hey guys, just wanted to let everyone know that i purchased the wrong thermostat for my car through summit. ended up ordering one for an Gen III instead of Gen II. if anyone is interested in buying this one ill sell it to you for the summit price and ill eat the shipping and taxes on it. this is the link to it, and im asking 47.00 for it. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/HYP-1014/

ive already had to pay the tax and shipping so wont go any lower. if i dont sell it by next week then ill just return it and get the correct one.

by the way sheik, you need to hurry up and get back here! we need that LS1 out beatin down the stangs with us. plus i just love to listen to the crazy **** you say all the time. i also have a lil money for you! lol when you get back are we getting started on that intake swap???? hows the 97 comin along?? let me know.

Scott is gone for the week. The intake swap will happen sometime, just got to see what happens with work. There is a rumor that some people will be coming back here. Need to buy some more parts for the ss. Just have to see what the money looks like when I get back and get settled in. Need to get a fuel pump, catch can, and want to do the truck coil swap.

Brembo blanks, hawk pads, and the german brake fluid Sam recommends. It's what I run and I love the brakes in my car. Call Sam Strano, he'll sell you what works not what's the most expensive. Have you upgraded your brake lines yet?

Well time to find a new spot then and keep them idiots away. I REALLY hate those mustang owners. I figured they would screw up a good thing for everyone. I think the import guys hang out at the bowling alley by target, we could move over to that area. Eventually those same idiots will ruin the park spot as well. Hopefully natural selecton will kick in and weed out the morons.

My driver side skinning blew while beating up on some bikes going about 150 mph. The tire shredded the plastic wheel well and dented up the fender pretty bad, cracked my side groud effect too. So I'm just going to replace the entire fender and trim pieces all at once. Needless to say I'm starting the prep work this afternoon. I've been thanking GOD ever since. I've also decided that my street racing days are over and when we hang out it's going to be at the track on fridays and not anywhere in columbus. I'm just tired of the trash talk and the immaturity. So no more racing unless it's at the track, forget these CLOWNS!!!!

yeah it has gotten to be pretty rediculous. everyone wants to call people out and then not show back up, or have an excuse such as claiming they broke a part when they really didnt. just gets to be so tiresome having to deal with such immaturity. sheik, you need to get your *** back here man! lol

Well I bought my first part for the nitrous system. I got the nitrous daves kit for the car. Still got alot of parts to buy, looking to get tuning software next. Once I get that then I'll finish getting the nitrous stuff and fuel system upgraded. So what parts do I need to get quotes on?

Just a driver side fender and rocker panel. I was looking at it yesterday and the fender lines are off a good bit. That tire did a number on it, so replacing it would be a better choice and the rocker GFX is cracked where you put the iroc decal insert. But that's it.

Thanks Sheik
