Did we ever come up with a new date for a big get together?

*GTAHVIT* · 12-18-2011, 01:10 PM

Looks like after the first of the year.

I've got a couple trips I need to take between now and then. But once I'm done we'll set it up.

Merry Christmas!

How the funds for the paint coming along, just got caught up on your build an I'm liking the side hash marks you did.

Barely coming. I did the hash marks in plasti-dip so I peeled them off a couple weeks later. I'm still working out designs so I haven't committed to anything yet. I definitely plan on using hash marks as the start of it though, I like the aggression they show

As of Thursday, Mina is officially one year old! It's hard to believe I've had her for so long already and driven her almost everyday since

Right now she sits with...wait for it...16,300 miles (I took a lot of trips). She's a little battered and bruised from run-ins with other jealous cars, but there's no mistaking her when she roars to life in the morning and flies by others on the freeway. I just wanted to take this moment to thank Garber Chevrolet again for helping me into my dream car and to this awesome community for helping me to make her my own.
I've been tossing around a few ideas on what to do next--from interior to exterior to performance--but for now I have to say I'm pretty content. There's no mistaking Mina for any other IBM in Jax, or in the country, and to me that's the most important part of it all

Also! I never got a chance until now to upload this but...thank you Becky from Rodgers Chevrolet! I proudly wear my lapel everytime I go out. Plus, it's a great icebreaker at a bar

So round one arrived today from...
ZAINO!
Yep, decided Mina needed a little more TLC so I took a dive and got the following:
Bucket/ Grit Guard
Zaino Total Protection Show Car Kit (she might be my DD but she feels like a show girl!)
(http://www.zainostore.com/Merchant2/...roduct_Count=2)

Here's some pics of the unboxing

I won't have time to dress her up until Saturday, so I'll be back to post then

Lycanine · 05-03-2012, 04:28 PM

Once again big shout out to Ivan @ Southwest Speed, I placed my order Monday and I already have my first package!
So my first package contains...a SLP 160* Thermostat!
I read around on the forum a lot and it seems this is a 50/50 issue. Ted at Jannety Racing gave a great argument but so did Slowhawk...so if either one of you comes across my journal, thanks for taking me in depth to the purpose and abilities of the different thermostats.
I sided with Slowhawk and purchased one. I live in Florida, and although Jacksonville is on it Northern border, it still gets pretty hot and with Mina being my DD, this was a small mod that could only help her in the long run.
Here are some pics
