans? Oh yeah, um... get it back on the road?

Re: Cookout is close! Any major plans?
 

Lookin good Scheides.

I will be getting my bumper and trim piece back today from Maaco. I will also be finishing up getting the setup back together as much as possible, and start trying to dial it in as best as I can for the Dyno Day that Saturday.

Re: Cookout is close! Any major plans?
 

Well the 96 Talon Tsi that everyone knows about is actually running now. So i'll be showing up with it all cleaned up and waxed. Also hoping to give everything under the hood a good polish.

Re: Cookout is close! Any major plans?
 

plans for me before the cookout. I will arrange by car:
Red Stealth:
Install DNP hardpipe kit
Clean
Samco Radiator hoses
Just using the red one for the show

White Stealth:

Swear alot while installing said tranny
Clean and drive it just for the dyno day and friday night dinner.
