  1. Anything look good for cyber Monday? Things considered- Good/cheap tools Max Jack home lift Good Tablet
  2. Correct. For whatever reason an already swapped car fetches a premium, but its easy to make it cheap. More and more it seems people would rather pay than mod. I blame hipsters Only time its not super cheap is if you use an AL block, real Ls1/2/3/9, and/or a T56. Even a 99 Camaro Ls1/T56 drop out still goes for $3500+ (where as a 5.3/T530 or 400 can be had for $6-800 complete) I just got lucky finding a pile-o' parts for dirt that included a real Ls1 and T56
  3. Killer deal. Anyone know if they will do something similar for Black Friday or Cyber Monday?
  4. Is there any service like this for other transactions-say car parts?
  5. Man I though this was common knowledge? Basically any BB turbo in their lineup can be oil-less (really, all they do is stuff their regular BB CHRA with grease) They are fully serviceable, but not sure of claimed longevity. I know a few people running them, none of which has locked up (yet) Air Bearing turbos have been around even longer, but none I know specifically for Automotive suppliers. http://www.nasa.gov/centers/glenn/about/fs14grc.html People that make them http://www.ofttech.com/ And fix them http://www.airbearingsolutions.co.uk/about-us
  6. If that sells for 21k I'm selling my Rx-7 for 40k. Fun car, but the power to weight is not going to be out of this world...
  7. Stop it! Don't make me buy one...
  8. Buddy of mine just picked up an 01 V8, auto, for 5k. Do they really depreciate that badly? Car is clan, needs an exhaust leak fixed and the drive-shaft mod done. And his being a V8-is that a GTS? I actually like the SUV more than I expected too.
  9. No, but he would be if we was not set up at this point. If he makes 500kx20 years and invested even as little as 10% wisely, he should have a net worth of well over 15 million. If he had a savage broker than advised him to go all-in in 2010, we would have over 100 million easy. And still having a 500k income. I doubt D wiggs is seeing anything better than that from the trust. Also as people have noted here-Wigg's dad was a trust fund baby himself. He on the other hand used that money to make more money. His father and grandfather are probably turning over in their grave.
  10. You nerds got snow down there? Linn take a pic of that thing in the sun, and in incandescent light (like a Gas station at night) I am really digging the color Didn't see it mentioned- AT or 6MT?
  11. For 70k, I'd get A used Viper GTS Turbo it Sabb 9-2x Wagon for a fun classy winter beater And use the 5k left over for a 4 day Vegas bender. With the ridiculous loss of initial Value, I still don't think I will ever buy a new car for myself.
  12. Fuck that's LOSING money if compared to even a minimum wage job. I can believe Ben moved to San fran to do this
  13. I'd say stuck closed. Stuck open in this weather, it will never heat up.
  14. I saw that.... how does it work? Does it just rev-match if you are on the brake while downshifting?
  15. She trains at my gym/club. She usually smells pretty foul.
  16. Very cool- awesome guy and fun to race against
  17. I didn't know John opened up a shop! Does he still campaign the Neon in IFO?
  18. Few places up near Cleveland that do great work.....
  19. Can you imagine if they went TT-V8.... :megusta:
  20. hard to say. If the trust has 40-50 Million, and if his dad was smart and only allowed him to see XXX of it at a time, he may have payment until he dies, But at this rate, he wont make anything of it and nothing will be left at the end. #thanksdad
