  1. Hardcore motherfucker (in life as well) right there.
  2. Too bad it's gonna be somewhere around 85 g's. Just what I heard, not for sure.
  3. Hahahahaha..... Pete Ricart. He makes me laugh out loud. X's are now the pics btw.
  4. I lost mine before I was 18. I can't remember at all what I had to do. I think I called the BMV up and asked what to do. Hopefully they won't screw you around with your paperwork like they did mine. It's suppose to be you lose your license for 90 days, my paperwork (which they dicked me on) was flipped around for awhile and it really took 6 months to get my license back. Went to some BMV an hour away (was trying to cut the paper trail down to get my L back sooner) and waited 2 hours, just for them to tell me that my papers got sent to a different BMV. Good luck.
  5. 1st thing I thought when I saw that turbo is that it's WAY too small and that it was a Holset turbo (what Cummings use(d) on the Dodge). 4 bangers use those more often now and they are a great setup on those. Definitly not a V8 turbo as you have learned. As for putting a turbo(s) on a V6, it can be just as driveable as anything else. And can be just as potent as any turbo'd V8. Whether you use 1 big turbo or 2 smaller ones is your call/and how much room you have. I've been giving the turbo V6 some serious thought over a V8 w/ any power adder. Anthony, let me know when you get started on this turbo thing. I'd like to check/help it out.

    Wow...what is it with you corolla guys? All the same......
  7. I found myself watching this vid about 10 times for some reason. Very nice car there.
  8. TurboRust is pretty close to what I think, except for his picks. As with any 4wd suv front end stuff is always the weakest link. Ball joints, pitman arms, drag links, etc. will always need replaced. So throw that stuff out of consideration if it's holding you back between suv's and gas mileage is just out of the question too Here's how I see it and my picks from best to worst: -4 Runner: Best resale value, Toyota reliability, 2nd nicest interior, parts are higher priced except for the QX4. -Tahoe: $400 fuel pump, about $100 for an injector(s) (both tend to go bad). Parts other than above are reasonable (reason why I pick it over the QX4), but I'd say lowest resale value. -Qx4: Nicest interior, nice luxury look, Nissan reliability, super expensive parts though, good resale value -Expedition: It's just last I'd definitly look into the Envoy as Turbo said before I went Tahoe. I've been driving this 99 Envoy now, and I couldn't be happier. It's smaller than the newer bigger Envoy body styles (it's like Ant's blazer for example). But this Envoy is just as pimp as any newer/ other lux suv. Ex., sunroof, heated leather seats (w/Envoy stitched in all the headrests), nice/clean wood grain touches, heated retractable mirrors, power everything, 6 disk cd changer, info center above head, 4x4, and HID headlights. Might want to look into these as well.
  9. If your not getting into the car/fixing cars ALOT, I second Rotarded and say get Craftsman stuff. But remember Craftsman only lifetime warranties hand tools, not air stuff. Now if you want a good 1/2" impact gun, I'd go with Ingersol Rand Titainium because it's what I use on an almost daily basis. I can't remember what the model number is, but it has 6 or 700 ft. lbs of "tightening" force, along with 1000 ft. lbs of "breaking" force. Snap-On came out with a gun that supposidly could do the same numbers with same air pressure but faster response. Guy I work with bought the Snap-On gun, and mine has outperformed his more than once in breaking bolts/nuts apart when his wouldn't. Not to mention the IR weighs about 3lbs as compared to the Snap-On one which weighed I believe was 7lbs. Expect to spend about $300 for a good impact gun though In your quest for tools your going to find that they are VERY expensive, even for Craftsman stuff.
  10. Whew, now I feel better about myself. Thanks for the ego booster
  11. I thought I saw drug money residue on that car too.
  12. Yeah that direct X thing was what I was looking for, thanks. But those posted are nice also. Keep posting them, I'm interested in what everyone has.
  13. So I got this new pc together (thanks Ken) and I'm looking for something to put as a wallpaper. I remember a thread started before the Vbull switch about this or maybe it was 'your desktop setup' and there were quite a few nice setups/wallpapers. So I was hoping that some of you wouldn't mind posting your wallpapers. One inparticular stands out that had all the system info as a background if I remember correctly. Anyway feel free to post them if you don't mind.
  14. Shhh...some of the vette owners will think that's an insult......
  15. "You teach me to play the football?"
  16. Big thanks to Ken this past Sunday. He built my pc for me (i was there, but had no clue) and put in the software that I didn't buy for me as well. Even after my pc was giving him some problems (which he found/fixed like a pro) he put in extra time fixing it and getting it right. Ken also went through my pc build list and made suggestions on how he would better build it before I made the purchase. I'd recommend Ken to anyone who is looking to build or just needs some pc help (if he has the time). So thanks again BTW kids: If your looking to buy or flip a house, make sure it has a real foundation and not just sitting on concrete blocks
  17. Saw this bad boy in person on Sun. and it's worth $600 with ease. Super clear picture (HD). I'd buy it, but no room.
  18. I just went to Insight today and picked up the self install pack (free if your already a TW customer) instead of waiting/making an apointment and did it myself. Even my noob ass got it to work.
  19. I think the cop had the right to open fire after warning him the 1st time. I know I would have. Wonder what some of our law authorities on CR would have done in that situation. Too bad that shot that hit the guys' driver side window missed his head, had to have been very close to nailing him. Fucking worthless piece of shit right there.
