[MSP#735]

gonna miss this one.....sorry guys

[BLU BY U]

I'M in....!

[KYMP5]

i may slide out tomorrow morning and run down there. I was at a shop here in town until about 2 this morning watching 2 of my friends trying to finish the worlds first 4.3L turbocharged stroker motor in a 350Z. They wer finishing up the stereo and some of the little details. Look for a black 350Z that says Injected Performance on it and has a turbo the size of your computer monitor sitting in the front.

[pb4ugoout]

i'll be there in all my carbon fiber hooded glory. not showing but i'll be there. so i'll see you guys there

[brealmp3]

well i went and had a good time! what did you think? there were some nice rides this year. and some really fine women, but what i want to know is where are all these fine women in N.C.?

[pb4ugoout]

^^I saw your car in the parking lot. i was there was well. quite a few msp's representing! and how about that ass jockey with the 240 made up to look like a skyline. and it still have an SR20 motor in it. There were like 20 people all surrounding this car just in awe of it. I go over to the REAL skylines and there wasn't hardly anyone. for all the money he spent on making it look like one he probably could have just bought one

[Witchdoktor]

^ true. I did like the interior though

BLU and I didn't take any pictures, but I can tell you the engine bay looked pretty good. According to Ghost, her MSP is putting down about 260 whp.

[MSP#735]

hmmmm.... cleaner than mine? hehe

[Uturnman]

hmmmm.... cleaner than mine? hehe


Oh, I don't know about that Jeff. You've been known to carry around a whole cleaning kit for your car on your trunk (not many people do that (boom05) ) LOL

[MIA protege]

[MSP#735]

transformers, more than meets the eye!

[MIA protege]

that acura was just insane

[brealmp3]

that acura was so bad ass. makes me glad blaupunkt is one of my sponsors!!! i was loving the neon's.. i like how they tucked them back away in the corner. who won best mazda?

[Witchdoktor]

who won best mazda?

one of the RX-7s

[pb4ugoout]

there was a red one in the back somewhere puttin down 482HP. it was red. looked pretty good. there was also one with a porsche front end. it looked a lot like ameyima or whatever his name is, it looked like what he does. only person i've ever seen do that

[Drmdriver03]

I forgot.... i was wondering why there was so many imports riding down 74...

[ssmp5]

Here's some. Got to meet Ghost and his wife but nobody else. Pretty good show but was very surprised to not see a whole lot of girls posing with cars. WTF!! Most be a N.C. thing or somethin'. Hawaii show's are way more interesting if that's what your into. Seemed to be alot of "Daddy's cars" in the parking lot and not alot of real street cars worth looking at. I guess I have to wait for the summer car shows and meets to see something interesting. Overall it was a fun time and worth gettin' out of Elizabeth City!!

[laracroft]

It was good too meet alot of you guys in person. And for those I hadnt seen in a while, it was good seeing you again again too. Danny, I'm just glad you got that car in there man, Todd was having the same problem with fuel and had to drive around a bit too. lol And here's a pic of the engine bay and front mount:

[mp5smuggler]

looks nice laura sorry i had to miss it but you cant show a car that is in the shop gettign finished. how did you do? did anyone in protuner win anything?

[ghost]

We didnt get anything this year. The competition was fierce. Jay Laub brought his 2 RX7s(amazing) and there were others as well. It didnt seem fair to me for Lara, Mia, and witchdoktor to have had to compete with guys like Jay and some drift cars that are fully sponsored, these cars had more than 50g's on them.

All in all it was an awsome time. Mia, and Wich's cars were nice. I finally got to see a couple of turbo 3rd gens INSANE!!

I had some really strong competition, but I will be back with a vengance next year. Im moving to FL in 2 weeks, and I know I can find everything I need to compete with the other Acuras here in NC in Miami.

[laracroft]

Yeah, there'll be other great shows in Florida that we'll be going to besides HIN. We did miss ya though. Hope the car is doing well.

[MIA protege]

yea those rx7s and rx8s were ridiculous. shows are getting old for me.

[brealmp3]

i should have my pics up in like 2 hours!

edit: ok maybe not i forgot the smart card reader for the computer.

[aftershock63]

HAHA eat this I got to drive this car http://www.msprotege.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=46329
and the one next to it makes me wish I had money.

Taji Das the owner of the acura almost lost to Jay laub the RE Amenia (sp) orange RX-7 it was a tough desison. But watch out for jay he has a fortune NSX and the new fortune RX-7 coming out by the end of the year.

Best mazda went to Jeff retuchi with this RX-7 http://www.msprotege.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=46331

elite and pro elite cars are not eligable for manufacture awards at HIN events
