Great.

He'll have a voice over gig and OD on coke in West Hollywood by next week.

I might come watch for a day. Working on the next phase of my build so not sure when I'll get time to race just yet...

 

What mods are you doing?

 

You've still got to beat my stock motor N/A speeds first...

I did that on 480

Wanna see the vid? :bangbang:

As far as what Im doing with the bike? Trying the stay ahead of Jamie!-what is the stock (no Head or Base gasket) WHP record again?

Referred a good buddie your way.

You should have PM. Take care of him.

Very nice!

 

Texas Mile?

Are YOU going?

I cant have the Fastest bike on CR...

So Jamie, have you changed your mind about UGR?

 

Yeahhhh Buddie!

Just when Team C-Bus thought they had a chance...

At this point, only trades I'd really consider is for clean, stock DD's with AC, Auto preferred (for the wife) as a back up DD/Fleet Vehicle.

Otherwise, I'd trade for a pile of cash. A few bumps, and a 18.5 years old female found roaming campus/arena district. Must be 5-1 to 5-5, 34-24-36 preferred.

Thanks!

She's a good little whore.

Also keep in mind that the bike will hook up alot better at a treated track then it ever will practicing on a back road. Im not sure if a 600 experiences much wheelspin on the street, but it will be totally different at the track.

I still spin pretty hard at the track unless I get some heat in the tire-but thats on the street compound

I want these. I hope you have these next week and I was just getting ready to pm coltboosting on the rims

You have wanted the wheels for a while-

This would make the PERFECT combo for you! Makes me wish one of my current cars were 4x100

In JaSSon's defense, not that he needs my help (lol), I did speak with him yesterday about the car. He could not have been more honest about everything and did answer all of my questions. (and there were many...) He was even half asleep when I called and was still nice and honest. Hopefully I'll be able to check the car out soon. I can't imagine an NA DSM ECU on a turbo car would just run without many of the issues he is describing. Is it possible that there are more issues with the car? Sure... but he literally sat and went through inch by inch of the car with me on the phone describing the good and bad points and probably wasn't awake enough to function! Sorry again about that bro! lol His honesty was refreshing.

 

Pavo

This would be a good start back "Into the Game" for you.

Line 5)Call it a day and stop f-in worrying about it

Check Box here []

Not sure if its out or what but AEM had on display some full race manifold with widebands in each runner. Might check into that

I'd toss K04's on it, mail in a tune by someone with a German name, and never worry about it again.

But yes, as I mentioned AEM has some new things out that may work for you. Some people dont like them-I think the unit as a whole works well.

LOL

 

Thanks JP, I'm not sure if you saw the title, but this is not about stuffing a 4G into a tin can, a little off topic for you I know.

 

 

PS: this is for the B5 S4, do elaborate as to why I don't need it. I would find it useful for at a glance reassurance during pulls.

Brosef-

IT would take me 2 pages to list the cars/engine I have assembled/tuned/wrenched on, but JUST in tuning experience, I have dealt with AEM (For Mitsu, Ford, and Hondas, ProEFI, DSMlink, RoM Burning for Mitsu, Nissan (fixing bad Jim Wolf tunes), and Bosch ECU's, Motec M2R, M400/600, S300, Chrome, 034, AutronickSm4, Ecu Editor (Suzuki) Powercomanner PCII, and IIIusb, Megasquirt Pre-fab and built it yourself, and Simple shit ike AFC I, II, and NEO, Translators on DSM's and Buicks.... and some Im forgetting.

Also, I think its safe to say I have made more power with Trucks, Cars, and Bikes, than anything in you line up. Its safe to say, I'm more qualified to answer this question than you are to question my answer.

Also, I am very good friends with the man that has, arguable (would not be much of an argument) the Fastest, and highest horsepower street S4 in the whole god damn country. You know how many wide-bands it has logging, and displayed so as you say "find it useful for at a glance reassurance during pulls. " Zero. Not a fucking one. You know how many times it has fucked up being flogged and DD'd at near 800 whp? Zero. Not fucking once.

My philosophy is simple one; Different is cool, and going fast for nothing, reliable, is the proverbial holy grail-but never over-think the machine, and you'll never forget where your going or where you came from.

In that mindset, the answer of why, in my opinion, you don't need 2 widebands, or wideband readings visible at all times should be easy one to decipher. Unless you are trying to make north of 800whp, and/or have full control of all cylinder load fueling parameters separately (in which case you should have a pyrometer in each tube anyways) I feel its not necessary.

But if you are into blinky gauges to look at making you feel like your in a real bonified race car, by all means have at it. In that case I'd recommend the AED UEGO-usability, and bling factor are unmatched at the price point. And, you can add a wideband controller to log both banks at once without the use of the FM unit.

Brosef-

All in good fun Jones.

SO FAR AS I KNOW, the battery and ecu are the only major issues with the car.

.

Really?

It idles rough and high and knocks in the low end.

Is this a logged timing related detonation, or a F-in Rod knock?!?!

Its just A-Fucking-Mazing. I don't know how you'd top that.

Now, he finds out that the motor needs to be taken back out and fixed again and is looking at another $700. I said he should just sell it and wipe his hands clean, he says he won't make enough.

Firstly, what is your guys' opinion on what he should do? Secondly, how much do you think he could make parting it versus just the whole car as is?

Thanks for your guys' opinions!

First reply...lol

I know your type well… first it’s “Sell the Jeep because it’s costing too much money.” Then it’s “No, you can’t go spend the weekend with your buddies because I need you to take me shopping.” Then it’s “Oh gee, honey… I’m pregnant. Gosh, I have no idea how that happened.”

You’re a DreamKiller. You kill a guy’s dreams, take away his future, tie him down with a fat mortgage and too many babies, and turn him into just another miserable guy wondering, “How the hell did I get here?”

Do you really want to help him? Here’s what you do… go to your local library (it’s a big building with books inside) and check out a couple of books on rebuilding engines. Read them, over and over, until YOU understand what needs to be done. Then help him get that engine out and rebuild it. Tie your hair back in a ponytail, put on some old jeans and get your hands dirty. Hand him wrenches, hold the light, pull the wire connectors apart, help him get the hood off… help him with anything he needs. When he gets tired, run inside and make him a hot lunch or dinner. Fix him coffee, hot chocolate, whatever he wants. (But NO beer. Beer is for when the job is done.)

Then when the day is over and you’re both exhausted from working on the engine, push him into a hot shower and jump in with him. Scrub his back, wash his hair, rinse him off, and dry him with fluffy towels still hot from the dryer. Then push him into bed and screw his ears off. Then get up the next day and do it all over again.

Make him realize that rebuilding an engine is a slow and methodical process. Make him realize that every step should be regarded as surgery; every step must be perfect… perfect torque, perfect fit, perfectly clean. If you run into a step that you just can’t figure out, ask for help from someone who knows what he’s doing. Are you cute? Put on a low-cut top, show some cleavage and go (by yourself) to the local Jeep shop, and explain to the guys that you are helping your boyfriend to rebuild his engine and neither of you can figure out this one little step, and do they have any advice…

Think it won’t work? Think again. We guys love to help cute girls, even if they have a boyfriend. (Hey, maybe you’ve got a sister, or girlfriend…)

But absolutely DO NOT whine or complain. Do not say a single negative thing. Not a single “Oooooo, I broke a nail.” If you break a nail, or cut your finger, or bang a knuckle, you just shut up and DEAL WITH IT. You should be a hopelessly optomistic, never-say-die cheerleader, encouraging him every step of the way.

That’s my opinion.

If it helps the sale-I have some 13x8 4x100 Axis wheels Id off to make this a package deal for someone-

Ultimate Honda drag package would be had.

No offense- but

Nothing on your current 'whips' list needs any such set up.

You're right. It's just a 7 bolt I should quit now. Technically speaking I only need it to hold together for 2,3 weekends tops. But its only a 7 bolt. It'll never happen

I'll take a stock Seven bolt and make fuckin majic.

Send er- my way
