I am down here in Annapolis MD. :p

 

Yes, used to do body work and detail high end cars back in the day. Well done.

Thanks!! I have my next batch of M205 and M105 on order along with my 6 inch Meguiars MF cutting pads and some Griots black polishing foams pads on order. I need to buy a 3 inch backing plate and some 4 inch pads for doing around the sunroof, and whatever else.

Also have Griots glass polishing pads and glass polish on order!


ALSO, mister pepper is driving under his own power again.

 

Thanks!!

 

Nice used to use 3M in the past, great stuff but very expensive. Dimple pads are the best.


The CG Chemical guys stuff is great and cost allot less then the 3M stuff. Also i really like there car cleaning products, great smell , and comes in large bottle sizes. Like gallons.

Chemical guys

 

So am I. How have we not run across each other? I'm in the HB/W with tinted windows. I'm sure we will run across each other at some point.

 

I'm a cape boy.

Me and a few friends run a small car meet in Edgewater on Tuesdays. You're welcome to come out!

 

grilles are going on this weekend. also stuffing my light bar behind the grille

 

Nice, i want to see that .

 

Update!





How toothless looks now.

Grilles have been installed, lightbar installed, and Scroth harnesses installed, also Invidia catback, 17% pulley and Alta intake!





Soon to be... Sparco Pro Corsas.. 17x7.5 and going to be wrapped in Pilot Super Sports 225 45 17!

 

Nice - I'm on the other side of MD (Frederick).

 

you go to any car meets? Me and a group of friends host a car meet every other tuesday at Hooters in Laurel next to the laser tag, if you are able to come out! (i cant remember where Frederick is on a map...)

 

From Laurel, with no traffic, Frederick is about 30-40 minutes away (where 70 and 270 come together). I try to go to cruise nights. Hagerstown (https://www.facebook.com/ClassicCarGroupForChildrenINC/) has a massive one.

There's a british car event coming to Adamstown (Frederick) on June 5th:

I do try to make Hagerstown (they have a cruise in nearly every Saturday night) and I will try to make the Frederick Golden Gears events too.

 

Tonight is a car meet at the Nautilus diner in Crofton. I might be out there tonight. Is probably too far for you. It starts around 7 if you find that you want to come..

 

Yep - kinda hard to get anywhere in the Metro DC area during the week and during traffic.

 

I HAVE RETURNED.

I now have a set of wilwood 6pot TCE specials with the R56 JCW brembo rotors and BP10 pads.

I also now have my sparco pro corsas fitted with pilot super sports in 225 45 17. no rubbing.

 

What offset are those? They look nice.

 

Here's an update

Here is how the car sits now




Changes?

Hella 500FF lights with OEM brackets





Eibach rear swaybar (20mm)






AAAAAAAAAAAAND, ST-X coilovers.




I have a set of rear arms courtesy of Donald the Boland off eBay, and a set of SPC (Eibach) front camber plates, then one final alignment and my suspension is done for now minus some bushings, some alignments, some rolling of fenders, some ride height setup, etc. eventually, i will swap to PS9 or PS10 coilovers.

I also have a set of mini H1 projectors (morimoto 7.0) with a set of demon eyes. I will be doing a full LED conversion for my tails and then "redding" them out, along with installing a third reverse light.

Will also be doing a full custom wiring harness install. I need to redo the one for my light bar (that I need to move down more...) and I am going to move all 4 ballasts from hanging off my headlights into a bracket based holder (for all of my ballasts) so I can just have wiring going to my headlights for an ultra clean install.

I also am going to be picking up a set of 75w (yes 75watt) HID ballasts for my Hella 500's.



They grow up so fast...




I am also going to be cleaning and paint sealing my white wheels for winter since my Pro corsas have pilot super sports and my white sparcos have A/S3's

Thanks everyone!

 

Nice! Your car is like my twin but yours is much cleaner

 

better show some pictures...

 

I have A lot of photos here

assembled the adjustable control arms and the girlfriend is bringing over my camber plates for me. gonna do one final ride height calibration, hammer the inner fenders a bit on the rear, cut out a good chunk of the wheel liner in the rear and then do an alignment with the camber plates and all!

 

turns out someone on ebay has a cruel sense of humor and sent me the wrong plates.

i 1day shipped "acdelco" ones off ebay (looks like eibach i'll know tomorrow if the construction is the same) for less than i paid for these "spc" plates (which are eibach)

if theyre the sale plates i might buy the 150 dollar ones off ebay that look just like spc ones to see if theyre all from the samr factory..

 

last pic of the year before the white winter wheels go back on from when i first purchased the vehicle.





have plans for it this winter. right now its leaking coolant and the airbag light is on (into the dealer i go for my free recall..) and im pretty sure the water pump is leaking, so replacing that, servicing the supercharger, front crank position sensor, DT bypass valve, new belt tensioner. along with that an oil change for the trans and engine.

Plans are, front control arm bushings (have powerflex sitting in my room) methanol, a cam (havent decided yet) along with a header (rmw shorty) injectors and last but not least a tune from rmw. remote, but ill have some dyno logs to send him. aiming for 220whp for now.

come next autocross and track season i am going to be running Bp20 pads in my wilwoods, might be upgrading to a 2piece 13.1 inch rotor, havent decided yet, and going to run 16x7 or 16x8 RPF1s with toyo RR tires. hoping to set some blistering times..
