Cole33

No. A marketing company that doesn't have a clearly visible web site? Eh, I'd be skeptical. I see they're apparently expanding in the area. I can't even get a bead on a physical location; I'd be interested to check that out first if possible.

perks11

yea thats exactly what i thought, they are a "privately owned company" and the only info i could dig up is they employ around 100 people and only made $500,000-700,000 last year. Who knows ill go check it out, just tryin to have a back up plan in case somethin goes wrong with the job im suppose to get

Still planning on 2 at my place on Saturday. I haven't gotten my Apline yet, but we can seafoam and shoot **** either way. There might be some snow left, but the roads should be pretty well cleared by then.

Not trying to be that guy but unless the roads are like really clean im not bringing the 8 out, i just washed it and wanna keep it clean for a while.

Cole33

Ohh maybe ill just seafoam the mustang haha. Nobody really lives in jefferson county where I do. Ill just wait and see whats going on that day.

Cole33

Alright. I will send the address and everything out tomorrow prolly. Idc, as long as somehow I get someone to buy me stuff. I hate being the not legal guy, but I gotta get stuff how I can.

I now have a leaky clutch master cylinder; my projects are racking up as well, but my car is my DD. Fortunately it's a very slow leak, and I will probably wait for better weather. I will want to confirm first that the leak is indeed from the cylinder itself as opposed to the bleeder valve or elsewhere. Other than this, my list of projects that could theoretically be tackled Saturday:

Replace motor mounts
Install front sway bar

I've intended to do these during the spring; so if we don't get to my stuff, it's no biggie.

i just need to paint before it rusts lol

My car by spring.
Replace clutch/flywheel. Already have the clutch and I think im just gonna be cheap and not get a lightweight flywheel. Extra money for other things.
Replace shocks and get S-Techs.
Midpipe is last since i dont really have to have it.
Im sure there will be some little things in between all of that, who knows.

Possible new engine when i go have it tested in a few thousand miles. I just dont know how thats going to go over since i have no oil records from before i bought the car.

Cole33

I got my Alpine in the mail today, so all is good on that front. I still haven't gotten ahold of any seafoam, so that needs to be taken care of still.
I sent out a PM with my address and phone number, if I missed anybody, let me know. Otherwise I think we are all good.

Cole33

After unpackaging the Apline.. I don't see any cable to run to the back of the HU. Any insight?

Cole with that unit after just reading about it real fast it looks like it connects to the radio through a fm signal. Ill look into it a little bit more but if that how it is I hope that it either has a very good signal or that you can return it. I bought an FM modulator before i bought what i have now and the one i had even had a wire to connect to the back of the headunit and even then there was still pretty bad static.

Cole33

I didn't think it came with one, but someone on here seemed pretty certain there was a way to do it.. I guess I will just have to try it and see what happens.

perks11

cole pretty sure you have to buy the cable to connect it to the radio. I believe amazon had some for sale for around $30. but yea if you didnt purchase the cord just run it through your radio. thats what i did, and if you find a good radio station it works just as well

Cole33

Ah, alright. I didn't see another cable available for purchase, but I will just try it with the radio and if it doesn't work that well then I will pay up for it.

Cole33

Everybody still good for saturday? The roads are pretty clear now, so by saturday they should be good..

I posted back on page 109 about getting my car tuned up correctly, and I ended up going to Speed and Sound there in Arnold. The guy (I can't remember his name now) did an AMAZING job doing it. I just want to give props to Speed and Sound for doing great work. I'll be doing a couple more things late this winter to my car and I will definitely be going back to them.

Yea i went there a couple times just to talk but didnt get anything done, that guy has a pretty nice 8 but they are kinda expensive on parts at least.

perks11
