  1. If you got tools I will come over and do it Monday in exchange for cigar knowledge. PM or call me.
  2. Everyone goes turbo. Wait a little while and be unique Kraftwerks
  3. http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/showthread.php?t=86945 Not sure if he still has them or not?
  4. Probably meant for another poster that was showing interest in your wheels. As in go away I saw them first/want them more.
  5. Problem is 10 yrs ago (or 6 for me when I bought) was a very different world. If you went back to 2005 and asked anyone around they would not have predicted that every tom dick and harry would be effected like they have been. 6 years ago I payed $115k. Last year my neighbors payed $70k and the this year the next house down payed $60k. I am currently valued at $92k. With job markets changing, family life changing, etc. I would be interested in a move but it is not an option. It still probably won't be an option in another 5 years at the rate things are going. I had my house appraised and the guy told me if he pushed it he might say $79k. In other words I will be here for much longer then 10 yrs.
  6. Really it still exists today, it is just not as obvious. I have a friend that used to work for Honda R&D. They would come up with a good way to do something and the higher ups would say no because they could use part X from another vehicle to do the job. Yes it might be more complicated and result in stupid placement of a part that requires an arm with 4 joints to change a bulb but, the part already exists so they must use it. The problem is that it is not well documented. For example, the HVAC box in my 2000 Acura Integra is exactly the same as a 97-01 Honda CRV or 00-06 Honda Insight. The cool thing is both of those cars have cabin filters and mine doesn't. (So I added one.) Granted it is not 40 years but, there is just one example that goes across 12 years at least (94 Integra RS-06 Insight). There are many more examples (b series engines, k series engines, subaru engines)
  7. To everyone saying she should have known it was a stop sign, have you ever driven through a construction zone? Have you ever seen signs covered/blocked in various ways. How easy would it be to think "Hey that stop sign is covered, maybe the other direction stops or is not active." Just that split second thought is enough in my book to make it those kids fault. They tampered with a traffic control device. They did not intend to hill someone hence, the manslaughter charge. Had they meant to, it would be murder 1. Sometimes it sucks the way things work out but, every action you take has an effect on those around you and when you take that action, you are responsible for those effects.
  8. It's not a matter of fitting. It is a matter of safety. You buy the car and then you and your buddies decide to run to the store. You have the only 4-door so everyone piles in. It's a little cramped but it is only a 5 minute drive no big deal. BAM!!! Some idiot blows a stop sign and hits you causing the car to roll over as it hits the curb. Everyone piles out...wait where is Joe... there he lays in the backseat head crushed and neck broken.
  9. Can it hold 4 12" wide tires?
  10. You said Suspension and motor done by SloMO, what suspension mods were done? Sorry if I missed it in the OP.
  11. There are some cool vehicles/trailers out of state. Found a lot with an enclosed trailer (8x16) a triaxle dump and a tandem dump all for $9k. It looks like a landscape business siezed by the Marshals. Found a ton of old Kaiser duece and a halfs starting at $100.
  12. Government Auctions Thought some of you may be interested. We are getting ready to add a few cars and a lot of scrap cars to this list so check back often. Looks like the only vehicle within Ohio currently is a 2008 Escape for $10,700. They also have other random interesting stuff. The DEA and U.S. Marshals also post seizures on this site.
  13. Check out http://www.trcpg.com. They are looking for Mechanic 2 positions.
  14. If it has to little oil in the gas, it has to little lubricant. It would be like running your car with little to no oil. Excessive friction causes heat.
  15. The carb on that truck is fairly new. Provided there are no major changes I would think you could swap intakes and call it a day. I am by far no expert though so Research it. Just an idea of how to keep it simple.
  16. FYI: Lots of reviews stating accounts being debited and messages that order could not be completed. http://gifts.barnesandnoble.com/HP-TouchPad-Tablet-with-16GB-Memory-WiFi-12GHz-Black/e/886111788637?itm=2
  17. Info on the oil filter sandwich plate?
  18. Have you done the covered bridge tour in Union County?
  19. Get Capstar. It is a small pill and it starts working in 30 mins.
  20. I skimmed it and saw the NOS bottles.:thumbup: I got interested and started reading. Then I found out they are just Bazooka Tubes.:thumbdown
  21. Was that his chute that looked like it ripped off and he kept going? That sux.
  22. Give him things to destroy. Our dog was the same way. We have a fish tank so, when I buy gallon jugs of water for the tank, he gets to play with the jugs. At first they would be destroyed rather quickly. We had to give him every bottle we had as soon as we used it. Now he has grown older and not so destructive we rarely give him the jugs.
