Your nose is growing.... :imo: I am the all knowing guru, you can't fool me!! :pepper:

Naw... I'm working on helping Dirt Mafia with a turbo setup (likely a T70) and Matt as well...but I don't like turbos. I'm not down for the dinky looking spinny exhaust mod... I like being blown :crazy: My last truck was blown, and I miss it


dizzle, is that you?

:lol::rofl2:

:nutkick:

Dude, they're still 37's. ******* big tire. In a month or 2 I'll have a new setup on for sure though :secret:

Jenna like being blown too :pepper:

:crazy:

One of my buddies just built a turbo setup on the 2002 and another has an E30 that he's blowing. I'm definitely liking the blower more. The turbo is cool shit and what not but I like the instant feel of the blower. I don't like being teased...when I put my foot down that is

I think this is much much better than Corsa exhaust systems :Handshake: so I think it would take A LOT of ******* to get him to drop ship ya one of these!! :popcorn:

You gonna head down to Ventura County for the meet next week? He is heading out there to do some tuning and then meeting me up in Long Beach. Putting money down on a 1900 for the TBSS then too :shocked: SO EXCITED!!!

Looks good and interesting man!!!
You def. need bigger tires to make that Silvy pop off?
Was the negative camber in the pic caused by worn suspension, and what about the Cali?

No bigger tires....at least not now. I'll find out how it does in the dunes this weekend. It will be getting new wheels with a better backspacing to push the tires out more.

The alignment was due to not doing anything about it when we put the lift on basically.

As for the Cali....I can't afford new springs out back, so I did a shackle flip, 2" shackle, 1" Zero Rate, stock springs w/ AAL. I'll throw some 4" leafs back there eventually and maybe 2 " Zero rate. I need to rotate the axle so we'll see what I do when I get around to that....I have no clue. I just want to get it driving at the moment. Haven't driven it in over 3 months now.
