somewhat...for the duration that we are E.G. it is perfectly fine...only about one 1/8 mile section where it is bumpy..but no potholes...just like where roots grow under the road and make little bumps...the rest of the drive is on roads connected to E.G. and then on a road which leads down to HWY 1..this is the really fun part..save the best for last and all that...

in case anyone is wondering the vagueness of words is to preserve annonimity of the spots..

but to put the roads into perspective...i have TEIN HE's on my car and it sits maybe 2 or 3 inches off the ground and i don't scrape..

..so they can't be all that bad..lol

ootranceformeroo · 09-10-2003, 01:43 AM

Hey how do the HE's run? I have them too but do you get that front drivers side too when you hit a bump? Someone told me it could be the main bolt that olds the pillowball could be loose or something. Just not sure but I will be tightening them soon.

*Sil-Abc* · 09-10-2003, 01:53 AM

so about this meet....where's it goin to be and when?

i think you left out a word in your first question...lol..

but i am going to guess you are asking about a clunk or a knocking...and yes i did get it when they were first installed...basically the advice you got is correct...if you tighten the top nut on the fronts (the one inside of which sits the dampening adjustment or in other words the one which sits around the dampening adjustment..lol) then it will go away...just hold the spring in your hand and tighen it down as much as you can...it'll take care of it..

and as for the HE's themselves...i love um...plenty stiff on the track when i turn up the dampers and not horribly stiff with the damper on soft for around town driving...

dvdevo · 09-10-2003, 01:58 AM

yo sil abc.. goto chineseboi's bbq on friday.. look for his thread.

*Sil-Abc* · 09-10-2003, 02:02 AM

this friday...err...i might have work but ill see what i can do. hopefully someone can take my shift

ootranceformeroo · 09-10-2003, 02:02 AM

Hey thanks nokeone. FINALLY I can fix that problem! haha Ill let you know if it works...when it works...

driftcrazy · 09-10-2003, 02:06 AM

so whas up with this meet in SF yall. is it poppin or what. hit us up with the details. i think SF is better then santa cruz besides the fact its way closer to most of us.

ootranceformeroo · 09-10-2003, 02:09 AM

yeah as long as the santa cruise peoples are down. haha it will probaly be at GG park if thats fine with everyone? When are you guys free so we can make this a pretty big turn out?

*Sil-Abc* · 09-10-2003, 02:12 AM

what time and day should we do this best cuz if u think about it GG will be packed on sat and sun in the afternoon so parkin would be a ***** to do especially if we wanna find a completely empty lot just for us

ootranceformeroo · 09-10-2003, 02:13 AM

oh dam..anyone know of any other parks? BIG PARKS WITH BIG PARKING LOTS?!

SilABC - foster city...? John?

alright well its late and imma be out....be back tm!

s13chica · 09-10-2003, 02:20 AM

I'll look into parks this week, and let you know what I find....I'll try to find something closer to SF if possible.

*Sil-Abc* · 09-10-2003, 02:22 AM

yep. im guessin this is daniel cuz the sn is the same as ur email right?

If we have a meet over in SF, won't everyone get separated? i mean i go there all the time and if a friend is following, he'd get stuck in traffic, so if theres like 20+ cars i dont think we could really follow eachother or get there all at once or even find the place. Not trying to shoot this meet down but i mean you have to admit, gettin a meet in SF is really hard but when it does happen, itd be great.

stealthj · 09-10-2003, 09:56 AM

fine if u wanna have the meet before october 4th

HAVE IT before october 4th

nokeone · 09-10-2003, 12:26 PM

SF is just too crowded and too hectic...it doesn't have to be in Santa Cruz, if you want it closer to the Central Bay Area, but it should be in a city that is smaller...there's always Fremont with it's huge park...lots of parking...and BBQ pits already there...plus it's free...

the park is Fremont Central Park next to Lake Elizabeth...i've been to meets there before and they work wonderfully..and we never get hasseled...

just more ideas...

driftcrazy · 09-10-2003, 03:16 PM

yo it really dont matter to me whenever. as long as u can give me the date a week early so i can get the day off u know. i am always off on weekdayz so u know that will work too, but whatever yall agree too. jus hit me up.

RBS14 · 09-10-2003, 03:19 PM

None of you guys up in the city can bitch about how long of a drive it is to get down here to SC. It's only an hour, hour 15 if you drive slow.

I did it for the daly city meet. it was fine.

ootranceformeroo · 09-10-2003, 04:01 PM

Yeah I think so it should be fair if we have it more central. That way more people will come out b/c the drive wont be "long" for anyone. I would say Foster City because its small and the streets are pretty wide but theres a lot of cops around in FC.

Hmm...San Mateo, Redwood City, Santa Clara, San Jose...just going through some cities but not sure where to actually have it. (where we can meet) Does anyone know any big parks or any private areas we can hang out for awhile around there? Movie thearter parking lots? Anything?

SilviaNinja240 · 09-10-2003, 04:24 PM

How about that mini-golf/go-kart/arcade place in redwood city? Then we have something to do besides looking at SRs all day/night

kazuo · 09-10-2003, 04:36 PM

i think we need to meet up @ GGP in frisco and ****in play football or some ****. S13 Coupes and S14 vs Hatchbacks!

woot.

then we can drive down great highway and cruise down the coast... ;p

GGP is cool for parking as long as we make arrangements in advance for one of the pits and get there early... we can hog all the spots.

~bored at work!!!

*Sil-Abc* · 09-10-2003, 06:50 PM

heh. when do u plan to fix the other headlight? also i might need ur number cuz i might need to buy a deck and some speakers.

SilviaNinja240 · 09-10-2003, 07:01 PM

I think he already ordered another silvia front end, should be here fairly soon

dvdevo · 09-10-2003, 07:18 PM

i want speakers too

5xsoemthing's? just gotta custom mount them..

ootranceformeroo · 09-10-2003, 08:55 PM

redwood city Malibu? or Golden Gate Park? Those seem to be the choices now...unless we get more saying elsewhere. Malibu being the new one.

nokeone · 09-10-2003, 08:57 PM

i vote redwood city..it's nicely in the middle...

but are there any roads to drive spiritedly on around there??

ootranceformeroo · 09-10-2003, 08:59 PM

we can always go to the same ol' roads..just a bit of a drive.

nokeone · 09-10-2003, 09:07 PM

^^ sounds like a plan...i'll follow..

no one drive too close in case i spin out..lol..

..hmmm we'll put scott behind me..
