well thats how this weekend was spent. it was a lot of hard work but it was definately good times..... sorry that the pics arent all inorder but im tired and im not waking up till monday morning. everyone did well at the track there were no blown motors this time. julio almost got stranded(car stalled and didnt want to start anymore) until donald125 found stupid ass fuse that was blown and the car started right up. it was really crowded at the track today so i only got 3 runs in, my best run had a very shitty 60ft but i still managed 14.4 at 102mph@10psi on a zc.... stealthmode said he got a 1.9sec 60ft outta the hf...... well thats all i can think of right now im off to lala land...

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

when you get up tell me more about the 20 dollars paint job.

Nick

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

dam! looks like a fun night! i love your work light!

awesome!

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

I'm digginh the panda paint job man "thumbs up". I really need a passenger side mirror for my hatch :-\ I hate having to turn my head to switvh lanes all the time and ----. Damn STD hatches :D

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

Haha.Whats even better is the $2 cover where the sun roof used to be.So lucky he lives in So.Cal where it only rains 1 time a year :P

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

hahaha i love how parts of the piping that isnt plastic looks like water pipes from someone's house...lol

good work

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

I love julios shop light, I'll have to make one of those for myself whenever I get motivated. that guy who slept in julio's car needs a bigger turbo, a td05h on a gsr just isn't going to do it for me.

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

Well, the track was crowded due to the UTI mechanics school field trip with all of thier cars. Also they made a special under 10 sec. day for all the other cars that showed up that usually aren't there.

My first run I didn't look at the boost gauge, but the afc had a peak of 6psi. I did 14.3. I thought one of my couplers had to be leaking so I re-tightened all of them and went out again. 5psi steady with a 14.5. WTF? The electronic boost controller was set at 15psi and I'm only getting 5. ??? We figured out that the bolt that holds the wastegate to the compressor housing was loose and the wastegate wasn't closing completely. Tightened that and did a test run. I hit 15psi and I went to do the last run. The car fucken hauls at 15psi, so I'm always ready to rip ---- up. I hit first gear and the ---- was crazy. I got a 1.91 60ft time right before my charge pipe let loose. Once again, the hf doesn't want to hold 15psi. ::)
I just got a shipment of good pipe couplers, so I'm gonna change that and go run in the 12's like this bitch was made for. It wasn't a great day, but I still drove it home. :-\

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

I can't wait until I finish my lsv so I can say I run 15psi. stealth, have you ever considered charge pipes made out of this revolutionary new product called metal?

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

It's not the charge pipes, it's the fucked up rubber couplers from home depot that get me. I just ordered alot of purosil couplers that I will be offering here, but it seems I need them more than anyone.
I can only say I run 15psi because that's all my gauge goes to. It could be 16. lol. My goal in life is just to peg every gauge except the temp gauge. 8)

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

I've pegged all my gauges but the temp gauge, I think I win. my temp guage would have been pegged if I had it hooked up too. how do I know? well kids when your radiator blows up that's a good indication the temp needle might be in the red.

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

any day you drive home from the track.. your a winner.

Nick

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

if you do blow your motor at the track just think it could be worse, you could blow your motor with 15 minutes left to race and they have to send everybody home because the cleanup is going to take 15 minutes and the people you hang out in the pit area with are threatening to cut your balls off because they don't know it's you that blew the engine.

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

i dig the chargpipes. thats gotta be the most locash car on this site. you get 1000000000 points

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

word.


And BTW, the turbo on the GSR del sol is a IHI RBH5 dinky little piece of ----. however, we got him a 60/63 and next time you see a drag day post you'll see some respectable numbers coming from a turbo gsr del sol.

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

Stealth I'm definately going to have to pick up some of those couplers when you get them and start selling them here. My home Depot couplers don't last for ---- either, they either blow appart on me or I find holes in them etc. :P

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

hey mang, quit pointing at me! hahahaha

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

Hey guys if you need couplers that bad, Theres a store here by where i live that sells them for like 12$ for a foot or some ----. Thats for rubber, silicone is a bit more expensive... The key is 3 things using the tighting fittest coupler on the pipe before you tighten it down with hose clamps, use 4 or more hose clamps per coupler(tightened with a ratchet, not screwdriver) and lastly use a nice sized piece of coupler that covers some descent pipe area.
P.S keep the pipe edges sharp wherever your going to put the couplers on

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

Mike, I'm taking care of the situation. I've got a whole box full of 3 ft pieces of silicone couplers. I just have to cut them into 3" sections and advertise them. I believe we'll be looking at around $3 each plus shipping for the good ----. I'll be making the post in FS soon.


How about those slicks? :-\

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

dude, seriously, thats like the 2nd time you flake on us..or stevmode for that matter...

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

Don't forget to save 5 or six of those for me. Even though I got there kinda late after work, that was a good time and it was cool to finally meet some of you guys. You're not all as bad as Steve made you out to... Oh, sorry Steve. Them's just jokes guys! ;D

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

I've already figured yours out of inventory, Russ. Couplers are now listed in classifies. ;)

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

Ah yes, you da man. Thanks buddy. Now let's get this thing installed. So I can be fast like you (when you get your couplers on).

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

well it was about 1am and murdoc and i came up with the bright idea that the hatch needed a paint job. we headed out the the 24hr autozone and bought some oil and 5 cans of whitegloss.. we only dusted the car and started spaying. we didnt even mask ---- we just used a piece of cardboard. a simple razor and some paint thinner cleaned up the overspay. came out puuurty good..

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

julio and I went back to the 24hr autozone (in inglewood) at like 2am andsome crazy fucks with teardrop tatoo's were gonna kill us.

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

murdoc got some good pics of why they were after your asses,literaly.

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

no, that was the cholos in the denali on the freeway. and us trying to get away in a less then stock std hatch.

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

this thread has become ------- hilarious. next time some guys with tear drop tatoos are after you just say "why hello there fellas, you wouldn't happen to be interested in a game of badmitten would you?"

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 

Hahaha... good pics mang. If you guys wanna see why those fools were getting chased by some cholos check out my thread.

So where's the offical SoCal track day thread with pics. >:(
