So yeah, you all know what happened. Now what should I do with my Eclipse? Engine if first priority, but what next? And what about body work? Any suggestions? The Supra was white, but now I am going for a gunmeta/chrome look. Tell me all about your ideas!

Hehehe, I'm getting a new carb and ignition on the mustang. I clocked ~.3 miles at just over 12 seconds. I didnt have a watch or anything, I used the classic 1 Alligator, 2 alligator ;)

Clocking mechanisims are easy. Ya stick them to parts of your car and hit a button when you want to begin. They take over from there! Its definatly SWEET!!

BTW, the dry-nitrous carborator comes in tommorow morning, the carb alone should give me a good boost, plus the NOS always works its magic. :) Mad props to Nitrous Express who got me free shipping on it after a major mess-up on thier end. :P

Isn't it kinda dangerous to be staring at a stopwatch while you're driving that fast?:P

Why should our government send our soldiers to foreign soil to protect freedom of speech, when our freedom of speech is being taking away everyday by the same government.

BADDA BOOM! HAH! Got my response time down some more now that I am used to the clutch. My best time tonite was 10.3 ON THE DOT! (bite me silky :P) After revieving the performance recordings though, we think that I shouldn't try to run it any faster until the carborator gets in AND I can get some quality time of the belt (:P) and tightening the camshaft. After that I am going to see how hot I run and see if I really NEED to adjust the exaust and cooling systems.

No offence taken Silky, I mean, come on! Stock it ran a 16 second qm so getting it down to 11.94 is good for only replacing the engine.

The cool-air intake goes in tonite BTW, and I have a couple bottles of fuel mixture that I am going to play with since I need to fuel it up, gonna do that after I make a run or two with the intake. Thanks to the WONDERFUL people at FedEX (from now on I am shipping UPS :() then my new nos injecting carborator is going to be delayed until this friday :o. Soooooo yeah. Thats that.

Oh yeah! My back! ;) Took the first advil I have needed all weekend this evening, and thats only because I hadn't streched this morning :), other than that it's feeling just as if I hadn't messed it up at all! WOOT! :D

edit:// Besides Silky, you had a friggin Saleen. This puppy will shove 64 psi down yours after I am done with it ;)

When you say floor lights do you mean interior lighting or under-carriage lighting?
