Trouble Maker

This thread is PROOF that you smoke ENTIERLY too much MARIJUANA!

Suggesting to someone to not get a lawyer is the worst advice you could give someone. State appointed lawyers are hit and miss from what I've heard. Just because you get a lawyer doesn’t necessarily mean you want to fight, but you just want good representation by someone who knows the law and has a reason ($$$$ and recommendations) to want to do a good job for you. Not having one is a sure way to get fucked in the ass without lube. A good lawyer could mean the difference between things like 3 days in jail being replaced with community service and whether you get privileges or not. Just because you get a lawyer doesn’t mean you are trying to completely get out of it. You’re right, that would be dumb to do in this case, it would piss me off if I were a judge.

Very cool you got that much with a tune. Was this done with a Cobb ECU thingey (can't remember the name of it) or something else I haven't heard of before? Did you ditch the plans for the time being to tune for E85 also?

Lawyer up, it won't be cheap. That's about the only good advice anyone could give. As far as I understand, if she doens't have a bad record, she should get out ok, and definitely get at least privlages. But she will get FUCKED if she doesn't get a lawyer.

Ditto. You'll snap it in half if your ride any dirt or hard street, but if you are just looking to ride around on the sidewalks or whatever, that should be fine. If you are looking for something nicer, check out http://www.danscomp.com They have some decent deals, and you can get something pretty damn nice in the 200-300 range. Not bomb proof, but still very nice for the money.

I've actually decided that I'm going to just clean off the excess grease that has already come out and keep a close eye on it to see how much/if any more grease comes out. Maybe I just put too much in there to begin with? If very much more comes out, I will redo it. It’s an OEM clamp, I would think it should work just fine….

So, we see that you obviously were upset about a car very similar to yours falling off of a trailer. I'm just confused about what the second (beautiful) car was that also fell off of the trailer?

Which is today (Tuesday), so he went to the bar at midnight to have his first (legal) beer.

You just picked two outlandish scenarios that probably no one here is going to fall into. Someone on here making 30k/yr might be looking for something more along the lines of a house or a reasonable used car. Their credit score is definitely going to effect their APR they get on a house loan or a car loan, which will effect the bottom line of the true cost of the house or car to them. On the other hand, while you are probably right about the scenario with the 300k/yr, no debt, but a credit score of 500 is stretching the terms of reality a bit. They definitely will not have a problem getting that Aston Martin, but I bet you can’t find one person that fits those three simple pieces of criteria in all of the greater Columbus area. Most anyone making 300k/yr is going to have a fairly nice house in Dublin that the probably got a loan on, a trophy wife driving around an Expedition that they are making payments on, school loans that for some reason they are still paying off, and probably have pretty good credit from making regular payments on all of these.

Yeah, I cleaned most of the grease out. I can't remember the style that this C/V joint is called, but it's the other common one that's not a triple rotor. Looks like this I moved it around a lot and got most of the grease out (I would spin it a few times, wipe all of the grease off, spin it some more, wipe again). I didn't go at it with any type cleaner though. There is definitely more grease that that has seeped out than I left in it. There's enough grease on my brake lines, back of the caliper, suspension components, that the guy at MAG thought the boot had ripped. I didn't use the 'oem' style tool to clamp down the one use only clamps, but I don't see how I could have gotten it any tighter. I used a snipping tool for tile, has about a quarter of an inch gap in between the two sides of the tool. When you tighten down those one use clamps, you ‘pinch’ the metal. If it were very much tighter, the two sides where you ‘pinch’ would be touching and it couldn’t physical get any tighter.

Yes, stock axle. I caught that one really early and there seemed to be nothing wrong with the joint, so I just replaced the boot. It really looks like new grease. I tried to clean it up as well as I could last time (I used a ton of brake parts cleaner). I can run my finger around where the grease seems to be coming out from, and my finger is covered in grease. The only spots were there is 'gobs' of grease collecting on parts now is in a cicle (or plane) from that circle.

I could do that... if I had about five straight years of free time. That was so sweet I almost crapped my pants.

Ok, I originally posted here about how both of my front outer CV boots were ripped. Despite the fact that I replaced the passengers side one six months ago. Well I just got around to replacing the oil yesterday and got a chance to look at them. The drivers side one is in fact ripped, no biggie, it's probably original, 105kmi. and ripped shortly after the other one. The passengers side one which I 'just' replaced isn't actually ripped. The techs at MAG saw grease and assumed it was ripped. It actually appears as if grease is coming out of the end of the CV boot where one of the clamps are. It is not ripped. There is the little side of the boot where the half shaft is, there is a clamp there and that side is fine. The big clamp that clamps the boot to the outer part of the CV joint looks fine, and feels tight enough, but the grease looks like it's squeezing out between the boot and the CV joint. Anyone have any clue why it would do this? I'm pretty sure that it's tight enough. Only thing I can think is that it's not a breathable CV boot and I didn't 'burp' it, but it didn't really look like it had very much air in it. Regardless it looks like it's lost enough grease that I'm going to have to take that clamp off, put more in there, and put a new clamp on it. Some people had suggested that the tranny (and I thought maybe engine mounts) might be on their way out causing excessive movement of the tranny, and there for half shafts, putting twist on the boots. Well I tried to bench press numerous spots on the engine and tranny last night, and the whole suspension started to unweight and the engine and tranny had basically zero movement. I guess since the passengers side one did not re-rip, this isn't as much of a concern any ways. So I think they were just old. TIA for any advice! :woowoo:

Sebring was the tell tale for the rest of the year. Another 1 2 3 for Audi and another year of domination. :woowoo:

I'm trying to stay anticonfrontational but I was there the night you did what you were appologizing for. And seriously dude you need to learn to sit down and be quiet. She obviously doesn't like you, there are a lot of people on here that obviously don't like you and you need to learn to just lay low and steer clear. Why bring it up again on here, are you an attention whore? -Berto

Yeah, you definitely don't want to degrade that crapy signal anymore by sending it through an FM Modulator.

Awww, looks like someone has their first stalker. That's so cute.

Check out Batteries Plus. I had to go there to get batteries for my key fob the other day because it's an odd size. I saw on their website that they sold IPod batteries and asked them about it when I went in there. They said yes, but I think they said they have to order them. Would be worth a call and probably cheaper than an OEM one. I think they are made by Nuon. http://www.batteriesplus.com/

I don't get it, it seemed like the Neon was finally becoming a quality car for the price. That thing is horrible. I say it will only last one major model.

stock radio? Why not just run the remote power from the acc power off of the radio?

A lot of times, people can drive around and not know that they have one bulb burnt out, even with low beams. I could easily see this being the case with the high beams just because most people don't use them very often. Then when the second one burns out, they think that both stopped working all of the sudden, but in reality, one stopped, then later, the other one stopped. Even though it only has 5kmi on it, it's till 6 years old.

Do they have teams for people that suck? Serious questions. Can I come out to a practice or something like that to see how I fit in there skill level wise? Does that league require any protective gear? I never bought any gear because the intramurals roller hockey league I was in at school didn't require any so I never wore any. Just some long pants to dull the blows to the shins a little and my BMX gloves so when I fell I wouldn't get road rash on my hands.

There you go.

Toluene or Zylene.

You shouldn't have to pay any fucking money to get to a bathroom at a place you are already paying them multiplies of what the alcohol cost them. That's ridiculous.
