Fact. Girl's like 3000GT's\Dodge Stealth's way more then DSM's :)
oh sure...if you're talking about what they'll LIKE more. i was talking about what girls are more likely to DRIVE. a mint 3/s is like driving a ferrari/lambo. you'll get a LOT of envious looks & lustful stares.
I mounted up and re installed all of the molding onto my freshly painted front bumper.
And yes, I will be removing my inner ricer decals before she goes up for sale.

If the brand(s) are being used, what is so rice about it?
Changed my back brakes and organized the tools in the trunk to make space for my gear for the NG trip.
one of the courtesy drivers at the dealership i work at backed into mine with a golf cart. nice scratch.
Gave her a good wash, been a few weeks, thinking about putting the chromies back on, they look so damn good in the sunlight.
I think the same about decals, I have a stack I WILL be throwing on the Soarer once the parts get here. HKS Power for the quarter windows, Garrett, APEXi, and JUN for the for the fender behind the wheels. All parts will be in the car when it's done, so there's no riceyness to it. I'd leave them and ask the potential new owner if he/she would like them to be left on.
Today for mine, I wrote out a "to do list" so i can at the very least have it running again. It's not quite as bad as I though it would be, actually quite surprising. All I need is a gasket kit/bearings for the engine, ball joints, tie rod ends, and a steering rack for the front end, then a rear steering delete kit for the rear end as I cut the lines in my rage of removing the front rack. Then fluids and a turn of the key...
Cleaned it up real nice, only to have to hide it away from a summer rain shower for a bit...
On my way home tonight pulled a modded 4.6L stang GT pretty good. Ran from 60-140 and put at least 5+ cars on it before i lost an accurate way to tell. Not bad but also pretty sad for him because stock boost control is hella slow even with the 19T's...lol

Haha, ^^ I can't wait to get out there and start doing that again, It wasn't any fun in the Soarer... Just because it doesn't look awesome. :p
Hearing that Medallian Touring siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing deep into the R's in 4th gear was pretty fuckin awesome though! What a wonderful exhaust!
Oh and Stoptechs are so full of win. Finally KNOW you have the stopping power no matter how fast you end up going, reins in 140+mph speeds down to legal speeds so effortlessly its frightening and thats just easing into them, braking HARD right on the edge of not enough rubber was breathtaking how good these brakes are. AX6 pads btw....
I cant wait to turn up the power in a few weeks! Gonna be a fucking blast!
:D
Jason
^^^^ Duh!!
Haha
The only thing more staggering than how good AX6 pads are is the amount of dust they make! LOL
Jason
I washed my car, drove EIGHT MILES, came home and wiped the car down with a microfiber cloth, the sides already had a noticeable layer of brake dust on them. Crazy. I am thinking of getting some Bobcats for the street and just swap the AX6's at the track when I get there.
i have some axxis ultimates staring at me..lol(came with the ST's) I might swap them out after the NG road course and a new rotor ring and have a 2nd rotor ring already bedded with the AX6's...
Jason
Finally finished my angel eye inserts.

And since I was on a roll I thought I'd try something else...

where did you get those inserts?
I cut up a pair of angel eyes with busted corners, smothed them with short hair filler, then wrapped them.
I got the magnet switch installed in my remote start neutral safety... There is no way to remote stat the car in gear now. I also have my trunk popper working flawlessly with the hatch light working properly.
Coolant flush.
Those Angel eyes are sickkk i want some.
I installed this guy http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._5695206_n.jpg 3sx downpipe
while i was at it i removed the whole exhaust, and cut out my resonator and swapped it out with some piping. I also was adding a rear flange in, so i cut the exhaust in half but then my welder ran out of wire so now i have no mufflers on the back..car is straight piped pretty much...sounds good tho lol...pretty loud.
You're going to regret cutting out the resonator. Its staight thru and offers no restriction. Your exhaust is going to sound like shit.
:stupid: i wouldn't want my car to sound like a civic with a fart can.
Started and was greeted by major lifter tick
I had straight 3" with 4" tips on mine, no resonators, cats, or mufflers and it sounded amazing. It was relatively quiet on idle, then when I revved it, it sounded like a monster, especially with the 19T's spooling.
As for me... Yes, I actually did something with my Stealth today, I said "fuck you Toyota, your shits weak". Then I painted my engine bay, it turned out very nice too! Considering that my compressor was shitting out half way through, all went well, I'll give it a wet sand and hit with some very glossy black, followed by a couple coats of clear. Then it'll look even better, hopefully by the end of the week, or next weekend I can start putting some things back in.

drove it around town a bit, grabed a hamburg to go at a drive in, my wide band is on the fritz as it leans out to max when i first start it up then after a few minutes it comes back to life. So drove around a bit to test that.
had some kids compliment the car, put air in the rear drivers side tire...
I think the 02 sensor is shot after sitting all winter...
Put on my 17x10 hyperblack 5 zigens, they look awesome. I have an autocross tomorrow, will post pics!

I had her all put together just had to clean, clay bar, detail interior wax etc. Etc.
but...
I was having her idle for a while just to make sure everything was good and have the exhaust gaskets seal. I wasn't watching my temp gauge. The stupid Flex A Lite fan controller didn't kick on. Car got too hot and ended up peeing at the thermostat housing. Engine in fine, but I will be replacing the thermostat and gaskets now. And mess aroudn more with that stupid controller. I have had more issues with that stupid fan controller. So pissed. She was right there ready.
doesn't sound like a honda? Deep and Raspy. Not Farty sounding.
I'm the straight pipe kind of guy, so I like that Raw sound.
TODAY IS CAR WASH DAY :)
Registered the car today.
4 months waiting to drive it.
It was raining hard all day. Think I went about 10ks before I started drifting every corner hahahahhahahahahahaha love it!!!!!
Ejaculated on it..........
Installed the new front struts and a different tranny mount.
Walked past it in the garage a few times while setting up my pool pump, wishing I had time to actually finish the few things I need to do to get it inspected to drive it.
