  1. Lol, the Dick Light is awsome. I ordered 400 rounds to shoot this weekend... Brown Bear commie shit but its half the price of XM193.
  2. None taken, I've always been a bit of a ricer. I was getting about a 3" grouping at max range at BW (~75'?) just standing there. Shot about 1.5" with iron sights resting my elbow at the same distance. Hopefully I'll be able to improve upon that with more experience. As for the hunting it'll probably just be rodents, computers, and the occasional home invader. On a side note, I got to see some guy glock the shit out of his thumbs at BW; he was leaking all over. Pretty sure he was a first time shooter... he was there with his mom using her gun.
  3. Shit, I'm old to be graduating from college when I did... let alone high school. I think I paid $1180 for it? I hadn't heard of YHM before I saw it in Vance's ad but the reviews on AR15.com were all positive. The fit and finish on everything is top notch, and yes the barrel is fluted.
  4. Picked this up about a week ago as a graduation/first job present to myself. I've been wanting to start building a collection for quite some time now but just couldn't afford it while going to school. Anyways, it's a Yankee Hill Machine Co 5.56 AR. I had originally planned on just getting a bare bones DPMS and building it up, but Vance's had a decent price on this one and it already had almost everything I wanted. I've shot about 600 rounds through it so far without any problems. Can't wait till spring so I can kill something other than paper! http://yankeehillmachine.com/store/product437.html http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m187/limitedslip7/IMG_1154.jpg

  6. Want me to put a nipple on it for you?
  7. Huh, wonder if it will be in any theaters around here. Hopefully Sabine will be in it...
  8. Worked as a manufacturing engineering co-op for most of it... only paid $13/hr, but I got to make all the car parts I wanted.
  9. 1. What is your favorite way to gain horsepower? A: The most complicated way I can think up... 2. What cars have you worked on with Turbos and Superchargers? A: RX-7s, Hondas, Mitsus 3. Do you enjoy working on Turbo's and Superchargers? A: The compressors themselves or the vehicles they are on? The compressors make me nervous, so easy to fuck up. The vehicles? Depends on design of the system. 4. Have you ever owned a car with a Turbo or a Supercharger? A: RX-7 with both a turbo and a supercharger 5. Whats the most boost you have seen run on a car? A: I dunno, 19psi on my own; 30+ on other cars. 6. What Automotive experience do you have? A: Design and fab most of my own parts, engine rebuilds/machining/swaps, etc 7. What % of the cars you work on have Turbo's or Supercharger's? A: 70% 8. What is the wierdest car you have seen with a Turbo or Supercharger? A: A turbocharged riding lawnmower? A custom motorcycle powered by a SRT-4 motor with twin factory stage-3 turbos? Probably an Nova powered by a big turbo Wankel. 9. What is the worst problem you have had with a car? A: Cracked front iron 10. Have you ever got injuried by a car? A: busted knuckles
  10. This isn't really a new invention... I worked at a foundry four years ago that used compressed air versions of these to cool down hot parts.
  11. I was wondering how long it would take for someone to make a gas turbine powered hybrid.
  12. Damn, that seems like some very good numbers for 93 octane. Any engine pics or vids to go with the sheet?
  13. I would go with a Miller Dynasty 350. Once you start getting into welding, you're quickly going to want something better than a POS Harbor Freight flux core pile.
  14. It seems people who hate the Boondock Saints always tried to take the movie so goddamn seriously when it shouldn't be. Hell, they even poke fun at the ceiling scene later in the movie. They've probably fucked this one all up though...
  15. Forget the LS6, here is a real swap for a Nova: http://www.rx7club.com/showthread.php?t=727207
  16. Strange, I thought it was exactly like what the trailer made it out to be... I thought it was a kick ass movie.
  17. I've had to fix an identical FD intercooler before that had a hole in it. The owner didn't want to spend much money, so he just bought an Ebay intercooler with similar core dimensions and I just swapped the endtanks.
  18. That thing sounds sweet, like its powered by a gas turbine or something very turbocharged...
  19. I want one of those green paintball masks...
  20. Yep, that's pretty much it. I spent the last three years making parts for my car at my co-op job while going to school. Now I can't find a fucking job to save my life...
  21. Cool, but I'm not sure I would call those "spectacular results"...
  22. 3200lbs? That would be complete bullshit, I would think it would have to be much lower than that, more like 2600-2700.
