Re: 1997 Black GTP, Need A Little Help.

I went back and forth between the SSAC's and SD's, but after I learned that the SSAC's aren't stainless I decided SD's.

Just something to think about.
 
Re: 1997 Black GTP, Need A Little Help.

I'm happy with my SD. no fitment issues, they were a breeze. Flex is still not leaking after a year or so. i dont really remember exactly how long it's been.

SD on ebay runs out of stock all the time they always put stock back up. So if I were you I'd just hold out. Gives you more the reason to wait till march when I get up yonder. MK?

Stainless don't really mean jack on these, after one year and a winter, the downpipe is a nice brown/black color. The tubes coming out the manifold flange are still somewhat stainless looking, but more so a rainbow with some brown.

And then after they go through the rainbow stage and then the pretty golden brown stage, they just get ugly.

header paint them bitccches!!

Also ill help out if i can make it down in march, whats happening?
 


Re: 1997 Black GTP, Need A Little Help.

When i receive an email back from Speed Daddy, telling me when they will be back in stock, ill make my decision whether i wait or buy SSAC's right now.

Just depends on how long of a wait it will be.

Small update:

Replaced my old sticker i had with this on in Loving memory of my best friend that died.

P.L.K. is her name obviously: Paige Leigh Kuersten

Here is a picture of me and her, picture taken May 29, 2010:

2013-01-10_17-16-59_86.jpg


She died in a car accident in Indiana. I knew her ever since we could walk around in our Diapers.

I was with her almost every day of my life.

Man... do I miss her a lot.

Edit: If anyone is from Michigan reading this, that picture was taken in Ludington, Michigan on the city beach at the end of the Pier. This was the last night i ever spent with her.

Men have feelings too, im not going to try and act tough and just shrug off this incident. This was a life changer, and ill express my emotions about it with ease.

You took me wrong Dan, I meant it with empathy.
I'm sorry man.

Oh no no no.

I didnt mean to have a disrespectful response.

After re-reading it my response, i sounded a little harsh.

I apologize for that, i know what you meant and i appreciate it, truly.
 
Re: 1997 Black GTP, Little But Huge Update.

I'm so sorry Dan, she was a pretty girl. Death is never easy, I've lost so many family members in my life.

People can say what they want about being alone, but life is even more of a b*tch without family, it is a cruel harsh and lonely life. I've learned to embrace those you love and value you the time you have with them :) I'm here if you need anything
