Thanks man
Parked at the mall. I am going to file an accident report. Will anything come of that? They might have video surveillance of the other car. It was probably their kid.

Went for a nice two hour cruise, top down the whole time! Today was beautiful, about 60 deg and sunny! Really enjoyed the day and the CAR!

My car has less than 200 miles on it, so I am certainly not replacing it if I don't have to. I will see it it makes noises after I get me exhaust delivered and hooked up. The NST kit comes with no instructions, but if you check out the Stillen site under their pulley, you can download an instruction sheet if that helps.

Glad to hear you got it all back together. If I pick up a pulley its gonna be the Stillen. No alternator pulley for me. I take it the NST kit comes w the alternator pulley as well? Did your butt dyno register any change after installing the pulley? Im sure she revs a bit quicker now

Still waiting on my CBE to get here. Said it was supposed to ship the end of this week or next week. I figured I'd strip the car down and install the HFC, CAI and pulleys while I wait for the CBE to get here. Now I wait in frustration as my butt is ready to dyno. I think you will be pleased with the Stillen and as others had remarked, they're no issues with charging without changing the alternator pulley. A much easier install too.

Never leaving home on Friday the 13th ever again.

Hang in there, man.

Happy I don't forget the alcohol very often LOL. Actually I don't drink that often. I say that I don't meet the American Legion drinking requirement to join LOL I am a VFW qualified prior Marine.

That sux EasyD. I don't drive my car to work or park near anybody else when shopping. I do have a couple paint chips from driving so need to try the paint fix.

pedZ · 01-14-2012, 11:37 AM

Good morning Z family. Happy Saturday! No Z action for me today. Flying home from Vegas later this evening.

Hahah, it's all good man!

Truth be told, I don't drink that often either (or that much at a single time for that matter), but a few sure makes for fun social interactions in a group of friends!

Nice day here in Germany. Cool but sunny. Drove to a place north of Stuttgart looking at furniture. Winter has been easy here.

Happy Saturday!

I motored over to two different beaches to check the surf. Ended up jumping in for a bit and froze my azz off but had fun!

I hung my Mr. Onzedge Vacmaster special in the garage today!
