Hey James, Do you know when the Turbo Timmy Bobble Head dolls come out???
Kinda wanted to put one in my car :D
I think Airspeed needs to get Turbo Timmy and Geoff the Webber Bobble Heads... :lol:
-
I think they get released after this years cabbage patch line, ask Jim if you can see his order catalog.
-
You clowns need to get a life. How about a never-never Brats doll or a Wet the pants when I stand on it the first time Sponge Bob?
-
Turbo....you should change that to Non now shouldnt ya? And hey what wrong with wearing square pants????
Who has the fastest car in town? I know who USED to.......
-
James your project is named Project never stroke because dem pistons are never going to stroke.
See you at the shoot out:p
-
Hey Timmy what the hell do you have my engine on your name??? :huh:
Maybe you can e-mail me that pic so I can put it on my name...
You know what Timmy... I may wet my pants when I stand on it but atleast my car can make me wet my pants.... :P
-
Kirin......is that you....mister I never wanna lower my car.....mister car parts in my bedroom...isn't it past your bedtime, is your homework done so that you are allowed to be on the big bad internet?
Don't need a stroker ta beat \"Seabert\" K, just gotta show up - how's you 1300 doin these days? Run into anyone elses cars that are parked lately??????
-
Hey, Is the bigman smack talk an airborn virus?Your car will be fast alright,thats because I built it Spongebob.tell me when you want to Kick some a-- and I might think about putting it back together pour vous.I think I might start you off with a 120 horse tune,or is that to much?wouldnt want you to rip your sponge. P.S. I am and always will be T.J. you cant buy that title.
-
No one has to worry about James showing up anywhere. That hockey pool sure is growing though!! B)
-
Hockey Pool????
What forum are you on?
-
Well Timmy atleast you are posting now.....Geoff will be happy to hear that. BTW Have you heard from the Bum yet?? Man I hope it rains all week :lol:
-
Parked cars?
Well luckily for me I have enough muscle and my shoes which aren't velcro like yours so I have enough grip to stop my car from rolling. My 1300 is still in the car. I'm getting the goods to build my torquey 1914. To bad you missed out on your daughters walkage. I'm taking her out tommorow night just so you know.
See you later big daddy.
-Kirin
-
Heard the term \"shotgun dad\" I am the apitimy of the term, I'm going to have \"protected by Smith and Wesson\" tattoed on her forhead.
And FYI they are velcro gloves - the Geoff Peterson model #069
Are you seriously building a 1914? I thought you wanted to go 1776? If so that is cool it will be nice to go up against the same cc engine and see what happens - more of and apple to apple comparison.
-
I am seriously buildingup a 1914.
right now I'm kind of trying to figure out the cam I want to use. Basically I want something really good off the line but keeps on pulling. Looking at fk8. Remember though my car is not going to be a dragstrip car. But I would be interested once its done trying to take you on:p
-Kirin
-
My first choice for a cam was the fk8 as well then found it didnt have enough uumph for my intended use so I went with a Pauter cam
-
hmm
Well I thought maybe fk8.
I know the guys at Colt Cams pretty well so maybe a \"Custom\" Cam maybe int he works.
Lets just try to get our cars ont he road first eh then talk about racing.
-Kirin
-
Ya Colt does good work, they can custom make any cam for our platform - pretty inexpensive to (comparing to other custom cams)
They've done work for me a few times now
-
Yeah exactly.
I had them do considerable \"Rare\" Cam for one of my project cars. They also polished a crank shaft for me. They do good work and are good guys..
-Kirin
-
By the way.. this just in.
Jim has been telling customers that have been walking into airspeed that you and i are smack talking each other.....
-Kirin
-
??? I only smack talk people who have a remote chance of competing with me - And in Brian's case I do it cause it's fun, he's got along way to go to become competition.
-
A long way to go eh? My car is pretty much done. Wernt you there last year? You must have a pretty big shovel there James, because you have dug yourself one HUGE hole!! Keep talking we will see. I think you should talk smack to Kirin because you both have the same displacement. If you beat him you can come race with the BIG boys!! :P
-
Come on. Going fast ina striaght lines no fun. I'll be able to out handle you all.
As for smack talking James, Jim told one of my friends about our little spat....
They ended up telling me last night that maybe I should edit my posts before I'm taking your daughter out..
Good old shot gun dad!
-Kirin
-
Big boys? Mister 160 pounds soaking wet!

-
Actually I weigh 155. But with my bug not lightened like you guys I need every bit of my tall lanky self to help my bug out.
We will see who gets done first though.
Unfortunaly I don't race trailer queens:P
-Kirin
-
Ditto on the weight thing!! As far as not racing trailer queens, its probably a good thing for YOU!! Whats the wager again James? Maybe one of us can inheret another bottle. Kirin, you better get more papers added onto your paper-route if ya want to compete! :unsure:
-
Texas Mickey or equivliant - Kirin has a long time to go before he's allowed to goto a liquor store so he'd have to get an equivilant
-
I have no doubt your ghia is fast. But then again you probably don't want to wear the rubber nubs off the tires :P
As for the paper route thing.. Yeah I'm working on it.
But my secret plan is to rob a casino in Alaska and fund it that way.
-Kirin
-
Long time? Come on James :rolleyes:
Maybe if your counting in dogyears.
I have friends that are 19.....
Anyways Yeah wouldn't that be great to see James' ass smoked by a bug with a N In the back :lol: :lol:
-

It would just be nice to see James show up this year. The only way he will see 13s is in the stands. By the way, there was another guy here last year talking smack. I cant recall his name. Hes been very quiet. Oh yeah! it was Kevin.. Where is he. I was thinking about him when I went to my refrigerator last night]] :blink:

N = Never

Ummmmmmmm....

Sorry Kirin,what I said is you two were smacking each other..........and she giggled when I told her!
-
Was that Kirin's Girlie Friend????? :P ....... Maybe you can race her car Kirin?
-
Oh my car will be done. Yeah she did tell me that you made a special point about telling her about James and I going at it. As for Mels car well its a 70's bug. And my car will be done. Just watch me.. I bet James won't do it..
-Kirin
-
WHAT WILL YOU BET????? Don't sell you soul to the devil, cause I always collect!
-
The shifter you gave me.
Thats what I'm betting... Or how about the right front fender off my car?
-Kirin
-
Will you race me???
:huh:
-
Huh the fender off your car??????
Are you eating/sniffing glue again?
-
If its done the bug will be at mission raceway for a once in a lifetime drag race. Other then that shes going to be built for autocross.
I'll bet you.. a 6 pack.
-Kirin
-
better make it rootbeer there young fella B)
-
lol Yes officer Buchan.
How bout red-bull? thats just what James needs :P
-
Like I need anymore energy!
-
Your going to need some on August the 10th...
:)
-
Why do I have to babysit you that day?
-
6 days before the great Canadian.. Will your car be ready? Plus the only thing I need to be babysat is my bug. Wanna do it?:P
-Kirin
-
With all the work your bug needs i'll pass, I already have my hands full.
-
Tell me what your car needs and I will show you my list and we can see where we both are.
-Kirin
-
When you drop the beam off I'll show you, can't give away all my secrets....
-
Bout time.
I have been waiting for pics for a loooong time.
-Kirin
-
Ahhh pics.....Maybe I'll take some this weekend.
-
Maybe some K-jake spy shots.
-Kirin
-
James, is your mouth writing checks you cant cash again.....this time with children it sounds like.....you cant go two years in a row being Mr.smack talk/Mr. no show. better hurry.
Matt
-
Maybe I might be some good motivation.
IF James gets outdone by a 17 year old he will never live it down.
-Kirin
-
Live it down.... if Geoff can live down some of the girls he's \"dated\" then this would be a walk in the park!
:P
Just get to work K, I just picked up a clutch disc alignment tool form Jimmy the other day so that means the engine is about to go in.....
And thanks to Miss Red Snapper I now have a CSP Kafer Cup Brace - How are your launches going to be?
-
Its one thing to have your car put together.. but another thing for it running. And would you really trust buying a traction brace/bar from your enemy? :o
-
Kirin, after you race James How about me and you??? ;)
-
He's not my enemy, he just needs to be shown what's what when it comes to cars and the track.
He wasnt able to use it anyways his oil cooler was in the way - What did you end up doing Brian?
-
Brian your on.
I got a convertable ghia with a mail order carpet kit to keep up to :P
Somebody should post up that video of my bug vs a 60 bug with a 1600sp. I launched better but of course 1600 vs 1200 blew my door's off.
-Kirin
-
Brian your on.
I got a convertable ghia with a mail order carpet kit to keep up to :P
I'd settle down there Wink, have you even seen his car?? oh yeah....it wasn't Brian who challenged you, it was Shane.
-
I don't think K knows what Shane drives....Here's a hint, it green and the decklid won't close due to a large piece of metal sticking out.....And it has the ability to make grown men piss themselves (ask turbo timmy)
-
Shizzle.
I mistook Shane with the badass turbo bug for brian of convertable ghia fame.
How about this shane you give me a 10 second head start and then we can race?
-Kirin
-
I cant wait till the first time I piss myself.. :huh: Never thought I would say that.....Kirin I will give you 5 seconds.
-
K well let me get my car done first lol.
But my question is.. can the turbo car handle well?
-kirin
-
We will find out... :o
-
Sounds to me like your all full of shit. Kirin, did you say you were 17? Shit, you were being breast fed by the neighbours goat when I was driving my first VW!! :wacko: Now I feel old.
-
Somebody should post up that video of my bug vs a 60 bug with a 1600sp. I launched better but of course 1600 vs 1200 blew my door's off.
-Kirin
and somebody else should post the vid of you snapping your throttle cable cos you dumped the clutch off the line in first... :lol:
-
I dont remember pissing myself.But Gary might have.
-
Yeah I'm 17. Just wait till I'm James' age I'm bound to mature somewhat.. yeaaah right.
As for that throttle cable snapping well lets just say I'm the first person I've ever heard of toasting tranny mounts in a stock bug with a 1200cc..
That was funny I really thought I threw a rod.
So truthfully brian whats up with the ghia? Along with the carpet?
-Kirin
-
Nothing going on with the ghia right now ;) (top secret). Whats this you keep asking about my carpet kit for? Is it some kinda sick perverted fetish? :unsure:
-
Oh yeah theres nothing like the super sexy feel of german square weave... ^_^
Just my upholstery guy brought it up since he was reading a vw mag. And made a comment about it.
Truth be told all the only race I will probably be beating James in is pushing my car down the track faster then him.
-Kirin
-
Are you calling me old and fat?
-
I'm not saying your old and fat.
But those night shifts aren't doing anything good for you.
-Kirin

Kirin, Ive seen your upholstery guys work and if I were him I would keep his comments to himself. Maybe we could set up a car push class for you and James.
-
Car pushing contest woo-hoo.
I can smack talk James in person tommorow...
Yeah right.
As for the uphostery guy thing :wacko: :unsure:
-kirin
-
hey kirin, u should use Brian or Gary for you car - support your local guys!
-
My guy is local.
Surrey is local and he is a dub albeit watercooled guy who almost bought a convertible ghia once.
-Kirin
-
nobody's perfect....
-
Yeah.
Neither am I.
but who is?
-Kirin
-
tuck & cover all the way baby!! g. economy is the man!!!!
-
Looks like the local upholstery trade is heating up. You guys better hold onto your clients because I'm almost ready! You should be seeing some crazy custom work within a few months.
ThrasheR
-
I can just imagine.
Hey Bill would you be interested in doing anything using denim?
-kirin
-
Kirin, if you can pay for it, I can make it. Do I sense a Jeans Bug replica coming on?
ThrasheR
-
Not my own bug.
I will stop by one day when My car is done that way you can check it out and get your creative juices flowing.
nothing radical just completly practical..
Kirin\"classic story.. boy meets bug and bug emptys wallet\" Jakerson.
-
Gary is a great upholsterer as well, but hes not as good lookin!!!Kirin, I think you should have used something in Paisly. It suits your charecter.
-
Or how about metallic teal?
Like to see you say that to my little punk ass face :P
Just so you know i believe in garage queens but not trailer queens...
:wub: Kirin
-
Now look what I've started... the auto trim smack talk smack down!?!?! Who's your upholstery guy, Kirin? I'm always up for checking out the competion. I know Brian and Gary have already set the local standard very high and I plan on continuing that tradition. I hopefully am picking up a machine this week so I should have my car done soon.
ThrasheR
PS. Kirin, in response to your signature, there are even fewer of us that don't give a shit about vintage preservation and would rather just get out the sawzall!
-
Hes not a vw specific upholstery guy. Hes on vwvortex.
Anybody really interested in my upholstery guy can email me.
As the comment about my signature.. Everybody has opinions and well Vintage preservists are a dying breed. Luckily my whole \"Vintage Nazi/ Nothing radical just completly practical\" Is only in me.
Of course we all know James wants to be just like me :P
-Kirin
-
Kirin, when I was 17 you don't want to know the kinda shit I was into.... As far as being like you maybe I wouldn't have had to have joined the army at that age.
-
Okay I'm a good boy.
Don't care to join the army..
Wow this has gone far off topic.
-Kirin
-
LOL MAN i dunno why i spend so much time on shoptalkforums.
You guys are great. all this bench racing..ohh ahh.
And pickin on Kirin :) LOL time to take a stab at me!
When is this spring meet all you are talking about?
Finally some new work has come up..so i will be outa town for the next 3-4 months..but when i come back the new motor gets some new goodies.
And im gonna spank you all! LOL i promise to have the fastest DAILY DRIVEN 2.0L air cooled flat 4 at the track. Maybe not right away. but soon.
(it might only last 1 run in \"fast as can go\" trim, but thats ok with me)
it has been said. and you can hold me to it.
Cale
-
Well Cale , You know what they say.....
\"If it dont go, CHROME it\"
I expect to see you at Airspeed buying all your chrome parts this week.
By the way you couldn't handle the car you have? Did you not smack up the entire frint end?
Maybe Jim can put an throttle limiter on it like he did on his kids ATV?
Just a :lol: thought
-
Hey Shane
I think you forgot something. Aparently stickers help too. Airspeed stickers I hear take off seconds.
shawn
-
this thread sound like a bash about who has more money.... :P j/k
anyone can buy a finished motor and put it into a car to make it go fast. Its the build up of the car and motor to make it your own that counts! if you are too fast for everyone, its not fun to compete with other cars!
just my 2 cents
stephan
-
LOL Well, we will see..and yeah i toasted the front of the bug. but its better now. really i have broke almost everything on that car at one point in time or another.
If it dont go, chrome it? or is it more.. the bull sh-it stops when the green flag drops?
:)

Stephan
-
Stephen dont you mean my black and yellow beetle?
that I sold you? Hey it now has a wing on it..
Just for the record Stephan ..... what engine did you build?? :huh:
When you coming back to Canada to shut up and Race????
:lol:
-
The wing, for your information is a Carbon fiber peice from air cooled.net
And yes the black and yellow car is my car now :) and its bad azz! still looks the same as when i bought it..but has MAJOR work done under the skin
and when i get back into town..its gonna get allot more work done 2 it.
soon it will be time for paint and rims..but im more into go fast parts at the moment..
LOL would it not suck to get toasted by your old car?
soon to find out!
Cale
-
Cale... Cale .. Cale....
If I get beat by you I am putting Jimmy behind the wheel...... and then he will crank the Turbo and look out...
Sorry about the wing comment did not mean to offend you... You do need paint however cuz it looks like a Taxi!!!! Now I am meaning to offend you :P .... I only bought that car for the engine in which I put into my sand rail.... Did Stephen leave the berg shifter in it???
So is that the technical name.. Carbon Fibre piece???
There is one more thing you can buy for it when you get into town .. Not sure where to get them but they are completely rubber and they strecth around the whole car......Hmmmmmm PNE has some.... Bumper Cars... Yeah that should help you..... :lol:
-
100th post :rockon:
-
Who painted the taxi? a hacker job it is..but really i would look like some DVKK guy if i had a single colour paint job..and we cant have that..ohh i guess i would need some BRMs to fit right in.
A big rubber ring? LOL they dont make em big enough for me!
Go ahead and crank the boost..you will need it.
Cale
-
Looks to me like someone is biting off way more than he can chew...
Go ahead and crank the boost..you will need it.
Cale
-
yeah the berg shifter was in it..along with the narrowed beam and front disc conversion..other then that..Mechanical parts are all new.
im thinking its getting a 1 peice front end now..and a set of carbon fiber rear fenders..and maybe a fancy air speed deck lid.
then the plan is to paint it tripple black..no idea about rims yet..but it needs to look bad ass.. No pussy bugs. or pink bugs for that matter. hehehehehehe
hahahhahahahahah
hey Point blank..are you the guy that has the alignment shop?
if so maybe i should lay of the smack talk..
but if not..all the bad mouthing still stands :)
Cale
-
Whoa! Just when I was going to make a comment about I'm wondering what kind of Mods Brians going to do to his truck to make his ghia be pulled faster then James' bug and mine!
Go Cale go!
-kirin
-
Way more then i can chew?
I dunno..someone is gonna need to step up to the plate and take on the \"big boys\" and i dont see many ppl getting inline.
all the nice paint in the world..and fancy interiors..and nice rims..aint gonna make a car fast. i know how to make a car fast..its what i do..and its what i will do untill i beat everyone i have set out to beat..and have become the one that needs to be beaten..im not going away..i have YEARs ahead of me..and i already have a quick car..a few more months it will be a STUPID fast car..and then whats next? who knows..but i aint slowing down, thats for sure.
-
all the ...fancy interiors..aint gonna make a car fast.
True...but if you can't be fast, at least you can be comfy!
ThrasheR
-
Hey this is cale on shawns comp..you do have a point about the comfy thing..LOL well my car is good enough for the comfy thing..altho i wish it did not leak as much as it does..but i guess thats kinda what you get for daily driving a car that is not really built for the daily drive.
-
Hey isn't that my motto?
Seabert won't be the fastest 62 around but the interior is sure going to be plush!
I'm still trying to decide how I'm going to fit the wetbar in the back along with the velour tuck and roll back seat in it.
-Kirin

Looks to me like someone is biting off way more than he can chew...
People that live in glass houses, shouldn't throw stones.....or isn't that the pot calling the kettle black..... :P

shane, I built a 1965 porsche 356 S90 motor with 48 IDA's, norris cam, etc.. for the car!
so yah. I've come a long way since a few years back. I was ripped off many time by people who I put my trust in (remeber that \"2180???\") and I just decided to do things on my own. I've been in canada for 1-2 months now. No, I won't have a big race beetle anytime soon because I have schooling coming up in the fall.
I'm deciding to build my own motor next or to get an N/A one. when you go turbo its no fun because you'll just smoke everyone else! there is no real competition! I could just go into debt and buy a huge motor that is finished and come race, but it would never really be my own. but thats awesome that you picked up that motor and car for $30,000+! (I think thats what I heard!)correct me if I'm wrong.
the black yellow car had the berg shifter in it etc.. the body work was never done 100% properly because I never had a full respray or anything. gary (the guy shane bought the car off of) did a lot of work on the body, but neglected it.
Stephan
-
Hey stephan.....
Who said I was in Debt????
And yes i remember the 2180 you tried to sell me... Turned out to be a wheezed out 1835...
As far as building an engine.... I obvoiusly have more money than Time..... To each his own....
:huh:
Cheers
See you at the Strip.... :lol:

oh, no shane, you've got your business and everything. I'm a jealous student that would have to go into debt to compete with you guys :P
yah, I gave that motor away for free.
yah, totally. most people don't have the time. instead of working in the garage building your car, you are working and making money to buy the car. also a good way to go.
props for a nice bug shane.
let me know on the CD player

-
Sounds good, I can be in the area around 1ish wanna meet at airspeed or where you will be?
-
Airspeed will be fine at 1ish.... Geoff said that Jim will buy us Lunch..... I think he said Whitespot
So make sure you get your order in... I will have a Chicken Burger combo..... :P
Maybe I should get there a little early to set up the card table...only seats 4 so we will have to keep Gary on his side...

-
BTW Way Cale........ Stupid Fast???? you cant even handle marginal fast.... look what you did to your car already.... I think it is more like Fast is stupid for you!!! :lol:
Maybe Jim can take the training wheels off his daughters bike for you.... :D
I think I am going to get a bigger rear view mirror so I can see you when we race...
B)
-
Cool see ya at 1 - I'll take a Big O burger, lrg fries and a coke there Jimmy. I'll bring by those short axles tmrw too.
I see Jim went on a diet, he was only eating a salad today - must be worried about extra weight for this years races - don't worry I'm sure there is a trophy for second place, or maybe third or even fifth......
