NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Took care of my y-pipe reroute/high clearance today. CATs are gone now. I bought some cheep LT headers on eBay and it came with the y-pipe but was for 2wd so lengthened it to work. Still running the O2 sensors. Also reinforced a few of the LCA alignment tabs. Ran out of time for the rear shock relocation. Should be done next weekend.

Got distracted a few times by drift car sessions and all around bull shittin. My fab buddy has a 1900lb AE86 with a 400SBC shoved in it. 380ish whp 420+ ft/lb tq. He's also working on a buddies lexus IS300 with a LS1 swapped in it from a corvette.

One pic of exhaust work and said drift car. No pic of is300

 

Anyone see the 4runner rolled over in Wilkinson? Looking for people to aid in the recovery. Don't have any more info.

 

Where is that?

 

I have quite a bit of rear flex (from the prior owner), so you can see the same area. (shitty flip phone movie)

 

Nice, you hit that super fast. From the video i think it's the same spot, it's the only real hard part of that trail beside the super tight fitting areas. When did you run it?

 

I'm trying to get my gf to drive on an easy trail but so far she has declined. I'm totally fine with her driving my truck and she's taken it by herself at times. Sometimes she drives home from the trails if I'm not looking so good on the little breathalyzer I have in the cab. lol Especially since someone remove my tag on the rear license plate and it says 2014 right now!

 

I have to be careful about the girlfriend in the truck. Wifey gets jealous...

 

Right next to Buckley.

 

Oh ya and she asked me not to wear my gun/iwb holster around him. Apparently the creaking sound of a G20 in a Mtac is almost identical to the shitting sound a 5 day old makes, diaper checks are about to drop off drastically

 

2014 summer time, I think that was the trip where the FJ sheered off two valve stems in really bad places to change a tire.

 

Holy shit my exhaust is loud now. Anything over 3000rpm and on the throttle, it's rasps. Need to figure something out to quiet it down now all the cats are gone.

 

How are you going to pass emissions?

 

Fall city doesn't require emissions.

 

Oh I thought it was a county wide thing

 

Unicorporated

 

Anyone here had a shift kit installed in their a750f(4.0 autos)? @Usethe2nd nic is trying to get me to blow my truck up. That ucon ems is still for sale on eBay, minus the exhaust cams........

 

Okay guys so its been a few months without a "beer & BS" meet so I think its time for another. One good option is Scuttlebutt Brewery in Everett, has tons of parking, good food and isn't too far from a lot of us, so what do you think? And how about this Thursday evening?

 

Dirty bastard. I was just in N Everett yesterday. Now I'm not going to make it. I have about a 4 hour drive from where I'm at to Everett and work doesn't let out until 4:30

 

I'm in fo sho

 

Surprised he hasn't tried to convince you to get a supercharger yet
