  1. happy b-day
  2. Since my shop I work at has opened its garages to the public for about 2 years now, every BMW I have seen seems to have either spun bearings or Catastrophic engine failure. Normally we tell them to go to the dealer then they tell us how much they will charge then we under cut it by almost $2k or more then I'm stuck with some European car expert In Bay 4 with a engine in 10 billion pieces over 5000 tags where sensors hook up and calling BMW for either parts numbers or .PDF schematics. You would think BMW would be good at making a engine by now. This is probably the 4th one this month. Is it common for BMW engines to Seize or self destruct? or are Metro Detroit area Beamer owners just unlucky? Anyway i just stopped to say hey because i haven't been on in a while.
  3. I recently bought a car and bought it with one payment the dealer was shocked and confused. I have been off the boards for awhile and something major has happened. Well Lets just say by 2010 if everything stays the same my retirement fund will be 7 digits big. And I its hard to keep my hands off it I want a Koiensegg CCX so bad...... But that wont happen yet...
  4. I only use Asbestos pads and Shoes. Zero Fade and Lung Cancer whats not to love? besides After being rear ended about 9 times in the Caprice I learned that bumpers were separate from the car for a reason and were never apart of the cars fenders and all.
  5. I guess I'm lucky getting 17 city 27 highway with my beast...
  6. nothing about it said show car as there was brake dust on the rims and some grime under the hood. under the hood looked like under a Vette. not concepty. The emblem i think it was the new one i rember it being really silvery it could of had red i don't remember now. dammit.
  7. its just another car. It really doesn't do anything for me. the interior is weak. the lines are rather curvy in person not as boxy as pictures have it. I have to wait and see how it does but i think it will do as good as the GTO, but i hope a i am wrong. As the crowds around it where pretty big as people where trying to figure out what it was. it looks like the new emblem is staying. the wheels look nice and under the hood is very clean. Im up in the air about this one. i would have took pics but i didnt expect to see a G8 chillin around.
  8. I cant stand macs Give me a computer with XP or windows 2000. any day! Every time i used a mac its either froze crashed or some other screwy compatibility problem with osX. Also there price tag is hefty. maybe i have bad luck or something but i guess until windows goes bankrupt i will stay with windows.
  9. i feel sorry for any one born on jan 31 in 78 since there song was Stayin alive
  10. Not true RPM has nothing to do with performance. The only thing it has is a tad faster Seek time. 10k Raptor has 4.6ms But only has Sata 1.5 interface for a 150gb it cost about 180 while a Caviar has 8.7ms time and has a Sata 3.0 interface for 160 cost about 59 So if you want one nosiey ass HDD with a slower interface and spend 3x as much. Than be my guest. Its more for Bragging rights. What you should look for is The Cache 16mb and SataII or 3.0 interface. As For Vista Wait a couple of years Its so unstable and non of my devices were compatible. there is no drivers out for it yet either gaming is rather slow on it
  11. poorly designed i know of 2 19 year kids that died because it exploded in a light fender bender.
  12. I hope you got strong arms that is not for a open lake environment that is for wide slow moving rivers. For open lakes you go long skinny enclosed kayaks. Just a heads up.
  13. Hope you like 16 hour flights!! Good luck!
  14. well you should not have got on that plane with those crazy looking people in row 47 A,B, and C. Now you have Tuberculous... wait... OH Trail blazer I say go for the Trailblazer SS!!!
  15. should of went with Mushkin! XP2-6400 4-4-3-10 1T @ 1.95v 800mzh or i can bump it up to 5-5-5-13 2T @ 2.15v also it has Micron D9 chips. although the ram cost $160 for 2x1 gb sticks. Also I have a Clr CMOS button on my motherboard so if I F something up in bios i just pres the button and turn it on bam everything goes back to stock settings or one of the 8 bios configurations i can save for later use.
  16. yeah its a very demanding game. go into RORconfig.exe and set everything on low
  17. Your life is NOT a cluster f@#k that changes daily. You don't have to live everyday with massive amount of guilt over your sholder Theres not a list of people that want you dead Theres no bounty price for you Your not on a Federal watch list Every time there is a horrible crime your not questioned. You can be seen in public with out filing papers. . . . Trust me I'm pretty happy with life it has its ups and downs but overall you cant look down at life everyday just push through and appreciate all you have. Since Its more than what some have.
  18. yes thats a flatbed doing a wheelie with a Rally truck in the bed.
  19. Well Its something i really can't discuss in a public forum. It would be illegal. It deals with something to do with a court marshal and a crime against your ally. It was really shady. If you want to know some basic details drop me a PM, but i can't go into full detail.
  20. rigs of rods its a very basic driving game with no real task its been in development for quite some time. but the physics is phenomenal. And since the code is basic you can mess with the vehicles torque engine to even make enough torque to rip the axle out. http://rigsofrods.blogspot.com/ http://repository.rigsofrods.com/files/windows/RoR-0.31a.zip theres to download if you mess around with it check out there forum it explains a lot about it and how to mod it or just ask me theres also a download section where people post there own cars they make. its very fun to jump the semi pulling a traior or do wheelies in a tow truck. but it replicates tire roll and failure also when you hit a pot hole the whole car flexes its amazing.
  21. "Why the SMART Twin Turbo tuned Diesel Bus proposal did NOT pass"
  22. Um yeah I am banned from CA UK and the rest of the Europe so I have no need for one. As for why i am banned its a long story but I can get into Canada by boat almost any day.
  23. yeah i have 2 PS2 the original first ones and a slim line. my original one started doing that thing were it wouldn't read DVD's or blue disc playstation games. Then i heard of Tech school that fixed them for free since they used it in a lab for some Electrical college then once i got it back i tore it apart looked at what they did then went to radio shack bought 10 cent parts and charged people $40 to fix it. although its been a good 2 years since i heard of the problem
  24. Wheres My Super Cub! I will fly myself! but finally there first big move sicne what 1974? was it
