  1. I would love to go again this year, but I am a couple thousand miles away Last year was insane! If anybody on this forum has the time free, I would recommend you go!
  2. screw a viper get this..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fDrzMGdYWZc Just thought you could use a little humor. But, man that sucks. I know how you feel. I had my barn broken into a few years back and they took about 10 HU's, 5 or 6 amps and 4 subwoofers. Luckly I got it all back from a kid who was asked to store everything. He knew it was mine because he had been over before and bought some stuff from me. But he wouldn't tell me who actually stole everything. (even after I popped him in the jaw a few times) The real shitty thing about it was I eventually found out it was my cousin who broke in, but I didn't find that out till I got stationed out here in Hawaii.
  3. I was trying to think of how this is possible. did they solder onto the bearings and use those as speaker terminals? Thats the only way I could think of to make it possible, unless they spin the other way as well?
  4. you watch raywilliamjohnson don't you? But yes, definatly badass. wish I had the extra money just to swap SRT motors into minivans just cuz I felt like it....
  5. I personally don't like gorilla glue because it expands when it drys, which gets everywhere. I use a product called PL Premium. I used it when I was a contractor and was amazed by what it could hold together. I lay about a 1/4-1/2" bead and when you screw the boards together, it squashes out. You can take a peice of scrap to scrape all the excess off and it seals your joints perfectly. If you are going to screw your box together, I personally use 1 5/8 coarse thread screws and I pilot drill every hole with a 3/32 drill bit. It does tend to split slightly, but if you go slow it won't.
  6. It's never too late to add to the dispute. anything that you can give them is only going to help your side.
  7. I had a question and VIPmeetSPL asked it too. How are you gonna know who's facebook and youtube accounts are who's? are you going to just send them a message on that account?
  8. OP, like I said before look into local auctions (sherriff, public, and private). If your good with fixing cars look into wrecked vehicals (clean titles obviously bring more that salvage titles) You will find a range of many different cars, trucks, ect. I was able to make a good amount of cash when I was your age doing this. Yes, you might have to wake up extreamly early for an auction, but so what. Where do you think used car dealerships get their cars? Its a way to skip the middle-man and save a bunch of money.
  9. I say a lot less. Ive gone threw mine in 3 months and it was no near that lol WTF! I can't even imagine what that would be like. I threw a leveling kit on my truck and my camber is like 1.5* out, and I am hoping that my tires last till January when I get my tax refund back to buy my 36's
  10. Man, when I was 16 I had a 1992 Formula Firebird and a 1990 300zx. I got both these cars for $500 a piece. Look into local auctions and there are also companies that buy wrecked cars from insurance companies. I got the Firebird from a friend of my dad who tows cars for a living and the owner never paid the tow bill. The 300z came from a sherriff auction, it was involved in a drug bust and no body wanted to bid on it because it had 140K+ miles on it. I also used to go down to a place called "Best Wrecks" and buy wrecked cars and trucks for 30-50% of their retail value. Then I would buy all the parts to put them back together and sell them and make a killing. Just some things I used to do to earn my own cash without having to be dependent off of my parents. I also never had to take out a loan or save up for a very long amount of time. Sure the first car I did took 6 months to completly fix, but after I sold it, I had all the cash I needed to immediatly buy the next car and the parts to fix it.
