almost a 24 hours drive. i should know. i use to drive from there to here alot. but, i really enjoy the cruise from long beach to san francisco. that was fun. i took 101 along the coast line and it was really nice.

masagsxr · 03-03-2009, 12:57 AM

Christian: Daym what could he be doing. That car is almost split in half... He sure was lucky he walked away from it.I was thinking he got T-boned but it couldn't be from how it looks.. His car sure looks like it wrapped around somewhere. Lightpost maybe?

thanxx, but i dont think i will install them once i find yellow film to protect my fogs

and mark i think i might do gold rims on my blue car. They would look great w/ the yellow fogs

ey mixxer, u know my dad drove from maryland to california three times!!! and on one of those trips i was with him... its hell... that was when i was in jr high and was playing w/ my gameboy the whole time (i beat pokemon like twice during the 5 day trip)

masagsxr · 03-03-2009, 01:02 AM

Yeah.. what a shame. I'll say it again. Take it to the track. Way safer and you can go beyond your limits. No cops to worry about etc....

Mark_Dorman · 03-03-2009, 02:28 AM

Davis · 03-03-2009, 02:36 AM

So I spent $830 today. New pads + rotors, ss brake lines, front h&t endlinks, brass cable bushings, addco front sway, and sway reinforcement bracket.

I still need to get some legit Autox numbers and letters and then Christians manual steering rack... Weee.

Hmm lemme get your manual windows to while I'm at it.

deucegirl03 · 03-03-2009, 02:37 AM

yea, i havnt done that yet... the longest i drove was sd/lake elishore/pomona trip second to longest trip was going to sanfran, but we alternated drives between my friends

yea thats the one, but the side vents werent cut, i think they were body kit cuz the holes were larger than the stock ones

I think there are like 1mm or 2 mm films selling somewhere, but that should be plenty. (Im going for the yellow foglights w/ gold rims on my car, this was decided after i saw a si w/ yellow foglights hahaha)

Mark_Dorman · 03-03-2009, 11:36 AM

Dude Davis...you're as bad as I am. Hey...If you wanna do a manual window conversion I have black manual window door panels that I could hook you up with. I'd have to ask for your power ones in return though

. Why'd you decide to go with Addco???

Hey Christian...So what are you gonna do with the second black dash you picked up??? If it's in decent shape and you're not gonna use it can I buy it off you??? Also could you take a picture of the power window ecu and the connector that plugs into it?

Don't worry Ren...you'll have Denero for your Sombrero soon enough

. I wanna do a manual steering conversion now...but after my collar bone heals
