:lol:

So yeah I am a vendor now, starting out a budding business. I carry all the usual stuff, the big names, cobb, txs, tein, heck you name it, I likely carry it.
In any case, if you want to support a local guy at the absolute ground level of the vendor game, I am here.

about time, find me stuff for the legacy :p

Awesome! More local vendors is always a good thing!
BTW, is your website currently down?

should have the S/N VendorNow....it's appropriate :D

My website is currently not built. I dont have the skillz (y0) to build it myself in anything resembling a professional way, and I havent made enough money yet to pay someone to do it.

If offer to trade someone some parts to do it, but I still have to PAY for those parts.

TJ, what do you want? Name it, Ill see what I can do. I carry a TON of brands, and I have like 6 sources, so there isnt much I cant get.
Being that I am not direct, I cant always beat the big guys prices, but sometimes I can, if only by a little. I can almost always match them at least.

The hardest part is when you are starting out, things go SO slow because people dont like to buy from a new not established vendor. And Ebay wont let me post buy it now auctions till I have 10 feedback, which essentially makes it impossible to sell things on ebay for now. I bought a V1 and am selling the clock from my WRX (people actually buy them, up to 50 bucks!!!)
so that will help.

The up side is most of the vendors I spoke to said to expect to only sell like 1 thing a week in the beginning, I have 3 sales under my belt with at least 2 pending right now, and its only been a week and a half that I have been doing this officially. (about that anyway). So things look good. It just stinks that it will take probably 6 months till I am making anything like a liveable wage from this.

Sweet. How much for an SPT heat shield and how local are you from Houston?

Im in Austin, and SPT stuff is going to be the same as the dealer unfortunately, because the only way to get it, is from the dealer. I get it a bit cheaper, but not anywhere near as cheap as the dealers do. If you want the best deal you can get on SPT stuff, you are best off hitting up Subie Gal or one of the dealership vendors here.

Sorry man, wish I could be of more help there.

so do you have an actual store or is it gonna be all online. I hope you have a store cuz I'd like to see some of things i wanna buy before i buy (like suspension stuff)

All online for the time being. I am going to move towards that later, but that will probably take like a year.

Im looking for a knocklink and a K&N intake (pn 57-0319) :) pm mah if you got it ;)

I need a price on a relatively cheap DP, and well if you can get it, an AEM Wideband (UEGO) Preferably Black Face.

PM me a price with shipping. Also can you get any gauge mounting accessories as I am looking for a clock mount gauge pod that is not the typical TSUNAMI WAVE format but instead the simple more stock looking format.

Eitehr way just PM what you can get. :)

What kind of price can you get on the TXS MAP sensor?

looks like business is booming already

Dave, did you find out about the Amsoil, or are you still sleeping off the hangover?

good luck with the business dave i wish u the best.

yo....need a wideband kit. at bare minimum, a gauge(as i have the LC1 on loan from another suby owner). whatcha got?

No on the AMsoil :(
No on the hangover (strangely enough)

Business isnt booming, but its picking up slightly. Most vendors told me to expect 1 sale a week for like the first 2 months. I am at like 6 sales in 2 weeks, so thats a good sign I think.

Mighty, I deal with AEM, TXS and I cant think of who else for a wideband.
You just missed out on buying my LC-1/XD-16 setup by about a week though :lol:

BTW, PM me guys!

I didnt see the replies to this thread.
ANyone that asked for prices, I will get them to you by tomorrow afternoon. Or at least send you a PM to establish a dialog.


I made the slightly scary move of quitting my job today (last day is monday). Although it was a GARBAGE pay part time job, it was enough to make car payments. SO its a scary move, but one that I had to make in order to give my customers (and potential customers) the service level I want to give (killer)

Good luck with everything. I might nead some stuff in the near future. Ill let you know ;)

If you guys need a webpage or graphic design let me know

To anyone who may be interested in parts for their Subie, give Dave a holler. His response time is AMAZING. Sometimes he'll PM me back literally within 5 minutes. He has something that not everyone has, and that's customer service.



Mika

Thanks :)
Now that this is my full time job, my response times should be pretty consistant. I had a couple times in the beginning where it was slow as I was at my day job. But no more :) This is my day job now :)

Dave is the man

If anyone's interested in some Subie parts, at the very least you owe it to yourself to PM Dave. He will seriously save you some $$$.



Mika

BTW your stuff shipped Friday morning :)

Mika got a 20g!?

are you carrying rallyarmor flaps ?

Mika got a 20g!?

Nah, I didn't. It's a running joke with SMUwrx34.

Keeping it on topic, I am looking forward to some serious fun with the UTEC and tuna:).



Mika

are you carrying rallyarmor flaps ?


I dont unfortunately.

I am looking into picking up a couple other sources though, as I dont have everything I want. Like Samco, DBA and some of the more small company things like rallyarmor and such.

I might be looking into Group-N engine and tranny mounts sometime in the future :)

Hey man. Can you PM me prices for any and all coilover setups picked up, you can get for an 05 STi? Thanks!

Hey man. Can you PM me prices for any and all coilover setups picked up, you can get for an 05 STi? Thanks!


:lol:

I'll work on it. I only have a few of the prices handy in front of me, I know there are like 5 different brands out there that I can get.

What level of coilover are you looking for? I mean TEIN alone makes like 5 different coilovers for that car.

What kind of short shifters can you get?

Cobb, Perrin, kartboy. I think a couple others, I cant think of any off the top of my head but at this point I am fairly sleep deprived. Insomnia ftl.

Hawk Dealer?

check your PM's :p

I dont unfortunately.

You can get DBA if you set-up directly with them or get a tirerack wholesale account. Samco you can get with most vendors like Rally Sport Direct, but watchout for them if you go direct. They have a bad habit of sending the wrong parts.

I found a Samco source finally :banana:, they also do DBA.
Good call on the tire rack acct, those are easy to set up (I did it before for an old job) Even if I only ever use it for cheaper tires for myself :lol:

You might make more sales if you respond to PM's...

I was 99.9% sure that PM was meant for Streetrays, sorry man. I would have responded had I known you actually meant it for me. The comment about being right around the corner from them is what made me think it was for them and not me.

What did you need? Ill make you a killer deal on some 27pot brakes :D ;)

Yeah I sent it to both... They never replied either. Just need a clutch and flywheel for the time being. Mine is a bit toasty after the last spokes event.

Ok cool.

Shoot me the info on your car and I will get that for you.

Wait, its just an 04 IS300 right? No special things or anything?

UTEC installed. Glad I got it installed. Dave was 100% cool with me. :)




Mika

no kidding. it's a shame because my car has a lot of potential. just ask my M3.

I shot you a PM back saying friday wasnt good, but that next week would work, did you not get it?:confused: Guess not, well in that case, Friday wasnt good (obviously) and next week is good. Monday I am doing stainless lines on my car so for about 2 hours I will be busy, but otherwise whenever.

no PM received to date. you must have sent it to another Greg. anyhow, I took the car to another shop.

good luck with your business venture. I hope everything works out for you.

Ok sorry man :( . I know I sent it, I hit reply to your last PM that I got on thursday. *shrug* I have had 3 replies in the last 2 weeks just not show up, including a PM I sent to my other acct with a link that I wanted to have in that inbox.
I think I bumped the back button on my mouse when I went to click send or something. I need to disable that damnable button :mad:

How much for some all weather floormats for an '08 LGT? I'm blue collar and get axle grease/coolant/oil/hydraulic oil on my shoes, and would like to keep my floormats clean if possible.



Mika

Need APS 65mm CAI like yesterday. Where are you located?? would like to do local pick up if you are near houston. thanks

david

I was actually JUST working on the response to your PM from yesterday and my comp just randomly rebooted :mad:
So Ill just respond here :)


Basically I dont keep those on hand, I can have it in your hands by mid next week though.

Im in Austin BTW.


Sorry man, wish I had one in my hands for you :(

If you want I can still get you a price if you can live without it till then.

let's do that. how do you do payment for that??

By any chance can I get a quote for an Exedy Stage1 clutch kit (15802) and an ACT Streetlite flywheel (600175)? I'd like to know the cost for it to be shipped to 77036. Thanks in advance.

Ill get those prices and get back to you like this afternoon or so :) I know I can get both though :)

Did you ever get that quote for me? Haven't received a PM, but I'm not sure if it's the forum's PM system having problems or whatever could be an issue. Thanks again.

I have to wait till Monday to get ahold of my Exedy distro :)

I've been switching suppliers on some stuff in the past couple weeks and I dont have pricing from some yet. Ill call them and get you that price monday. I JUST hooked up with a WAY better Exedy source on Friday and I wont be fully up with them till Monday, at which point I can get you the pricing.

You're not responding to my PM, so... Where's the flywheel that you said should have been here late last week or early this week? No tracking number?

You're not responding to my PM, so... Where's the flywheel that you said should have been here late last week or early this week? No tracking number?


I did respond, I told you Fidanza was drop shipping it to me, and that it was supposed to happen thursday. :confused: I 99% chance wont ever get a tracking number, only confirmation that it actually shipped. Which sucks but its the best any of the 5 different suppliers I went through can do. NO ONE had it in stock, I tried. I even looked for it retail just to buy it and GIVE it to you at zero profit (not like I am making any real profit on it anyway, I try to give locals as sweet of a deal as I can) and I couldnt find one short of Ebay.

Dude you dont even want to know what I have been going through to try to get this flywheel and clutch. I FINALLY got a solid answer today (like an hour ago actually) and the deal is that ACT is out of stock on that clutch, I tried 5 different people, and even working with Lee at worldone, he tried a bunch of people, and no one has this clutch. And ACT wont even be building one for 2-3 more weeks (I dont remember which he said).


I have no idea why an 04 IS300 is so damned hard to find parts for:huh: Its crazy, NO ONE has a clutch or flywheel for this thing. I want to help you but honestly had I known what a huge pain it was going to be to even FIND the stuff, I would have told you up front that it was going to take forever.




*edit*
Wait are you talking about the PM from about 5pm yesterday? yeah I didnt respond to that one yet, I was actually sitting down to knock out that response here when I came into this thread to check for any new messages. I only got the final word on that clutch about 2 1/2 hours ago, I spent about 4 hours today trying to locate one with no luck :(

I appreciate that^, and I guess I'll look for a different clutch. But where is the flywheel..? ;)

I appreciate that^, and I guess I'll look for a different clutch. But where is the flywheel..? ;)


The flywheel will be in the paper when it lands on my head and kills me :lol:

I will make a couple calls on another clutch and see what I can come up with. I had thought about that, but you are a pretty "I know exactly what part and version of that part that I want" kind of guy, so I figured you had some pretty solid reasons why you wanted that specific clutch, so I concentrated my efforts on that one. I honestly figured that you would rather wait a while longer if it meant getting the exact one. I also didnt make any suggestions because I know ACT is good, and I know Exedy is good but I know little about what is good on an IS300.

So the flywheel is still at Fidanza:rolleyes: (why do they only ship on thursdays????? Can anyone tell me that??:lol: ) And will be shipping tomorrow (thursday), its coming directly to me, and I am 99.9999% sure I wont have anything more than solid confirmation that it has shipped. I dont see it taking longer than mid/end of next week even if they ship it on the back of a donkey. I will be making calls on that tomorrow, and I will see what else I have access to for a clutch.

Let me know if you need a website, I can help.

www.futuregrade.com

Nice meeting a few of you yesterday. Glad to put some faces to the names.


Sleep, that lgt is sweet. You get any tuning done last night? How does it run now???

Chris, your FW is in my hands right now (well, not right now, hard to type with a FW in your hands :lol:

Hey are you going to pm me back with the "list"

dave pm me a price or call me for a 44mm tial wastegate with ever spring you think i need.

Hey are you going to pm me back with the "list"


Im getting it together. Its a big list. (no seriously, anyone who hasnt seen it, it's a $14k list) and I am trying to pick and choose what will be the best bang for your buck. We can easily chop a few grand off that list I think. I have to make some calls on some of the parts though.


And with SEMA coming up its getting hectic around here.

Dont worry man, I got you covered:D

dave pm me a price or call me for a 44mm tial wastegate with ever spring you think i need.


Monday :) I have to call on TIAL prices and no one will be there till Monday.

No hurry on this. Just thinking ahead to Christmas. What would this run me if I got it from you?

RCE Springs (Yellow)
Front Group-N Strut Top Mounts
Rear Group-N Strut Top Mounts
Whiteline 27mm Adjustable Front Sway Bar
Whiteline 24mm Adjustable Rear Sway Bar
Kartboy Rear Endlinks

Shawn

i hear your the man for port and polish tgv, or yeah, i wanna get my tgv ported. can you send me a price quote

Hi guys, i just got back from SEMA, I will get you the info tomorrow :)

lackofhp, I can tell you up front that I dont carry any Subaru factory parts or RCE parts at this time, but I can definately do up the whiteline bars and endlinks. :D

Do you have Kartboy Exhaust Hangers (normal not long) in stock?
Pm me.
Thanks!

PM coming your way (everyone) :)

Jman,
Honestly I dont have a good kartboy source right now, so my prices cant really be competative. I have (in my personal purchases) always had great luck ordering direct from kartboy though. I am desperately seeking one, for Samco as well. But thusfar my only sources for either dont give me good enough wholesale pricing that I cant even sell for retail on kartboy stuff (litterally, if retail is 35 bucks, I pay 34.95).

I have pretty much everything, but those 2, which unfortunately are 2 of the biggest things I want to sell, I just cant seem to get a good supplier :( Which stinks because that means even I cant get a good deal for them for myself :mad:, let alone the customers I am letting down.

it just bums me out. But I am working on it. If I had about 10 grand for buy-ins I could get good deals direct from them. I just am not there yet financially.

Do you carry group n engine+tranny mounts ? If so price shipped to 76053 ?

I will be doing some coilover shopping in the next few months. can you give me a list of the sets you can offer for a 2000 2.5RS?

Will do. PM coming your way

Well, since I'm going to be living in SA come next August, supporting a somewhat local dude would be a good thing.

I'm trying to get a 27mm Whiteline front Sway bar w/solid end links for an 04 STI. PM me a price on that if you can. You can ship it to my brother in DFW. I will be flying to DFW in Dec to visit my brother and other personal stuff, and I'll bring it back to Germany on the plane with me.

I can definately get those :)

I miss K town, I went there when I was in the reserves. There and B.K.

I am headed out the door. Ill get those prices to you later this afternoon/evening.

can you get me a set of tein flex?

thanks!

Nice! When were you last here? I've lived here since late 2002. I used to have a WRB Bug-eye then, with a stg4 TXS. How could you miss this place? I figured Austin was the party capital of TX... ain't it?

Let me know about that sway bar :D

Are you carrying any SS brake lines ?:)

can you get me a set of tein flex?

thanks!

Yup, ill shoot you a price in a sec. Getting like 5 quotes together right this min, you are one of them :)

Let me know about that sway bar :D

Austin is pretty happening. I love having a couple beers and listening to live music, so 6th street is a really good time for me provided that I avoid the more "style guy" kinds of bars.
I was there in early 02. In December. Xmas festivals in small walled cities FTW. Rotenburg was awesome. I learned to Snowboard in the Swiss alps (we got lost on the way there and ended up in France :lol: ) Let me tell you, you go from no idea what you are doing, to pretty good in one day there. One run will have every single condition of snow you will ever ski/ride in :D I just loved Germany. I loved that like every sport compact has a jaeger banner on the windsheild :lol:

Sway bar price coming in a min.

Are you carrying any SS brake lines ?:)

I carry techna-fit and goodridge. Both are great. Ill shoot you some prices with the rest of these quotes :)

OK all PMs responded to now :)

Seibon RB style wing for GC pm me price with shipping to 77063 thanks in advance

Im on it :)
It will likely be Friday till I can get a solid answer on it though since that is a drop ship item.
But you will know as soon as I do :D

thats cool...i hope you can beat the other prices ive been getting

Just tried to call, they are closed till Monday :mad:

Sooo.. Monday then :lol:

PM me what other prices you have been getting I will see what I can do.

Bump for you again, and which brand of turbos do you sell? FP, MHI, IHI SBR ect. Lemme know. In the market for a big 16g and some injectors.

TIA,
Ben

Deadbolt FTW. They are pretty much all MHIs.
I carry Deatschwerks injectors and PEs.

I just sold out of fuel pumps but am ordering about 30 more on Monday :banana: so hopefully by the end of the week I will have them back in stock. If anyone needs one faster than that I can have one drop shipped though. I will lose my pants on it, but Ill do it to get it there faster if I have to :P

Dave, please check your PM.

Got it :)

Ill call meld today to get it over there and pick up your tank :)

I have a gasket or two for him for your car as well. Dont worry about paying for them or anything, they are just taking up space for me so you may as well put them to good use.

You rock, that's what I like to hear. Thanks Dave. :banana:

I found one of them, I know I have at least one other. I will dig it out tomorrow and give it/them to him.

Hey Dave,

I just found out that my Noltec camber/caster plates are about fail catastrophically. :mad:

What do you have/sugest as replacements? I will eventually have to move up to coilovers. Can I get something now that will work with coilovers later? (I have not settled on a coilovers setup.)

Also, can you get Cusco solid engine and tranny mounts?


chud

Well, I can get you another set of Noltecs I know that much, I think whiteline makes a set and my whiteline prices are pretty killer so let me make a call or two and see what I can find out.:)
As for what will or wont work with coilovers, Short of build it yourself coilovers like Koni inserts/Ground control sleeves (which is an AWESOME setup BTW, better than a lot of the aftermarket "real" coilovers) or something like Tein Basics or SS's, then I really dont know.

If you want to go to a TEIN basic or SS, then you can use any top that works with stock struts I think (99% sure), as those are meant to use the stock tops.

Do you have Kartboy Exhaust Hangers (normal not long) in stock?
Pm me.
Thanks!


FYI everyone I NOW carry kartboy and samco!!

I am betting jman has already found them elsewhere at this point, but I will shoot him a PM anyway.

Dave, can you give me a price on the Noltecs or the Whitline plates. I think I just want to replace the ones I have so I can sell them as a set when I get rid of the S202 suspension.

Then I can worry about camber plates for the new suspension later. Whatever that will be.....:rolleyes:

Can you has Cusco for me too?

I need the camber plates now (so I can drive home for Christmas!), but would like to know about the engine mounts for later. Maybe Santa will drop me some coin at the end of the month. :D


Thanks,


teh chud

you can has cusco.

I will check on the plates and let you know :)

Dave, I need a Megan catless d/p and an APS (or SPT) intake w/ shield.

Gimme gimme.

Delivered before Christmas!

I can get the DP easy, the APS intake will be tough, my main supplier is out of stock on them, and they come from Austrailia, so its going to be a good month easily till they are back in stock.

HOWEVER I do deal with a couple other suppliers, so let me see what I can dig up.



Chud I am working on finding the best way to go for top plates, I have some fitment questions on the one set that I am trying to find an answer for before I start tossing numbers at you.

Ok done that. Can u get that downpipe w gaskets and bolts like here:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Megan-Downpipe-Subaru-Impreza-WRX-STi-02-03-04-05-06-07_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33631QQihZ011QQitemZ 320188308035QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWD1V

???

You dont want the megan gaskets. I just had to go to Sideways to replace Daves gaskets because the megan gaskets lasted all of ONE week.

Use OEM gaskets. In fact, for the downpipe, just re-use the stock ones. I have re-used the turbo to downpipe gasket like 10+times over on multiple cars and have yet to see one leak.


Ill call you tomorrow about the downpipe :)

Dave, did you find that pricing for me yet?

I sent it a few days ago :confused:

I will resend it as soon as I get home. Im at starbucks killing time before heading to get my checkup from the oral surgeon (for my wisdom tooth I had removed)

Bump for teh chud??? :confused:

I Just got off the phone with about the 4th person I have asked.

Basically what I have that I KNOW I can get, are the Cusco top plates. Says they work with OEM shafts and non progressive springs. I havent been able to confirm 100% that they work with OEM springs. I have put it out there to a bunch of people and no one has been able to tell me for sure. I hate to sell them to you and have them not work, BUT, I havent seen any evidence that they dont work with OEM springs, as I would think it would say somewhere if they didnt, and I am pretty sure I have seen people run them with the OEM springs.


Whiteline appears to only make a front camber plate, but its a good bit more money.

In any case they are in stock. Ill shoot you a PM with the pricing.

I am looking for a catted downpipe, what do you carry and how much?

I have a bunch of options that way and prices vary by a large margin depending which way you go. Let me put a small list together and shoot you some options :)

Im looking for a CBE to bolt onto my TXS adaptor pipe. I would like 3in piping and something quiet. It also has to look stock. Whatcha got?

Hmm. Lots. Let me dig around and look at the tips (that will be the important part in looking stock)

I know Bosal makes some quiet catbacks that look stockish.

You know the SPT catback? If so, how do you like it? I ask because Bosal makes it. And they make the exact same catback, without the SPT logo on it, for way less than the SPT catback.

Bump for teh chud??? :confused:


You can has camber plates?

They are sitting here next to me. I cant find teh yuor number...

Can you pm price on a turbo inlet pipe? Looking at a Perrin model. I still have stock turbo and I don't want the hard pipe type. Thanks!

Good call on not wanting the hard pipe. Its an aweful design, a BIG kink in the pipe for the air to slam into directly in front of the compressor. It couldnt be at a worse place. I do my best to talk my customers out of them even thought I do sell them.
I am out right now, I will get you that price :)

Hey Dave - It's Joe from Gabe's tuning day - I rode in the back of your "wagon o' doom" and wanted your ray's lugs....

Anyway, do you still have any of the fuel pumps that are easy to install ? I'm going to be in Austin right after xmas and would like to pick one up...

do-luck....
lets talk about it

PMed you.

You know the SPT catback? If so, how do you like it? I ask because Bosal makes it. And they make the exact same catback, without the SPT logo on it, for way less than the SPT catback.

im looking for some gold 18 bbs rims what do you have?

im lookin for an alky kit what do you have :D, call me bro.

Called.
Talked to.

Made fun of :p:D

Dave, Vivid Racing has me pissed. Shoulda gone through you. If the APS CAI does not ship today I am canceling my order. Can you get your hands on an APS 65mm? If not XXTuning may be able to get me one (I know guys there).

I also need a Walboro.

Other intake options are the K&N typhoon or the SPT w/ shield, but I really want the APS.

Gabe

Oh and get ready in the next two weeks or so (prolly a month) for a huge group buy on DW 750's or possibly 650's. There will be probably at least 10-15 people who need those and a walboro just to start off with.

Gabe

I have 9 walbro pumps in stock, and I can have as many more as I need within 5-6 days time if I know ahead of time, so let me know.


I THINK I can get my hands on an APS 65mm. The problem is that most people are out of stock on them and they will take a long time getting here on a boat then sitting in customs... Want me to call around?

Honestly, I saw no real solid evidence in IAT or IAM or maf voltage that there was any performance difference between the SPT (which would be identical to the K&N performance wise) and my APS 65mm.


Oh and welcome to why Vivid isnt a nasioc vendor anymore :lol:


Buy my stuff lol, I am planning out a motor build :devil: Nothing huge, pistons/rods and maybe valve springs/retainers. I figure do it now while the block is known solid ya know?
I just dont want to have to worry about it anymore, and I LOVE the way a forged internals motor just revs and revs and revs. With the light internals, way balanced rods and valve springs/retainers I can spin 8k no problem (not that I am planning to do that for now, but I could if I wanted to, and a 7500rpm redline at SAR would really be nice especially once I do my 18" tires, which will be a touch smaller diameter, the 300RPM redline increase will put shift points back where they are now (approx) and if I spin it to 8k... That alone is an ET decrease.

My 750 DW are on the way as well :devil:

Bring me a pump when we meet up next. I just ordered the CAI from XXTuning (they had 5 in stock).

PMd about that fuel pump...:)

What kind of sound/volume level/look at you going for?

Ok :) Let me see what I can come up with. :devil:

Dave, I want some CBE like this:

But i want it to be 3 inches and have a flat mating flange to the D/P.

Whatcha got?

So why don't you just get the APS cat back 3"???

Its the cleanest of all...

APS stuff is great but overpriced. I guess I'll have to get their front mount after seeing it on your car as I am getting the intake. It looks sweet, that red piping does especially and the fit is perfect.

Plus I have the SPT catback now that just needs to be modified by Midas back from Dave's hacks. It is 3 inch piping.

Yeah some of the APS stuff is great and totally worth the money, their intakes are the best out there, their BOVs actually hold boost, and some of their other stuff is REALLLLLLY nice, but not really worth the extra $$$. A lot of it, while its very good, just isnt what I would call "good bang for the buck" as it costs so much more and doesnt DO so much more.

That said, you absolutely cant go wrong with APS parts, you are just going to pay more for it that you probably need to in order to reach a given performance level.

My intake finally shipped according to my tracking #. Looks like they screwed up on shipping it out last thursday and sent it yesterday. Also, they shipped it ground when I ordered it thursday second day air so it would be here on time (before going back to work). I am just gonna buy locally now on from you Dave. That way if something does not arrive and can just come take your air compressor or something until it does. ;) :devil:

Not after what you did to it. LOL!

Oh and my intake just got here Tess tells me, but I am at work. Never again will I try and order from an online shop. XXTuning was good at getting it out, but I still had to call them several times, and it was still two days late from when they quoted I should have recieved it. Vivid racing, I just ended up canceling because they were finally honest and told me that their suppiler had run out of them. :mad:

I will Chris. I asked for you when I ordered it, but you were on vacation. The intake arrived only 2 days late (you guys actaully ended up overnighting another one (thanks btw!)) as the problem was with DHL. No biggie. Dave was honest when I tried to go through him and told me his supplier could not get the intake until February or something like that. Vivid really pissed me off because they said they had it in stock at their "warehouse" and I would get it way before xmas. Finally after calling Vivid 10 times or so (and 3 weeks later), they admitted their supplier was out of them. I immediatley thought of you guys and called. You had 5 in stock so I ordered one. I am glad I did, it was only a little late. Next time I will ask for ya. I did tell whoever I was talking to when I placed the order to say hi to you for me. ;)

Take care,

Gabe

Davenow, how much are the water/meth kits?

What are the options there? I forgot the supplier you use.

any word on replacement 3'' for the 2.5'' borla?

Davenow, how much are the water/meth kits?

Depends which way you go, I have SMC kits and I am now a Snow Performance dealer as well. The snow "stage 2" kits are 400 bucks, they come with no tank, I can get you one, or you can use whatever you want. But as they are a "piece by piece" style kit, they are a bit more "flexible" as far as installation options.

The SMC kits, since you are local you are looking at 475, but the install is easier and you get a full stainless braided line. Those are available in either the underhood washer tank kit, or the universal mount kit.

Which is better? All depends what you want to do. They are both progressive controller kits, performance wise will be the same.


any word on replacement 3'' for the 2.5'' borla?


I JUST (a few hours ago) got my comp fully back up and running after the second mobo swap in 2 days:mad: I ended up having to reinstall windows/everything this time. Office is the next thing going on then I can get to my spreadsheets. I know that Borla does make a couple catbacks that come in 2.5, and they make some that are pretty much the same thing, in 3".

I vaguely remember our conversation about it, what sound were you looking for?

just to have it in ur thread


check on my prodrive 3-port bcs

im just looking to replace the 2.5 borla with anything 3'', i want it loud :) but i want the look of apexi n1 because the borla is pretty low profile(looks like a single tip stock exhaust) my borla is in great condition so im looking to do some time of trade.
thanks man

I just called the last of 3 Prodrive sources I have, no one has any in stock anywhere. If you find one, GET IT. They have left the country and when they are all gone, there wont be any more unless you order it from overseas.

Can I get a price on a universal trunk-mount SMC kit? What size tank do those come with?

Can you get CP pistons and Pauter rods?

I know I can get CP pistons, and a few different brands of rods, I will check on the Pauters (That is something I will have to call the distributer on)

But yes 100% on the Pistons.


Did you ever get that MAP sensor working with the UTEC? Jermaine told me that its possible if you run the oem map to the ECU and DTEC map to the UTEC.

I haven't really messed with it since the Mile. I need to mess with it, but I just blew the motor so I've got different priorities. Send me prices on the pistons and I'll see what we can do. My builder suggested the Pauters or Crowers, so either one work for me, I'm not too picky.

Ok I have prices on CP pistons, CP rings and Eagle rods.

BUT, I found out that I CAN get the Pauter and Crower rods, I am just waiting on a price sheet from them.

Do you want me to get you the price with the Eagle rods now, or do you want me to wait and shoot you a list with the Pauters and Crowers as well? It will only be like 2 hours anyway, as my contact is out for lunch at the moment.

You can hold off on getting me the price of Eagles....If I was on a hellaciosly tight budget and wasn't going for the power numbers that I am then they would be fine, but I'm not 100% comfortable with Eagles' ability to hold under big power.

What gives you that opinion on the Eagles? (I ask because I am still thinking about pulling my motor to build it here soon and I was going to use them, I only plan on going to GT30R on pump/alch power levels at the most)

Hey Dave who was it that I should contact about OEM parts? Need a rear diffuser for an 06 STI.

Gabe

PM Hondaslayer.

tx05sti, did you get my pm with the prices?

dave, you wouldnt have any up-pipe studs to the turbo would you? im in need of some and the dealer stats they dont carry them since they come with their up-pipe only.

tx05sti, did you get my pm with the prices?

Wouldve been nice to have my quote before I ordered my parts. :sadbanana:

Crap:sadbanana: sorry man. If you ordered elsewhere because I didnt get back to you fast enough I deserve to lose the sale, no excuses. (yes I am just as hard on my self as I have been on others, probably worse) I am trying and getting better though.

I am still learning how to "keep up" doing this all myself. Tax stuff has my head spinning right now:eek::eek::eek: and has for the past couple weeks. I am discovering I didnt keep my records anywhere near organized enough.

Nope, just the one saying that you might not be able to get them until tomorrow....no biggie, my car isn't going anywhere :lol:

Hey Dave,

You are not a supplier for Labonte are you?

I am more than likey getting this and this quoted from them for $408 + free shipping towards the end of the week (unless snow has there version ready before then).

Also, can you get me pricing on a JDM Spec C intercooler sprayer tank (I want to refill less often)?

Gabe

I will call them and ask them tomorrow morning :)


I THINK I can get the spec C tank as well. Its $$$ but nice.

My extra parts from snow arrive today. :banana::banana::banana:

I am tempted to install with the current controller instead of waiting for the safeinjection and new controller first. ;)

Knowing me I will prolly wait and try to sell the extra controller that came with the kit as I have not opened it yet.

Do it. Its fine man, the chances of a failure are INCREDIBLY minute (sp?) and even if you do have an issue, if you tune it right you stand very little chance of actually doing any damage. Its only the most ragged edge tunes(like my personal vehicles) are insta-blow. Even then, its not a 100% certainty it would pop.

I am definitely gonna install it soon. I better finsih tuning Tessa's car first though. ;)

Dave,

I need silicon IC hoses (turbo to y pipe and IC to TB) and T-bolt clamps. Since I over filled (because of the misterious quart hidden in my engine somewhere) and the fact that I am peaking at 20 PSI now, the turbo to IC hose keeps coming loose. Plus, I have had to reclamp it so damn often that now it is chewed up a bit. Can you gets the parts?

Ok so I need 2 of these:

I really only need the two IC hoses and tbolt clamps.

Whatcha think Dave, you hav the hookup on some IC hoses and clamps? 20PSI + oil overfill = turbo hose getting loose often. ;)

Ok I ordered the clamps. I should replace the turbo to IC hose and the IC to TB hose. Do you have a supplier for these Dave?

All I want is the 90* elbow and the TB to IC hose.

Also, Hondaslayer never got back to me about a rear 06-07 STI stock diffuser.

Gabe

Just got off the phone with Snow, to answer your questions.

1-3 weeks for the safeinjection and the new controller. I guess they are changing a couple things about them.
Pump can run anything. straight water, straight ethanol, straight isopropyl, straight methanold, 50/50 mix of any of the above. You can even run straight windsheild washer fluid (which is basically 70/30 water/methanol in most cases)

Dave, can you get me this kit from innovative, like we were talking about yesterday?

Innovative Wideband kit (http://www.innovatemotorsports.com/xcart/product.php?productid=16164&cat=262&page=1&xid=5dac1fc283cf0de4916180989f1fba18)

Bobby, you can get a 10 dollar discount through the romraider site by entering the "enginuity" discount code. I dunno if Dave can get it cheaper than that.

Also, you may want to look into the DB gauges instead of the XD16. It is only 289 for that kit with the discount. The XD16 is P&P is all, the DB gauges you wire in.

Gabe

I saw it for 339. The innovative site says its 399. So 339 is the best I have seen it for. Dave told me the price for a UEGO, but I haven't read to many good reviews on it. I would rather spend a little bit more money and get something that is quality.

The LC1 + DB gauge is quality. The difference is that the DB gauge runs off of one of the LC1 output wires and not one of the plugs. Also the XD16 gauge has the recalibrate button built in, so you don't have to do much wiring. I don't mind wiring (solder and heatshrink FTW!), so I just got the DB gauge and I wired in the recalibrate button and LED and hid it under the dash.

I wasnt talking about the other innovative stuff, I was talking about the AEM UEGO.

I wasnt talking about the other innovative stuff, I was talking about the AEM UEGO.

The AEM in tests is not as good as the Innovate. Innovate has the best reviews because you can do a free air calibration as the sensor wears out. Everyone I know uses Innovate for perm installs. The AEM UEGO is not fully supported yet in enginuity (romraider now), so when tuning, you would have to tune fuel completely seperate from the other variables which is a PITA.

Im gonna buy springs first before I buy anything. I might buy springs this month, depending on what my paycheck is. Otherwise it will be march before I get them.

I told ya I cant last night didnt I? (it was loud in there though)

I also only just recently got access to innovate stuff on the wholesale side.

Fixed. ;)

according to my sources that setup you linked from innovate isnt available at the moment with no in stock ETA :(

I am 99% sure they are direct, so maybe call innovate themselves.

The DB gauges are often out of stock. They have 2 types with 4 different gauges. I love my DB gauge. Much better than the XD16 IMHO.

Dave, you must have been drunk last night, I was in St. Louis. So no you didnt tell me last night. And in regards to the innovative stuff, what would a setup without a guage run me, just enough to data-log with when I wanted to with the ability to add a gauge later, gabe chime in here.

189.99 with the enginuity discount. You can add the gauge later (I had to because they were out of stock on the red one).

So all I would need is the LC-1? And then I can add stuff later?

Yeah it is a kit, comes with everything you need except solder and stuff. Get a TT harness and wire it into that. You wire all the grounds to the black wire and all the power to the yellow wire on the TT harness. Clean install. ;)

I will have you help me install it. I think I would also need a serial to USB converter, but thats cheap to pick up.

Yeah get the airlink one and a TT harness. I'll halp ya wire it up, I have all the tools. Get the bung welded in though (unless your D/P has an extra bung). I'll add a connector for the DB gauge so you can just pop it in and plug it in (this is what I did for easy install of gauges, they all run off of the TT harness that has extra wires with leads and heat shrinked spade connectors that I added for gauge additions). ;)

hmm.. I dont even know of a non puck ceramic. Let me see what I can dig up. How much power are you looking to make?

I am thinking around 500tq for now.
What is the deal with puck clutchs? It just does not look like there is enough surface space.

I dont really understand it myself, but I know they grab hard as hell and tend to be very harsh, even if you use a sprung hub.


I am calling on the parts that I need to call on in about 5 min.

I had a brain fart on the clutch I ment Organic.

The SB4-XTSS from ACT looks like it will fit my needs the best. The cheapest I have forund was 619.00

Mine doesnt have a fail safe, SMC doesnt have one available at the moment. Really if your tune is set up correctly you will most likely be able to withstand an injection failure. I know that I have run out of mix at full boost, as well as a couple friends of mine and none of us have lost the motor when it happened (learn from our mistakes, watch your fluid level lol)

I dont have an SMC kit in stock at the moment, I can get one though.
I DO have a Snow Performance stage 2 kit in stock. This is a universal mount setup, and its a good bit cheaper. Snow also has a failsafe in production that should be available within a month or so. That kit runs $420. It doesnt come with a tank, but you can get that from US Plastics for dirt cheap. I believe the tank that the SMC kit uses is about $17 shipped or something like that. I know its real cheap. The nice thing is you can pick whatever size/shape you want. It can also be stealthier as you can hide the pump etc.

I put my tank in the drivers side rear corner over the factory sub. I removed the sub and put a carpeted board over that panel, then screwed the tank to it. Its ROCK solid and out of the way back there. Easy to get to and fill as well.

Dave .. can you send me a list of street/track pads you are carrying. Dust is not a big issue as screeching is. This will be for 06 sti. Thanks

I just got an 07sti, had an 05 that got totalled, was able to salvage from the down pipe back of my 3.5" aps exhaust. So i need the downpipe and turbo to downpipe adapter. Unless you know of any other down pipe that will fit so i can get my 3.5" exhaust back again.

I dont think so yet. I will make a couple calls on Monday to see. I would bet that Cobb isnt far off.

Dave .. any news on the brake pads?

PM'd :)

Back :D

aftermarket front rotors for a '00 RS?

I carry Stoptech and Powerslot. I dont have the prices for the pre 02 models in front of me, I will get them tomorrow morning.

Do you have a preference? They both typically run about the same price, with stoptech sometimes being a little cheaper. Both are great rotors from a quality standpoint.

Dave....get back to me on that computer and those Hella's!


I have the money to send you.

PM'd!:)

Dave what brakes did you end up going with? And how is the motor comming along.

Shoot me a pm with an update.

JDM 4 pots up front
Racing Brake slotted front rotors
Racing Brake rear "H6" upgrade kit w/slotted rotors
Hawk HPS pads front and back
Goodridge lines
ATE super blue


And one of these days I will price out a WRX/STi master cyl, and as long as its not $texas I will pick one up and do the swap.

It will stop on a dime and leave change. Out brake a stock STI easily. STI with pads/lines would obviously have the advantage though.

Short block is going together today or tomorrow. Heads are off being ported/polished, 5 angle valve job on Ferrea stainless valves, and Cosworth 278/274 cams.

There are also a few top secret things happening behind the scenes :devil:

What is the biggest side feed injectors you can get?
And at what cost?

I should be ready to buy the injectors next week. I think I will be at about 600hp

SWEEEEEEEEET.

8000rpm redline as well I assume? That block can handle it no problem.

850 side feeds is the biggest I can get. If you need larger you would have to convert to top feed (rails/TGV housings) and I can get 1100cc injects.

For your HP level 850s should be fine, especially with the meth injection.



What is up with the HUGE HP bump TXIC is having right now?

2-3 BIG bolt on turbos
2-3 rotated setups not counting mine
My monster. Im looking for 520-530 on race gas. I wont be able to turn it up that high till I do a transmission though. I am hoping for about 350whp daily driver, 400whp more "fun" map in the meanwhile. It wont be even remotely a problem hitting those numbers. The bigger problem will be holding the daily driver map back. Even at 12.2PSI (my WG boost) I will be flowing massive air. I guess nuke the timing and run rich.

it will not be long before sa and austin can take on just about any city.


shoot me a pm on a cost of injectors.

Thanks
