hahah Pie, "in a couple weeks, if ralliart keeps his mind that could be 3! " (sorry didnt know how to use QUOTE buttom.) Dont worry, this time its for sure.

nice body Pojo ! wish i could smash up one of my bodies later.! haha jk

soooo Swavey, how about it? yes or no to a extra AM set for my friend. *remember, if you dont want to get it for WHATEVER reason, then dont. because i would like you to enjoy it there with some cash left over...ahha*

Today i went to my friends house to put my body(WRX), also his body(R34, both clones) into paint thinner. im gonna go over there tomorrow to check on it and hopefully scrub it off. We also attemped to fix my friends steering, hopefully we can do it tomorrow.

. Oh we also TRIED to use his treadmill as a Dyno tester. to see how fast (MPH) our clones can go on opposite direction while pressing forward....if anyone knows what i mean. But it failed, it kept on steering to the left.

VERY nice R32!

ralliart · #**186** 02-02-2003, 11:11 PM

hahah thx, but if you could get mine next week and take a pic...*uhhh beautiful* and have the feeling of fulfilment, just like what me and Pie experienced when we saw our Bit products,...that would be great!

or if you want to get it all at the same time then do whatever you please.

nghts · #**187** 02-02-2003, 11:18 PM

Swavey · #**191** 02-02-2003, 11:32 PM

lol, no.

Right now is Monday Afternoon (2:30pm)
Yeah I am usually pretty busy in the week, and we gotta drive slow to get to the city lately, cause of ****ty roads (japan sucks at winter.......) The roads have no ditches so its just pushed to the side, slowly making the road thinner over the course of winter, heh.... Half the roads get shut down.

But I have a hair apointment to go to the city next weekend. So I will look around for sure. Gonna chack some stores I have never been to.

I am online now, (for how long i dont know) sitting at my desk with nothing to do, the kids that i usualy work with are late today for some reason. (Swavey hopes they dont come today, heh)

nrmcj · #**192** 02-02-2003, 11:42 PM
