Yeh Damion i'm very happy in the area i live, i get tons of races. Good luck with that Hot Import Nights thing again too. Afterwards are you going out on the free way with lots of cars like pinyoot4you, that would be cool. And about the Xenon head and foglights when i talked to the guy about it he said its the same kind that audi,bmw, and lexus all use which is what i want. And i'm pretty sure that they do put off that bluish color, which i heard is also much better lighting.
SilverSpec-V man your lucky getting them for 13 dollars thats a good deal. And how are those xenon lights working out for you? I cant wait. |

I'm goin to get my Xenon headlights today, cant wait. Ill let you no how it goes and how they are.
Oh yeh and yesterday was awsome. I finally got to race my friend in his black spec v. We raced two times and I won both of them i was so happy, i didin't wanna lose to my own car. First time light turns green we both spin i spin very little he had a longer spin so i pull away right away, then he got out of first gear to quick and had another pretty bad spin goin into second i ended up beaten him pretty bad maybe a car and a half. Second time light turns green same thing both spin he spins a tiny bit longer so i pull ahead, and then its close the hole rest of the way. i saw his bumper out of the back passenger window. But it was fun to race my own car. And first launch i dropped the clutch at about 2700rpm and secnond launch i launched a bit igher not sure what it exactly was but i didn't drop it that time. I think first launch was better. |

Hey Zane, there are two different wattage outputs for Xenon bulbs, 120w and 65w. The 65w is the correct one we are suppose to use according to our manual, I asked the sales Rep when purchasing mine, and they didn't recommend using higher wattage because they are not sure if the car's electrical Sys can handle it (don't want to burn any wires, or anything at all). As for the 65w bulbs, they are not as bright compared to the bmw's, lexus, or s2k. My friend gots a s2k and we compaired side by side, his is brighter by a long shot. Again, they seems to get brighter (to me at least).

The salesguy said that these bulbs are the most similar to the HID headlights which are one the bmw,lexus,audi and mercedes and are still legal. So i really hope they have that bluish purple tint to them.
And yesterday on my way home from getting the bulbs a 300zx was on my ass and a big hill was coming up and we flew up the high zipping threw the traffic it was cool. When we got be everyone he pulled in the other lane and tried catching me but i very very slowly was pulling away. Really fun it most of been a non turbo. |

One crazy Sat.....
I'm kind of mad but at the same time I had a crazy ass night last night. We were at this one spot to race, now normally this spot is pretty good for racing. Sometimes we will race there until we get bored, anyway there was some racing going on. You guys remember that SI w/ all the mods and the TypeR internals I told you about? Well I'm always waiting to run him, but I wasn't gonna run him until after my car cooled down. Were good friends so it's not like he's scared to run or anything. But as soon as we were gonna run, someone said COPS,COPS,COPS. Yo I swear you would think you were watching The Fast and The Furious. Everyone was scattering like roaches once the lights turn on and when I was getting ready to get out the parking lot the cop was coming in where I was trying to get out. My girl was like GO GO GO, so when he went up the entrance I noticed that he wasn't gonna block me in, YO I TOOK OFF. Everyone was going left, going right. There had to be like almost 30 or so cars leaving. But while I was driving away I was hitting my steering wheel because I was pissed off, EVERY TIME I wanna run my friend Brent w/ that SI, it never happens.
Oh yeah that's not it either. There was this UGLY ass green Del Sol that got blocked in, for some reason this person with a NON VTEC Del Sol, with two other people in there as well decided to try and run away from the cops. Now I was already gone with like 8 people behind me, we pulled in this HOME DEPOT parking lot to regroup and all of a sudden,about maybe 5 minutes later we saw two cop cars fyling on the main street, come to find out that they were chasing that Green Del Sol. When we all regrouped they told me that the cops had the driver and the two girls on the floor w/ guns out on them. Like I said, one crazy ass night. Today we are just gonna cruise. Don't worry, once I race that SI, I already told him that I want on tape whether I win or lose because I got some people that wanna see it. Talk to you guys later.:alien:

Hey I don't know what bulbs you guys are getting, but I want those that the BMW's, Lexus, and AUDI have. You guys know what I'm talking about, that nice purpleish color at night. Are they available for our cars, is that what you guys are buying? You guys are actually the only ones that know about it, but in a few months I am gonna get a 6inch TV in the car. I'm gonna have it so when I open the flip up compartment above the stereo, it's gonna come out. At show's, just to boost up the cars image some more I'm gonna be playing that CD-ROM movie the whole time, maybe even some recorded street racing of me and other cars.

Wow that is onr crazy staurday night. Sounds like a good place for racing. And thats kool you ran from the cops, sux for the people who got caught. Hope never happens to me.
The bmw and lexus and other cars that come with the Xenon headlights they are HID which we cannot get, we could get the PIAA bulbs that look just like the HID, but not the hole HID set up just a buld that has the bluish purplish tint. Very close in looks though. When i get back from my trip im picking them up and ill take a pic. Ill get them either friday or saturday, Good luck with the racing when im gone. |
