Why? I like your 2. Sorry for not calling you this weekend Tin, like I posted earlier, I am sick. I'll let you know when I am better and we can get working on your 2.

Hey does anyone have a good hookup for some tools: compressor (new/used) and some accessories? If so, let me know. Thanks.

Seriously, do they not realize that it is 2am Friday after all the drunk jacka**es are on their way back from clubbing/drinking/bar hopping/etc. and cops are everywhere? Not only do they rev, but they dart back and forth. I just shake my head at their stupidity.
I guess if they can't have it, they'll try to give you a ticket with them We should totally go on a cruise at some canyon somewhere... "NOT ACH" There are tons of cops there and i'm sure they'll pull one or more of us for something.

ACH = Angeles Crest Highway

Ahhh... that guy from CL never replied huh.... I'll keep an eye out. I received a catalog from Sears yesterday and was looking at some of the new compressors they have. Daym the one I wanted is over $1K hahahaa... 80gal 175psi ..... Will need to rewire my outlet here tho for 240volts. The 60gal was only 150psi and is for $650 but it does support 110volts outlet.

No he didn't. Thanks Mixxer. There is another one on there right now. Maybe your brother wants it. It is like yours for $150. I did see the sale that Sears is having right now. The bigger compressors are nice, but I am not spending that kind of money. Haha.

Yeah it was too much $$$. I was hoping the 80gal one was for $649 and I would consider it. I want to run a line around the garage for easy access instead of pulling 100ft hose all the way out. I'd also would love to have one of them portable engine lift .... Daym I need my own place with a big back yard and no HOA crap hehehehe

Dude Tin...You know I'll help you do the color change. It's a bit of work, but half of it is just getting everything together. So far my costs haven't been too high but I've spent money in places i didn't need to trying different things. I still think yours looks really nice. At least you don't have the ugly black side moldings . Just save up ~$500, buy some spray paint, and start collecting the parts. It's taken me 2 months of parts collecting to make it this far. As long as you just want to do a cloth interior it'll be pretty cheap.

I have a feeling only Mixxer reads my posts.



If you guys want to see pics head over to the AutoX section. I must revive that section!

Haha thanks guys. I wish my camera recorded my last two runs. You guys should come out! Autox meet anyone? In the video I stayed in 2nd gear the whole time, I was bouncing off the rev limiter.

So I have good news!! MINDY IS NO LONGER FOR SALE!!!!!! AutoX has revived my passion and motivation for her. Next on the list; Front Sways, H&T Endlinks, Full bj brake job aww yeah. Maybe even upgrade to 91 turbo calipers. Power steering -> manual conversion. Oh and new wheels!

YAY!!! Davis that makes me happy! Mindy and Morgan can still be friends . I'll help you with all that too . The front brakes will help a lot with the brake fad and the sways will be nice. I'm gonna be doing the same thing for morgan. Front TRD sways, Urethane bushings all around, New SB end links, new ball joints all around (have those), new Tie Rod End Links (have those), maybe the manual steering conversion (if you can convince me it's a lot better), and Konis .

So I just ordered $600 worth of stuff and going to be ordering TRD front sways from Aaron in a bit... I don't know if keeping her is a good decision now.

Hahhahahaa.... I've seen a set of sway bars pretty cheap on ebay... You know you dont always have to go to our sponsor just for supporting. Making $$$ is tough right now, get it where you can get it cheap.

Oh Mindy and Morgan are going to be more than friends, they're going to be twins! Sort of. I'm going to theme up my car for AutoX. I'mma paint her white and make her look like a Yoshi Egg!
