  1. you do realize that these lights would be completely illegal. Just letting you know that you can end up with a hefty fine for blue lights on the exterior of the car. Blue is reserved for police. Thats why most underglow kits are green. Of course I could be wrong with all this. Im 90% sure that blue is illegal. If you are just doing this for show course its fine but if you are going to cruise down the road with these on you run the risk of getting pulled over and the potential for "impersonating a police officer". Trust me, I know someone that got that down here in FL.
  2. The switch? Hook up a voltometer (dunno how to spell it) to see if its getting 12v like it should. That would be my guess on how to test it. Well I guess that would test the lines before it. Electricity is not really my thing.
  3. Some zip ties and she'll be good as new man. Glad everyone is ok. Ive had the same luck as you. Two rear-end collisions and Ill admit one was definately my fault but going 50+ in a Dakota quadcab when a Honda locks their tires right in front of you is no fun. Ill just have to say, she had some issues opening what was left of her trunk after that. Good luck with everything man.
  4. Not this year, sorry. As a college student, these gas prices seem to be on the right track now. If only tuition would go down as well....
  5. LOL desert. Looks like he was out in Coventry near Johnson's Pond area. Whatever road thats on 401 i think.
  6. Rhode Island is about the size of a county in Arkansas. It makes it really easy to go all over the state.
  7. Disappointed I couldnt make it. Next time you get out to the track Eric just give me a heads up on here. I try to get down there every once in a while.
  8. Helmet for 13.9 or less. I was just there on Wed. and a Ford GT ran, they made the guy wear a helmet and kicked the passenger out. The guy didnt know how to drive the car and ran a 14 something. I was also wearing shorts but bring a pair of pants just in case.
  9. Plus I believe Joseph on here can hook you up if you PM him.
  10. Most likely wont be able to make it to this one. Gotta work all weekend. I dont like to take time off, since I may never get the hours back. Ill be at the track on Wednesday if any locals want to swing by. Btw, Eric what time do you plan on starting everything on Saturday. I can go for a little while if there are gonna be people there in the morning. Gotta work in Daytona at 5 pm though.
  11. Im gonna try to swing by the track on Friday. I have a nice little raincheck from May in the car so I will be using that. Not that anything has really improved on my car...its fun to hit the track every once in a while.
  12. Yea that was some nice oil you got coming out from there. Might want to look into that problem before you go ahead and do anything else. Exhaust sounds good. Makes me want the K&R exhaust even more now...
  13. Easy fix. Do a search, there is some good info on it. You may need an alignment afterwards if its not done perfectly though.
  14. Almost all of those plastic pieces I have seen on 850s and S70s have worn out along the flexing points (ridges). I wouldnt worry if its a little worn and exposed. If its torn in half I would replace it. Cant be too expensive from a dealer. Part number is right on it.
  15. So if a foreign nation invaded your home town, you would just sit there and let them roll through. Defending ones land as a civilian if far different from attacking another as a civilian. If some country came into my town I would be at the local gunshops in no time. I would defend my family and my property. But I wouldnt just go to Canada and start shooting people in the streets.
  16. Ive seen that before. Notice the Muslim still argues. That just tells you how he thinks and how their education and religious beliefs teach them that only their way is correct. Not that all Muslims are like that. Just the radicals.
  17. Easy if you have some tools. I might be up at Jeremy's place looking for some help if the time comes during the school year. I wouldnt have a problem except compressing the tensioner. I just dont have an assortment of tools handy at home or school. It was 500 for parts and labor at my indie last time we had it done on my old car. Tensioner, t-belt, serp belt, water pump/gasket, and a couple pullies make it seem expensive. Itll be fun when, where and however I do this.
  18. Definately not looking forward to this next year. Let me know how much the parts cost Joseph. I have to prepare myself for this cost.
  19. Kiwi dye time! Looks good. Those rims from the T5 look better on the new GLT IMO. They are in the South remember.
  20. Ill try to take one of those days off. Might bring down a buddy if he wants to spend the day with a bunch of Volvos.
  21. Forgot to mention the weather. I got burnt out there. Overall the weather couldnt have been better though.
  22. Great food, great cars! It was nice to finally put a face to the names.
  23. Congrats...I almost didnt submit anything after I saw that.
  24. When you are in Daytona for the races and bike week...it will be more than soon enough. Trust me. See you down there the 26th.
  25. and for the next car to turn some heads: hahah that would turn some heads if you got this thing to move out of its own way. Oh and GL with the sale. I think most on the board admire your car. Who ever buys this car better baby it, thats all I gotta say about it.
