A box of titanium bolts showed up today. But I can't post pics here because my laptop broke and needs to be repaired. So if your on my fb page I uploaded a teaser pic. I have 2 more boxes coming and once I have everything I will post many pics.

These things are insainly light. They almost feel fake. A hand full feels like nothing. I love it.

Titanium is awesome. I remember picking up my titanium exhaust for my ZX10R and it felt like there was nothing there. Same with the DC Sports titanium strut tower bars, they feel fake.

Aluminum has no structural integrity. Lighter yes but much weaker then steel or Ti. What I am using it for needs to be strong.

It is a bit crazy for sure. But I think it is worth it.

It sure is weird haha. I can't wait for the good stuff to show up and see how light it is.

I figured, was just making reference to how light aluminum feels compared to titanium. I was shocked first time I made that comparison.

Still waiting on New parts for my laptop. I'll get pics up when I can.

Today I was able to make another custom brake line. I did not like how my last one came out so I re did it. That was done and I also installed the new girodisc front SS brake lines.

Monday I'm supposed to have a few boxes dropped off so I hope for a nice update then.

Enjoy your weekend everyone

ok i got my laptop fixed. so here is some pics. nothing fantastic.

dash is mostly back together. i ordered new OEM heater control cables so once they get here the rest of the dash can go together.




here is my new brake line. nothing special. just simple and smooth.





hey Angryevo8 look what i found thanks bud. cant wait to get it on the bumper.


i saved the best for last so you fools would read the garbage stuff to get to the good stuff. HAHAH. i know it didnt work.

this is a pic of 1 Nut, 1 bolt, and one washer. im not telling how many i got and what i got until it is all here. trust me this has gone out of control and i got some serious **** on the way.

Nice progress. I bet you are really itching to get her on the road.

I have kinda lost interest in my car. I am dreading what has to get done to it next. I am taking on a huge project with her and the wife's new toy. You should be seeing some brakes when I decide to get my a** in gear. I think I may just go fishing instead.

I am waiting on my pictures of titanium!!! Need those details for when I pull my motor. Fishing sounds more fun.
