    Welcome to the IHoP

    Long hose. I bought three 50' sections when they were closing them out at Northern Tool, somethin' like a $12ea (normally a lot more), but it lets you go anywhere with it. 2600 is not enough to clean gutters with a narrow tip, 3000 is....

    Sorta high from painting my tweeter pods. The flat black I had on hand was dried up so I painted them glossy testers black. See how they look tomorrow before I decide if I want to paint over them flat. Will post pics in an hour or so when they are dry.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    I know you don't want gas, but I have a 2600psi gas and it isn't enough for doing most other things. Even with a skinny tip it isn't too strong for washing cars, I'd get one that is way bigger than you think you need.
  4. I am waiting for a little bodyworkpatch on the tweets to dry before I paint them. Going to try and make them flat black first and see how that looks as I have the paint. Here are the kicks ready to be installed. The portion of the drivers side on the top left will be covered by the hood release and the other top is actually under the level of the underdash covering so I wasn't too anal about making it nice since you won't see it and I don't have lots of patience. The other bummer is in order to use the grills that I found I have to put screws all the way through on the driver side since I didn't lower the dead pedal enough to not be in the way, I was originally planning on using 7" grills but couldn't find any. I had to recess it into the pedal. Here are pics.

    I was under the impression that Gateway went under about 1.5 yrs ago. Out of business/sold to someone else. They had closed their SD research anyways

    You hate many things, James. I hate Dell, not all Dells but Dell itself.

    db drag at stop light

    hahaha good story. its funny when you outbump someone, they always wanna race you afterwards That is funny too, I would always rather race because I know my system sounds better and I am not going to invite some small peckker azz into my car to hear my system, but I am going to give him a decent look of my trunk.

    Its ridiculous, can have way more maching for half... Just realized it was a laptop, but for 1/3 the money you could build a desktop that smoked it completely including a 19" flat.

    I think you have to find out the hardway with port noise. Had the great idea to put 3 1500gti's in one box--in the 90's mind you--then after listening to it sealed for a while I ported it. 3" port wasn't enough nor was there enough volume in the box so I capped it. Perfect way to show somone the benefits or a real box

  18. Why not both in the middle pointing up with a little air entry on both sides?

    Welcome to the IHoP

    Hope, and I assume that you are alright. Good lesson for the punk azzes, even though I didn't think any of them were dumb enough to jump someone they couldn't beat, natural selection at its best. Hope you guys took care of them good.
  20. Doh! Sorry to hear that...

    Bored... so i post PICS!!!! lots

    Regretably those are not going to work on your car then... Pretty hard to have RWD offset and FWD offset in the same rim and the schtuff that they make for bimmers won't have the FWD offset even possible. Definetely one weird thing Bm'er does is with the setup of their rims. Of course, for me I won't sacrifice any performance to go bigger. I need a real specific offset and less than 22lbs in an 18 or 19, tough to find if it ain't OEM or OEM knock-off (or of course absurdly expensive)

    I like the big air gaps and 5 spokes, what size are you going to go with? Where are you shopping? I need some 18's for my M next spring. Going to keep the 17's for snoshoes.
