  1. I guess my name gives the basics away, my names Steve Wise and I own an S14 (95' Nissan 240sx). I go to OSU and live here on campus, im studying welding engineering. I bought my baby about June of last year from my now ex-girlfriend and about two months later I started a massive overhaul since she looked as though she had been left in the middle of an outdoor destruction derby ring. Project KA24DE-T consists of (from the bottom up): polished crank, new rod and main bearings (clevite), Eagle rods, CP .020" over pistons, inconel exhaust and titanium nitride coated intake valves (supertech). Dual valve springs and stage 3 cams (Crower). Also the block was milled and magnafluxed as was the head (minus the magnaflux cause its aluminum ). Also when I bought it, it was a auto so, that must be changed. I haven't made a decision on a turbo or suspension yet because im not really sure what I want to do with it. Probably some sort of adjustable struts and between a GT30-GT35 garrett. enough yappin' here she be: bone stock except CAI 189,000 miles and runnin' strong http://photos-h.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v117/209/116/200003914/n200003914_30393047_8288.jpg It had a bra on it when I bought it...now I know why. http://photos-h.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v133/209/116/200003914/n200003914_30438095_7284.jpg Iron block ftw, I've heard of people boring these 0.050", sounds like a gamble http://photos-c.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v117/209/116/200003914/n200003914_30393050_9087.jpg ARP's all around, woot for a stock forged crank w/ chamfered oil holes http://photos-b.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v198/209/116/200003914/n200003914_30600049_128.jpg This is how she lays in my garage in Toledo (Home) http://photos-g.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v198/209/116/200003914/n200003914_30600054_1134.jpg If you look close you can see where material had to be taken off due to the stage 3's lobe size. http://photos-b.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sctm/v217/209/116/200003914/n200003914_30589417_7931.jpg Anyway, thats me, I look forward to meeting all of you on here!

  2. I registered a while ago but never posted. Anyways, my name is Kevin and I have an '87 Buick Turbo T. I live in Cincy. Here's some pics: http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j42/whitet231/exterior1-1.jpg http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j42/whitet231/vsbanana1.jpg not the best interior pic, but it gives you an idea what it looks like inside http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j42/whitet231/100_1479.jpg Right now the car is down due to a turbo failure. Should be up and running in a few weeks. I'm taking advantage of the down time to install a new cam that should help it out a little. I plan on going to National Trail in the beginning of August for a Buick race up there.

  3. Hey, names Nick Smith. I live on campus area, been meaning to join the site for awhile but never got around to it. Other forums I'm on would be FocusFanatics.com which I moderate on and the thecarlounge.com are the two most frequent. I go to DeVry University in case any other members go there. I work at a bike shop in Gahanna and it pretty much sucks, I also work for RedBull which pretty much rules. Anywho...on with the car. 2002 Sonic Blue SVT Focus, #0024 which means it was one of the first 25 to roll off the line and the guy at SVT said it was the lowest number he's seen. Engine Mods: Jackson Racing M62 supercharger Focus Central 65mm TB Short+CAI custom goofy setup Bosch 42lb/hr injectors SVT lightning MAF MSD Blaster coil and 9mm wires Motorcraft copper plugs gapped at .045 Magnaflow catback with custom SRT-4 dual tips Spec stg2 clutch Fidanza 12lb flywheel Brakes/Wheels/Suspension: EBC Green stuff pads EBC rotors (coming off this week for OE) KYB GR-2 shocks and struts Eibach Sportline springs Prothane rear control arm bushings Stock SVT EAP wheel powdercoated Some crappy but uber cheap 225/45/17's for now Exterior European RS grill clear corners tinted tails dual tips 2500K fog lights *on the way* Projector headlights with 6000K HID's, should be here monday On with the pics, some new, some old, http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v160/b3passatBMX/SVT614small.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v160/b3passatBMX/mycar.jpg With old crappy CF hood...gone now http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v160/b3passatBMX/0422081957.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v160/b3passatBMX/SVT%20Focus/SVTside1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v160/b3passatBMX/SVT%20Focus/SVTfront8.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v160/b3passatBMX/SVT%20Focus/lot4.jpg Looks quite purple in some light..haha And the heart of it all... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v160/b3passatBMX/SVT%20Focus/Valvecover2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v160/b3passatBMX/SVT%20Focus/Valvecover3.jpg It's no Civic or V-dub but I like it :thumbup: Let me know what you guys think.

  5. I personally don't think I'll be going up there any more. I didn't go up there to race, my car is slow and I know it, but I liked seeing the other cars and shooting the shit with people. But think about this, if the cops are watching sonic, theyre definitley taking note of the cars there. That will probably increase your chances of not getting let off of a ticket in the future, if the cop pulls you over and thinks "hmm this guy has been involved in this here fast and the furious scene...he needs to learn a lesson". It sucks cause a lot of us just like to hang out and appreciate cars. I'm not knocking racing, thats where this all stems from its the background of our hobby. I just hope everyone keeps their eyes and ears open and stays safe.

  6. Welcome aboard and nice intro. Dont take any of this stuff to heart.. I've seen a few straight line S2000's that were quick as shit. Are you strictly a turner? BTW.... Pink guns are gayer than Hal when he tried to act like Marilyn Monroe and jumped out of a cake at my last birthday party

  9. You're a fucking bitch. You show your fucking ignorance in every god damn thread on this site. V6 Camaro, fag, deuchebag, pathetic loser... I'm wasting braincells thinking about the general concensus of you on this board. You can be considered as a failed abortion. Back on subject, NexFedram and I barely escaped this "police state" like raid. For all who were there it was pretty fucked up. From what I saw, some cocksucker (probably mrhobbz's boyfriend) on a bike, went right up to the cops as we left saying "aww shyt, there dey go up to 71 ta street race!!1!". The rest is history. Some people I saw (red VW, white C5), turned around in Burger King on 36/37, and never made it to the check point. It doesn't help that all the west side trash saved their money all week to buy gas to drive to Westerville, just to be perfect cop magnets. I mean did anybody see that fucking van? I lol'd when the genoa cop at the checkpoint said "We are conducting an investigation to inflitrate an underground drag racing ring on 71." There's no such thing as a "cool cop". They are all mindless thugs who are trained to abuse their legal power to "serve" the taxpayers. Maybe once we get out of this "have everything, do nothing" society, people will wake up and take the power back. The End.

  10. Right behind COSI. They also have a scale that's accurate to 20lbs. Here's my sled, full tank of gas, spare and jack, bike in the back, 2 amps and a 12" in a box. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v160/b3passatBMX/0817070221.jpg

  11. Here's a sure fire test if you have some disease and you can't feel wind on your skin. 1. Grab a big handful of flour. 2. Walk to ceiling fan. 3. Turn fan on high. 4. Throw flour into fan. 5. Continue to stare into fan. 6. If you suddenly see white and/or are blinded, your fan is blowing down. Congratulations! 7. If not, activate the small switch on the side of your ceiling fan and repeat steps 1-6.

  12. Hi my name is jordan. Im posting this because I was told my picture was taken off my myspace ""Which was a joke"", and posted on here In the kitchen forum and is now being criticized, I guess Im also known on here to have the ugliest s2000 in columbus:P haha. Well i just wanted to say hi to everyone. I really dont know what was so offensive about my car that made so many people actually have to go out of their way and talk shit about someone they have never met before. Pretty immature in my opinion but oh well. Yes I am the guy in this picture. No i did not originally post it on this board. and if you look in the second picture I am wearing hollister flip flops = not in the slightest thuggish one bit;P http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c74/D1SKOOLBUS/DSC_0577.jpg The picture was actually taken a day after my other car was stolen a few weeks ago. Yes I do have a "PINK" gun in the picture, Yes it is a real .38 caliber, No I dont care its pink, Yes I bought it because I live in a rough neigborhood and my civic was just stolen and stripped, No I don't care about how you portray me as trying to be a "e-thug" In the picture, but yes I was actually pissed in this picture because my car was just stolen the day prior:P, The picture is actually being used for my friends cd artwork , so whatever about the picture haha seriously people. http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c74/D1SKOOLBUS/DSC_0389_edited.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c74/D1SKOOLBUS/Picture801.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c74/D1SKOOLBUS/n899115009_3241484_5995.jpg Now back to the topic on racing, Yes I love racing, Road racing/drifting. I got into a harmless little race yesterday for fun and now it turned into a 5 page shit talk for who knows what reason. The post saying it was me I talked to him, but didnt not write all the stuff said, The Mod in the white Sti beat me and i gave him a thumbs up, that was that, " I was actually expecting on getting beat a little worse then I was:P". But If anyone really feels the need to contact me and let me know how offensive my S2000 is to them, How much of a internet E-Thug you think I am....Seriously do it. hahah I dont care man I thought this place was to talk about racing not trash anyone and everything you can. If anyone on here would actually want to talk about racing Im all ears

  13. So there's this guy whos a regular at my bar. Good guy, decent always looks out for others, etc... well he's a total functional alcholic and everyone knows it. He even tells people "if i get too drunk, take my keys because i cant get ANOTHER DUI". FFWD tonight and sure enough, he gets too drunk. Me, my brother, his wife and some friends are there having a good time and he approaches me and says "if you dont give me my keys ... i dont want to have to kick your ass". Now Todd is a pretty stocky guy but he's wasted so im thinking, ok dont fight a guy who's clearly drunk. He's my friend and i know we'll both regret it ... and yes I do have his keys in my pocket. long story short this asshole punch's me in the chest b/c I wont give his keys to him. After that some words are exchanged and somehow my brother gets into it with some dude whos not even involved. They're clentched up like they're about to choke each other out and all for what? because some fucking alcoholic wanted to drive home. Damn me for helping him out right? I swear sometimes I think it would just be easier to let people go about their lives without interruption but I dont know if i could live with myself if todd had hurt or killed someone last night bc he was too damn stubborn to call a cab. Fuck drunk assholes.

  15. I don't get why people kept going after George. Seriously. Everyone stepped on my fucking nuts when I tried to warn them. Anthony has been trying to warn them. Brian has been trying to warn them. Hal has been trying to warn them. I guess if you don't listen, you don't listen.

  17. Sorry I've smudged your fairytale view of the police. My opinions come from somebody whos been beat by cops, arrested without probable cause, has witnessed cops blatently disregarding my legal rights as an american, detained without cause or bail, illegally searched... must I go on. I don't appreciate this bullshit when I get that fat chunk of doughnut money taken out of my check. They should be going after the murderers, rapists, drug dealers (which is a whole other rant), crackheads, and so on... Your a good mechanic and a nice guy, I don't want to get into an e-battle with you about the modern day black shirts. I don't believe I deserved being called a "fucking idiot".
