Just in the front, use rivets for the rest.

What's everyones opinion on water boxes? I've been looking at things to upgrade my x4 and so far I've come across intake grate and waterbox. love the sound of a TDR waterbox. anyone have a used one? lol
They dont do anything but make noise....but if thats your thing they make a great raspy tone. Id do a skat prop and a new wear ring over a TDR in an instant.

not a fan of noisey boxes.. agree with tonka,
prop,
my 2nd choice would be ecwi.

$250 seems a bit high but still cool. Accepting offers though...
I know braley has one and I have one...I wonder how many were made. I paid a little more that 100 shipped for mine.
Ah, nice. I offered him $125 and he countered at 225. Maybe when it doesn't sell he will reconsider.

I buffed my hull using the JSG method as described in his thread on buffing nasty hulls. Mine wasn't all that bad to begin with but it still made a huge difference.
This was the worst area it was chalky yellow on the top of the nose.
Big thumbs up to JSG for the tutorial. I used wool pads for heavy and medium cut and foam for fine cut and synthetic sealant, then hand waxed it.

I have an issue with my steering now, I installed one of my UMI systems and the stem was tilted to the right with the nozzle straight. So I read you can adjust the steering cable at the end. I adjusted it all the way in at the nozzle and still was only about 30% better. Found another adjustment at the front end and adjusted that all the way in and its close but the steering stem still a little tilted to the right when nozzle is straight out the back (or steering nozzle to the left with stem straight). WTF do I do now I cant possibly adjust the ends in any more they are bottomed out, unless I were to remove a jamb nut from one end to get that couple extra turns in.
Anyone have this issue? I checked the steering cable on the parts ski I took the UMI off of and it has threads visible for adjustment on both ends but my cable ends are bottomed out and still not adjusted correctly.

Wow, I didnt know that was adjustable. Feel a bit dumb now, Im done for the day messing with the ski but I will play with that tomorrow. Got the stem system installed and single gauge hood for today lol. Shes looking beautiful already.
Found a couple pics Krispy posted in another thread I read on unequal turn radius 97 GSX:

Usually you cant make it absolutely perfect but you can get it dang close.
