our science library is 3 floors, but it's rare when I see anyone else take the stairs, just ridiculous

I'm confizziled. For anything above 3.2% you have to go to an actual liquor store to get 6% beer and hard liquor, you can only buy 3.2% donkey piss in grocery stores/gas stations. Is that what you were askign? Damn, ya'll system is fudgeed. We can buy 6%, wine and below at grocery stores/gas stations, and anything above has to go to ABC kind of store. everything up to and including Everclear in our grocery stores

basically my current stance on it as well Personally I think they screwed it up. Funny that one has a trailer hitch. lol, don't dare mention a trailer hitch on the first gen. forum, you'd think putting one on a Camaro was a cardinal sin

Front Suspension Rebuild and Power Disc Brake Conversion
Acidburn posted a topic in Automotive and Performance
Here's the build log for the Camaro. I was a little hesitant at first because this is my first major mechanical project. I'm replacing all bushings in the front suspension with poly bushings, converting to power front disc brakes, switching to Hotchkis springs, and replacing all brake lines with stainless. I started on this last week, and I've gotten to the point where everything that needs to come off is off. Here are some pics of things so far. What I started with: Goodbye spindle/drum (I'd just like to say that the most useful tool in this whole thing is an air hammer with pickle fork attachment. Those ball joints were original and did not want to let go): No more master cylinder (This was also great fun because on my car, the clevis pin is blocked by a support so the whole pedal assembly has to come out.): Everything gone!: Well, there it is: And the new tie rods getting ready: I'll continue to update this as I go along, but progress may slow a bit because classes start on Monday. -

Definitely... <---- would so own a RWD econobox/k-car/subcompact if they ever sold a decent one stateside.... 1st or 2nd gen Nova? Or the original, the Ford Falcon. My friend has a Ford Falcon. Such a lovely car. I think I have pics of it somewhere post 'em up

Front Suspension Rebuild and Power Disc Brake Conversion
Acidburn replied to Acidburn's topic in Automotive and Performance
Just thought I'd update this with pics from the rear suspension upgrade I did a couple months ago. I installed the Hotchkis rear leaf springs and new shocks all around. Leaf spring out The Hotchkis/Bilstein shock absorbers The gas tank had to come out to get the rear shackles in/out. Not too much rust there All back together -
Ready to put the amps back in and wire 'em up

I would definitely take even a Falcon over most of the new FWD crap produced today Who wouldn't? Its a Ford, come on now. You wouldn't. A 2000 Accord is definitely considered "new FWD crap"

I still go back and forth about it....

You are voting v6 > v8? I know, I know a Caddy is a GM. Not saying GM's interiors are spectacular, but I really hate the Charger's interior the CTS exterior is far better looking too, IMO And I chose to not support the mockery made of historic model names
