Nice upgrades. Hey whatever happened to that whole car accident thing? I kept looking for you to post an update but I never saw anything. Were you able to get the rear-end fixed?

NIce. I'm really interested in seeing how your hatch setup will be with the full size spare and the system. Oh, and Cranium is a sweet game.

i'm doing a full size spare setup too, once I get the stuff, but i'm only having 1 sub, and I'm gonna keep some space in my hatch(and my rear seats) :)

Well as far as the accident goes, it was a long drawn out process to say the least. I ummmm, called the insurance company I don't know how many times, even ended up having to take a day off work to get this all settled so I could get my money! Long story short it took the insurance company over a month to get me my money so I could fix all the damage!

Getting the rear painted was a chore in itself. Another long story short a local shop (DCR Customs) screwed me big time and I had to end up taking the rear back 3 different times because they kept messing up the paint job....I mean messed it up really bad! If you really want a good descriptive detailed story about it all you can read it here http://www.streamlinemotorsportsva.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=464 I posted the whole story there!

It's been a very trying 2 months for me to say the least, but now things are starting to go as planned.

Thanks guys!

Oh yah I got the wheel from WheelMax.com and it was $155 shipped to my door.

Not really, my internals aren't even built up yet! I still have a long way to go on the performance aspect of my car. I am completely done with adding anymore show to my car...from now on its all going to be performance. I don't have crazy hp goals, just want to get around 255whp range.

There is still so much that needs done to this car its not even funny.

When I go to events I see 2gnt's that make mine look bone stock! They are the ones that have too much money!...LOL!

i hope those aren't e-bay Brembos! if they are, make sure you check them for cracks after that shinny stuff wears off. i've had mine for a year thinking they were a good deal and they are now warped and some of the holes are cracking.

anyway the rest of the toys look sweet! :thumbsup

Yo Aggression, went to NOPI a couple weekends ago and talked to shane I think his name was? By the way, his Z is sick as hell, but anyway, he told me about the whole ordeal you've been having with your bumper. It sux that its happenin like that, I think that VA eclipse's are taking a pounding though or s/t, because I got problems of my own now. I took my car to Lee's Tires Inc. on Azaela(sp?) Garden Rd. to get a muffler welded on, and the mechanic that did it somehow caught the rear part of my bumper on fire and didn't tell me. Two days later I notice some warpage and a small hole and am like wtf is that. I go behind it and see that my support is melted and theres burnt shit everywhere. I take it back there and talk to the manager and they call the mechanic and he says that he did do it but he didn't know it was "that bad". This was about a month ago. Luckily I have the bumper that I bought from you still (I haven't put it on yet), but I still wanna make those bastards pay, cuz I still need a new support, and they can pay to get it painted too. Long story short, the owner isn't going to let us take it to a shop, which (talking with my insurance company) I have every legal right to. He wants to do the work, and I'm just like, look, you fucked up my bumper once, your not touching it again. So, May 31st is my court date, I just hope we win against this guy. If you find a good body shop, please let me know, vice versa here too, and NEVER take your car to, or buy anything from Lee's Tires Inc. ok, I'm done ranting, sorry for the long post, and i want your rotors :D

Sorry to hear that about your bumper bro! Trust me I know how you feel!

But yah Shane told me talked to you at NOPI...I wasn't there because the paint guy F'd up my bumper for the 3rd straight time. How can anyone F up a paint job 3 times in a row? Ok well I am not going to get back into that again but I do hope you get everything squared away with your bumper man.

I took it in the rear and you get your ass burnt...WTF is up with that! :shrug

Aggression-when are gonna put that clutch in? I finally got my ride back from paint and I'm installing my new intake and turbo kit and a list of other things a mile long with the ride being in the paint shop for 9 months I have procured a vast assortment of new parts. PM me about the clutch

Holy crap man! How in the hell could it possibly take 9 months to do anything like that? Shit you could build several houses in that timeframe!

Well see I first need to take the clutch out and take it some where so I can have them press in my input shaft bearing before I install the clutch! So I am trying to find a reputable shop that could do that for me!

Plus I need to get new axel seals, at least for the front driver side. Need to check all of them and make sure thats the only one!

I did install my brake pads and rotors last night and man its a great feeling to have such good stopping power on tap if I need it!
