Hey guys. I have to take the little boy to the doctor this afternoon at 3:45pm. I should be back in a hour or so. If anyone gets up this way sooner than that, you are more than welcome to come to the house till I get home. Mi casa, es su casa.

i pulled the engine out of the red one that was locked up i could just turn it enough to feel it pumping air out of the plug holes so i said the hell with it and took a chance. the freeze plugs were blown out of the back of the engine so im assuming someone never took care of it judging from the 1/16th of an inch of carbon built up on the rear rotor. neways im off to the beach, ttyl.

Maybe. I have so many stick notes at work with drawings/diagrams/measurements/etc its crazy. Plus I have about 100+ pages of RX stuff I have printed out. I was thinking "Hell, if I cannot decide which port to have... Why not just have them all???"

I'll get some better pictures in a bit. I gotta go chase down this Black S4 I have seen driving around here lately. I have seen him 3 times, but as usual I am in teh protege

Drove down the end of the street and whaddya know... they drove by! So with the car cold and loooow on gas I followed them. I keep my fan off when I start it until I get out of the neighborhood. Well, I got out and had no chance to turn on my fan...


Do you see where this is going? Jk.

Well they pull out and I start following them, but at somewhat of a distance (tryin to get some air in my rad). Then I popped my hood and that helped somewhat. They pulled into the neighborhood beside mine. Said hey, met 2 guys who looked about 18ish. Smelled a little "funny" *cough cough*

Dunno if they wanted to go to the meet... They seemed enthusiastic about it, but it seemed fake. Kinda like when the wife says she has a headache.

Oh well.

So I came across this 80 SA, a lot like mine, same color. The guy had a turbo 20B in it. Sounded good. He said he'll be at the meet on the 13th.

A "funny" smell...




Oh, and seriously, I think I can get ahold of a guy with a PP 12a first gen. He brings it out every once in a while.

That looks almost like my Compaq. I use it to tune my buddy's Power Commander on his bike. His Sony laptop has Windows ME, and the software will not work with his. My old Compaq has Window 2000 v5.0 and works fine. You should bring it up next time. I have a wireless router at the house .

Its an Acer 5000. I dunno if it is good or not, but it has tons of ports on the side of the comp, plus a DVD drive. Battery lasts about 45 minutes when its off the charger though... Found a new battery on FleaBay for 50 shipped. Not a bad deal for $150

So Sam, I heard something happened with the SA, got any pictures?
