I got my Spicy Orange...woohooo

[pates03]

About time i got my MSP. I've been reading these forums for months now and I came across the car almost a year ago before the went on sale but here it is in my parking lot.

Also my brother (which owns a stang gt 2003 running mid 13's i believe) is gonna help me do some light modding to my car. So far he wants to put a down pipe with a 2.5cat, CAI , BOV and HID for my headlights and Fog lights. If anyone can hlep me out where i can find the best items for cheap i would appraciate that :)

Any hints and ideas would help =)

Anyways here are some pix of my car

Damn this can get so confusing (http://pic8.picturetrail.com/VOL254/1490703/2844759/34703613.jpg)

Congrats!!! Enjoy the car.

[pates03]

yea thanks, im just figuring how dark i should get my tints!

[pates03]

even after the flash should i get the cold spark plugs? just a question thats in my head

[122 Vega]

Yes, even more important to prevent detonation.

35% in my sig.

Britt

[pates03]

all around correct?

[2K3 MSP]

A few pics of my tint.
6% in the rear, and 50% up front I believe.

[pates03]

wow you have one SICK MSP, does the springs void the warrenty? haven't read the book yet!

nice tinting , me like

[traitorhound]

i dunno if like the 50% up front. . .the change in darkness is too much. . . coudn't you get like 20. ..but isn't it illege to have any tint in CA in the fronts?

[jonnydoe48]

cant tint the fronts at all in CA. you are only supposed to get 35 in the back too. i guess the variance makes it look "legal" heh.

[pates03]

i want to tint the front but slightly though

[2K3 MSP]

That's kinda what I was hoping. I had 35% up front on one of my older cars, and got picked off within the first month. My dad had 50% on his car for years without even getting hassled. A little lighter in the back wouldn't have hurt, but I don't like the fact that people could see in.

[122 Vega]

Mine is 35% all around. It is legal in Oregon, but I really want to get the winshield done 80-85% and that's not legal. We used to do it on our old cars and it really helped with night glare and horrible sunny days. (yes we have a few up here)

i'm the same way, since i'm going to Gainesville for college very soon and will have roomates, i could always use the MSP as a love den ;) :)

[traitorhound]

awesome. . someone else in g'ville. . . .
i have mine 35 up front and 20 in the back. . . .the tint job could have been better and i bitched at the shop for like 2 weeks and it's acceptable but not as good as a formula one dealer could have done it (but cost a shitload more)

i decided to stay the legal florida limit. . .i really only got it cause it's way too damn hot in FL and the tint helps a lot

pates03: when you coming up here?

[pates03]

Well by the first week of october I should be there with two buddies of mine. We are gonna rent at Santa Fe Point Appartments and go to Santa Fe CC for 1 and a half then go to Firefighter college.

I can't wait for the white women =). To many latina girls here in miami....

[traitorhound]

wild yo

im here at UF and being pre-med is kicking my ass

[traitorhound]

i want a msp. . .they cost less than what i got my p5 for back in dec

[pates03]

FOR REAL YOU GO TO UF,

i was just there last week checking out the city, we stayed at a hotel near Archer Street. Wow the school is fking HUGE. Bro you gotta show me around, kinda confusing at first

btw what color msp are u looking into

[traitorhound]

i not getting one. . im poor. .and im pretty happy with my p5

[pates03]

do you live at the dorms or at some apartments?

[traitorhound]

i live in an apartment really close to campus
last year i lived in the dorms and i didnt' realy like it cause it was out in BFE. .. .Lakeside it's like on the other side of campus. ...lol where i live now is so much closer

[Black Majik MSP]

I got 20% all around & I think it looks great, but it's not too dark to be able to see out at night (most of the time). Oh & if you want a really good love den (not like I would know), get a car cover...it's even better than limo tint.

ROFL (lol)

[traitorhound]

wild yo

[traitorhound]

man i gotta get up at 6am to go work out. . eh. . .time to go to sleep

[pates03]

Damn that sucks. I was gonna get the apartments at Campus Lodge but me and my friends are deciding to do it next year, b/c of the 500monthly payments

[traitorhound]

damn campus lodge. . that place is expensive and far away. . .if you are going to sfcc. . why not something closer to there. . like melrose or somethign

[pates03]

We're moving to Santa Fe Pointe, which is across the street, but i heard that Campus Lodge is a fun place for college students, they throw there own parties, girls are plentiful ;-) and its nice


btw are you a gator fan? hope not , but i'm a Big UM fan and with my orange color wow i think ppl are gonna hate me up there!:(

[traitorhound]

man ther are mad parties at like every apartment complex. ..that's just hte nature of this town . . .yea girls are plentiful. . i wish i wasn't tied down (hopefully my gf isn't reading this j/k)

[pates03]

thats coo, hopefully its a chill place up there, so far what i've heard its allllllllllll goooooooooooood !

[traitorhound]

sweet

[pates03]

one quick question, is it hard to find a job right now?

[traitorhound]

i just started working at tijuana flats on university like a week ago. . if you don't mind restaurants then there is a job for you. . .pita pit is a bad ass place to work. . .the chicks that work there are like super fine, and if you work the bar rush at night then there are the hot drunk chicks taht come in too

trying to find a job at a retail store or anything of that matter will probably be hopeless since all those jobs got filled at the beginnign of the school year (august). .lol ive been applying to the gainesville best buy for liek 2 years now .. .it sucks

[traitorhound]

i tried to not do pizza delivery. . its a lot of money but i don't wanna fuck up my car and get crazy miles from driving around town. . .my roomate does 160 miles a night when he delievers for dominoes here

[pates03]

no way i won't deliever, but rest. jobs does sound good for me, i went to the bar on last monday called The Swamp, wow the ladies !!!!!!!!!

[traitorhound]

yea pita pit is right across the street from the swamp and tijuana flats (where i work) is a block away

[pates03]

nice, hopefully i can get a job ASAP that would pay for my rent. Since my parents got me a MSP i'm trying to help out as much for paying the rent and hopefully pay SFCC on my own

[traitorhound]

yea that's why i work. . .. come home smelling like fried tortillas every night. .... but at least i got bright futures

[pates03]

you know whats funny my friend is Mexican and he caters Mexican food here in Miami, maybe he can get a job there as a cook....i gott look for an italian place!

[traitorhound]

man he best not steal my job. . im still training at tijuana

[pates03]

hopefully not, i doubt it he's gonna find a job near UF, most likely he's gonna look for a job around SFCC,

damnnnnnnnnnnnn i wannnnnaaaaa moveeeeeeeeee already !

[traitorhound]

what is it . .like 400 miles. . .jsut take 75 the whole way?

[pates03]

yea its around 400 ish miles, we left like at 1 in the morning and took us like 4 and half hours to get there, going 100+ all the way up there.....my msp doesn't have Cruise Control =(, we took I-95>Florida Turnpike>I-75

got that from mapquest.com

[traitorhound]

there are like assloads of cops around gainsville right by that exit. . just watch out there and your cool the rest of the way

[pates03]

yea my friend almost got caught but he hit the brakes quickly enough for him to hide beside the van on his right.....

[traitorhound]

so any mods planned for the beast?
(besides other than already stated)

[pates03]

well my brother is gonna be my offical sponsor,

he might get me some HID's, Down-pipe, CAI , TT and hopefully a BOV

Hopefully, i just need to drive better!


EDIT: Maybe by 2 years from now, i'll have a full turbo exaust with a FMIC

[traitorhound]

i wish i actually had money for performance mods

[pates03]

i don't really have no money, but he does and since he's into racing and all where i'm not really into it but what the heck he wants my car to go fast so he's gonna helpme out finacially@!
