Update on my car.
Hey guys, I've been gone for a while. I've been really busy with my car, job, school and new girlfriend. Anywho, I just wanted to let you guys know whats up with the beast in my garage. I have the stroker kit sitting in my garage and my block is out. I'm waiting on valve keepers and valve stem seals after i get those (slow boy sucks at shipping 2 1/2 weeks!) I'll take myshit toa machine shop. The are going to put the valves in and i think i'm just goint to have them assemble the bottom end depending on how much they want to do it. I found a turbo i'll probably buy it's a 60-1 good to 550whp (my goal is 500whp) its only $600 at a local shop. I'll keep you guys posted as I make progress.

Re: Update on my car.
Yeah i think that was the last time i'll order from them they aen't very well priced either. Oh well. I'm really excited about getting mycar done though, I'm thinking it will be running in ~2 weeks depending on how long they take at the machine shop.

Re: Update on my car.
Yeah, bastard. Too good for us eh?
 Good to hear you are almost running. I have ordered stuff from SBR twice, both were good experiences. The valve seals/valves were shipped the day after I bought them and the head gasket only took like a week to get here. I have heard bad shit about them too though. My buddy Matt has ordered from them like 40 times, he says their shipping dept sucks nuts. When he fried his first tranny in the WRX, he got a new clutch from them. Well, the new tranny (not from them) had a 3 month warranty and he waited 2 months for the clutch from SBR. When he got it, he put it back together and started driving it. Well, he drove it for about a month and the second tranny blew and he missed the warranty by 3 days. If SBR had been on top of their shit, it would have gone while it was still under warranty and he wouldnt have to just eat the cost of a new tranny.

Re: Update on my car.
Yeah, slowboy has a lot but they really have always sucked on the shipping when I've ordered something. Check out extremepsi.com... I ordered the shit for my motor yesterday and its supposed to be here tomorrow. They're like the fastest and I love them for that. lol

Re: Update on my car.
Yea i love extremepsi.com, I ordered from them numerous times. Always came within a day. Im in NJ and their in PA, so it usually will come next day. They defiantly are sweet with shipping. I ordered stuff from slowboy before and it took like 2 weeks. Sucked!

Re: Update on my car.
Me too, but I they should update all the gauge pix on their site, I order boost gauge ( the one with yellow vacum # ), they send me new version of the boost gauge, the one with all black # . Refund my money the next day.

Re: Update on my car.
Hey guys, i just dropped my parts off at the machine shop. Quick question, I'm ordering belts, should i get 1g belt or 2g belts? I have a 6bolt block but 7 bolt alternator and ps pump. Any ideas?
