I'm not to familiar with the shop, but I would assume they would only charge you a storage fee if the car build has been complete and is just sitting there...taking up space for other potential customers.

If the shop has been moving around and they are the ones causing the car to sit there, then no you shouldn't have to pay a storage fee at all.

Not yet man, the tuner needs my ROM ID to be defined first so I have a California guy defining atm and he has the fuel , maps and rev limit done already...

So, next week or the week after I should be tuned.

haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa you will not make it to 1000 whp with that black MR. NEW found record holder. Must be nice but im just not feeling 700whp to much for the streets man and not a managable car. I always stated 500-600 is perfect for everything you need. LOL of coure you only need 23 psi for 615 but also you spent a ton of extra money for that record. So ill be glad to see it in person and take a picture by it since we are 2.4 brothers. Im guessing now the car will not be sold?? Also heard your going to Va beach My evo will be there eventually as Gary808 shop will be repainting the blue bomber once this build is wrapped up completely. NOW YOU NEED TO DO SOME CLEAN UP WORK and make that enginebay look prettier haaaa.

Ya my car will be running no more than 650whp on the street. Unless I have a turbo viper pull up beside me then that ***** is going on kill mode!

No I am not selling the car. Unless someone give me an offer I can't turn down, but I don't see that happening the way the economy is. Besides I really love my car and would miss it so bad I would go buy another evo. Yep I'm moving to VaBeach in 8 days Let me know when your car is up there/were and I'll go check it out. I'll spit shine your bumper for you. My car is going to get an overhaul when I get to VA. I have been focusing most of my time/money in the motor.

yup your like me putting way to much money into the motor but it has to be done and only once. now that its complete me and you can focus back on interior sweding and getting rims for sure boss. your motor is done and you have done what you set out for now time to spend some love on interior and exterior and for real jazz up your enginebay. plenty of bling you can add and still know its a fire breathing monster for sure. yea when my car is doing its thing in va we can hang out but i warn you now im not a beer drinker and i hardly drink at all. Working in a casino for 3 years around constant drunk people acting stupid has alot to do with that just have no desire boss.

That is fine with me! All of us English Racing guys went to celebrate after the dyno and I only had one beer. I don't really drink either. We will get along quite well.

I'm getting Grids for my car once I get to VA. hate on fake rims, but I don't care. I like the fact that they concave more

LOL who is hating in this thread i planned on getting rota dpts in with white with red lip or gold. I think im going to step outside the box and do white with red stripe that should look gangster on the blue bomber i was considering gforces but i mean the dpts just look so much better. I love the style on my Z for sure matching the evo would be nice
