1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I'm glad I am selling the house and keeping the van. I guess in 5 years we will see what the market does to see if I was right or wrong. I just don't see it jumping another $200k, so I think I'm cashing out at a good time, would've been better 6mo ago but still favorable no doubt.

And good point. I always wonder if those folks know that they don't have to live there, but it is probably true that they don't know that better places exist.

That was my thought.

 

God dammit @Speedytech7

I followed a link to 'Cruisers and Company' where they're offering a similar kit to Wit's End (logged into mud, haven't visited in months)

Within the first few posts members are bashing each other already over who contributed more (amongst themselves as members) lol

Although this one takes the cake -

"Turbo kits in stock ready to ship? No claims of shipping 33 million orders per week, no postal strikes, no medical disasters, no lawyers, no forced bankruptcy or suppliers that have to sell the products the shop never paid them for to get their money?

This sounds like a very boring turbo kit to me. No entertainment. The parts probably fit and work as good as they look too.

BORING"

 

The only part of their turbo kit that I like is the j-pipe it's really well made. The rest is absolutely nothing special and the total cost of $6,000 to run untuned at like 5 PSI is dumb to me. Also come on $6,000 and you only get a China Turbo

 

I've only eve driven thru spokane, sounds like a lot of the same mid city positives, plus 6 hours of highway driving gets you to some really cool places where by me its 6 hours from where you started.

Whether I jump for a new Job or not, at least more trips out there may be required... we've skied at Stevens Pass a few times.

 

Yeah the dyno (even if it's only 5-6psi non-intercooled) seemed unimpressive

That's expected out of a tractor motor huh?

I'm unfamiliar with the 1FZ as far as any tuning, my tuning is to higher spinning 4 cylinders

 

I mean it's like any other Toyota motor if you use the stock computer it's not going to be happy with boost. That's why that in Dyno is so lackluster. The one FZ can actually be a real screamer there's a guy on there right now that's got one na that runs low 13s with a heavy ass cruiser body. That's just with tuning and cams. Imagine that same engine now with a turbo that isn't wasting its potential by only pushing 5 PSI and a proper tune

 

so many C6-7-8 around, local C&C will be nothing but vettes

 

Makes sense

And in a state as affordable as KY, yeah I'm sure they have more than one Vette

 

I'm sure Nick felt a disturbance by now with all this 80 series talk

 

@eon_blue

It's been clear for the past hour or two, but this morning it was raining like crazy so I took Stephanie to work

She's driven in worse, but I offered

 

it's torrential out here, has been since I was awake at 330am because River decided it was time to be awake for the day. He finally went back down around 530 but I couldn't fall back asleep, so fucking tired

and got a cold on top of it, gonna be an awesome weekend

 

Sorry dude all that sounds mighty unfun

 

Damn

It definitely rained all night last night (only confirmed cause I pulled up footage) but it stopped awhile ago

Who knows if we'll get more or if it's just gonna be overcast; I do enjoy the cooler weather for sure though

Is he sleeping all night? Theo insists on being awake all day, though he'll take a nap or two around morning and noon. I think it's a good trade-off for sleeping all night without waking up at all for anything

 

Meant to ask too, seems Sofia really loves being close to the little guy

She still throwing her fits? Having a baby in the house is only gonna make her feel like she's getting less attention so I wonder how she's adjusting

Could put her to work like Kayden; I hear he's welding up pipe right now laying that cover pass on a 20"er right @Sperrunner

 

Just saw that the USS Gravely was targeted and the incoming missile was knocked down by the CWIS. Fucking wild.

 

WWIII otw

 

Can't have world war III with who shot the missiles. They've been warned to not fuck around and they would find out and just as quickly be wiped off the face of this Earth

 

fucking around with the US military's boats is a great way to make that happen, if history has proven anything lol.

 

I just mean they're not really a huge force to be concerned with. They decided to fuck around with trade routes, but the ship they're fucking with could pretty much end that conflict with a single shot

 

Yeah...I mean most of them live in caves and mud huts
