$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ I sent you a text BTW, let me know.

Shes back :)
And sexy as ever Ryan.

Put your DSLR back to use my friend ;)

Appreciate it! I was a bit nervous, as I've always had a polished lip...but I think it looks badass.
See you Sunday. We're going to slam your car too, right? Haha
Thank you thank you! DSLR will be in full effect soon. Have to get her ready for the really big Festivals of Speed event at the Ritz-Carlton in Orlando November 30-December 2.

Im actually going to bump it up a bit from the swift drop. Well maybe.....
Wonder if I will be ready for the Ritz Show..... Only thing that will hold me back is my wheels.

holy monkey balls, thats a sexy car.

Looks Awesome Ryan!!

Looking good man congrats on being back on the road:tup:

That car is awesome. Looking good, nice build write up. V10 sounds so good out those side pipes. You could not wash it for a year and it would still be sexy as hell!

Congrats and how much longer until the motor is broken in?

Thank you very much, everyone. It's so nice to finally walk into my garage and see this thing everytime. I've put about 150 miles on the motor so far. I'm driving down to Mr.&Mrs. today to help install his coilovers, so that will be 100 miles round trip. I'll drive it to work for the days it doesn't rain this week and then it should be broken in by the weekend. :driving: I'm doing 500 miles under 3k-3500 rpms.

The guy who did my Z exhaust just got back from SEMA, so the car will be with him soon to mod my exhaust so we can install the headers. Can't wait! Still trying to work on a Vipair '08+ hood.

hell yes

i cant help but be jealous lol.......... my gosh....... all that comes to mind is "race car" if i were you, id do nothing but track that thing :) haha.:happydance::driving:

Thanks again Ryan! It was a blast hanging out and doing some wrenching (even though I found myself cleaning a lot) on the car together. :rofl2:

Pictures do not do you car justice it is sooooooooooooooooooooo sexy! The wheels are nuts!

i Think its roadtrip to miami time!!

:tup:
I do plan on taking it to Sebring or Daytona in the future. I also will be heading to Bradenton to get some 1/4 mile times once my headers are installed. I think I'll finish it with a tune since my car runs SO rich right now. My eyes burn driving the car.:eek:
Thanks for trusting me to wrench on your beast. Get your wheels on so you can joing us at FoS.
I'll actually be close this weeeknd. I have a bachelor party to attend to in Ft. Lauderdale. I'm hoping:eekdance: I can drop my car off with my friend this weekend to do the exhaust, but we shall see. Instead of installing exhaust tips, I think I may just leave a nice 4" raw stainless steel pipe as a tip.

:tup: the car just LOOKS like it should be driven around the track

Anytime! I think the 4" raw pipe is a great choice, that car is so dirty (in a good way).

A few pictures from this weekend...I love this thing! I've already put 300 miles on it. Only 200 more left until I'm going to :driving:

Looks awesome! I can't wait to see and hear the car on video.

Wow, does that car look like it has a very long front nose.



Still nice.

Wow she is beautiful Ryan! I'm jelly :tup:

me too! Makes me want a viper :(

I actually looked at some the other day lol!

That long nose contains a V-10 engine! At one point was the largest Cubic Inch motor available in a car. Im not sure if that is still a true fact or not though.

awesome man!

Just came across this on facebook

I'm done. I'm ******* done. Motor just spun another rod bearing 600 miles later...how ironic...on the way home from another wedding. Yeah, I spun the other 2 rod bearings coming home from a wedding in June. I'm so ******* pissed. I'm done with cars.

nooooooooooooooo!!!!! do some woo sah's and try it again :tup: cars are a labor of love that sometimes need time :tiphat:

Damn dude. Your passion is your bad luck.

:( will they warranty any work?

Let me know if I can help man!

Wow sorry to hear.

damn, that sux!

God dammit... I've talked with you through PMs a while back, and you can tell you're a good guy... I'm sorry you keep getting the shít end of the stick...

Hire a lawyer if they won't warranty your motor bro, and sell it, stick to a stock fast car with a nice warranty and don't fúck with it

You have got to be kidding me :shakes head:

x2

Please let me know if there is ANY way I can help out man. DEpoint has it nailed on the head Ryan is one of the best guys out there. I hate to see this happen to you, so again give me a shout if you need anything!

Wow i just read your whole thread and thats some messed up ****. It seems like people are out to get you. Best of luck to you and your next car. I think its time to get a 2013 370z :stirthepot:

OMG man, I am so sorry to here that.. S_ _t... Sounds like the builders didn't compensate for the twist in the crank, that's the only way you would keep spinning those bearings. :wtf2:

I hope the shop will honor there F'd Up work.. Man I am so sorry this is happening to you. Dude you drop everything and help people all the time, this shouldn't be happening..

I can't believe this Ryan, unbelievable....

hope the builder will warranty it for you...

Ryan I feel for you buddy...I hate seeing bad things keep happening to good people.

Hopefully the builder will make it right for you and keep us posted!

Damn dude! That sucks! Tough, tough luck.
