Hey guys I haven't been around here for a while since my car is all torn down for a full repaint. Just wanted to pop in and say hi. I also wanted to show you some pics of the progress. Lately I have been spending my time playing with my Audi S4 to keep me tied over till my baby is done.

Before:

Why the body work: (car wash wrecked my ****) I know I should have never had them wash it.

NOW:

how did a car wash place do that to your car?

It's a fine looking car, why did you even take a car that nice to a place like a average joe wash?

They were moving the car about 20ft we the guy must have reved it a little and his wet foot must have slipped off of the clutch.

My car was far from flawless before this, it is just really photogenic. It needed a full repaint anyways. So I got them to pay me 6k for a 10k paint job total. So I see it as $4k out of my pocket for something I was going to have to pay 10k for someday to do it right.

I am going to paint it the same color red with white stripes.

Next time if you ever do take it to get cleaned, tell them not to put armor all on the pedals..lol..j/k..

10k paint job?? not really a big paint expert but that seems high to me unless its totally custom...i have seen the mystic chrome paint jobs done on cars for 8k including door jambs, trunk and engine bay...what are you doin with your paint?

First off I live in CA where everything costs more. Everything is being stripped and repainted. Usually when people shoot the jambs they don't dissasemble it. I am also getting all new glass included.

I will. So what does your 347 run in the quarter. With that setup and gas, you should have no problem running high 10s.

Man I would have been pissed that car looked fuggin awsome before can't wait to see it done.

lxwants12's · Apr 3, 2006

11.34@116mph..on et streets...11.73@113mph on nittor 555r's...mph is a concern and i was running like 38 psi of fuel...raised it that same day when i got home to 44psi...and i spray in the middle of second gear...75 shot...first time spraying so i was taking it easy....but next weekend..ill spray the 100 shot..off the line and raise the limiter to 6200 its set at 5800 right now....just wanting to get it dynoed b4 i go to crazy with the spray....running better then i hope for im just happy!!!

jaybquick · Apr 3, 2006

Nice dude. What is your CR and cam specs. Mine is only 9.2 and setup for a blower. So once I put on a blower my 11.92 will improve to 10s. You should be able to get 10s too once you sort it all out.

slow5poh · Apr 3, 2006

nice car i think i just soiled myself.

lxwants12's · Apr 3, 2006

10.5 comp...all forged....afr 185's..cam specs are not crazy..its a cam specially grounded for the juice..so the car only makes like 340 rwph untuned and 367 rwtq..but i was told by comp cams that once i spray that cam will do its magic...and the nx kits usually rate there hp shots at the wheels...so 400 rwhp and like 430 rwtq would be sweet enough for me...but that 100 shot is so tempting too!!.......cant wait for the dyno....

jaybquick thats a gorgeous car, i would have ****n FREAKED if i pulled up and saw my car like that. at least you are doing it right. i wouldnt be surprise if some dickhead was screwing off in ur car. id make sure they fired that bastard.

lxwants12's · Apr 3, 2006

see i wanted to say that too^^^ BUT its never a good feeling for a stang owner to think some1 else was hotrodding their baby!!!plus i mean even if the clutch slip and he revved to high...that pic looks like they were ****ing around and couldnt handle that beast!!

jaybquick · Apr 3, 2006

lxwants12's · Apr 3, 2006
