  1. What he said^^^ You're asking us for advice, but not giving enough information. Why not just ask him what he is doing discussing your medical history with other people? People avoid direct confrontation, so call his ass out. In a professional way, of course
  2. surprised with how big of a city columbus is, that there's not one big, nationally known, mustang-specific shop. op, you have to pay-to-play. most shops can complete work for you, and satisfy the customer 95% of the time. its the 5% of the time when things go wrong, that we worry about. pick the shop that has the best record of taking care of that 5%, and consider the small extra that you pay in labor as 'insurance'.
  3. i buy these once a week to feed to my GTR. j/k looks good in white. congrats.
  4. for some reason i agreed to add onto our house, and add tons of shit, gut the kitchen, etc.. not really going to benefit me directly, and is literally going to cost the price we originally paid for the house.
  5. i can't even figure out how to upload it to youtube. am i fucking retarded or something?? i'll try again tonight. right now its in windows media player.
  6. ecutek with john visconti. i have four maps----91, 93, e70, e85. i've only used the 91 map. i don't have good, reliable 93 octane here. hopefully going to switch to e85 shortly. i daily drive this car, the wife drives it, and i'll drive the thing right through the winter here, so i'm not going to go crazy with the car. yet.
  7. + rep Unique car, welcome to the site
  8. beauty is in the eye of the beerholder. sometimes i like to dress mine up with the stylish eyebrows above the headlights, or a rainbow sticker or two.
  9. i love the tailpipes, hope they stay
  10. careful with that wing. i've seen people get those trapped under low overpasses
  11. i need my car to be reliable in wisconsin snow. maybe next year i'll pull out the stops. i'm having too much fun revving the car and making BOV noises.
  12. i remember my first rainstorm :dumb:
  13. thanks guys. the car literally does not feel as fast as it is. anyone know any easy software to edit gopro videos??? i have a few of the runs on a windows media player file, but there's tons of dead space where i'm waiting to run
  14. The mustang just got picked up by ford. Lemon. I made the right decision though. There was a modded '13 running 12's. lol
  15. I have gopro footage from the exterior of the car, hopefully I'll get that up later today
  16. Not anytime soon. I'm enjoying it right now. Anything more and I just can't trust the transmission. I think I will be satisfied with an e85 time for a while. This is my daily driver, including the winter.
  17. There was no way around it. Had to go through
  18. decided to take my GTR to the strip for test and tune night. ended up running 4 times, with the following times:: 10.95 10.90 10.8x 10.81 all trap speeds were 127.xx, with 1.6x 60' times. one thing i didn't do was run the car with the comfort shock settings, which i should have done--and i had 3/4 tank of gas. had a blast, blowing away an f-body, a viper, and finally some kid in a modded wrx-sti (big turbo). he actually called me out. he was probably 20 buses behind me. asked me what i ran, and said if he would have had his launch down we would have been side-by-side :dumb: this run was after a little cooldown. http://imageshack.us/a/img607/7429/dsc00640td.jpg http://s690.photobuc...trdrag.mp4.html this was my first run. some random guy sent me a copy he videoed with his iphone. i was running a gutted, big block nova. he beat my reaction time and 60', but i ran him down at 1000' and beat his 11.2, with a 10.9. you can see my smoke the tires at the top of first. i really couldn't get the tires dry after going through the water box. all that, and i only have a 91 octane tune and blow off valves :fuckyeah: can't wait to run e85 hopefully, i'll have some gopro footage up later today
  19. The car could have used a seven speed. You're pretty close to 3k rpms in sixth gear at 80mph. I don't even think my lsx cars are at 2k rpms at that speed, certainly not the vette. Not a huge deal
  20. lol i'm in the middle of remodeling our house, building an addition. so we're having to get rid of all the old stuff----appliances, siding, kitchen cabinets, etc etc etc. i don't have the patience to be put into a situation similar to the seller in this case---when you're buying used shit, the only time you can assume the product is yours, is when you show up with cash in hand. people who buy used shit can be flaky as hell--that's just the way it is.
  21. i would love to own a 60's impala with hydraulics--a lowrider. why the fuck?? i have no idea
  22. i'd have a ferrari/lambo/whatever if i wasn't married, or didn't have kids. honestly, i doubt i'd be nearly as happy.
  23. This is why I don't sell shit ever. It goes right to good will, or donated to habitat for humanity/etc, and I write off on taxes. I don't buy used shit either. I realize it makes more sense for some people to buy used shit---this is part of the experience. Deal with it.
