yes i know you got equips. lol i meant that when i thought you were gettin the vs-xxs that i changed my mind and now i like the ones im looking at so much that i dont wanna go back lol. when are you supposed to get your wheels

Tomorrow, btw that was hilarious on how big of a yawn you had going on in your civic on your way to work as I drove by lol. Looked as if you were gonna swallow your dash hahaha

:001_005:hahaha i saw you in front of me and then i passed you. i didnt think you saw me. i was actually off today though... you should let me know if youre gonna be doing anywork to your car in the next week or 2. i need to wirk on something haha

I actually might be installing some coilovers very very soon. I will let you know. Plus my wheels should be in today, if so I will call you.

ah... im broke again haha.

heres one of my little side projects. :)

So i just ordered my RE Type wing from CS! I should have it middle of next weekish and i can promise pictures.:001_005:

SWEET!!!! Any luck finding engine parts??

Nice - cant wait to see it...

i havent started sourcing engine parts yet. im thinkin i might just have PR build me one or maybe try to get ahold of another guy. i think the next thing im gonna buy is my coilovers so i can sell the tokicos and the eibachs. and then im gonna get my front hubs. :001_005: i should have enough money saved up here in the next couple months get the coilovers. found a really grand price on some BCs.:willy_nilly:

PR??

Awe come on bro, lets build one. You will save some major $$$ going that route. AND dont tell me you are too busy (single dude ...cough.... cough..no responsibility..cough...cough ;))!! My offer still stands if you want to build it together.

Yeah Ii am trying to sell my Tokico's as well on the other club. I am going the Stance CO route, BC is still a consideration if I can't find the Stance for less then 1300 shipped.

Pics of that wing when it gets in!! :)

Pineapple Racing. i dunno im sure id rather just build it. And i probly will cause then i can buy parts as i go which will be easier finacially. lol im not too busy i guess. well i wont be in the summer anyway but i am going to 7stock this year. already makin the plans.
and i willl fo sho be postin pics of the wing when i get it.

COOL! Wish I could go to SStock BUT I will be busy again come Sept when our second baby is born. I think of this summer being my last little bit of free time for a good two years lol.

What does Pineapple charge??

well it depends on how much new engine parts i want them to use. i got a rough estimate from them a couple months ago but i cant remember what it was exactly. it was well over 2k though.

pics of the RE type wing!!! it fits great! ill barely have to do anything to it to get it to fit perfectly!

and here is one more..

Nice.

That makes the pants a tight!!

Update???????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ??????????????????????

i have some pics to post. nothin real exciting yet but the car is going in the booth this week so i can cut in the door jams and paint the bay. :) then ill have more pics. i did get my front and rear bumper covers primed and ill have the wing ready soon as well. probly on monday.

im a wiii bit worried... i couldnt find my camera before i came back to shelby ...... kinda sick to my stomach a bout it

about what?

i cant find my digi cam.. im hopin i left it in my tool box at the school

Oh...i thought something happened to the car and you wanted to show the "damage" with the camera. I am an idiot....

no worries. car is fine. bumpers are primed wing is primed ill be sprayin base coat in the jams this week

i just "sprayed" my base coat.........:rofl::rofl::rofl::leaving:

heres a few more pics. i mixed my paint today. oem mazda white water pearl.

A few pics, I only see one :dunno:

OK, I have a serious question as I've debated this a few times... and this is not meant to sound like a prick even though it might

How long did it take you to tape everything up? I like the tin foil idea btw. Don't you think it would be quicker to remove everything rather than tape it up, remove it, and still not get paint on everything?

eh sorry i was havin technical difficulties.. ill have the rest up tomorrow. the file sizes were too big and they did nt save the first time.


ttt. are you talking about removing the wiring harness on the drivers side? or somethin else? no offense taken. it didnt take me long to do any of that actually.

i just realized i didnt really answer your question. the tape or remove thing kinda comes down to what it is. like door handles and exterior trim pieces MUST be removed if you want the best quality possible. It would have been easier to remove the harness but in my case i didnt have time to do it be for i got it in the shop sooo.... aluminum foil was my friend :)

Gotcha, yeah I always remove things that can be removed. The harness is easy, takes only a few minutes, the AC lines and such as well, just curious why you tapes instead fo removed.

ya i hear ya. i really would have liked to take EVERYTHING out of the bay but when i got it in the body shop my instructor didnt really want me to mess with it just cause of a possible mess. i.e. brake mc making a mess. and i wasnt sure about how in depth taking that harness would be so i left it in. ill post the rest of those pics after i get off work. and FINALLY ill be spraying my door jams and engine bay tomorrow. i know ive been talkin about it for a while now :beatdeadhorse5: but it is going to happen in the morning.

heres the pics i meant to post

Sweet.... looks good man. Cant wait to see it all sprayed. When will you be completing the rest of the car's paint, installing the wing, etc?

i finish painting the jams today. here about a half hour actually. (ill post pics tonight) and then ill sand down the rest of the body and i should be spraying the bumpers, wing and the body at the same time.. i m guessing next week.:001_005:

first 2 pics are of the first stage of basecoat. second 2 are of the pearl stage. hopefully you can see it. it looks sexy in person.

oh shit that looks good even in the picture. Love it bro!

Nice gonna come by and see it in person on Tues.

so quick update.. nothin to exciting. i got the body block sanded today. first with 220 then with 320 and then 500 on a DA. i am gonna have to spot prime a couple places but it shouldnt be a big deal. ill post a couple pics tomorrow of the spots. should be in paint next week. turns out im gettin screwed on my taxes this year so i wont be able to get my coilovers just yet... .:( hopefully within the next month or so.
