Phoenix Gold Phorum

Was down at my local auto wrecker today, found and bought this. Will get it looked over!

Found this after searching "all of craigslist" for a couple years. my face was stolen a long time ago & since I originally paid $40 for my 3339 I just couldn't pay $300+ for one on ebay. Got this one for under $150 !

What is really nice is it includes both din & the other plug for the face depending on how one wishes to install it.

If any one knows where I may find the manual for this I'd appreciate it.

My latest purchase....

That would make a nice dayli over here as well! Good luck and enjoy driving it!

Couldn´t resist and bought a new used car last weekend.

520i touring built 08/2001 5spd manual and fully loaded with options.

I love the new car. Sweet ride.

I thought you had a bimmer wagon already?

after some research about my new welding hobby I started too suspect that the fumes from it had been the cause of my bad fall. I started welding in aug and have been hospitalized 4 times since normally the day of/after I had been welding. Never thought about it since you never see anyone with resperaters. Was looking for a cheap option as the resperator I have and use would not allow my helmet to go down all the way. After some thought though I realized finding the cheapest option for safety gear wasn't a good idea and realized I was going too have too break open the wallet to do it right and safely from now on. Was happy too find this Miller papr setup on ebay for less then half its retail saying gently used. Was more then I wanted too spend but when I got it I don't think it was use much, if at all. The filter is completely white an the helmet cushins still has writing on them. The resperator/fan is on the belt and if forces air through a heap filter through the hose to the top of the helmet and blows down my forehead. It creates a positive pressure in the helmet to keep any fumes around it out, also is a nice cool breeze. Its louder then I would like and the cloth area around my face will take some getting use too but its osha rated and should last a while I hope.

Had one, but the old Diesel powerd one gave up after 380000km.

Great welding gear and finally we don´t have to look at "THAT" goatie anymore!

I had been thinking of shaving it for a while when one afternoon putting my coat on I got it caught in the zipper. shaved it that afternoon.

My Christmas present.....A set of take off 20" wheels and tires off a Silverado LTZ. Beats the hell out of the drab 17's that came with the truck when I got it.

Nice pic. I love your truck. Nice job.

My front porch was looking like a freight terminal for a minute there earlier today.

Alpine CDE 7831 for $15 off CL. I'm not familiar with the Alpine stuff apart from the obvious old school flagships, always wanted one when they were the definitive players. Figured I'd take a shot hoping this was a nice one, really just wanted something with a working tuner and a knob vs buttons for volume, and didn't want a bunch of bells/whistles. Not made in Japan (China) so probably not the score I hoped for but it will do what I wanted.

MS275 for $35 shipped off CL. Needs recapped, seller seemed knowledgeable and I think he just wanted it to go to a good home instead of collecting dust. Said its been in his closet for 7-8 years. There's a few nicks in the finish, still looks really clean from a few feet away though. If I can find a deal on another clean white one, I want to try one each bridged to my front stage. Not anytime soon because its like the Arctic tundra outside here. About to open it up later today and see how she looks.

Fluke 115. Its their baseline meter. Got sick of having to bring the discount brand one home from work or not having it at home when I needed it or when something popped up. Plus that one has been riding in another guy's truck for years and who knows how accurate it is at this point. I think these things pay for themselves in the time they ultimate save you when troubleshooting anyway.

Now just need my new Hakko station to show up, my goal is to have all my 1/2 finished repair/tweak projects that have piled up over the past year or so done by the 15th, unless work picks up again.

My latest purchase...good time to buy (not a good time to sell), just got about a foot of snow...

Put some spiked tires on it and have at it!


Been wanting this since the car was new in 94 and I raced another supercharged mustang.



Really happy with the deal. Was purchased and never installed so its a complete kit with everything in it. The power pipe was used before but that doesn't matter to me. Got it for $1500 less then any retail price I could find online.

Purchased a nice item for the mancave!

Nice Ajaye. Sweet deal on the MS275 and the Alpine. Alpine HU + PG MS series = two great combinations. I don't know anything about that model Alpine but for that price, I don't think you could have gone wrong?

so I had my money set aside for the super charger kit to get a new one when I lucked out and found the exact kit I was looking for with the same power pipe used but NIB for $1500 less then any place I could find it. I decided to blow some of the money saved there on something else I had been wanting for a while, but just didn't want to write the check for. Kindigit designs smooth door handles. I wanted to shave the handles originally but I like to go to the track occasionally where it would not pass tech, and just the general safety of not having door handles. So instead I got these.

I will also be shaving the door locks.

That's exactly what I thought. Its not a homerun but its better than my current preamp+ipod only setup so we'll see. I have a zx350 I'm about to recap as well, it would look sweet with the zx sitting between 2 white MS275s. Hopefully I can find another one for a good deal.

So does the kit put the intake charge right from the compressor into the manifold? No intercooler in other words?

I stopped by walmart last night as its still the only place you can get bullets, and still only 3 boxes or 150 at a time. There have been a few days that I wanted to go shoot but didn't have ammo... I even broke down one day and bought a box of bullets at the range and I will never make that mistake again. As I forked over 20 for the $50 rounds(cursing at the dude in my mind the crook) last time he informed me that they have some really tough primers and I might have to pull the trigger twice while trying to shoot them, and if they didn't shoot after the 2nd pull that they are great experience for clearing a jammed shot............ I didn't have any misfires but I did have 2 jam on me so needless too say I swore I would never make that mistake again and was relegated to hoping wally world would have some. So yesterday I stop in and do that stupid little happy dance that ANY gun owner now makes when he sees they have bullets(its a cross between a drunken redneck and a kid on Christmas with a touch of superbowl touchdown celebration thrown in). So then after going through the electronics dept and having them page someone too the ammo case, 10 mins later I went through the kids/toy section looking for someone because of course that is right next to the outdoor/gun area but still could not find anyone. I eventually went back to the automotive area and asked one of the mechanics and go figure he had the key... So finally I get the case unlocked and have my 150 rounds picked out when I notice something on the bottom - Wait what is that?! THAT is a box of 1200 9mm rounds.... bring on the zombies. Its the first time I have ever bought a brick like this of ammo and I found last night that there the worries of the world seem a bit further away when you have 1200 rounds to use as a footrest....

this is currently being shipped

What is that?!

6 channel amp. Wasn't that right before they made the switch to ryval?

That's a slick looking unit. Nice score Itchy.

Looks like the Octane amplifiers, could have been a prototype?
