Man, in College, not once did I ever pull an all nighter. Not once did I actually ever spend a night studying late for a final at all. Hell, I don't think I studied for a test/exam/final more than 3 times during all the time I was in College.

Come to MCIR friday night. I'm back in town for the week and I'll be more than happy to BS with you. There will be a group of Ranger/2.3T guys there to learn ALOT of info from.

I'm looking into picking up a used 03 or 04 Saab 9-3. What I want to know, is if the wiring harness's under the hood between the different packages are the same. All 9-3's came with the same 2.0 Turbo (be it 2.0T or 2.0t), but the base model had 175HP, and the Luxury and Sport model had 210HP all from the same engine. Reason I ask if the wireing is the same is I was wondering if swapping computers or getting the ECU re flashed with the better tune is possible between the packages. If I could simply swap to a better ECU, or chip it or whatever in the base model 9-3, then I could save a couple grand on the price and still end up with the higher HP/TQ engine. Hopefully some of you guys will have some sort of insight.

No glorious plans of crushed velvet and a sic ass body kit?

It would be steam cleaning the combustion surfaces though. Cleaning any carbon, and whatever particles may be in the water itself would simply exit out the exhaust. Obviously you wouldn't be putting lake water into the car, but something as simple as water from a dehumidifier would work perfect as its distilled by nature.

It's not that drastic. Since the water would almost instantaneously become steam, the cooling effect would only be minor. Not enough to create a problem I wouldn't think.

I'll agree with that. I'll also admit I've liked the buldgier body of the TA over the comparable Camaro.

Are you serious? There has never been a generation where the Camaro and Firebird ever looked 100% different. It's kinda hard when the two cars are the same platform.

I have a profound fondness for hot chicks that put themself on display for the whole world like this. A+ for her.

Which totally negates the whole safe 5 car distance again.

Even Mapquest directions to get to the Columbus Zoo, were at one time, completely wrong. If coming from the east, then going north on 270, when you got off the highway Mapquest told you to turn left. The Zoo is to the right, had it not been my first time driving to the Zoo myself where I actually had to pay attention to where I was going, I would have seen that as being wrong immediatly. But 20 minutes in the wrong direction with 4 wrong turns we eventually figured out the correct way to go. I will agree though that Garmin is the shit.

We saw an 07 GT3 at the ALMS race. The douchebag who drove it in was proud of the fact that the stock tires on it weren't going to last him more than ~10,000 miles. Sweet ass car though.

Only problem with leaving 5 car lengths, is there is always someone who will jump in between you and the car ahead of you, ultimately fucking up that car length rule. It's inevitable.

$100 for 5 cats seems way low. We took my cat off my 94 Ranger to the scrap yard and got $57 for it.

Now please, show me the law where it's okay to drink, drive and crash into a car, but you are not responsible for the damage because someone was getting into the vehicle you struck. Seriously, are you now going to say it wasn't her fault she was drinking in the first place? That it was the bars/friends/alcohol establishments fault for supplying her the booze? Or hell maybe it wasn't her fault for driving at all, maybe its the car dealerships fault for selling her a car in the first place. I mean give this girl a Silver fucking platter why don't you.

I instantly thought of this video after reading the first post. But you guy's might not know what I'm saying.

Meh, Jon Huber ran 8.9 with a 4 cylinder in his 79 Mustang.

Sooo, two Bugatti's, a Lambo, Enzo and Murci Lago? What the hell... how does someone afford this?

Pretty slick,... Looks like they let him run it on the track at one point that weekend. Wish I could have been there at the time to get some pics.

Two Veyrons!? Lucky fuck.

I didn't see the owner of the Veyron to talk to him, so I don't know his name. But is Carty affiliated with any of the GT3, Prototype or GT series race teams? That's the garage it was sitting in. Me and Coty figured the guy lived in Aspen if he could afford a Veyron...

I bet you're damned close though.

The ones out here in Utah aren't so big. The size of a house cat I guess. But they are everywhere.

He had the suspension dropped down with the wing up. Pretty slick ass car. Those rims/tires/rotors look big in pictures. In real life they are HUGE. The width of the rear wheels was insane.

Yah it was pretty dirty. Guy definitely drove it from Colorado. I touched it though and my hand turned to Gold, Fucking GOLD!
