i was out driving the miata one nice day (before the slave cylinder went out) and i'm coming back into the neighborhood and i see a couple little girls playing in their driveway, so i slow down, just to be careful, and then the older one, still no more than 7, yells "UGLY CAR"
i was amazed, pissed, surprised, and a little envious of this little girls balls
Should have ran her over. That'll teach her.
My younger brothers thinks my car sounds like a Ferrari. I told him that the button for the rear window heat is the nitrous button. So when either of them clicks it i floor the car and theyre always like D:!!!!
i had a tank full of argon and co2 used for welding in my trunk, and when my neighbor was putting his book bag in there to go to school, he asked when i put nitrous in my car :U
tell him that NAWZ bottles are only ELECTRIC BLUE
Some stupid fucking lorry lost some ice from it's wheel arch

Now the front left clip holding the frontbumper broke off
Fucking shit
fuck

thats sucks
bro, hope you
get it fixed

Well I'm successfully $3.5k towards my SRT (Company, not the Dodge) Turbo kit, Hopefully by fall I'll have the money in full and take the car to Maryland to get the work done on it. Depending on how much money I can save will determine if it's going to be around 455HP at the wheels, or closer to 500. After cruising around earlier and talking to a few other civic owners and a fellow who has a nice twin turbo supra, I'm really eager to get this underway. I figure once I get the engine work done I'll finally have enough car to match the Mugen wing I'd like to get down the line, lol.
Also my new black Enkei rims look amazing.
455hp in a fwd?

Yep.
you're kidding right?
[QUOTE=rampageturke 2;28157206]you're kidding right?[/QUOTE]
Not in the slightest, and I've heard it all before, I know what my car is, I know what that kind of hp is like.

Torque steer out the wazoo?
[QUOTE=Prismatex;28157607]Torque steer out the wazoo?[/QUOTE]
Oh yeah, but I'd rather have a 450HP FWD car than a 200HP FWD car and with those being my options, it's not a hard decision.
i would spend the 3.5k on a nice sporty sports car but i mean if you like the civic then by all means do what you want to it.
just my .02

AB Volvo just went full retard. First they sold to Geely, then the end of last year they announce they want to focus even more towards executive/luxury cars and now they're planning to extend production in China by multiples.
What a plan. Wealthy customers certainly won't mind that most of their car comes from China and technically is still lacking behind.
This video is just awesome

The Ferrari wordmark looks grossly cheap so close up.
Just thought I'd stop in to say Rest in Peace, Earnhardt. 3
God dammit. Car was keyed
[QUOTE=>LEAD22<;28170943]God dammit. Car was keyed[/QUOTE]
What kind of car?
BMW 525i. Actually I think some kid ran into it with a bicycle or something, since there was a scratch on the doorhandle as well. [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3864447/PICS/2011-02-20%2012.14.46.jpg[/img]
What the fuck. That's beyond keyed actually.
I bought a truck* today and once again have a vehicle of my own and will probably start posting quite a bit around here.. Maybe take some before/after pictures of the truck starting Tuesday (can't register the truck til then, can't get it here til I can register it).
Truck has a broken rear shock mount and, since I live in New England and it is a 93, is pretty rusty underneath but still inspectable. Some through-and-through body holes that'll be hit with some bondo..
One rear cab mount bracket (a bracket coming off the frame, passenger side, I believe) is rotted enough that the cab mount slips right through the hole.. I don't think this will make it fail inspection (i've heard of a lot of trucks w/ this problem for years w/ stickers) but we're gonna throw a big ass washer in there or something to at least give the mount something to sit on and make it look like it isn't rusted through. It doesn't really "hold" the cab so i think it's really only cosmetic, thus why it wouldn't fail inspection for it.. dunno.
Have to order the rear shock mount, figure i may as well get both sides and new shocks while i'm at it. Just gonna get some Monroe shocks from Advanced Auto and order the rear shock mounts off eBay ($100 + $16 shipping). Replace both rear shocks and both rear shock mounts when they come in cause what the hell, one failed and the other doesn't look far behind and while i'm in there, it's probably 2-3 bolts tops to take out the shock so it only makes sense.
Going down to register it on Tuesday (Monday being President's Day and all), drive back out to the guy's house (about 45 minutes or so), slap the plates on her, and drive her home (did I mention it was only $1200?)..
Since the truck has timbrens and there is enough snow in the back to compress the spring in the rear that still has the mount attached, i'll just ride the timbrens home. Gonna be a very.. well.. truck ride, but it won't really soften up even when it has both shocks and no load in the bed.
*1993 Chevy K1500 Z71, 5.7 (350) V8 with what i believe is a 4 speed (3 + OD I think) automatic. Since it's the Z71, locking rear differential and other little goodies like skid plates. Cool thing is the first owner had it retrofitted for 134a for the AC system, it was originally R12 (i believe) which is now no longer being produced and there's this awesome digital-ish display for the heat/ac. Heat cranks, too. God damn pleasant in that truck when it's cold out.
ps:
this post is a lot longer than i thought
