I just got back from the SEMA show and finally got to see the new solenoids.
WOW! these things are totally bad-***. They had them along with the older style ones, so you could pick up each. The new ones feel weightless in comparison.
Very very nice looking parts, can't wait to get some on my car.
Hurry up Ricky!

 

hey working as fast as I can on these... Most of the bodies are machined waiting on the guts to come in..
Did you enter your name in the drawing for some free ones?
free noids give away.
Ricky

 

Yeah I entered, but remember my car uses 5 solenoids

 

Speaking of drawings, did you enter the drawing for the Silvia at the NX booth?

 

You guys are giving away the silva?

 

Unless Mike changed his mind while driving to Vegas, yes we are giving away the Silvia. Brian tore it down to a bare shell and completely rebuilt it and repainted. The car is now yellow and is set up for drifting. The winner will pick the car up at next year's SEMA show.

But then again, you know Mike......so things could've changed between hear and Vegas, lol.

 

huh, I didn't notice any drawing for the car. I did see the car and Brian there.

So, What else was new at SEMA? Come on guys I know you got some pictures of the hotties!

 

There were so many stripper/models/hotties at the show, probably 500 of them anyway. It was pretty nice.
As far as the nitrous scene goes. NOS's booth had the same stuff that you've been seeing in Summit for the past 10 years or so. But they did have a 15 ft tall display nitrous bottle which would look nice in my garage. Edelbrock had 1 or 2 kits on display, nothing new.
NX definetly took the show. They had a huge booth with lots of new stuff. Obviously the new solenoids were there, they had drop spraybar plate kits for carb'd cars which I had never seen before, and some new ford plate systems.
The show was so big it took 2 days of steady walking to get through it, and I'm sure I missed some stuff.
I only took 1 picture from the show, and it was from the american racing booth, they had a General lee, which I can't pass up the opertunity of taking a picture of the General.

 

I wish I could have made it this year. I always enjoy going.
