ND4SPDIII
01-26-2004, 05:37 PM
Fausto, I think that's the same highway t get to the tacetrack, I think is exit 578. But im not 100% sure.

1GT2NV Yeah man anyone can go. I think it will be better if we meet somewhere, then we take it from there.

tido_29
01-26-2004, 05:40 PM
thats cool.. the only thing is that I am not 100% sure if i will go.. I was there 2 days ago and well.. 2 weekends in a row isnt pleasant.. haha

Well what exactly will be happening that day anyway? Is it a all day event..

I would probably be driving back that same night.. have to be here in houston for the Super Bowl

01-29-2004, 04:40 PM

Like i said.. hopefully my sponser gives me enought money to get my engine worked on right.

ND4SPDIII
01-29-2004, 04:43 PM

tido_29
01-29-2004, 04:47 PM
i signed up at this website and put on what i wanted to do to it. and all... what i have.. etc..

then a week ago i got a call from them saying i have been choosen for sponsership and my contract is in the mail. Hopefully they will give me enough to
1) get the HP turbo
2) the 3.8L v6 engine that jbody built
and the new tranny phantom is working on (rated to handle about 450HP and 550torque.

01-31-2004, 08:12 PM
Hey talked to a buddy of mine.. He said that 10PSI is way too much for our engines..
"hes running to much boost and hes pinging detonation is too soon causes the engine to retard and hes loosing HP"


he said try running it at 6PSI and see what happens.

Oh and let me know about the hood, I can pay you as soon as you give me the okay :)

1GT2NV
02-01-2004, 01:02 PM
Hey guys, I had a great time. Hope to meet up again and race and go drinking. Anyways, I had a ball. What time did you guys go back? Were there a whole lot of car there? Out---

ND4SPDIII
02-01-2004, 10:19 PM
Yeah, it was badass guys, we left from there at 5:30 and got here to town at 8:30. Tido_29 your car is badass man, same to u Eddie, we should hang out again sometime soon. My friend with the 3000gt might go again like in 1 or 2 weeks. But we'll see.

Fausto I'll let u know about the hood.

Talk to u guys later :wave:

1GT2NV
02-02-2004, 01:54 AM
You guys should come over to H-Town to chill. Let us know. That would be cool. Out---

tido_29
02-02-2004, 03:01 PM
yeah man, i had a blast. I really wanted to stay so that we can race the other cars that got there.

Man, i got home.. you should have seen my filter (K&N) it was full of dirt.. maybe that is why i was running so high 15, since i was told that our cars should run mid15.. well who knows..

yeah, you guys should come over to H-town. It would be bad ass. Oh and about the hood.. just let me know (even if you decide to keep it). i might go w/ a carbon firber one if you keep it.
