  1. This is really tempting. I've always wanted a coupe. I doubt that I would have sold my 93 if it had been a coupe. Good luck.
  2. Looks like things have come full circle, assuming you really did buy a Cobra. It was still funny to see you and Sam purging next to each other on the exit to Sawmill after a "trip" around town. I don't know what was more surprising that night. Was it the white 86, or you spraying Sam?
  3. You don't have to o-ring the block. The Trick Flow gasket kit from Summit is the cheapest way to go. That gasket kit also uses the Fel-Pro Loc-wire head gaskets, but includes everything else that you will need as well.
  4. This has been killing me this week. I drive in at 6:30AM and they idiots are already out. I'm trying to figure out where they came from. Traffic has never been this bad on the way in, but now it seems to be terrible. I haven't gone over 60mph the past three days, because everyone is scared of wet roads. Can't wait to see what happens on the way home when there actually is some snow.
  5. I always thought Lee's car was a 306. I guess not. Either way, that motor was supposedly a very well built Bennet motor. Once again, just what I had heard at the time. I could be wrong.
  6. The funny part of this is that you called the guy and told him that you had a higher offer and then got mad that he didn't want the item after that. I'm sure that he assumed that you were trying to screw him out of more money and that was why he gave the response he did. I would do the same thing. As far as the part about you selling it to someone else, I'm up in the air on that one. You had someone pay you more money and you took it, but you also had some kind of agreement with the other guy. That is where it gets to be in the grey area. Yes it's a little crappy that you sold it to someone else after the agreement, but there aren't any guarantees laid out. Yes, what you did could be considered a little shady but it's not the end of the world. I personally don't know what I would do, but most likely I would take the money from whoever had it. I've had too many problems with people who say that they are going to come get something or pay for something later and then don't.
  7. I wasn't talking too much crap, but I just get tired of people whining on the internet when they could have done something in "real-life" to avoid the issue. Timing did screw him, but crying on the web doesn't help anything either.
  8. So, your saying that someone hits you and if you are under 25 that you don't get a rental? Since when? I know some companies won't give a rental to someone under 25 that wasn't in an accident. I've never heard of anyone of any legal driving age having an issue getting a rental after their car was hit by someone else. Like I said before, if he would have pushed the issue he would have gotten something done. Sucks that he is in the situation in the first place, but the insurance company he is dealing with will screw him around until they cut him a check for his car so they won't have to pay any money on a rental. Just an example of him being taken advantage of by the insurance company.
  9. That would do it too. I heard that the A/F with the Predator was a little lean too and that when it was "programmed" to add more fuel, that it didn't do anything at all. The handheld has limits unless you can do a custom tune through it.
  10. I guess you just need to man up and tell them that they need to quit screwing you. I've never had or seen a limit like that on rental coverage before. When I had my old car in the body shop I had a rental that was more than that as well. This was before I was 25 as well. Good luck.
  11. What did you get? I still haven't had the Punch yet, but will be doing so very soon.
  12. I still don't understand why you haven't gotten a rental. When my wife's car was totalled we went to the rental place and explained what was going on. They used our credit card just to put a hold on it, not take any money. This was just to cover their end. The other insurance company then payed the bill. This is common practice. If you want to have a car to drive that's all you have to do. Quit bitching about it and just go get one. The other company has to pay for your rental. It's their customers fault that you don't have anything to drive, so they are obligated to take care of that. Just realize that once they cut you a check for your car, they won't pay much longer on a rental. They expect you to get a car very quickly.
  13. I just showed this to my wife and she laughed. I tried. Bump for you. Car looks amazing.
  14. Please, please, get a SCT mulit-bank chip from Brian and have him tune your car. Handheld with limited capabilities just don't hit all of the necessary functions that a custom tune does. Your previous "issue" with melting the plug may have been due to a less than desirable tune from that hand held. Just saying.
  15. That's because you are gay and do joint replacements . Also, hood pins aren't necessary on 14 second cars. Welcome to the site.
  16. What a gift! That would be a surprise for sure.
  17. It's rather amazing isn't it? Our girl was born the day before Thanksgiving and I would have thought that missing out on Thanksgiving dinner would have bothered me, but I didn't care at all. I was definitely ready to get home after a couple days in the hospital. Like everyone else said, congrats and hopefully you didn't like sleep anyways .
  18. I hope you don't mean Jamal Lewis. Out for his career.
  19. This is why people get screwed. Doesn't matter what "They told you". The insurance company of the person that hit you has to pay for your rental. $25/day. That's funny.
  20. So, I was on SVTPerformance and came across this http://www.svtperformance.com/forums/road-side-pub-17/658504-bengals-fans.html I'm not sure why people think that it is fun to talk shit about people that have died, but these guys are ridiculous. The guy made some bad decisions in the past and the "internet detectives" are sure to come out and speculate, but give me a break. I'm not worried about people like Chris Henry. I'm worried about the douchebags that run their mouths about people that they have never met and their only source of info is the media. Anyway, RIP Chris Henry. It's too bad that this had to happen. Kid seemed to be trying to straighten out his life.
  21. The internet would self-destruct if Jeff didn't get involved in drama every once in awhile.
  22. That's a lot of food. I've often wondered how much Chipotle I could actually eat, but I doubt that 3 burritos and 3 tacos would be it. I just don't want the aftermath that would be associated with me eating that much. One with the hot sauce gets the fire going. Can't imagine 3.
  23. I remember seeing the car at Kilkare at some point. Definitely like it.
  24. The mirrors usually hit $200 within 2 days on ebay. I haven't seen a pair go for less than $350 on ebay. The other parts will sell for that money. They do all of the time on the sites mentioned above.
