Where did you see me? An 8 drove into the parking lot next door a couple of days ago, but I have no clue who it was.

False alarm skwidd, it was All_Day_Dre. You probably saw that s2 metropolitan Grey 8 that's in kenner. Never met the guy but I see him all the time I think he lives on Loyola behind Walmart.

I'll be heading down to the lakefront and down town today while this decent weather holds. Figures it would rain ever single day I'm on vacation.

Never heard of a flush for a manual.

It's pretty easy to do, I went with red line m90. A little harder to shift when cold but it stop my grinding when I would shift to 5th for 2 years and 22kmiles. It just started to grind again when I up shift to 5th, gonna change it again soon.

No clue, I've done all my own installs, and I'm pretty good too. But I refuse to put one in this car (mine). To much of an car to weigh it down with subs and amps, plus I have a addiction problem...I always got a keep adding or upgrading once I start, it killed my last car...

I can install. I used to build cop cars so it would definitely be professional. I would keep the factory head unit IMO. I can let you see my setup and you could go from there.

I am easy to spot. Have zoom-zoom stickers on the front and back windows and a Mazdatrix sticker on rear window driver's side. Yeah, didn't think it was you at the Methodist church parking lot. hehe.

I haven't seen the dude since.

Also, my car is FREAKIN dirty. Stepdaughter wrecked the Mustang, so it is sitting in my driveway and I really need to wash my car. Mustang cannot be moved. Amazingly, she f'd up the tie rods and blew out the steering column. Don't ask.
