  1. I planned on going to bed early. Then I started looking at your build log again for some unknown fucking reason. Its almost 1... I hate you for the precision mdf cuts on angles. Un-fucking believable. I can never get my head wrapped around opposing angles sometimes. Love the build, keep it coming, and all the little tricks like the multiple angled pieces taped to one square piece and run along the rip fence. Keep that shit coming! thats awesome.
  2. Holy god this is taking forever. Re-encoding my music collection...from cd to FLAC. Hour 3 just went by...

      last time i did that shit i had to redo 800 cd's worth of music and it took 2 weeks to get it all ripped back onto my hard drives.

      lol yea...I should have done this a long time ago...with an SSD.

  3. yea what is the process for butyl based deadeners? I am guessing the bug and tar is only for asphalt based crap.
  4. amplifier section would probably be best. audible distortion on a brand new amp is interesting at best...a bad amp at worst. But thats 1 scenario, could be 50 different things, start with the simple stuff and work your way up (see RCAs)
  5. "started out with nuthin and still got most of it left"

  6. I love ford trucks. I miss my superduty so bad. Are you planning to chip it or anything? I hear the ecoboost loves a good tune on it, apparently some of the fleet mechanics have been playing with them a bit. (I know you've had this thing like a day though)
  7. new house of cards is awesome.

      yea no I work for uncle sam. So I do adult daycare all day er'y day.

      And yea....I do....gonna hit it tomorrow got some wire brushes and shit to knock off the surface ruse and some rust sealer/POR15 paint.

  9. did that thing not have wheelie bars?! Yea thats strange too that it did that mid track. Seen it right off the line a lot but not that far down the track. Must be the delay in power delivery from the turbos... Do they run NOS?
  10. car is kicking my ass right now. have it totally stripped but it looks like I am going to have to do some metal work on top of the audio install...

  11. Damnit! I may have to pickup BF4....built my PC for bf3 about two weeks before 4 came out...
  12. Mechman 370 alternator which outputs 200+amps at idle and 370 at speed. (1) XS Power D4900 (1000CA and 80Ah for starting the vehicle) (3) XS Power XP2500 (CA doesn't matter their supplemental and 100Ah per battery) I based this off of Ah which is probably wildly wrong but whatever. So yea I am guessing 375 amp draw for 1 hour....and the 4 batteries could handle that when fully charged. Knowing the wattage and whether its a 12v/14v/16v system would help too.
  13. a waste of a perfectly good F-series Ford pickup. hahaha thats a duramax bro beans lol well yea know...took me a second I guess.
  14. a waste of a perfectly good F-series Ford pickup. holy shit...it was so covered in crap I didn't even notice....yea its a dirtymax See below...
  15. Time to get my lazy ass outside and measure for my sub box!

  16. Bought a Orion XTR 475, great communication and very prompt. Great doing business with him. Came as advertised and on time with a AMP Dyno sheet and a spec sheet from the manufacturer. Awesome transaction.
  17. fuck a subaru. Might as well drink the haterade since everyone else is in this thread. Group B bitches. Now THOSE were rally cars.
  18. actually mid 12's are pretty standard STOCK and 13's are standard when the driver messes up (or doesn't have much experience). I would probably do 13's with my 300lb system, my 235lb body and my lack of experience. It don't need perfect conditions just needs a driver that knows when to take off and when to shift. Mid 11's are more rare but like i said, headers and a shot of NOS and it isn't so rare any more. bet tires would get you a bit more. Slicks and cool day do wonders. i would rather not have slicks on my daily driver. But i have 285's so there is a lot more meat than people think. Understood, I am in the process of getting a separate rear rim set and slicks for test and tune days. Definitely should do a basshead meet up at the track. I would drive my ass to texas for that! Its a great time, but only if you can get a bunch of runs in.

  20. meh. Most cars need a trans worth a shit and a tune and they would be fine. finding out a quarter mile time took me one truck scale and a horsepower rating to find out....which I took 25% off of the horsepower rating cuz it has 116K on the motor. Was real easy to find out how fast I would go. People need to quit bench racing.
  21. look 12 second passes down mean shit unless you can put down a 156 on the meter while doin it. We all know that.
