  1. JC Penny's in Westland went out of business like 6+ years ago. Where have you been buddy? They are having a mini-expo in it now.
  2. I wonder what size battery system it's using. It'll make your average tuner disappear. Those things can kill you if you aren't taking the right precautions and using the right tools.
  3. Speed sensor probably went bad, just have to find out which one.
  4. Your problem is circled on the front grille.
  5. Were there any 240SX's? I was about to go up there this afternoon, but it was raining. :-X
  6. My offer is still always good. I'm a Saturn certified mechanic with a mint '94 Saturn SL2. I've emailed you multiple times.
  7. You already have something a lot of people have, big dreams with no realization.
  8. My first thought process would be to make sure the plugs are at the gapped to spec., and measure the resistence of the spark plug wires to see if they are well within spec.
  9. Well it really depends on what generation 3SGTE you are speaking. Either way, it's not going to be a "hell of a lot." You're probably gaining 50-60hp (average of all 3sgte's) to the wheels in a car that will weigh around 3000. Which means you'll be a mid 14 second car. Woopy de doo. It won't happen anyhow, I will say that it won't be done. If you do it then good for you, but I'm saying it's just day dreaming.
  10. Why would you want to put a 3sge in the car? Obviously you mean a 3sgte. Yes, the motorset would fit in your car, with a lot wiring and work. Work that you do not seem capable of. Even a 3sgte in a '97 Celica isn't worth $10g's. A '97 Celica with 130k on it is work ~$5000.
  11. I could do it, Jake has my number if you can get a hold of him.
  12. My son will be born in the spring, so probably just spending as much time as I can with him. Also probably get a nicer 240SX for the fiance' to drive.
  13. I like my job. We have a lot of perks at my dealership. They do raffles every quarter and rent out someplace fun, last time it was Buckeye Hall of Fame, before it was a bowling alley. I get discounts on parts from every autoparts store or every dealership. Bonus'. Good pay. Tons of great people to work with. Tons of work to do. I make 130 hours every two weeks only working 4 days a week. Paid training. Paid vacations. Every weekend is a 3 day weekend.
  14. I know that JP built a stupid fast Plymouth Colt for around $2g's for the 2006 Grassroot Challenge. I think it'd be possible for us to build something similar as a whole group.

  16. Learning about cars. Making 15 hours off one car within 3 hours. Getting paid flat rate, a love/hate relationship. Chipotle. Red Robin. Counterstrike. Sleep. Having someone who genuinely loves me. My fiance'. My little unborn baby boy, due in April. Pre-1987 RWD Toyota's. Speeding down tight winding roads. Gripping hard on freeway exit ramps. Having a girl that loves cars.

    Cobalt SS..

    I've had to replace a cylinder head on a Redline Ion due to oil starvation. Someone was using latex gloves when doing an oil change on one. I supposed a piece ripped off when getting the oil filter out as they are a bitch. The piece of latex go stuck in an oil galley and starved the top half of the motor of oil. Not fun.
  18. Saturn Ion Redline. I can get you a hook up with the GM factory Stage 2 upgrades. Toyota MR2 AW11 S/C Toyota MR2 SW20 Turbo Toyota Supra MK3 Turbo
  19. Actually there's a difference between torx and hex. These pictures below are actually tamper proof hex/torx heads, but you get the idea. http://www.aaronssecurityscrews.com/images/SecurityHexSocketPinHead69x69.gif That's a hex ^ http://www.aaronssecurityscrews.com/images/SecurityTorxPinHead69x69.gif That's a torx ^

    What pisses you off?

    1. Old people at Wal-mart that insist on using the you-scan for the first time ever, in front of you. 2. When people put toliet paper in the holder upside down. 3. Drugs. 4. Rust. 5. People who mess with cars and don't know what they are doing, then you later end up buying the car they once owned. 6. My absent minded self. 7. ^^ Removing a transmission 3 times to then remember you didn't torque down the pressure plate bolts. 8. Stupid concerns at work "Customer states her windshield wipers are covered in ice, please check and advise" True story. 9. Nice cars that were taken care of very poorly. 10. Cancer. 11. Having blood drawn. 12. Anyone that says anything bad about my son. 13. ^^ or anything about my fiance. 14. People who have dogs that are taken care of very poorly. 15. Puppy Mills.
  21. That's b/c you like men Jake. :wink:
  22. He's 17 now, it said it was his middle school teacher. Reading > you
