I wanted to start something new, for the Midwest region to help revive the SRT owners in general.
Brian (schlol) created the main page design as usual, and the forum colors.
I'm more technical than he is, he's more creative than I am so it balances out.
Glad everyone is so far enjoying this sudden change.

Ramsrides,
I talked to some people in the trans lab at work today. They told me if you run that trans without repairing the damage. Most certain your bell housing will fracture and split. They recomend removing the trans and having it welded. We can use the epoxy but they don't think it will hold up. I tried to weasel a new trans or housing but none avail. Caliber uses a diff. trans. My welder can mig alum.

My welder can mig alum.
But can you mig aluminum? I know I sure as hell cant, well I can but you wouldn't want it anywhere that may be seen. Mig welding aluminum sucks in general.

So I am in the market for some wheels, 18's would be preferred, maybe 17's if I feel poor that day. Money from the Bronco is already burning a hole in my pocket, and I don't even have all of it yet.
I can spend a little more on wheels than I first expected... take off tires on ebay are cheap!!!! I can get a set of 275/60/18 tires for under 300 shipped!

what kind of wheels interest you?
Black with machined lips are my favs for the red truck.. but I have seen a few others that I like too... I am still debating just buying some 300 a set takeoffs from ebay and powdercoating them gloss black.. but man some of those rims have just enough bling but not too much for me.
like these.. I wouldnt mind sporting them.... if I can fandangle them cheap enough... lets see if this works now...

i think these would look good on her car. she can get them powdercoated black, white, bronze, silver or grey. can also specify if you want a polished lip or not. or you could get them in a polished finish as shown. $239 each.

Hey tom got a story for you (just cause your a Honda guy)
Couple nights ago my buddy was racing a gutted CRX, and a turbo h22 hatch. The CRX had a S/C 1.8l w/50 shot. It hung with the SRT up to 160. SRT has S3, MPx exhaust, CAI, 60mm TB, ported intake manifold, etc.
Makes me wanna turn back to the dark side, lol

Second thing, I'm going to switch the Focus over to Amsoil. Hopefully it'll make it run a little better and squeeze some more MPG out of it!

change the selection box to "no email notification"
tom6433
11-12-2005, 10:46 AM
what that will do is when you post in a new thread, it will add it to "your subscriptions." so for example, you post in here, it will be added to your subscriptions. so when you get online all you have ot do is click on "user cp" and it will show you any thread you are posting in that have had new posts in them since you last viewed the thread.
tom6433
11-12-2005, 10:47 AM
another trick is, when you go to your "user cp" and there is a thread that has a/some new posts in it, you can click on the little down arrow just to the left of the thread title and it will take you to the first post that you have not read yet.

so we took soulstrife's car apart. basically i think the alignment shop lied to him. they told him he has over -1.5 degree of camber in the front. i showed him mine which is set @ -1.03 and by comparing the two there is no way his is anywhere close to having that much negative camber. and it looks like the toe is way out on the passenger side, the side that is rubbing.
we did take the passenger side spring & strut assembly apart and repositioned the spring. the driver's side looked ok so we left it alone.

and thank you for helping me! i can't find that print out they gave me, but what i am going to do is buy real camber bolts...non-mopar ones and have my service guy get it aligned right. you think the back look ok? if so I'll just order front camber bolts ... less money :)

A Visit From St. Nick
‘Twas the night before Christmas and out on the streets,
Only Mopars were winning against Fords and Heartbeats.”
The stop lights were hung over the streets with care,
Getting ready to change for those drivers who dare.
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of Hot Wheels danced in their heads.
My wife was on the phone and I in the garage
Staring at my Miss Mopar collage,
When out on the drive rolled up such a rumble,
You knew for the owner it was hard to be humble.
I recognized the sound but had to see for myself.
I knew this was no blue oval elf.
I was right, there it was in its bright flame red glow,
An ’04 srt4 built for the go.
The black billboard split as the door opened wide,
A large sack of parts was first tossed outside.
A leg swung out with a tall black boot,
Then there he stood in a red and white suit.
It was Santa, St. Nick, in all of his glory.
“But Santa, please tell me, just what is the story?”
“Where is your sleigh, your eight tiny deer?”
He said, “I traded them in on 230 horses and a limited slip gear!”
“I test drove ‘em all, every single sport compact car,
But none can beat Chevy’s’ like a turbo Mopar.”
“And son you’ve been good and learned all the tricks.”
“So with a clamp, intake, T/B, and a wastegate you should run about a 12.6.
So he grabbed up his tools and went straight to the chore,
The swap took him one hour, no less and no more.
This guy was good but something wasn’t right,
Santa couldn’t have learned to do that overnight.
He tightened the last nut and then walked away.
“With this,” he said proudly, “you’ll beat ‘Chevy’s all day.”
All at once it hit me, I recognized the voice.
His skills with the tools, his smartass words of choice.
Once I figured it out, it was really no surprise.
This was Lon Burlin in a Santa disguise.
He collected up his tools and went back to his ride,
Put his stuff in the trunk and hopped back inside.
With a whine from the turbo the beast came alive,
And with a shift to reverse he backed out of my drive.
With short throw in hand he shifted into first,
And the Neon jumped forward with a quick but smooth burst.
I could see he was happy about what he had done,
He had turned my car into major Mopar fun.
But he had to be going, he had much to do,
Lots of Turbos to be clamped in hours too few
And I heard him exclaim as he snatched 2nd gear…
“Have a smooth running Christmas and I’ll see ya at Milan Next Year.”
P.S. I test drove my car down the street and back again.
It took just two minutes where it used to take ten.:smily_ang
I know it's still early, But it's just around the corner!
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
