  1. So when do we get a first startup video?
  2. My area is so completely taken over by the other side that I really can't even play....how am I supposed to level up when all I do is get my ass kicked by level 9 and above portals? Haven't played all week.
  3. I'm proud of you. Downtown is where the tall buildings are.
  4. It's miles from downtown dude. Oakdale is basically highland square east...it's also full of crack and hookers. Sure if you go far enough west (like Fairlawn and copley) it's better... but that's beyond west akron
  5. Ok, go live on Oakdale or crosby....west akron is pretty bad with the exception of highland square and Merriman /portage.
  6. You realize that unless your 401 is giving you a less than 14% return it's smarter to use a credit card than borrow from 401k...yes you only pay 4% on it and it's back to yourself, but if your 401 gives you even 5% return a year your fucking yourself over because you're losing the 5% that money would be earning you.
  7. Can't think of anything off hand but some landlords will do a 6 mo around there...hard part is finding one in a decent neighborhood...if you can afford it I'd recommend renting out of akron proper...aim for green, uniontown, springfield, tallmadge, cuy falls...there really aren't very many decent neighborhoods in akron anymore...certain parts of Goodyear heights are ok but others are horrible. Ellet is still pretty good as are parts of North hill and west akron, but as a former resident of akron I suggest you go to the suburbs if you can help it.
  8. This thread already exists...I started it almost a year ago when I quit smoking. It's called e cigs, vaporizers and other tobacco alternatives or something... Right now I've got a smoktech SID mod with a kangertech protank 3 on it but I've got a pile of stuff at home...tried to go to a cartomizer but it would either flood or dry out so I went back to regular tanks. Haven't gotten into the sub ohm stuff or real heavy builds, just not interested in spending the time and money. I get some of my stuff from a shop downtown and the rest online.
  9. How's about next monday? I have to leave work early for a dr appt, that will give me time to get shit set up before you get here. It will be around 50°. I'll get another guy over to help. Send all other inquiries via text, we're taking a huge shit on a sponsors for sale thread.
  10. This has hipster on a cb 350 written all over it.
  11. Well you're also not going to get the full power to the wheels with a conventional automatic, torque is lost in the converter, pump, clutches etc.. maybe the cvt has more initial inertia to overcome with the big pullies...or maybe they tuned the cvt more for economy for EPA reasons...or maybe the motor was detuned...too bad they didn't release one with a standard to check against an older model with a standard to rule out motor tuning/emissions garbage.
  12. #1 The belt failures I've read about are from boosting and tuning the 2.5 sentra with cvt...I haven't heard of any subie belt ffailures. #2 huh... didn't catch that.
  13. Nissan has cars out there with 150k+ miles still running fine. My sentra has 102k and it gets me around just fine.. only issue I've noticed is if you happen to be braking at the same time it drops out of overdrive you can feel a little hitch.
  14. Ah...you are correct sir. Seems subaru doesn't offer anything but the cvt in the newer legacies....and you gotta pay a shit ton to get the 6 cyl...
  15. I wish my legacy had the 6...the 4 is still damn good tho, 175 hp 175 tq. Dat turbo 6 doe....
  16. Yeah I've thought of that but there seems to be a bit of controversy over whether or not it works.
  17. Derp...seems the sacrificial annode method only works on seagoing vessels...
  18. This, and to add that old muscle cars were only really good at going fast in a straight line, the handling and brakes were shit. So are muscle bikes supposed to be similar? Xs11 is a perfect example: it could accelerate, it could brake and it could steer, but it couldn't do 2 at once. Vmax is another great example, absolute hell in a straight line, way too porky to go fast in the turns.
  19. I guess I'm just curious as to what separates a muscle bike from a sport bike from a big bore cruiser....
  20. It's a question. Trying to get some disambiguation on the term muscle bike...
