OK, different subject since I see Speed checking the thread.

@Speed -
Do you remember the part # for the belts on the Unorthodox pulleys?
I've been searching, but I can't find them.

Nevermind - I found them on kwescott old FS thread for his pulleys.
I'm just posting the info here so I can find it next time I do a search.
Unorthodox pulley belts - V-ribbed belt 040292 and Micro-V 050316

I did the seafoam treatment on the car Saturday night.
I found that one of the belts has a rip down the middle. It's about 8" long.
Don't know how long it's been like that, but I don't want to find out how long it will last either.

Seafoam.
2oz - 2 times in each rotor for a total of 8oz.
Boy that stuff makes some crazy smoke. I new it was supposed to be bad, but no video
or explaination could prepare you for what really happens.
I was suprised how easy the whole process was. I figured out a trick to remove the
bottom connector that gives people a problem.
Also, before I started anything, I removed the vacuum caps and then replaced them.
Made them easier to remove when the engine was hot.

So I think I may need to bring some seafoam to SSXI. We can do it in the parking lot and make a smoke show out of it.

You would make a lot of enemies. Especially as bad as that stuff smells.
If anyone around you has their window open, the inside of their car will stink too.

...and they will be present and in force.

So i was thinking last year it was raining so i imagine that the cars and coffee was cancelled and the year before that it was help in our staging parking lot as we were on the curb. Where do you think they will hold the event this year?

I am actually surprised they have not brought out one of those dyno looking smog test trailers to SS yet.

Awesome, which model # did you go with?

No update on the Metra kit. That's OK though. I'm waiting on the double-din carpc case.
The company that makes the double-din carpc case is out of stock, and they are redesigning the case.
Until that's available, the Metra Kit won't do me any good.
I've waited this long, I'll keep waiting so I can do things right.
The Metra Kit w/ the double-din pc case will give me the option to install a setup like the new RX8.

I went with the 7100, I'm pretty sure Emilie is gonna like it.
Now just find me a cheap place to buy the new Zune and we'll be all set.
