  1. Nice build! Engine bay looks good
  2. Awesome stuff, Matt. Thanks for sharing As a side note you inspired me to get a TIG welder last year... been having some fun with that.
  3. RS is good but the potential is only really unlocked once you void the warranty and go stage 2. The gains are insane with stage 2 and a tune (see below). However, if you look at the RS vs STi they have very similar numbers without upgrades... not sure it's worth it to pay a lot more for a RS. Probably driving both is the best way to see which you like better though. Subaru seems to be keeping the same motor for the 2018 STi as well. (1:30 is the dyno chart) http://www.caranddriver.com/comparisons/2016-ford-focus-rs-vs-subaru-wrx-sti-vw-golf-r-comparison-test
  4. Great build and thanks for posting everything. Good luck with your racing this year
  5. Amazing stuff Matt, keep up the good work
  6. Like the stickers Bob. Good luck selling the gun wagon
  7. I'm sure it is a hoot to drive but there are a lot of cars that are not FWD for around 32k that are better. If you never want to upgrade your car it might be OK (300hp is around the max for FWD to be effective), but it seems like too little too late from Honda. Bring back the S2000 or make the Type-R AWD/RWD
  8. I have one and the palmetto kit I used worked fine with it
  9. I have a couple JSE surplus uppers and a couple Palmetto uppers and they all run fine. Never had any problems with Palmetto. JSE requires signature which means I have to send it to the Fedex/UPS store nearby instead.
  10. Good thing you caught it. Hopefully you can get another million rounds in without another one
  11. Alternative to the vector is a CZ scorpion. http://cz-usa.com/product/cz-scorpion-evo-3-s1-pistol-2/ Quite a bit cheaper. Vector is pretty cool though. You could also build a 9mm AR carbine for about $700.
  12. I have a black and decker electric string trimmer that I used for awhile at my old half acre lot. It would trim grass on the whole thing on one charge as long as I was running it on medium speed. If you plan on hitting anything other than grass I would go gas over electric... a lot more power, but at the cost of having to use gas and pull start.
  13. I'm going to Briar Rabbit on Saturday 6/25 if anyone wants to join. Plan to be there by 930 and shoot until 2 or 230 Edit: apparently range is reserved on Saturday 6-25 for private party... must have updated today. Maybe another Saturday
  14. I did find the box for switching off our condo... and all the other condos for that matter. Plastic boxes with 100a switches next to the meters. I might still have an electrician do it just to make sure it is done to code.
  15. This may be what I wind up doing. Thank you Our condo has an attached garage and is connected to 3 other condos. I'm unsure where any kind of main breaker box would be, as it is not in our condo anywhere. Here's a picture of the inside in case there is something I am missing. http://i.imgur.com/AqmGrMq.jpg?1
  16. Indeed, negating the possibility of shocking myself would be ideal. I searched nearby rooms looking for a main box but did not locate any. We are in a condo so perhaps it is shared somewhere... quite inconvenient. My other option is to borrow the dryer outlet that is just inside the door to the house, but the type of outlet is different (angled plugs vs. horizontal) Thanks for the replies. My little welder won't show up for a little while so I have some time to wire in the outlet.
  17. I pulled whole cover off yesterday and there was no switch. Maybe I'll wait for the next power outage then just slap the breaker in...
  18. Anyone have an electrician they recommend? I'd like to add a 240v outlet. The fuse box is in the garage with open slots. I know how to wire in 240v (double fuse, 2 hot wires, one ground), but there is no main power switch to turn off the fuse box. I think that the main power off switch is not required since it is not indoors, and it does not strike me as a good idea to work on any kind of live wires. As far as I care the 240v outlet can be right next to the fuse box in order to require minimal drywall / cable routing. Thank you, Sean
  19. M3? It is around 500 pounds lighter than the CTS-V but slightly slower because it has less horsepower stock. If you don't want a CTS-V then it may be an alternative. CTS-V fits most of your criteria for a new car in that price range though. I've never driven one but on paper it is an impressive beast.
  20. Briar Rabbit works for me too. My triggers don't let me shoot past 400 yards consistently anyways
