New Member needs install help!

[captainshen]

Hello All! I am a new member to these forums, and I just wanted to say hi to everyone. I've had my G for over half a year now, but I just started to mod her. She's a 2003 Desert Platinum Coupe. Her name is Galicia. I've gotten 50% Madico tints and have installed a MD 5/16 plenum spacer and clear corners and piaa bulbs. I'll get pictures up eventually, when spring break comes (I'm a college student) and I finish putting on my smoke tints and get around to washing my car.

oh on the note of spring break, I was wondering if anyone is in the Los Angeles area who can help me install a couple of things, preferably on the week of march 15th. I'm looking at getting a UR pulley set and I picked up someone's vertical doors, but I dont have the guts to even touch either of these. So I'd be willing to pay someone to help me out with this stuff, instead of taking it to a shop. If you have experience, that is. Trying to keep the money and experience in the community, right?

Anyway. Long time fan, new poster, so hopefully you'll hear more from me.

Hang tight and hopefully there is a member here in your area that will be able to lend you a hand.

Uh oh...lambo doors??

Hahahah. Yea I figured i'd get that reaction for the lambo doors. I dunno, I guess I wanted to stand out, since most people hate them and would never put them on their babies.

I have the tools, but I've never touched either. And frankly, don't really approve of either...

Sorry bro.

[G_whizz]

Sooo you won't help him with Lambo doors cause YOU don't approve??

That's just gay Nate

[captainshen]

hahaha thanks nate. I appreciate it. BTW my grounding kit is doing great.

Actually I was kind of wondering, why not the pulleys? I've heard good and bad things about them. Who's right?

Sorry. If you really want the help, I'll help, but Lambo doors on anything other than a lambo make me cringe.

As for the pulleys... The potential to ruin your engine always scares me. If you do decide on them, go for the better known companies. It's unfortunate that the gains come from the crank pulley and not mostly from the accessories. Running just the accessory light weight pulleys would be awesome and pretty low risk. I think the full UR set shaves 4.5 lbs off of the total rotating weight.
