Yes I too am Bit-A-Holic/Zip Addict.

JaMeZzZ122 10-31-2002 02:58 PM

Sniper596 10-31-2002 04:59 PM

favorism is a bad thing in a family.... but since it is your family which car you like the most? I like that fairlady z alot, sweet it is (y)

kam_pennzoil 10-31-2002 05:08 PM

that celica is sweet :D howd u do that? is it painted on?? ( the pattern)

Speed-D 10-31-2002 07:37 PM

Sniper, my favorite is also the Z. I just got it today and have been running it since I got it.

Kam, all of the white on the celica is paint. I masked it off with tape to get the straight lines. Although it was my first paint job so I had to scrape off some of the white that got in places that I didn't want. I then had to get some red paint and touch it up. On a close up shot you can see that a little bit. I have a windshield brow decal that I made. I just haven't put it on yet.

Well I gotta' get back to the family.

kam_pennzoil 10-31-2002 07:44 PM

ah, so it was originialy red? ill have a go at that it looks the bomb :D

Speed-D 10-31-2002 07:51 PM

Thanks man. Good luck and post pics when you are done.

kam_pennzoil 10-31-2002 07:58 PM

cheers dude :D ill get some up when i done it. doubt it will be as good as urs :rolleyes: you dont mind if i do the same colour scheme do you? il try to change the pattern :D

Speed-D 10-31-2002 09:07 PM

Hell, I wouldn't mind seeing the same design just executed better. That is you mission if you decide to accept it.

Oh, I also tinted the windows by painting them black on the inside.

kam_pennzoil 10-31-2002 09:11 PM

i choose my mission :D ill find the funds to get a celica body and then ill be real careful and try my hardest to make a good job of it!! :D

Speed-D 10-31-2002 09:36 PM

The mistake I made was I didn't make shure the tape was securely fastened down on the edges. Paint leaked under some of the tape. If I were to do it again I could get it right. It just seems a waste to do it over again.

kam_pennzoil 10-31-2002 09:39 PM

ok, ill remember to do that :D did u paint the white or spray it? any chance of a close up pic? :D

Speed-D 10-31-2002 10:06 PM

Just remember that it was my first paint job. And it needs some touch up. It is also my racer.

Oh, and I painted the stripes with a brush.

kam_pennzoil 10-31-2002 10:07 PM

cheers dude, some nice touches like the white skirt and door handle, nice work :D

Speed-D 10-31-2002 10:10 PM

Thanks. :cool:

kam_pennzoil 10-31-2002 10:16 PM

haha you think urs is good wait til u see mine :D mmmuuuhahahahahaha!! we should start up our own society lol :D

Speed-D 10-31-2002 10:29 PM

I can't wait to see it.:D

I haven't modded anything else on it. I run it with a 2.6 motor. Sticky tires in front and stock in the rear. It is still my favorite car to drive. Though I am learning how to drive my boosted Fairlady Z and I am starting to like it. It's all about the speed baby! :cool:

kam_pennzoil 10-31-2002 10:31 PM

lol, is there a schumacher in the making here?!?! :D

Speed-D 10-31-2002 10:45 PM

Actualy, I used to have a Black Acura (Honda depending on your country of origin) Integra GSR that I used to race in SCCA. I wish I could find that body for the Bits. I was no Schumi, but I strived to be. :D

Wait until you see the mod for the Black Celica. It will be "east bouned and down". :cool:

kam_pennzoil 10-31-2002 10:55 PM

yeh honda ( im in the uk) how did u do in the races? your right its a wicked body :D

Speed-D 10-31-2002 11:02 PM

I usually came in second (the first loser). The guy who always beat me had racing tires (vs. my street) and he had about 10 years experience on me. But he used to beat me by less than a second every time.

Then a drunk driver from North Carolina ran my car off of the road one night and totalled it. That F*ck Nozzel!:mad:

NorCalCoug 11-01-2002 01:02 AM

What kind of racing and which class? :) I do some work on the side for a guy who races in SCCA Pro Touring class..

Speed-D 11-01-2002 01:09 AM

Nothing that exciting.

I did Solo II or autocrossing. My car was totaled by some dumba$$ before I could get into wheel to wheel. That f*cking SOB. Why I ought to....:mad:

My class was G-stock.

Taigerr 11-01-2002 09:07 AM

Hey NorCalCoug... what make is your porsche BTW... its nyc!!

JaMeZzZ122 11-01-2002 02:34 PM

nice paint job...porsche is made by porsche if u talkin about real cars...im not sure if u mean real cars or r/c's

kam_pennzoil 11-01-2002 05:16 PM

no more racing then speed-d? couldnt you like clame off the insurance or something? :D

Speed-D 11-01-2002 08:12 PM

Insurance, what a racket.
 
Yeah, I claimed it on my insurance. they are the ones that "totaled" the car. It was fixable but not for what they wanted to spend. So f*ck them. they can have the car and good luck to them. Other circumstances dictated my next buying decision. (lack of funds):(

kam_pennzoil 11-01-2002 08:17 PM

i dont understand lol, did you get any money or anything?! cause it was there fault.....

Speed-D 11-01-2002 09:11 PM

Yeah, the money covered what I owed on the car. Then I was back to square one.

Other financial things came into play and I could not afford to buy another new fast car. So I now have a '91 Integra GS. It is too old and slow to race. But my business is doing better so sometime this year I will have another fast, new car. :D

kam_pennzoil 11-01-2002 09:16 PM

ah thats bad, i bet u were gutted u lost that car:mad: well i hope you find a nice new fast one and get back to your racing :D

Speed-D 11-01-2002 09:24 PM

RRRRrrrracing!
 
Until then, there are Bits/MicroSizers/Zip-Zaps.

Cheers, dude. (was that correct, I'm from the USA) ;)

kam_pennzoil 11-01-2002 09:26 PM

yeh,char-g about the close'st i get :D yeh, that was good! lol

Speed-D 11-01-2002 09:40 PM

Nice
 
Rock on! And if you are looking for a video game to play, try Grand Theft Auto: Vice City on PS2. I have a copy of it now and it is the best game since GTAIII! Although you may be too young to appreciate the music, but the game play is awesome!

kam_pennzoil 11-01-2002 09:44 PM

wow!!
 
wow!! you lucky guy!! im waitin for that to come out over here! wow, hehe i seen some screen shots and it looks ace :D im not goin to be dissapointed then?! p.s. can i use ur celica as my avatar?

NorCalCoug 11-01-2002 09:52 PM

Nice! I've always wanted to do autocrossing but I have to wait until I can afford better tires and some more suspension goodies for my car. :)

And the car in my avatar isn't a porsche, it's my Fairlady Z :)

Speed-D 11-01-2002 10:02 PM

yo, kam_pennzoil
 
I would rather you paint one of your own to use as your avatar. The only reason is, I haven't seen anyone with a paint job like that. I am, by profession, an artist and take originality and creativity very seriously. But you have the pic and I can't really stop you.

BTW GTA Vice City RULES!!!!
:cool:
