^^^Damn you and your rep legion!!! I just cant stand the damn Lemming Effect in there, like stated, VAD could be a better forum if people aren't dicks just to be dicks. If you're gonna blast somebody, atleast have a reason other than "Oh thats what all the cool kids do" bullshit. Atleast when I blast kids in here, I give them a reason why.

Fagles...the official word of VADriven. For some reason, when I see that word, this pop in head.

lol fagles

Thinking about going to an autocross event at Pungo next month, is it even worth? I guess it wouldn't hurt to get some track time with my car, even if it is just dodging cones.

Never been to pungo but I hear it sucks dak. Lots of cracks in the concrete, grass growing through it that nobody cuts. Stuff like that. I will say I went a couple times and it seemed more sociable than other autoX events. Lots of kickass cars too, cobra kits and such. I did a few ride alongs and had quite a lot of fun.

If you want a better venue, try ACU4 at the little creek base. It is run by the same group and is a much better surface to run on. I actually tried to sign up for the next one in mid May today but it was filled up. They have a few more coming up though. I'll definitely be attending the earliest one that still has spots. Haven't autocrossed since early last year and I want to get back into it.

Also, lol @ the faggle pic. Shits getting hard on driven. They won't let us rip on the dick riding Honda for sale faggles so the pickings have become quite slim as far as people whose jimmies we can rustle goes

Well, I'm trying to rent this house off Thomas Nelson in Hampton...if everything works out, I'll be in there when I get back. Probably wont be able to move all my shit in till after I get back from CA in July. But 2 car garage...

just watched a video of the ACU course, does look a lot better. would be cool if we could do some sideways out there but nobody likes that around here.

My mom lives in Thomas Nelson which house are you looking at? It might be one of the few my god mother owns there lol.

[fliprayzin240sx]

2 Scarborough, literally right off the corner from the main road coming from TNCC to Bethel.

I checked in with my old apartment and they raised their rates to almost $1250, then $200 for my 2 garages, its cheaper for me to move into a damn house.

I know that house, unfortunately its not one that my god mother owns. I'll ask her if she has any available to rent in Hampton/NN. What you looking to pay?

[240sxTyler]

i need a recommend

about to have this fully built SR but will be running stock turbo setup for the meantime while I save up for a new one.
I know I wanna do external gate but i don't know which turbo/manifold I should get, also want to get above 300hp for sure. I'm running on low budget but I want the best for my money.

Question is, what turbo are you planning on running later down the road? If you say larger than a GT2871R, ie GT30XX, then you'd pretty much have to spend the money on a good T3 flanged top mount manifold. But if your plan is GT2871R, which I recommend myself, then get with CodyAce and have him extrude hone the stock manifold and weld an external wastegate V-band flange on it.

I absolutely refuse to buy a house here. I have no reason to want to stay here more than another year or 2. I see my ass going to Korea or volunteering for a White House Comm gig, to get the hell out of Langley.

$1500, maybe a bit more if its really nice with 2 garages. Also must be pet friendly since I have a dog.

I disagree. This is a great place to own a home. Pay on it for a few years and then move the hell out of the area. Then you can rent it out to the swarm of military people that are always coming and going around here.

My problem is that I dont want to have to worry about having a property out here without anybody I trust to keep an eye on it. Plus, most properties out here are older than my mom. I absolutely hate the rancher style, sub-1100 sq feet homes out there.

[fliprayzin240sx]

Bought 2 shirts and got trolled by Dorkidori...

I dunno man, insurance would cover anything. I hear you on the tiny ranches though. I got a 2 story because I looked at a couple of ranches and the space available didn't justify the price.

[240sxTyler]

Anybody experienced wiring up the Type X turn signals and fog lights to work for the USDM harness? My lights came with the bulbs but no pigtail wire, just the female connector. Is there a way I can make this work or do I need to source some male connector pigtails?

[Yardjass]

No idea. I know less than nothing about 240's.

[crzsteveo]

yo tyler, you can swing by my place if you want to wire up your type x tails. just copy mine lol

[240sxTyler]

needed help with the bumper lights, bought the tail lights already wired for USDM.
Just found some male connectors to order though, hopefully i can figure out the wiring.

[crzsteveo]
