New England Chit Chat

[Jeepngli]

I am a big UMI supported. Made in America, good customer service. They custom painted the parts blue for me for only a few bucks more. Very accommodating. Here's whats I have:

At the time, they only had the rod ends I hear they're noisey in general. The roto-joints are supposed to be super nice. I like the polyurethane bushings tho so I'll stick with those.

I like BMR stuff, but from what I see its an overkill on most normal cars. There stuff is rated really well, but I don't see myself at that level and time soon.

The UMI Anti-wheel hop kits is very nice. I do like the Steeda Upper I have as well now. We'll see.

For the subframes, I did slurge and get the Chrome Molly. Pretty impressed with the weight and quality. Super excited to really give them hell.

so brian, u comming sat or what?

 

[S197gt07]

Which one...?

Brian, good to know about the UMI stuff, I think i'll be ordering some stuff from them this fall when its track time

 

[Jeepngli]

Yea definitely. I think I forget how good the anti-wheel hop kit and take it for granted most of the time. Like I said, I'll have an Upper control arm and UMI Mount for sale


And there's a lot of Brian's up here! Feel free to call me Jeep or BB or RC Brian to distinguish. Not sure if I'll be making it up there with the car. Not sure if I can fit getting it registered and inspected into my week. From now until end of August I have a lot of work stuff and studying so I may be a bit of a ghost. After that, I'm good to go.

We will have to pick a meeting spot and head north together.

 

[Jeepngli]

So I need some license plate suggestions. I have a few in mind. Would Anti-LS1 be too obnoxious? Might be a little much for only having 5lbs of boost I think...but I like it

Yea, I mean for a straight up LS1 you could fair well.

If somebody in an LS3/6/7/9 comes around they might take it personally haha.

I'm not a fan of plates that "call out" so to speak other cars. Because at some time you will get whopped by the car you're calling out and it'll be the end of your pride!

 

[Jeepngli]

Could? Have

ha. I have no problem getting beat. Thats why I like running such little boost. But yea, thats why I hesistate with a calling out plate. Haven't heard or seen any decent LS's yet since I've been here tho.

 

[Captainstr8edge]

Ok, us south shore guys need to figure out a meeting spot/time. Any ideas?

 

[S197gt07]

Didn't that mall work out for you guys last time?

 

[Captainstr8edge]

Yeah, just seeing if anyone else had something else in mind.

 

[Wicked Pissah]
