Seriously OT: The Real 3rd Thready...

All sema requires is a buisiness license or tax number.

Its not really anything impressive to go to unless your accually looking to setup suppliers and check out their new products.

how do i that...get to SEMA that is


You have to apply online on there site. The Vegas show is only open to businesses. Thats why I wanted to go I have been to 3-4 other SEMAs but the Vegas one blows any show I have ever been to away.

I sent in an application with a business card and my business license.
Very easy to do.

An AF meet in Vegas :icon16:


99% of people on AF arnt old enough to do anything in vegas...

I have an eye lash stuck flat to the corner of my eye. By flat I mean that neither end is sticking up for me to grab onto and pull it off. So now my eye is bleeding and stings like crazy. Guess it could be worse, i could have a contect lense stuck to my eye again (I kept with my glasses after that).

rubber coated tweezers? Oh yeah, walmart has divx dvd players... the one I baught earlier is divx compatable.

Hence the reason why Completely Off topic is to suck.

But yea I wont be visitnig Vegas anytime soon. I went to SEMA last year and had a blast but doing that ever year for someone who isnt in the automotive field its hard. 2-3 years we will go back to Vegas and SEMA when we can afford not to stay in the Stratosphere again...yuck

1995 NSX, runs, drives, no visible damage, sold for $17,800 to somebody not me :loser:

CivicSpoon, grab your eye lid and pull it over your eye and move your eye around. Eventually the eye lash will come free or poke you in your pupil. But at least you should be able to grab it out of your eye then. GL

Circus Circus was adequate hotel in Vegas when me and the mrs. stayed there on the way to LA a few years back.

Only if I want to see :p I only had contacts for a day, and it took me 2 hours to get them off my eye. I had to have my mom stick her finger in my eye and take them off for me. It was really bad, had blood dripping down under my eyes.

Oh yeah, walmart has divx dvd players... the one I baught earlier is divx compatable.
I found the program that I need...kind of. It's called TMPGEnc, but there are like 4 or 5 different versions that I saw (Xpress 3, 5in1, Studio 1, Software Suite 2005, All in One). And everytime I do a google search to find out info on them to see which one I need, all I get are torrent links with no valuable info. Guess I'm going to have to find out the hard way (I'll obviously start with the all in one and 5 in 1).

I created a business just to go to SEMA in Vegas last year.

with moving and a huge job we had to complete there way too much going on to get away and go to SEMA this year :disappoin

i just keep telling myself the theme was a tribute to american muscle and be glad i caught 2005 which was sponsored by honda.....which honda gave out over 30 brand new Si's for different manufacturers to pimp out in their own way. it was honda overload. sticker, banners, cars, oh my!

Thanks, I'll definently try that. Right now it seems to be fine, so it may have moved all the way to the back of my eye.

Well, on that note, I'm leaving. Maby the new avitar will be up the next time I get on.

Yea I saw ur EMO myspace pics :grinno: I was at the same SEMA..I loved the SI done up in denim and the closed track out back where they had the lotus drifting like crazy. Suchhhh a good time. Came home with pounds of stickers and lanyards and SEMA breath mints lol

Yeah, but I'd rather listen to the sound from my home theater thing than my computer speakers. And if it's worth watching I'd be able to bring it over to my friends house...though now that I think about it he only has a PS2 so it wouldn't play anyways.

Amy has an emo myspace? I wanna see /does pee pee dance.

I'd have to find a way to get some cables that will plug into my sound card and into the rca connections on the back of the HT unit. And I've pretty sure my sound card only has those headphone jack looking connections (but there are quite a few I know I'm not using). When I had the $ I should have bought a better sound card, then I could have recorded my drums onto my computer too.

which remind me...a friend has a myspace headline that makes me think of Civic Spoon. it reads "i wish my grass were emo so it would cut it's self" :spit:LOL. That sure would help with all the trimming that needs to be done for the final product. Nothing like trimming and having your fingers all stuck together with resin.

hi Civic Spoon :wave: you have been located as well :licka: :smooch:What do you mean? You found my emo myspace page?
Edit - Holy shiznit, how in the hell did you find me on there???

Ohhh I gotcha, guess I have a 1 track mind.

And yes you really did scare me. But seriously, how did you find me on there? It's not like my name was CivicSpoon on there or anything.

she can find u by email or ur full name.

must be by e-mail, because I didn't use my real name and I've never given it out here (don't think I've even given out my first name here). I hope it was by e-mail because it's freaking me out now.

i've been laying the smack down on spammers since 2001....i know how to find people :uhoh:

as for Daryl, good ol Dee, we go back a ways....like 12-13yrs. ROTFL, that guy remembers some funny shit.

I finally got a response from Sony about my dvd burner not working:

"As the drive test will not see the blank disc to run your drive needs to
be replaced. Your Product is no longer covered for the limited technical
support warranty. After 90 days from the date of your first call to
technical support, the cost of technical support is $19.95 and applies to each solution. You can pay to have the drive repaired. The cost is $100.00."

Like I'm really going to give these assholes any more $. And $100 to get it repaired?! WTF are they smoking, I can find a new one for cheaper than that. I'm seriously never going to buy another Sony product again, not even when the PS3 is $200 in 4-5 years.

holy shit you guys have been busy.

well i rolled the golf cart. 3 times. turned sharp to the left to avoid a dog and it just flipped. thank god i was wearing mechanic gloves my leather jacket and some jeans. i got road rash on both arms/shoulders/knees/legs/etc. the golf cart is good though drove it back to my supervisor's house. his roomate was riding shotgun and he took alot of the damage. he was wearing some pants with a hole in them and got scraped bad.

Jackass #4:evillol:

well my sup's not mad. just glad he doesn't have to make a report about it. it was fucking fun all up to that point.

there is a dirt bike track behind his house. we took the golf cart there first. after putting some foglights on it. it was great.

i almost flipped one on gravel...put it in reverse and mad a sharp left turn...my passenger and i thought it was over

he comes the teaser. keep in mind these are the pics off my phone, with no flash. the pics off the digi cam will be better.

a customer with a 2000 si was the last car in an 11 car pile up. it recieved frame damage but the b16 survived. we picked up a 96 (green) dx he bought from us, and we built it into to one hell of a car in 3 months...just the 2 of us. Down To Ground, we're hard core :icon16:

the car was changed from green to white and everything else was undercoated. everything was removed, wires, breaklines...stripped down to just 2 pieces of glass. converted over power steering, power door locks, power windows, cruise control (including the '00 steering wheel w/ controls), rear disc brakes. installed the 2000 dash complete with the 96 VIN swapped over (ATTENTION TO DETAIL IS EVERYTHING). installed all bolt-on's: skunk2 1 piece coliover/struts, skunk2 cat-back exhaust, AEM fpr, AEM fuelrail, AEM fuel filter, koyo radiator, ACT clutch/flywheel, pressure plate, GReddy timing belt, and any other bolt on i'm sure i'm forgetting about. polished everything: breakines, block, tranny, dizzy, brackets, and so on. oh yea, converted the front end to 2000 bumper, fenders, lights....it got a spoiler, racing seats, projectors, CF hood, CF gas door

i know we did more, i just can't think of it off hand. so there you have it. literally a brand new car. w00t for clean customs!

the neighbors came out of the houses and wanted to call the ambulance however, where the ambulance goes police follow. we told them NO! don't call anyone. we' are walking and talking we're good. so we both were trying to get off the ground and back into the golf cart. took a minute but we got back in and hauled ass done the street to the house and went inside.

screw the car...i just like looking at that clean engine

damn that looks nice!

i read the rule and regulations for importing a show car...and if i can save some $$$ and find an EF8...i want to get one...i did find an EF9 with the factory installed Mugen kit on it...it's probably gone now

i also forgot.....since all the wires were taken out, rewired and whatnot....jer went ahead and rewrapped the entire harness in blue. there is zero blue loom. there is zero black electrical tape. it's one of those really nice small details

the 96 hatch didn't have keys (the previous owner threw them in a field drunk, so i'm told) and the wrecked 00 si had mis-matched keys. we had the entire 96 keyed to match the ignition key of the 00. also added the latch for the trunk release from the 00 to the 96 as it has the key lock. another small detail

wow. attention to detail leads to the cleanest cars.

should have done a wire tuck :thumbsup:

those wire tucks luck real good. i thought about it. but for my car it's more work than i want to do.

damn...that is a sh*t load of work. Some of the parts (and colors) aren't my cup of tea, but that is really clean. A friend of mine and his landlord are trying to start a business, though they've been doing engine swaps and bolt-on stuff for years at their shop. But they don't do even ½ as nice of a job putting it all together (more of just a throw it together and make sure it runs right thing). 2 :thumbsup::thumbsup: for doing it the right way.

ahhhhhhhhh! WTF?

I know a guy who bought an EF9 last year it's pretty cool. Here's some pics if you want to see it. Pages 1,2,5,6 http://www.thejdm.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=6213&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0
I can try and ask him where he got it (somewhere in Cali I know) if you want me too. One of his friends got a 180sx from the same people.
