Mini Meet at AAM, 2008-06-28

Iron Scimitar, Weeble1, i2vicious2 and ajcool2 showed up...

We managed to get most of the exhaust done on the Z31, the resonator installed in Merlyn's car along with the trans and everything to get her up and running again. AJ got his 1/2" MD spacer installed on his Z, and Iron Scimitar got his annoying little squeaking bracket removed. Josh...yea. I guess he got to break in his clutch a bit more.

Merlyn's car with the Cattman 3" prototype exhaust and the new 16" resonator: http://youtube.com/watch?v=VcSRivmN1i8

All images are linked to the full size version.

Group shots:







Damn law abiding people with their front plates...all except Iron Scimitar.

I have talked to them about it before... they will cover it under warranty even under drag racing circumstances... so yea, the only time they didn't fully cover an axle was on an altima that broke his like 8 times, they finally gave him his money back...

i talked to him in feb...he said that most people that ordered them were lowered and there is more stress on them on 02-03 (vs 00-01)...he said they kept going bad so he stopped making them and is working on a better design.

Btw, Weeble... you are selling the bike... so don't mention that

EDIT:

and it wasn't one he had laying around because the week before I called to see if he had any and he didn't... design looks the same aside from the diff length of the axle... My passenger side which I replaced 9 months ago has gone out, so I will be calling them on monday to either ship it back to them under warranty or what... not sure how it all works for them.

No problem. Easiest way to make $20 in 20 minutes, side jobs.

A pm, eh? What's this about?

I still say you need to get some FI for that thing, even if only a supercharger.
