You don't even need a Girlfriend when you have an SRT-4! They do everything...EVERYTHING!

[Glick]

Congrats on the purchase. So what's in the ACR package on these cars other than BBS wheels?

Im interested also :mrgreen:


Nice purchase man. Ive got a thing for OB. Wish I could have found one.

[Vypurr]

So I took my dad's car out today to go to work. i forgot how fun these cars are to romp on!

[Chris_PA]

oo noessss air bag seats

They are actually really comfy, but viper seats are def on my list
I loved those seats

[CTk20z]

damn that blue srt4 is actually pretty damn nice! im loving the picture too!

[SpoolinDSM]

I really like the blue one you had, reminds me of matt jestins old one, the pictures you took of that thing are amazing.

how do you know him? do i know you?

i've known him and Chris for like....13 years...:eek:

[Chris_PA]

Dan is VTEC done?

[SpoolinDSM]

how do you know him? do i know you?

i've known him and Chris for like....13 years...:eek:

Through my friends. Do you know Pete Yarnall? He has a blue wrx Cf hood, konig wheels? I actually know matt more through Ross Ellis, he has a blue A4, do you know either of them?

I actually might have seen you before, were you ever up at 202 wawa with matt? I'm trying to remember if there was ever a teg up there but I only remember the STI and the NSX that was with him.

[SpoolinDSM]

Chris, what kind of camera do you use?

[90IntegraC1]

yeah i know pete a little....i like that wrx, clean as hell.

i know ross too, he's got that huge ass truck lol, i think he lives in Delaware, don't quote me on that though....

I have hung out at wawa/wendy's with matt before...don't really go there too much anymore, might go again when it gets nice outside.

Chris-A/C was removed today, as well as pointless emissions lines to clean up the engine bay a bit, oh yeah, cruise control was removed too.

The LS head is being taken off tonight, then lsvtec officially begins.

May not be done for the meet on sunday though :cry:

[SpoolinDSM]

I have hung out at wawa/wendy's with matt before...don't really go there too much anymore, might go again when it gets nice outside.

Yea his wrx is clean, but I think it's a waste in his hands, cause he doesn't know anything about it or what to do with it.

And ross, ah ross.... let's see, well he has a 240sx, sitting, waiting for an sr, which he doesn't yet have the money for..... he has a maxima, sitting, waiting for a new tranny...But he does have a car that actually runs! It's a 1987 Caprice Classic lol or he either drives his dad's a4 or his moms Yukon
Oh and he lives on the PA side of 202 right next to the Subbie dealer.

Did you go to school with matt?

[Chris_PA]

Chris, what kind of camera do you use?

Canon 5D

baller

[90IntegraC1]

lol Ross.....

yeah i went to high school with matt, and i work with him at Mercedes of WC.

[SpoolinDSM]

Canon 5D

baller

Ick.. I dislike cannon, but hey, you sure do produce some sick a** pictures lol

I'm thinking of bringing my Nikon D1x to the meet, maybe you could show me a thing or two about picture taking.

Oh and how good are Tamron lenses? I have the XR Di but I don't know if it's good or not.

[Chris_PA]

Tamron is bleh
Nikkor lenses are awesome
Canon is better though:)

[SpoolinDSM]

Tamron is bleh
Nikkor lenses are awesome
Canon is better though:)

Eh I guess it's preference, because I think nikon is better lol But I could use an upgrade, the D1x is outdated lol

[SpoolinDSM]

Quick question, you obviously mess with the photo after it is uploaded to make it look like that, but, what do you do with like saturation and what not?

[Chris_PA]

levels, curves, and some color balance usually

[SpoolinDSM]

Thanks, I'll have to mess with some pics I have and see how they turn out.

[Albertrt-4]

ok enough camera talk! hahaha, welcome back to the srt world. Nice pick up with the acr, how many miles? thing looks bone stock.

- also to whoever said something about a part out, im interested as well

[Chris_PA]

Mopar rice plate - ordered

got it for 20 bones:)

[Vypurr]

HAha! I remember when they just came out. I think I paid $60 for mine, and was able to re-sell it for $50! lol

But I gotta admit, blowing off in reverse was fun!

[Chris_PA]

haha
my buddy had one
blows off so much

[Albertrt-4]

haha yea that was the first thing i bought when i got it because i was a noob, -20 vac damn thing blows off, I will admit though that ptp upgrade spring did make a world of difference and for 15 bucks it was def worth it

[Munky]

:supz: I too was a victim of the Blue Plate Special when I first bought my car. I was duped by the dealership tho. They threw one in for free cause the day I purchased the car I bought Stg1 and a Mopar STS at the same time. I guess they just wanted to get rid of it. Sold it for $45 bucks a few months later after it worked on my last nerve and I kept getting harassed by local turbo guys.:roll:

[04BlueSRT4]

HAHA I knew you would be back to the SRT world! Nice car Chris

[TTsupra911]

<--- is a victim of the rice plate. Got it for free though when installing an AGP pipe on a local member's car.

[90IntegraC1]

haha i love that blow off plate....blows off just above idle lol....nice pick-up.

match that w/ a CAI and you'll have constant noises to keep you occupied instead of music :)

[SRT42EnVy]

Nice to see you back Chris, now you need to get back in the 12's, i wouldnt have gotten a rice plate..lol. Should of got a real BOV lol. Get some springs too...cant wait to see it...

[Chris_PA]

for 20 bucks it will keep me amused enough until i start getting more money for a real BOV


Stage 1 didnt go down tonite

Gotta meet up another night

[Sberk06]

[boostedfury]

[SpoolinDSM]

[Chris_PA]

not really
but its a start

[Chris_PA]

PS'd a drop
Looks HOT!

[TTsupra911]

:thumbup: mopar S1 springs or goldlines would be perfect

[Chris_PA]

I thinking Stage 1:)

[Vypurr]

$500 for coilovers...Basically new! lol You can go lower than that if you want!

[TalonTsi97]

$500 for coilovers...Basically new! lol You can go lower than that if you want!

haha help him out and buy these. He has had them for way to long and giving them away at a great price.

[Munky]

Will what kind of coilovers?

[Vypurr]

Will what kind of coilovers?

IPP 36's.

[Munky]

IPP 36's.

:mad: nevermind I already have those horrible things on my car.

[Vypurr]

:mad: nevermind I already have those horrible things on my car.

Why does everyone say they are horrible? What was wrong with them? I used them for 3 months and never had a problem!

[Munky]

Why does everyone say they are horrible? What was wrong with them? I used them for 3 months and never had a problem!

I've had them for almost 2 years ever since I first met Ray and I can't stand them. I've rode in srt's with other coilover systems and I dred getting back into my car.

[Chris_PA]

This is by far the hardest thing I have ever installed on any car
I've taken off 2 TBE's and put 2 new ones on faster than this was installed

http://www.haknslash.com/pictures/chrispino/Random/riceplate.jpg

Also, Stage 1 is a now go
The kid I was gonna buy it from sold it
LAME

I'm thinking Stage 2 now

[TTsupra911]

yeah the blue plate, can be a major pain in the neck to install. Whenever I've touched the stock surge plate, I've had to reach from the passenger side of the car and go under the turbo and then come back up.

[Chris_PA]

OK, since my Stage 1 guy backed out, new plan:

Stage 2 w/o toys

[cxrock16]

the plate took me like 2 hours to get on that last screw took so long to get to

[Munky]

n00b.:screwy: :roll: :lol:

[cxrock16]

haha i know i know..

[Chris_PA]

I'm going to order exhaust soon
Should I go:
Needswings DP w/ E-Cutout
Maxxfab SEE
Maxxfab DP w/ Borla Catback

[Vypurr]

I have broken 3 E-Cutouts...

I wish I would have just bought a full exhaust in the long run.

[Chris_PA]

I think im going Maxxfab Mopar/Borla setup

[Chris_PA]

Stage 2 WGA: installed

17-14 with 0 PTB

Love it

Exhaust next

[SRT42EnVy]

Nice, go with the SEE, the Mopar restricts power, stay with 3". Needswings IMO is the best way to go, cheap and you get the most power.

[Chris_PA]

SEE is soo loud though

I wanna keep is medium loud and I wasn't super fond of my Needswings

Hmm
Single exit?
Not a fan of that too much either

[Munky]

I might have an Injen TBE for sale in the next week or so. Depends on if theres serious interest or not.

[scoogan]

Maxxfab DP w/ Borla Catback ftw

[Chris_PA]

Stage 1 or QW FMIC?

[scoogan]

stage 1

[Vypurr]

stage 1. You will need it if you ever plan on tuning with anything other than a standalone! Get it now and then build from there!

[Chris_PA]

The dick sold the S1

I FMIC is a steal, so I'm gonna pick that up
I don't have any mods to really throw codes yet so I'll pick up S1 next before exhaust

[Chris_PA]

1st post updated

[foss]

why does it have stage 2 before 1?

[Vypurr]

Because that is a part of the Stage 2 Kit. The Stage 1 that he was talking about is a replacement ECU. The Stage 2 WGA is a piece which goes onto the turbo.

I dislike the S2 WGA. The AGP is a much better piece, but both pretty much do the same things.

[Chris_PA]

I got the S2 WGA for 50 bucks so it's whatever

I'll evently upgrade, but for now I love having no PTB

[Chris_PA]

Bling blingg

tryna put it on tomorrow hopefully

What happened?

[Chris_PA]

Front mount went on without too much of a hitch
Put new boost gauge in

Now I have a short
No headlights

I'm pretty sure I know where it is, but I'm out of fuses

[Munky]

DoH! What boost gauge you install that it blew fuses?

[Chris_PA]

Well I had some ****ty Glowshift gauge in and it rattled so damn much

I put a new stocker back in
I need a 30/30 bad

[Chris_PA]

Oh and the boost gauge didnt have anything to do with the short

I think I sandwiched a wire when I bolted up the FMIC

[Vypurr]

Are you lookin to sell the stock FMIC? I think I might have a buyer if you are.

[Chris_PA]

Hmm
Possibly

[Chris_PA]

New pics in 1st post

Lemme know what ya think

[boostedfury]

intercooler looks awesome man...o and u coming to memorial day in two weeks let me know

[Chris_PA]

[Chris_PA]

Few updates:

Finished school

Should ship out real soon

C/O's are next

[CHAOS]

sounds great chris!

[Chris_PA]

Thanks man
It's been real slow with not being able to work all year

Hopefully I'll get a good amount of $$$ this summer

[foss]

Sounds mean. Got any plans for it?

[SpoolinDSM]

You need a drop and some bigger wheels! What size are the wheels you have on right now?

And where are you working?

[Chris_PA]

Like I said, C/O's are next

Wheels are staying
Might even go down to 15's (Trak Lites)

We'll see

[jh95zenki]

coilovers and 15's = sex

do it

[Chris_PA]

also lots of $$$$

[SpoolinDSM]

Like I said, C/O's are next

We'll see

Oh, I didn't know what C/O's meant lol Now I feel stupid lol

[TTsupra911]

Chris, what's making you jump to CO's with the ACR suspension. You already have the dampness adjust ability, so why not just throw a set of springs on?

[Chris_PA]

I had springs on the blue on and it rode like total ****

I figure I'll just do it right the first time this time

[TTsupra911]

fair enough... wanna buy my Mopar S3's :lol:

[ThePrimerSuspect]

if you wanna sell the acr suspension let me know.

[Chris_PA]

fair enough... wanna buy my Mopar S3's :lol:

[Chris_PA]

Will do man
Hopefully by summers end I will have them for sale

chris let me know when you are ready and what you are looking for i can get you a sick deal on teins.

[Chris_PA]

Yea?
Sweet

Hopefully by mid-august I'll have the cash

How much do you guys charge for a baseline dyno pull?

[Buster]

chris let me know when you are ready and what you are looking for i can get you a sick deal on teins.

I would have figured you for IPPs. Thank you too man, someone else rollin on little aftermarkets!

[RayArroyo]

I would have figured you for IPPs. Thank you too man, someone else rollin on little aftermarkets!


ipps are good but ever since i no longer work for them their current support sucks!!! as far as being rebuilt spare parts etc. if i had to do it now it will be teins all the way.

[TTsupra911]

How much?

They are still on the car and more then likely wouldn't be ready to come off until late summer, but I'm going to be looking for around 900

[Chris_PA]

That's when I'd have the money too?
Def let me know

Why selling them?

[TTsupra911]

That's when I'd have the money too?
Def let me know

Why selling them?

To be honest with you I'm switching to the BC's. I'd like a little more adjustability for auto crossing and the camber plates fit it perfectly. Plus I'd like to get a slightly higher spring rate for them since the car is no longer my DD. I'll let you know when I'm getting ready, or just go ahead and shoot me a PM then if your still interested. As of right now I'm going to wait until after the season, but if it's towards the end I've got no problems.

[Chris_PA]

Sounds good dude
Think I can go as low as I PS'd that picture with the S3's?

[TTsupra911]

You may be able to go slightly lower then what I have them, but I has having issues with cutting my tires while auto xing so I raised them a hair and kinda rolled my fenders.

[Chris_PA]

Maxxfab 3" catless DP just came

I gotta go to a wedding now
Should be on tomorrow

[Calvinball]

sounds mean man! srt 4's have such a mean sound for a 4 cyl

[Albertrt-4]

Exhaust sounds great man!

[Chris_PA]

Thanks dudes

Sounds soo much better in person

Picking up a Forward Motion WGA tomorrow
Ditching the S2 WGA

[Chris_PA]

Got the Forward Motion WGA
Much better than my Stage 2 WGA

With the S2 I was spiking 16 and dropping all the way down to 11 by redline

With the FM WGA I spike 17 and hold 14 to redline, still on stock vac lines


http://www.haknslash.com/pictures/chrispino/wga.jpg
Oh, and my heat shield is mangled:-p

[SpoolinDSM]

Good stuff. What wga did jestin used to run?

[Chris_PA]

AGP
Same one I had on my first SRT

AGP's are nice and all, but my FM was only $75 compared to th $165 AGP

[mr_eh]

get a bigger turbo, so much fun

i blew off my hotside pipe fri night and had to drive sat morning for 20 min on turnpike, it was never so difficult to get up to 100mph before =P

[Chris_PA]

If I do, it will be S3 for sure
But, that's no time soon at alll

[SpoolinDSM]

AGP
Same one I had on my first SRT

AGP's are nice and all, but my FM was only $75 compared to th $165 AGP

Damn, that's a deal considering it's better. The AGP was just shiney lol

[Chris_PA]

So now onto the problems
I heard a lot of people say to run the FM WGA off of stock lines, so I did.
Then this morning I decided to try and run the vac lines like this to see if I could hold more than 13/14lbs to redline
http://i7.tinypic.com/2mg6pt2.jpg

I had them set-up just like that
Black lines removed and the green line from the turbo to the WGA
Went out to test it
Only boosted 5-6lbs at most
Tightened the WGA, same boost
Tightened it all the way, same boost

Said **** it, went back to stock lines
Now it only boost 13lbs at most even with the WGA all the way tight

How should they be hooked up for a quick spool and minimal PTB


My set-up is:
FM WGA
FMIC
Full exhuast
Stock air box w/ drop in
Stock surge valve

[Chris_PA]

Help me make a C/O decision

Should I pick up some IPP's (non-dampening) from a local guy for $320 or wait to get some new Tein Basic's

[TTsupra911]

I haven't exactly heard the best about the IPP's, so I'd personally hold out, but for $300 you can't really complain...Hell you could prob sell those one's for the same price if not more once you have the cash for the Tein's

[Chris_PA]

That's what I'm thinking

I think I'm gonna go for it

[Chris_PA]

So I picked up some IPP non-dampening coilovers for $300
They are pretty much brand new (3k miles) so I couldn't pass them up
http://www.photodump.org/stored16/Jul28_0002.jpg

I'm gonna try and get them on for the August 12th WC meet
Not sure if I will be able to
I leave for FL the 4th and get back the 11th

I might try and throw them on wed/thurs this week if I feel like it after work

If anyone wants to come over and help, feel free:mrgreen:

[SpoolinDSM]

Damn, that's a good deal! Your car is gonna be badass after the drop.

[Vypurr]

Make sure to ask if the adjustment rings spin freely! And make sure that they include the spanner wrenches!

[Chris_PA]

All the rings spin real nice

What wrenches are those
The ones in the picture on the bottom right?

[Chris_PA]

Damn, that's a good deal! Your car is gonna be badass after the drop.

It should look something like this:
http://www.haknslash.com/pictures/chrispino/acr/PS/1.jpg

Then by late August I should be tinted and hopefully have my wheels powdercoated black so it should look like this:
http://www.haknslash.com/pictures/chrispino/acr/PS/fm4dropblacklipwing.jpg

Then once I find a OB trunk w/o the wing holes it'll look like this:
http://www.haknslash.com/pictures/chrispino/acr/PS/fm4dropblacklip2.jpg

[Honest_Bob]

sexy! I LOVE orange. Is that a small lip spoiler on the trunk in the last pic?

[Chris_PA]

Yea, its a ****ty PS job

It's called AVS downdraft
Makes the ass end look so sexy

[Chris_PA]

Got tinted today @ Shades of Gray
15% all around
Ryan and Damon are great guys who run an awesome shop
I can't say enough about the customer service and quality
Best place around to get tinted IMO

Got home and threw on my IPP Coilovers
The rears need to be lowered about a 1/2 inch more, just didnt feel like doing anymore on the car tonite

Let me know what you think
Pics are with my PnS, I'll do a full shoot later on

Actually haven't driven it yet
Looks great though:)

[TROLL]

lookin good... def agree about dropping the rear to match the front. did you find a wingless trunk or just take your spoiler off and have holes left behind? wingless ftw :)

[Chris_PA]

Rocking the holes:)

Tomorrow I'm gonna drop the rear more, install shorter rear endlinks and wash her up

[the4g63]

That looks awesome. I've never seen one in that color.

[namdoogwerdna]

Also, I've gone though about 4 Autometer gauges (2 stockers, 30/30 Phantom and a 30/30 CF) so I picked up a Defi Blue Racer Gauge

Pretty much done with the car for now
Trying to save up and get a place now

[Chris_PA]

Got the gauge installed

Now just need to do the blue light mod so it matches the rest of the instrument panel

.................i wanted that trunk

[Chris_PA]

I traded my CF trunk and AVS for the color matched trunk w/o spoiler holes and the AVS and he gave me $100 on top of that
Cant beat that

My only complaint is that the AVS doesn't sit 100% flush, but I really don't care all that much

[scoogan]

I like that even better

[tavenger5]

Hey Chris, let me know when you're around west chester next, I wanna see your car in person :)

[D Money]

Christopher Pennsylvania. I would like you to take pictures of my car when it's finished. Thanks.

[Chris_PA]

Well, the car is done so to say
I'd like to do a lot more to it but I kinda lost interest in cars for the time being

So nothing new from me except maybe some pictures now and then

Got to start saving for a place and a new car after school

Anyway, here are the latest pics
