Talk about whatever is on your mind with other ITR owners. I think we need one of these... so keep it clean or this will get locked.

Mods - Step away from the lock please. It's a good way to keep all the other threads clean of misc discussion, and keep them on topic.

Rules: If you wouldn't want your children reading it then DON'T POST IT. We have young people on these boards too.

I figured this will go well, or get filled with a ton of cats or other stupid pictures. Hopefully people will be more mature and just have misc conversations where you dont get the "SEARCH" or "ITS BEEN COVERED" reply. Just post whatever is on your mind.

 

Nw project: I'm building my new keyboard stand, I broke my current one... Anyone have ANY idea where I can get a custom made spring? Say 36"-42" (Haven't decided yet), and 6" inner width, 7" outer width? Any idea if Eibach does custom springs?

It doesn't have to support much weight, my keyboard controller is one of the lightest made (Yamaha CBX-K2), so it'll only have to support a few pounds, with enough resistance to stand up straight without a problem. But it can't be so stiff that I can't bend over with it.

I was thinking of using a front motorcycle spring from one of the arms, but they're too small in width/diameter to support the weight, even though the one I tested was a pretty stiff spring rate. The length was good, but the spring needs to be wider.

 

I think this is a good idea

I'm looking for a new job and it's frustrating haha

 

Today I got a point deducted for posting the Type R asshat award pic in the "Integra Type R vs the World" thread. I felt the loss of the point was a tad bit extreme to say the least. The thread was bunk right from the start and is now locked. I hope I get my 1 point back. I feel like such a criminal all the sudden.


Doostur, I did not know that you are Puerto Rican?

 

^ That sucks.

Ditto, anyone in the IT field have suggestions? I have over 5yr experience working the field, yet I still have 3 semesters in class.

To keep it R related, if I can get my pay back up (It has switched to being paid per billable hour) I could keep my R

The last time I saw KMFDM in concert, they had big springs attached to their keyboards. It was pretty cool.

I'm in the IT field as well. Just got my MS in MIS so it looks like we are in the same boat.
Also if I get a new job that pays more $$$ I will get another R (track *****)

Yep, thats what it looked like.

 

Just bought a jdm momo sw today and turns out its for a ctr (anyone wanna buy it). On a lighter note, went auto-x today and got 2nd in SI.

Yea I was born in Puerto Rico. Moved to the states when I was 7ish. I made a Puerto Rico cars thread (In appearence section) because I'd like to see if some of the people I knew would pop up. I know if you see my pictures I look like a white boy from Ireland , my mom is dark skinned and I came out white haha. And NO i'm not the milk mans son or adopted etc etc (heard them all). We also have a home in Connecticut, and the Marines have me everywhere, from SC, NC, FL, CA, Japan.

Here are some pics from my last vacation:

Who's KMFDM? Pogo started that ****, ******* Chris Vrenna copied him, and a few other bands I've seen have copped it too... Now it's my turn.

Wood's just too heavy to handle.

I know a few Jeep guys in town, I'll ask them if they have their stock springs. Thanks for the suggestion.

Dude, if you could do that for me, that would be awesome! There are no spring shops in this area, I've called EVERYWHERE. Every fabrication shop, every custom race shop, no one has any idea.

 

hmmm, that these kinds of threads shouldnt be allowed in the itr forum... theres a general talk part of this forum.... and ive gotten banned for posting a semi itr related issue... not fair.

 

hell yeah now thats a drug dealers house!

 

^ I'd rather talk about misc stuff with the ITR community (friends/fellow owners etc) - sorry

If your talking about being first with putting a spring on a keyboard then, I dunno. But KMFDM had a big hand in starting the Industrial music genre that you are speaking of. I'll be more tha happy to give you some CD's to download if you want.

 

The difference: The Type-R section members, are a bit more of a community than some of the other sections... Not trying to sound like an elitist *******, but it's true.

 

^ Agreed, alot of people in the ITR community have met each other. Keeps everything at a more personal level.

 

Everyday I wonder if I should keep the R or sell it for a car I can actually enjoy anytime and anywhere....

I think every R owner feels the same way. Something less stolen, with more power, etc etc. No other car has what I'm looking for, thats why I'm still here Only issue I had was that I need more power and I took care of that. Best of both worlds

 

I just moved back down to South Florida this weekend, and I forgot how horrible the drivers are here.
In the last day I've almost been hit twice.

I wonder how the R community down here. Any one in the Miami area?
