[SilverBullet GTS]

Yea meng, crazy weekend fo shizza!

[KrysyGT]

ahh I would love to go but I'll be in Etown. If you guys change the date, I'll see if we can come. Viola, if we are able to come we own an audio shop so I am sure we could help :) I love mod days :) Maybe my TV would be done by then and I could put that in, or get my intake !

[Manny_TXtreme]

ok well at least with this interest I can push it up a bit

[Locust13]

Can I come and put a new tranny in for my mod? lol

[SilverBullet GTS]

My car will be in the shop that whole week, gettin the ultimate mod.(Except turbo) Turbo is 1 year away!

"push it up" .....meaning make a closer day or make the day the weekend after??

[twistedGTS]

I'm down if this is in the NY/LI area
i'm getting a CAI soon so that'd be my mod contribution =)

[Manny_TXtreme]

"push it up" as in make it a later date.

Ya I got a spring/shock and intake to install.



Just to digress - If anyone is looking to buy a underbody neon kit and use that as their install Mod. I have 1 GOLD series StreetGlow kit left over from the Groupbuy. GB price is $140.
If anyone wants it I'll sell it to you for $125. This is the same kit that retails for $299 but who pays retail..? except Viola lol. Its all luv Vi.

BTW - Underbody kit color is Red.

[Viola4ka]

lol shhh..what color is it anyway? just asking..i would rather install it in spring...

[SilverBullet GTS]

Question, where the hell are you gonna do this? How are you gonna bring all those tools to a meet?

[Manny_TXtreme]

For shock/spring install you can rent the compressor from autozone for free. You leave a deposit which I believe you get back once the tools are returned. The rent period is for up to 30 days.

For everything else (Intake install etc..), you only need basic tools.

i remember that its a pain in the fukin as$. lots of wires to tap into...... have to run wires from the headunit location down to the right side of the passenger kick panel. it took me a while but i kept it all neat and clean. if ya need any help on that (diagrams or whatever), let me know.

[IllicaCelica]

Damnit manny i would buy it if it was blue...u **** :)

[Viola4ka]

no not new radio getting the stock one...b/c the stock thing that i have right now has its own mind..so i want kill it with a club!

the reason i ask is cuz out of no where, my unit stop working. I took it to the dealership and they told me that it's not covered cuz of the "guage faces i have on the speedometer" :wtf: ........i have no idea how the hell they came to that conclusion

[twistedGTS]

hey Manny do you know were to get a AEM CAI for cheap? i dont want to pay retail! ;)

[KrysyGT]

Viola, we may be able to trouble shoot it for you, if not just help you install it. Kenny is a master installer so he's good at that stuff and get's it done right :)

I hope I can afford my intake before we do this so I have something to do if I can make it.

If no one want's to hold it at their place, depending on the day you pick for it, I can see if the shop isn't booked..

[TRD StreetRacing]

Good price. But other than that I dont think anything could lure me to pick Injen over AEM..

LOW END power!!!!

You cant compare the roar you get from an AEM to an Injen. Nope..I refuse to pick Injen ova AEM.

[Manny_TXtreme]

i don't understand the logic behind this. when u "speed" or "race", your in the higher part of the revs and it's a KNOWN fact that Injen gives better high end power than AEM

[KrysyGT]

Yea we do it :) Kenny'd have to look at it to see, if it's something easy it will be like $30.

If you would like, call the shop and come in... 516-702-1130. Kenny most likely will answer, tell him you know krysy. if he dosen't leave a mess. that you have a Celica, I told him about this. If you go in let me know I'll see if I can be there or something. ;)

[Viola4ka]

i have the celi for 3 yrs now

[Manny_TXtreme]

Dates!

[PonyGirl]

I'm up for it! I bought Tols an intake for his birthday and he needs it installed...can you guys help us?

What dates were you aiming for? I know I'm free the 5th and the 19th (otherwise I've got horse shows and riding lessons).

[TRD StreetRacing]

can we make the 5th a mod day/ E-town day?? will that be too much??

[KrysyGT]

Are you all spectating? or is anyone showing?

If we are going, we are showing, so we'll be stuck there 9am-5pm bleh, then that great ride back to the Island :)

[ScooterKin]

[Viola4ka]

yea but its like 1 HP more, I'd take the low end and sacrafice 1 hp. Go with the AEM!!!

[TRD StreetRacing]

the same can be said about AEM

doesn't AEM give out only 1-2hp more down low than Injen anyway?? so what's the point?

[Manny_TXtreme]

*clears throat*

And the date you recommend good sir?

[TRD StreetRacing]

huh?? u lost me?? what date??

[Viola4ka]

for a MOD meet! DUMMY lol

[TRD StreetRacing]

Does any1 know jason (Insane driver's) email address?? I want to set this thing up but i can't get through to him. so i just PM'd him

hopefully we can do a mod meet/ E-town meet on the same day?? does any1 have any objections to that?? this way we can do our modds and the head over to E-town ......and who knows, maybe we can all grab something to eat afterwards

[Manny_TXtreme]

I'll be doin Mods all day but you guys are more than welcome to head out to E-town afterwards. Sounds like a plan.

[Viola4ka]

i'd rather do the two things on seperate days
otherwise everyone is going to be bugging about timing so if it on two days its going to be less stressful

[Manny_TXtreme]

Originally posted by Viola4ka

took the thoughts right outta my head on that one.

reason being why I'll be stickin to Mods. I havent been to E-town in almost 1 year but it would be great to go back sometime. However, I also wanna make this meet a success before the weather gets shiaty.

[TRD StreetRacing]

ok.....then it's set for 2 different days then.

but where can we have a mod meet?? i would have loved to have it at my house, but my driveway can barely fit 2 cars with out 1 of the cars being on the side walk.

NE1 know of a good spot?? i know krysy said that she "might" be able to host it, but can some1 follow up on this??

[Manny_TXtreme]

Ok ya my driveway when packed can fit about 7-8 cars and that is not including the 2 car garage. The driveway is shared and I would have to request for full use of it before hand but the problem might be the clearance for anyone whose car is lowered 2" or more with an aftermarket kit and no more than high profile tires on 18" rims.

Other than that..I think ya fine.

[KrysyGT]

Let me know what day and I'll see how booked the shop is. We can fit like 3-4 cars inside and we have a huge parking lot outside..

[PonyGirl]

I like the idea of having a mod meet at a shop ;) Thanks, Krysy.

[PonyGirl]

Any day decided yet? I'm in the mood for a mod meet, since my Cougar friends picked a day for one that I can't make :(

[Manny_TXtreme]

Well if the general consensus is to go with krysy's idea of hosting it at the shop, we're all basically waiting to hear word on the availabilty of a date when this meet can take place.

If you wanna use my place...

I'm down for this weekend or the one after.

[Viola4ka]

well this weekend is out of the question pretty much i think

[KrysyGT]

I'll be at the shop tonight.. I'll check the calendar and post as soon as I get home. I am pretty sure we can do this the 18th from what I remember if that is okay with all of you!

[KrysyGT]

Okay here's the deal.

The shop is ours on Saturday the 18th if that is a good date. We will be there to open around 10am and can stay as long as you like.
We can order like pizza or something for lunch.

We are located in Deer Park just off of Bayshore Ave, near Deer Park Ave. I will post specific directions later on. Like I said our shop has room for 2-4 cars inside depending on the job, and we have a huge parking lot out front. We also have a room with a TV and playstation and whatnot set up.

We have tons of tools, but I suggest you still bring your own just in case we don't have something on hand, or if something that you need is being used.

ALSO- to add to the fun of mod day, we are opening accounts with Import Fan and Extreme Dimensions.. We are placing our opening buys within the next week, so we are offering 15% off the lowest prices on their sites. If you would like to order something we can possibly have the parts in by the mod day for you to work on!!!

The specifics are as follows:
15% the LOWEST PRICE LISTED off all GTP parts and C Wings parts at Import Fan.
www.importfan.com

15% off all parts at Extreme Dimenstions.
www.extremedimensions.com

If you want to order email me the part #'s and descriptions:
Krysy@optonline.net

or you can call the shop at (516) 702-1130. Speak to Kenny and tell him you are from newcelica.org and know Krysy. :)

I hope this works out :)

[TRD StreetRacing]

sounds like a good plan krysy

[Viola4ka]

hey krysy...random question...can they do my wheel allighnment that day????

[speedeeGTS]

Krysy, just outta curiousity, how far/long from that meet we had in CT is your shop? im supposed to be entering my car in a NOPI show on Thursday the 16th in NYC (not exactly sure where but my Eclipse and RSX buds already entered and want me to). They are staying at a hotel that night and then heading home Friday afternoon. And i would go to your shop but I dont really want to pay for a hotel room 2 nights in a row. So i might drive home that Thursday night after the show then MAYBE drive down to your place and meet all you guys if its not too far. Ya get me? Let me know.

[KrysyGT]

hey. i know that you don't know us that well, but rather than do all that driving you are more than welcome to stay at our place if you'd like!!!

It's not a bad drive at all, we did the ferry route... it was like a half hour from the ferry in CT, an hour ferry, and then our shop is a half hour from the ferry in NY. SO I am guessing it would be a 2-3 hr drive without taking the ferry.

[TRD StreetRacing]

damn krysy....that's above and beyond of being a good host :thumbup:

[KrysyGT]

:) We are used to it, usually when we would host mod meets for my old club everyone would just crash at our place anyway becasuse the mod meet turned more into a "let's get drunk and say we worked on our cars." lol

Viola- Unf. we aren't equipped to do alignments at the shop :( We mostly only do stereo, customization, performance, and tuning, repairs when some one breaks something :thumbup:

[PonyGirl]

Oh, so I'm looking to purchase a new audio system soon...you guys can give me some good advice and possibly do the installation? That would be fantastic :)

As for the 18th, I can most likely be out there early ::yawn::

[Manny_TXtreme]

Sounds great. Sooooo it looks like we're shootin for the 18th. I'm good to go!

Krysy .... do you guys by any chance have compressors or tools to install shocks/springs?

EDIT: I guess I can install my AEM and the underbody neon kit at the MOD meet.

[Manny_TXtreme]

say hmmmm PonyGrl...what goes with the ichie shiftknob?

[PonyGirl]

Believe it or not. After posting the above message..I remembered that the reason I was lookin for one is because the place I had ordered it from did not have black in stock. I called them and switched by order to (2) blue.

So I shall get it next week. Thanks anyways beb.

[PonyGirl]

Not a problem ;)

Originally posted by Viola4ka

Yup. You'll get it in time alright. That would make for a nice fun day of havin about 3 cars getting intakes installed. Things should run relatively fast.

[twanmoney]

i have plans in the city for sat the 18th in the evening
maybe ill stop by and lend a hand if i have some time in the morning/afternoon
i have performed engine swaps before ya know /wink

[KrysyGT]

I think I might put in my TV.. I don't have money for anything new really and Kenny and I have been procrastinating doing that. Either that or I think i can afford the carbon fiber overlay for the gauges.. or do i want aluminum? Augh! :)

[Manny_TXtreme]

Krysy .... do you guys by any chance have compressors or tools to install shocks/springs?

[KrysyGT]

I am sorry, I answered that in my head but never made it onto the screen :)

We do not have spring compressors, but we do have the capability to do the springs w/o them.

[Manny_TXtreme]

Does that include shock replacement? I'm not too sure what is needed for that install.

[TRD StreetRacing]

well u can get a spring compressor from an auto store for about $20 or less

[evil eye]

i probally wont have my car back yet to get in on this! :( i have so much crap to install too. wanna do my CATZ HID's or underbody neons next.

[KrysyGT]

Huh? :)
The shocks have to come out when you do the springs anyway, so if you want replace them that is the time to do it since they are out anyway...
