Ribs for Dinner..? 16-02-09

Thanks alex. Was a good night. I had meat hangover too, but still had a huge subway for lunch. I had nightmares of ribs, far out they were huge.

-alex and I beg to differ, we were hammering in the mps6, left marcus for dead. ABS feels weird.



Conclusion for the night: everyone needs to fix the sounds of their exhausts, and marcus' seats rock

If you are would you like to stay with the random bunch of us, I think we are staying at mikes manor, but a booking hasnt been made, so i'll harass people till its done, but if you can put up with everyone, let me or fuzzlet know asap.!

Absolutely annihilated me. Once I felt the rear starting to twitch a little whilst on brakes, I figured it wasn't worth it. I even had a dream the night before that I wrote my car off after having an off and going up a fairly sizeable hill, which there was plenty of.

What's wrong with my exhaust? Bog stock sounds great!

I thought you'd already sat in my seats? It took you this long to realise?

It was just a general concensus. Not your exhaust but many of them including the silvia. Yeah i already knew your seats were good, still prefer buckets in an mx5 though.

Yea ur skyline is sounding very, non-skyline matt. Andrew definately needs to fix his exhaust. Talking to him tonite, he was saying he wants something quieter, along with a not so cracked resonator haha

man! i want those Mazdaspeed seats, too bad I already got a CF Boot :( Great seats marcus, so everyone still up for taking his seats, rolling the car upside down and getting the butterfly brace as well xD
What you've done ot your car seems to be my route as well, go for as much suspension and body work as possible before the engine.

I was originally gonna balance it out with power mod slash handling mod, then rinse and repeat. Just didn't work out that way though :P

On the upside, once the sways are in, it's pretty much all power related stuff. It means I can do it once and do it right that way. Suspension can be fairly modular without any overal detrimental effect (in general) whereas with power, you can be chasing NA power, then all of a sudden decide to go FI, and you've just wasted a bucketload of cash.

Meh. Once I've got the sways in, I'll weigh up my options. Chances are I'm gonna supercharge it anyway, so I'll see what's best for the application and go from there.

Get a turbo, sc is only good for autocrossing and you don't do that.

Hah! This coming from the guy that wanted to supercharge his '5 from the start.

Tell you what... put your turbo back in and let me have a drive. If that won't convince me, nothing will :P
