Hey take care there Luke! have fun in Idaho. go do some skiing for me.

 

drive safe luke. good luck on your project car.

see you next summer up north park.

 

hey, just in case anyone is interested i have two PDA's for sale.

Both are for verizon.

one is a blackberry 7250. comes with a wall charger, extended battery, holster, sync cable, and normal battery.

the other is a Treo 700w. comes with wall charger, car charger, case, and sync cable.

only thing about the treo is that i have been having trouble hot syncing it to my computer. i am not sure if it is the computer's fault, of the phones.

but if anyone wants either of them, just PM me.

 

Well, 2 more pics...the LCD is in. I've never had an iPod until now, but I don't think I can ever go back to CD changers - very cool! I'm also very surprised how good the stock speakers sound with an OK head unit - as long as they don't blow, they are more than enough for me.

Tomorrow night I need to realign where the radio sits and put the Orbital bezel on. I also need to re-run the control box and attachment wires behind the glove box and clean things up. So far, so good

 

hmm i might have to get me one of those thats very sexy man

 

Thanks

 

so how about this for some craziness. emage noticed my cat was breaking up when installing my clutch, so i need to replace it before it damages something.

well i was thinking of trading my car in for a ix mr. but before i do that they are going to want my stock cat fixed.

i called biondi today to get a price on the stocker and they said $781.67

my jaw almost hit the floor. are stock cats usually that exspensive?

if it isn't covered under warranty i am just gonna say forget the ix and get myself a new exhaust system all together. if i am gonna spend near 800 bucks on something for my exhaust system, there is no reason it should be stock. haha.

 

Any emissions part is covered under warrenty for 80,000 miles. It's the law.

However, if I were going to trade in your car I'd probably get a stocker off of one of us or evom for cheap and swap it. They go for like 80 dollars shipped. Probably less.

 

i may do that man. i am on ym way to south park now to talk to them about it.

i know i said i would never buy a car off them, but they have the mr i want and they take the vip program, so i figured not having to hassle over price would make them unable to dick me around, but so far with the exception of one of their sales staff, they have all seemed rather uninterested in selling me a car.

i am still not totally commited to the ix though. i have mixed feelings about getting rid of my baby.

but i should know in a couple hours what's up.

either way i am gonna get a faster evo out of this. wether it is from my upgrading to a ix, or buying new parts for the viii.

it's a win win situation.

 

Justin,

I got a stock cat that i do not plan on using, and i used it for about 13k. Shoot me an IM and a price and it can be all yours!

Steve

 

hey thanks steve.


well i just got back from south park a little bit ago. they offered me a bit less for my trade than i would have liked so i am gonna hang out tonight and do some figuring on money and whatnot because the payments are close to, but not quite close enough to what i wanted.

they also talked to their service manager, and he said that the cat didn't look bad enough need replacement immediately, and if it did replaced it will be warranty. so that is good news either way.

i think tommorow i am going to take a ride out to baierl and see if they have an GG ix mr's, and if they are willing to offer me more for my trade.

 

thanks for all the help and suggestions guys.

 

shopping for cars huh? I'll admit your car seems to like trouble.

 

Mondo,

If you do decide to sell keep me in mind for that nifrty black gauge cluster if you're selling.

Bariel is always dead for sales when I go in for service so be sure to beat the hell out of them on the price. I did my negociations with them by e-mail and that worked well. Just send them the southcoast price, hold the line on the trade and it'll be a IX MR FTW.

They've had a white MR sitting there damn near forever. My car sat there for 4 months before I bought it. Plus al lthe EVO's are 06's. That's lasy years model! Who wants that!

 

yeah jer, i am like schleprock, trouble just seems to follow me where ever i go haha.

regardless, i will be in the north hills tommorow if you wanna grab some beers. i will hit you up when i am done at baierl.

evol, what black gauge cluster?

i am hoping baierl has or is willing to order a GG MR for me. i am not really interested in white or red at this point. things may change when i get a look at what they have on the lot though. who knows.
