Gotta love the media!! Glad you posted that cause I had lost some respect for this kids character

You wanna know why Mark May hates tOSU? Heres why: OSU 72 vs Pitt 0 from 1996 lol BTW just read an article with Mike Adams, in it he said "Im waiting to see how the appeal works out before deciding what I am going to do". With that, did they lie to Tressel by giving them his word, or did Tress lie to the nation by saying they did?

Ran car fax today, nothing came up, which makes me feel a little better. I have heard just about every "theory" on how to check for crank walk, from the left turn yank, press clutch in and see if rpm's drop, check to see if timing belt moves from side to side...why do you think im asking here lol As for mods I would have to agree that a FMIC and hardpipes will be done. Other then that maybe an exhaust, blowoff valve, lower it and slap some wheels on it. Not going to get insane with this one. Again its the gf's car, she doesn't need anything super fast just something to cruise around town in.

Mallett is light years ahead of Cam Newton yet he gets no real love. I think Mallett will be the best qb in his class no matter if he decides to declare for the draft this year or next.

Whistle should've been blown, but it wasn't. Oh well time for the D to step up

Umm when has Pryor folded, he has lost 4 fucking games lol. 1 of those as a true freshman to a top 5 ranked Penn St team. That should've been forward motion, if they blow this game I wll denounce my fanhood effective imediately

Haha yeah, just seems to be in the right place at the right time always. Although he should've missed the tipped pass a few plays ago lol

+100000000000 I was just texting my buddy telling him how Sanzenbacher is going to be the biggest loss next season. I love him and Boom, all they do is score TD's every damn game.

Funny how before the game Pryor was considered the "cry baby". I hope Heyward and the rest of the Silver Bullets keep beating his ass to the ground.

Mmm didn't know i was trying to make it a world beater? Its my gf's car, she doesn't need anything super fast. I just can't leave anything stock, so was looking for ways to upgrade parts without risking reliability, but thanks for the help. She'd be happy with 13's, its not that hard to do with an AWD DSM, my buddies bone stock 1st gen went 13.4 on street tires with the boost turned up. Ace i'll let you know if we ever decide to get rid of it

O-H TD Sanzenbacher!!!

No its silver, has absolutely no rust. It started out with me and my dad painting the fender, bumper and door on it along with a 65 Impala, for my dad's buddy. It then turned into "Hey Josh, you interested in buying this car?" I am picking it up for under 3k, it has no been modded what so ever. Old man owned it, my dad's buddy took it in on partial trade for a fastback mustang. I started it up yesterday and let it run for a while, it just purred. The water temp was normal, didn't hear any squeeling, ticking, knocking, clutch felt good. I will start it up again tomorrow when I go back up to work on the Impala and check the crank out. I was told you can check for crank walk by driving the car, jerk car to the left and see if the clutch pedal goes to the floor...that sound right? http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/97%20GSX/eclipse.jpg http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/97%20GSX/GSX.jpg

He hired and fired 2 Defensive coordinators, maybe he just sucks at D. BTW OSU is playing pretty decent. Sucks seing Chekwa go down though

I hear Urban Meyer is available...although I'd rather he be the next coach at tOSU, rather then being the next Michigan coach to beat tOSU lol

Not to be too nosey but what did the trip over there run you $$ wise? Mainly looking at how much air and lodging cost really, maybe food prices lol

Pics or b/s

Too soon junior! Now reports are saying nothing is official. My guess is they are waiting to see if Harbaugh is even interested in coming to the cest pool that is known as Ann Arbor. Does he stay in Stanford, goto the NFL or go rebuild in Michigan? I say he does either of the first 2 things I posted. Michigan isn't going to be good anytime soon regardless of who the coach is. They keep RR and well they suck, fire him and get a new coach and guess what, rebuilding time again. Hiring RR was the dumbest thing Michigan could've done when Carr left. He ran a gimick offense in a bullshit conference. Not to mention he isn't very well liked by players, parents and supporters of Michigan football. Rich Rod should be fired though, he is killing them in recruiting. The top Defensive player from Michigan, who grew up a die hard Wolverine fan, just picked Penn St over them. They had a 4star RB commited, he just backed out and verbaled to Bama...you can't win games if you don't get quality players. Don't give me "quality coaching will over come that', Michigan doesn't have either one of those right now lol On a side note, who's ready to watch OSU shut everyone up and beat the shit out of Arkansas? O-H

I am picking up a 97 Eclipse GSX off my dad's buddy. Its too good of a deal to pass up, 84, original miles, mint black interior, virgin as can be, no rust/dents/scratches in the paint. This car will be my gf's play toy and will rarely be beat on, just something for her to cruise around in and get used to boosting. I am a Honda guy mainly and have only tinkered with friends DSM's in the past. I know about the crank walk issues that arise. From what I have read/heard its caused by the clutch throwout bearing? Most people say to put an OEM replacement clutch in rather then some heavy duty one when its time to change that out. Other then that what are some things to look out for going bad, when do things need replaced i.e Timing Belt/Water Pump? If she takes it to the track whats a "safe" rpm to launch it at, being AWD I dont want to start breaking shit left and right. What are some cheap easy mods, that wont require a whole lot of tuning. I have a buddy that is selling his FMIC, IC piping, and blowoff valve. Would these be worth picking up and putting on? Turning the boost up some, safe or just leave it alone and be happy with the 7-8psi (I believe thats stock setting)? Anything I might not have covered please feel free to add. I don't want to hear "Oh god you bought a DSM" or "Sell it" lol, trust me your preaching to the choir. I am anti DSM, however like I stated earlier, it was way too good of a deal to pass up

Well the above mentioned manifold didn't fit so I had to ship it back. Let me tell you, don't ever deal with Fab-Worx out of Florida. They are the shadiest, shittiest shop I have ever come across. 2 months after ordering my manifold I am still waiting on a refund for the downpipe that never arrived and the manifold that didn't fit. I have filed a dispute with bank, they are going to get the money back. Anyways updates!! 12/30/10: Well its seems like forever since I have bought anything for the teg, which is has been quite a while. With that said, I bought some stuff today! Picked up a PWR intercooler and a Limited Edition Black HKS blowoff valve. I got both of these for less then what the bov sells for by its self!! http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/intercooler.jpg http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/hks.jpg 12/31/10: The spending continued today. I had the extra money and took a poll of what to buy between my friends and my gf. The unanimous winner was this. Precision 6262SP JB, .82AR Vband. I bought it from ImportDPS, no one could touch their pricing!! I'll post pics up Thursday when it arrives

I would still call them over hyped Zack, at this point they have only won 1 bowl game, produced 0 all americans, I believe Adams is the only one to even make 1st team all big 10 thus far (brewster might have), I just think when you have the number 1 recruiting class with the number 1 overall player, its NC or bust. If they win the sugar bowl, come back next year light shit up then I think my feelings will change.

They are american pit. My brother inlaw who is huge into Pits stopped by with his new one which is an American pit, they look identical minus colors.

That guy right there is mine now!! The gf went ape shit when she walked in and saw him sitting here. Our son's taking a min to figure out just what the hell he is lol

BTW heres the article I was talking about: http://www.newarkadvocate.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=201012220311

Yeah I think it'd be awesome if they actually brought the railway back to passengers. I think it would help bring the economy back as well.

Nice pictures, I have been interested in going over there. Just wondering how safe it is to travel there...I have heard conflicting stories
