hearing about the 'bird on the road makes me want to get my engine swap done asap

[JimJ 11]

I like that wheel style, they're just too big.

websters is an A4 IIRC, i'm pretty sure he pulled all the pics from here when the whole team ssa shit hit the fan

hit the fan? that obviously happened while I was not around.

Long story...but his Scans in the kick do very well

The Court approves the corrected referee's report and John Bruce Thompson is permanently disbarred, effective thirty days from the date of this order so that respondent can close out his practice and protect the interests of existing clients. If respondent notifies the Court in writing that he is no longer practicing and does not need the thirty days to protect existing clients, this Court will enter an order making the permanent disbarment effective immediately. Respondent shall accept no new business from the date this order is filed.

Score one for the good guys

Friend called me saying her car wouldn't start (mid/late '90s Toyota Corolla) and the battery was dead, so went over there and jumped it, cranked but wouldn't start. So I'm standing there looking at this little 4cyl wondering why it wouldn't fire I decided to check the oil.

Bone Fricking Dry.

I had 3/4 a quart in my trunk so I dumped that in there and it got it on the dipstick but still below the add mark.

Left the jumpers on it for a little while, wouldn't start, then took them off and it wouldn't even try to crank so the battery is toast. I've had a problem before of if the battery is toast it won't start on jumpers.

moral of the story:

CHECK YOUR DAMN OIL LEVEL.

[topgun 262]

UPS man just dropped off a roll of Raamat though.

[topgun 262]

Oil Top!

[topgun 262]

Teh Corolla didn't start, I just left it to bitch at it another day.

[topgun 262]

This is not the first time I've gone to help fix a car problem and the oil was either grossly overfull or empty.

[KU40 173]

Are you sure it isn't seized? My gf seized her engine from lack of oil. Oh i just saw you said it cranked but wouldn't start. guess it's not seized.

[topgun 262]

Nope, not seized, don't hear any metal on metal either so the engine should still be good.

I should probably do an oil change on the van when I'm home, it's about time for it, and I could put winter oil in it...need to do a full tuneup before 200k though. I can change plugs from inside the cab

[ABXX49 20]

Lucky, I just had to change plugs on my super coupe....that was a fun time.

[MKader17 332]

the wing, wheels, and tires are the only things that really bother me

I could probably live with the wheel/tire combo if they were 17's but that wing....... yikes

I'm sure the stiff suspension and short sidewall aren't helping it hook up at all

X2

I could live with the wing but to me the tires AND rims are to big. I'd like more sidewall as well.

As far as traction. Slicks FTW!

[JimJ 11]

I love the style of the wheels, they're just too big.

personally, I think there's something really badass about a car dropped over big balloons

[topgun 262]

Well the test raped me, but it did use lube...

[topgun 262]

Time to start predrinking before the bars.

[topgun 262]

Got an email saying the 12v power supply for my DCX is shipping out tomorrow.

[JimJ 11]

I raped both tests this week, they needed lube.

[MKader17 332]

Oh yeah I would go with a more hidden exhaust as well
