Not too bad! Working on my new project the FA5 but would love to get my hands on another EH.

I hear you might be in the market for one?

 

Hell ya!!!

I might have to stop in more often even if I don't have one anymore

I might post up some pics I found the other day of my EH!

 

Good to see you in here. Post up them oldies.

 

I'll probably do that tonight as soon as I get home

I miss my EH... I should make a sticker like that and put it on my FA5 lol

 

Throw up the pics!

I drove my hatch to work this morning. First time driving it since I purchased it back in mid March. So much fun driving these cars even stock lol Felt great.

 

I pushed my hatch out of the garage last weekend, then pushed it back in!

 

Post pic bro.

Lol.

 

oh dang! I fixed my car! I have been battling a rev cut issue for a couple years now. turns out my cam regrind was the cause...

on half the boost its making more power all over. it used to have traction issues at 22+psi at the high end of the rpms....I now am having traction issues at the top of first, long shift into 2nd to gain traction and mash second at 5k it loses traction and the tires start screaming for help...lol and thts on 12-14psi not to mention part throttle, cruising and idle are all waaaaaaay better. underhood temps are also down! should be about 250-300whp like this...definatly fun

cant wait for gridlife!!!!

 

 

are you going to gridlife brad? you can be my instructor and tell me how much I suck and then help make me better

 

No idea, probably not. A lot going on house, baby, Bailynn's softball. I have sort of been lost for time lately.

I wouldn't tell you that you suck, I'd be trying to correct as much as possible. A lot of that is upon the driver though. Go in with an open mind and you'll learn. Go in thinking that you know it all, you'll go home pissed. Be the slowest one on the track, but as long as you leave with a lot of knowledge gained, you were one of the best ones out there.

 

I have an open mind...im going to learn...I have been doing late night cramming with knowledge..lol...learning flags, watching gingerman videos, reading hpde 101 type stuff. getting myself mentally prepared so I can focus more on driving than classroom basics like flags and what they mean. im well aware I have everything to learn. but yes, im going in as "I suck", I will listen if you teach me in the way of stig, type of attitude :D

if ya make it awesome, if not I understand, I too am a family man and we will catch up on the next one

 

Happy Monday folks.
I <3 My Squad.

 

looks naked without the lip



had a blast, did a autoX this weekend, nice long course .9x miles lots of fast sections. car did awesome, I pushed myself pretty good as well as the car. those nt01's are amazing, I was still able to get them loose and squeeling in most corners so I must have been doing something right.

also got to do a ride along with a formula d pro-am....who found a way to drift the entire course. amazing experience

 

Finally getting a chance to order/pick up some parts for the hatch this week . Also going to take a look at a investment property later today. Got a busy week coming up.

 

Whats next for your car jesses

Happy birthday Gabusfaceeee

 

I bought the car with a exhaust leak coming from the mid pipe. I'm picking up a SIR axle back this week, and having a exhaust shop make a mid pipe to bolt up to the axle back.

There's also some noise coming from the front end when I make semi sharp turns. Sounds like the tie rod end need to be replaced. So I'm replacing both the inner, and outer tie rods on both sides with brand new OEM ones. While I'm down there ill check out the rest of the suspension to see if anything else should be replaced. I removed the AC a few weeks ago so I'm picking up the rubber grommet that fills the hole on the firewall where the evaporator used to be. Also plan on getting a sway bar, coilovers, and most importantly an alarm within the next few weeks.

Btw...when you're ready to get rid of those Regas make sure you let me know

 

only action shot from the autoX I have come across




so the e.s. rta bushings I got I just found out are shitty and cause the suspension to bind up...so I did a bunch of research

hardrace make good ones and tons of great reviews

my guy is telling me to go with the whitelines and that he likes them better, they have great reviews but just not an overwhelming amount to reviews like the hardrace

im leaning towards the whitelines but what your thoughts

 

Holy Moly I forgot all about this place.

 

SCREW SUSPENSION!!!!

well the driver side was aout an hour job to swap to rear discs

passenger side has been 3 days...two of which were 2am nights

rta bushing bolt broke off in the frame rail and rear upper control arm bolt broke....I ended u cutting a hole in the frame rail and cutting out the stock bolt and welding in a bolt, then patching the frame rail...and now I am 90% done drilling out the upper control arm and then I will be tapping the hole....sooooooooooo much left to do before gridlife
