The better things get, the more I miss who I was during the bad times.

Anyone here intersted in a 1500d on ebay so you can use the live cashback? Just wanted to give you all the option before I throw it on DIYMA. I figure $350 shipped if regular transaction, $400 through ebay/pp to cover my fees.

if it doesn't come back, it'll never be the same

redline 4th gear at 140? the 5th gear on a car like that would be tall as fuck. and shifting into 3rd....you'd probably lose the car
-
guy is totally BS'ing about racing not joking...this is what he said yea i was racing a corvette, at about 140 i started catching up with him, i was redlining 4th, slam it in to 5th but missed it and hit 3rd, i thought i killed the car" ....and the retard he's talking to believes him

fingernails....that's the sole reason the gf still has the tips of her fingers. I can't stand watching her with a knife

and now i have a tracking number.... good job jason

looks like i'm being scammed or blazinglow is just a dick, i purchased the 1500d and 100.2 from him, he claimed my shipping address wasn't valid through fedex (my pp shipping addy has a PO box followed by physical addy). that was roughly two weeks ago, I e-mailed him telling him i needed some proof of shipping as he hadn't e-mailed and had avoided SSA (hadn't logged in) since asking about my address. He sent a PM yesterday with this... "Hello? are you there? I have a tracking number i just would like to hear from ya first because you threatened me across paypal... Thanks" obviously just buying more time on his end probably trying to wait until i can't do anything. I filed the claim with paypal and I'll give him until friday before calling his local police department and file with my credit card. I'll also be more than happy to call the courthouse and pray that whatever his fines were that he had to pay off left him with some sort of probation. I really hate ppl sometimes

do those wheels match?

Yeah liking it is a matter or taste, but you have to respect a fast car, no matter how it gets down the track. what is not respected is 4 bangers w/ fart mufflers... Or just some grandma import running 16.4x and talking chit to a LS1 Truck only to get stomped. I agree completely. those bastages gave us a bad rep, specially after F&F came out. But mine is a track car only now, the prodrive spool in my tranny wouldn't allow me to drive it on the street anyway. I never liked the sound of exhaust on it, I've always ran open, currently mine is dumping out behind the driver side slick, or about 20 inches of downpipe after the turbine side exducer. The class I run is proam, I have to run stock dash,doors,factory glass,no wheelie bars,no methanol etc. Basically a street trim car. We are allowed two power adders and unlimited engine mods. I've always felt there was two groups: 1. Us, meaning real/or true performance imports. 2. The Fast & furious group of crap. ghey wings,bodykits,colors, fart cans etc. I have a F.A.S.T. engine management w/ software and communication cable if anyone is interested in a stand alone system. Uses GM style plugs for sensors. So if a car has a body kit it falls under the fast and the furious to you? Or are you saying ppl that rice up their cars with looks and chit exhaust and no real performance upgrades? it does to me, unless there's a real reason for the body kit, which 999,999:1,000,000 times is not the case. So there is no performance car to you unless it's a muscle car? I love it when people post assumptions. Where did anyone even post the words, "muscle car." Face it, the majority of the import "tuners" are ricers. They're nothing more than posers with annoying cars, annoying body kits, and annoying exhaust.. There is nothing performance-oriented about their vehicles. And the bee-hive, fart can sound is not cool. You can polish a turd, but it's still a turd. i couldn't agree more, and anyone that knows me knows i'm not a huge fan of muscle cars. They're nice but i will probably never ever own one, if i was going to own a car from the 60s or 70s it would be european. And i fully believe that ANY car can be a performance car, but not every car is a performance car.

Eh, not really. Unlike ICIX, there's really too many people I still consider friends to leave here for long. Unless we all find another place... Doesn't mean I'll recommend anything SSA again, though. find......make on a positive note, jesus christ that girl had a fantastic ass, no pics though, i'm at barnes and noble

holy shit i can't believe where this has gone

What did i miss that ramos posted?
-
does that mean you're leaving?
-
yea there really wasn't a reason for that deletion unless there was more to it than i saw......
-
??? Paraphrasing here, but Dave basically made a comment about how he didn't know what next years' plans were, but he'd do whatever worked out best for Team Hybrids...apparently, that's deletable now. This is basically a half-ban at this point...and that doesn't sit well with me. SSA deserves better. if that is true.... yea, i saw the original before it disappeared

tube car audio amplifiers?
vladd replied to bristabrock's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
That's butler, and they're still not all tube. -
great for acceleration.... not sure how the physics for cornering would be affected, i suppose that matters a lot on the suspension and weight distribution. on another note....house drinks grolsch

i disagree to the 2nd post.....that's just someone who spends more time learning that expecting someone to teach. welcome aboard

tube car audio amplifiers?
vladd replied to bristabrock's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
Pretty sure the butlers are still hybrid and not all-tube. No clue on the milberts though. Why are you wanting an all-tube setup? -
Thank you people of ssa, now i have my final system for my lexus es300
vladd replied to obcaraudio's topic in General Audio
Yea i agree with the above. if you plan on running that without upgrading your electrical, plan on replacing components of the audio and/or car because of failure. -
