one of the many reasons why the car is not being driven.

last time it was out in public was the 06 Brooklyn meet (i think)

LOL. yeah, you surely broke some stuff on that trip!!!

remember the axles? LOL

Dave, I gota odd question for you...
what is the difference between these last two post then my the others?

Something techincal

It makes me sad when its 330 on a Friday, im bored at work, and theres nothing new to read.

On that note, Happy Friday everyone. Any weekend plans?

Damn...

Well, the problem is getting worse. There is definately a bearing going out.
I don't know if I should try and get it fixed rather quickly, or just buy another car and let the R sit. Work 5 days a week and I have school 2 days a week, so it is hard to do things with the tranny out......

Mornin fawkers!!! Hope everyone had a great weekend.

I can say I was busy. Honey 2 is a monster!

eh... not too bad.
Yesterday I detailed Ed / zygspeed's Si, came out very nice. his annual six month visit to nyc.

Got under teh tank and got filthy-dirty working on it.
She is red-eye for dyno run this Sat. (or sooner ef I play hooky from work).

what kind of power do you expect?

Yo Dave,
I bought the hytech replica header that is FS in the FS forum (titanium nitrate coated one)...
I talked to the guy last night on the phone. what were your thoughts on the header? He said he sent you pics and talked with you about them. Also, do you know if those are the "Who Is Dan" headers?

80hp gain.

80 gain, I bet took some money...

Currently on a NYC subway heading into Manhattan for a large paying three day job

I'll be working on a building (42nd st & 2nd ave) that has an external to internal water leak, my job is to supervise the crew (help too) while doing a controlled water leak test.

no signal in the train tunnels... catch you later!

Yo sum bucks; 3" exhaust w/O2 housing & hi-flow cat, Cosworth cams, springs w/titanium ret., Walbro 255, bored out T.B. & hi-flo airfilter, mail in ECU tune. Running stock turbo & boost psi. but spools up real fast now!
Props for jorby, j00 make enuf $'s to fix trans on teh ARRRH?

still on stock turbo?

waiting in the office for the bosses to show...

money, lets just say a bunch and all towards the trans. not enough to buy in one shot but a huge leap forward. Hopefully this loot and the rest coming this fall will allow me to have the R ready for Expo 8.

Dave B, Andy and the rest of the crew. If I skip the wtdr exblo now, I should be driving at expo8 whooping some ass! I hate to miss out on this event... but the possibility of tracking the R is worth it.

Let me know if that works out for you. I have pondered the Nitrate one as well. Not sure if it's worth it to give up my JDM 4-1 or not, so I expect good, full review from you on this!!!

I think it "looks" good. The welds are nice and whatnot. I'm just really curious about fitment. I have no idea about these "Who Is Dan" headers.

It won't be going on right away, John is still waiting for his exhaust to get completed (exhaust swap going on).
Besides, that will give me time to make a flywheel cover to replace the engine stiffner that has to be removed.

Hell yeah. The thing looks nice as can be, I'm just curious about the fitment which the seller claims to be perfect. Most of the "knock" off headers if you will tend to have this fitment problem. Hopefully this one doesn't and I'll end up getting one too.

Does anyone have an engine stiffner off their R right now?
I don't have the time to take mine off.
I am looking to trace the size and shape of it, with bolt holes.

Sup Joe!!!
