Man I missed the cruise. About 6 of us guys were waiting at the parking lot. We saw a whole group leave and we asked some peeps where they were going and they said home. Then we find out that the "leader" of our SC cruise had a wiring problem(s13chica...cough). Oh well glad that it was just a ground thing. Hey so what's the deal on the white car in the tow truck? did you get your car taken for speeding?????? It was awesome meeting you guys. I have like 30 pics but no where to upload em too. Thanks to one of the guys(I suck w/ names) who had his brother there. Drove back to their house and gave me a replacement front signal for $1!!! What love. hehe. Fun times guys.

Yar, good meet even though I got lost and went to SanJo and got there an hour late. Good to see everyone and their cars again. gotrice240sx good to see your cars out of the shop, looks great, hopefully youll get it all fixed up soon.
Ive never been on that hwy 9 drive before but that was awesome, lots of fun. Whoever was in the green s14 with the kouki front end behind me on the 2nd leg of the drive almost ate **** when we were going around a tight right hand turn and I gotta give you props for staying alive. Looked pretty crazy from where I was sitting "Whens the next meet?" Haha, later. |

*shakes head*
thx247: haha, you actually posted that pic of the harness. LMAO! thats kinda wrong dude.
but it should serve as an example what not to do to your harness. and for the record: she didnt do that, somebody else messed it up. s13chica: heh, thats pretty funny that it was just the fuel though. We should have figured that one out with the quickness... but like I was telling someone else earlier, you never notice the obvious things... but ya, I hope that you dont have any more probs so you can hit DD7. get some video so I can see gotrice: dude that sucks about your car. but **** happens, you werent the only one that had trouble today! you are not alone mang all in all a cool meet. the pics kick ***. We need more! I saw like 5 or more cameras taking pics... post 'em up! cheers |

Hey chris...
I guess we were looking in the wrong place. When I got the car back home the fuel pump ground line was one of the last things we looked at. I do still plan on getting a new harness since the one I have is so sad i want to cry. I wish I could have gone on the drive too...I was really looking forward to that. Glad to hear your radiator flush cured the overheating problem. YAY! gotrice240-I was really nervous when the guy was putting my car on the flat bed, I thought my exhaust was going to die...I can't even imagine what you must have been feeling having your car towed home.

That's cool. The guy who put my car on the flatbed knew what he was doing as well. He brought out wood planks so that the car could get on the truck without scraping the exhaust.

I was one of the three blue fastbacks there. But mine was lowered in the front, front lip, gunmetal stock rims, and fadin paint. Well...alot of 240's are in my condition as in paint but my car also had lazy eyes on too.

I think you were behind me a few times on the freeway. I had the black s14 with gunmetal rims and polished lip. Stock exhaust and you could see where the 240sx emblem was on the back of my car.

thanks again thx247. Pics of S14 seats would be tight. The thing is about those brown ones; is that they probably look like my seats, but way cleaner and nicer. I want something to hold me in while i'm drifting. I have harnesses, but I dunno if they'll work good enough. One of my supra friends said he hates buckets though...any comments on that?

S14TiNMAN: Nice work, yea I only saw what was happening at the last second so I couldnt really tell what was going on.
Hah DRFT dont worry about it man, I was trying to stay in back on the highway in case there were any stragglers. Sorry to hear your car overheated, I was wondering what happened when you pulled over there. |

another couple of roads which i bet you would all LOVE are Empire Grade to Bonny Doon Road which takes you down to HWY 1 on the coast..
and there is also an option to take Empire Grade to Ice Cream Grade which then leads down to HWY 9 or HWY 17 depending on which route you take.. they are both great mountain roads..and ZERO cops..unlike the camero patrol on HWY 9.. |

sinful: The harness will work fine for holding you in the seat when drifting. I don't think its a good idea to wear a harness while driving on the street however.
EMT's are not expecting a harness, chances are most people don't know how to install a harness properly. Its not as simple as just bolting it in. For track events and auto x i think a harness is fine, at the track the tech should catch a poorly installed harness if you have one. |

Well i've heard the best way to do the harness is use the seat belt bolts for the bottom connectors. then for the rear is to connect it to the rollcage bar. However, if you dont have a rollcage bar you can buy a guide bar(which doesnt look very safe to me). And the last way, which i was thinking of; is to use the rear seat belt bolts for the backs of the harnesses. Now if i get into a crash w/ a harness i will be stuck, so if i flip, i'm screwed. And if i hit head-on i guess the way the harness is hooked up could give me paralysis. But I dont see how my stock seat belts are much safer. in an accident it will probably have like 2" more slack than the harness(not enough to dodge a roof collapsing. And people get back injuries all the time. Basically, i'll probably get a rollcage like the one s13chica has. But for now i'm gonna hook it up to the stock seat belt points(the best way to do it; because those spots are at least reinforced). If you have any "God damnn you moron" comments feel free to post em as long as you back em up w/ something that might scare me out of doing it. hehe. So do you have pics of those brown seats? i didnt look very close when i got the signal.
