  1. That feeling you get when your bank account drops below your "preferred safe level...." Still have money, but not the money I'd like to have. Fuckin car repairs.

      I like to have a "cushion" also. One gets used to buying expensive shit all the time and you start to lose your sense of money value.

      Pay out $3400.00 per month in bills but still have the audio account!

  2. Anyone who does older amp repair or knows who I should get in contact with to do it, let me know. Got a Zapco Z300S2VX that needs to be fixed...

      Sent him a message on fb, we'll see what he says.

      better off sending him a PM on caco sadly. I dont think he frequents facebook too much. could be wrong.

  3. Boring classes are the best time to doodle and come up with ideas. Mud truck's flatbed/extra seating plan is done and figured out.

  4. itv classes. such a fucking joke. missed two classes, took a quiz today, knew all the answers.

  5. Dammit always after I have my ideas finalized do I come up with other badass ideas... Fucking trunk 4th order ideas left and right now.

      Sounds like its all maintenance not money pit…… YET. LOL.

      140k lol. I've put 10k on it in 3-4 months, somehow some way. We only bought it for like $2300 iirc lol. In the last month I have sunk $500 in it. Mostly shit that has to be done between 100k and 150k miles.

      If it were me, Id go through the entire car and replace shit that is going to fail. Rear shocks, tie rod ends, bushings, etc. That way, you can be done with it and there will be no more surprise repairs. Thats just me though.

  7. Car is all fixed and running perfect...and now I have a collapsed fucking shock. Stanced volvo FTL!

      I'll finish it up tomorrow and shoot you a message with them. Got some final tweaking to do with it and it should be good.

      I'm ready to finally see what this hype is about.

      its in your fb messages.

  9. Stitches on one side pretty much fell out. Just a big ass gaping fucking hole in my mouth now. Joy.

  10. Got my wisdom teeth taken out today, all 4. Not in any pain at all, got some shitty pain pills I'm not even taking. Half my face isn't swollen or numb, but the other side is like I have bealls palsy or a stroke. WHAT THE FUCK?

      it'll be worse the second day once you swap the gauze out. But I know some people who are hardly affected the day after, though most are usually not too happy lol.

    3. Krakin

      Krakin

      I could have cared less theh day of the surgery, but Alan's right, once I switched out the gauze...

    4. boom50cal

      boom50cal

      Haven't had the gauze in since 2 yesterday. It's been 20 hours and its just now starting to feel a little uncomfortable.

  11. Stressing out about college...engineering or English Education? Enjoy writing a lot more than math...but I like solving overall problems...

    1. Krakin

      Krakin

      Just answer all of your engineering questions in paragraphs, or all of your English papers in variables.

  12. Haven't even started my build yet and already planning the rebuild. Lol, basslife.

  13. So a new front crank seal, water pump, idler puller, tensioner, and strut mount ordered for the Volvo. Bitch should be back to good by sunday night! Probably spent more money on it there than I have in gas in 4 months.

      i hate volvos....

  14. Build is going on hold before it really started. 80% of equipment is there, but my Volvo needs some top end work and general maintaince done...

    1. SlamminBeats

      SlamminBeats

      hate when the equipment is there but you cant install it!

  15. Pulling the cab is definitely the way to work on these OHC-equipped Ford trucks. 45 minutes to pull the head. Fucking easy.

  16. God dammit I hate working on this fucking truck so much. Pulling it off is a bitch and it's the easier part. Atleast it's a sohc, and not a dohc 3v or 4v...

  17. Pulling a head from a 4.6 SOHC...so much fun. Fucking ford, Y U HAVE TO BE SO DIFFICULT?

    1. OrionStang

      Its not that bad.

      Putting it back to gather is oh so much more fun.

      ls3 heads are by far easier

  18. Nothing that I hate more than calling in to work when I know my department needs me. Fucking flu.

  19. OBI has killer packaging.. would definitely buy from him again.

    1. Kyblack76

      Kyblack76

      OBI is a poop face.. Tell him that

  20. I'm a sucker for a badass sounding VW stroker motor...

    3. boom50cal

      boom50cal

      Lots of fun :) I'll give him a call tomorrow if I get the chance. Iirc, a shop out of central or northern California built it for him. Supposed to be 210hp at the wheels through a 4 speed sequential Mendeola trans, killer setup.

    4. Neckbeard

      Neckbeard

      Im prob gonna wall it off and make the motor nasty, i wanna keep the rusty look haha. Ill start a thread when the build starts!

  21. Well, my dad bought another truck today... 03 CCSB F-150, Fx4, 5.4, Auto. CLEAN AS FAWK.

    1. Keith77

      Keith77

      no one knows WTF a CCSB is.

  22. Now that the subs are here and power is picked out, electrical is being alloted for... how to build out of trunk is being faced now. SSD's in a 4th order?

    1. boom50cal

      boom50cal

      I'm seriously thinking about it... after Agreene's killer build... Either like his, or through the little hand rest hole in the back seat if I could snag enough port area. Would have to chop the seat back up though...

  23. New sub in, check. Car stickered up, check. Amps ___. Wiring ___. Batteries ___. Alt ___. FML, check.

    1. KillaCam

      You did that backwards lol.

      That was why I snapchatted on my tablet, and took pictures with my phone ;) but now my fucking nexus 7 is cracked to hell.

      Cracked from dat crack?

  25. Note to self: Never read a berger build log while your mom is walking about the house. Yoga pants questions will ensue.
