DOH! I need booze. mmmm ... booze.

 

We've got 11 confirmed but the weather is focking with us, again 70% chance tomorrow, ugh! I can't remember a June this wet -- ever!!!

If we postpone tomorrow, we'll have to do it week after next as next Wednesday is the 4th.

 

The $5 ones have a dial and the valve so it's easier to bleed excess air.

 

weather today was nasty, got to drive a bunch of bimmers for charity this morning though. I never understood why those cars cost so much, after driving around in a couple today, I get it now. I also got to drive the Z4 coupe, holy crap that car was a blast, I was halfway tempted to go off the route they send you on and take it down 2222 or something real quick-like I also dropped my car off again, as it's running like crap...again. grrrrr.

 

woohoo! 12 hour shift. It's like I'm at Sebring.

 

Wonder whats Mord doin...been a while since she's posted...

 

Sorry to hear about your car Canary, hope it gets resolved at the dealer.

 

getting a new engine sometime soon, just waiting for it to arrive at the dealer. I wish they'd give the cash value instead, I'm sure for what it costs to replace, I could get something in there that would do the trick

 

Haa haa...I know right

 

What is Engine Brake? I saw some signs are Austin that said No Engine Brake by City Ordince.

 

that's when the semi-trucks downshift and use the engine to slow down instead of keeping it in gear and using their brakes, when they do that the truck makes a a REALLY loud pissed off "ahahahahahaah" stuttering kind of sound that can be heard from here to Alaska.

 

I like that sound...

And this week I learned that when you replace your gutted out cat with a resonator (of a different metal compared too the rest of the pipe). You get 4" exhaust tips that are glad too melt anything in there paths... This only awkwardly seems too happen when I keep it in high revs, thus creating more heat for that damned resonator too expand and push my tips up...

I love Agency Powers exhaust, but the tips melting everything is getting too my head...

 

Heh I got a stock exhaust system I could help you out with...

 

Now THAT's a nice cage...

 

That's the Mazdaspeed cage ... for RHD vehicles. Wonder if anyone has tried to put it in a US spec LHD one yet.

 

I would imagine it's symmetrical in contact points no?

I bet it would fit...

That's nice enough for daily drivers...I likes...

 

BTW, I dont have my phone...I'm in SA...We can prolly do this during the weekday if you want...

 

Progressive or Eibach sways? Hmm....

 

Progress Tech

 

I must still be drunk , why did I say Progressive? Anyway yeah Twink I am leaning towards the progress sways. The fact that they are adjustable and are at a damn good price is a big selling point. Now lean like a cholo. Damn I hate that song....

 

Ha, not as bad as...party like a rockstar...t-t-t-totally dude...

 

car goes in muhnday for the engine swap to begin, man I hope they don't manhandle my car while working on it, having a nice new ding/chip free paint job the last 3 weeks has been nice, even if it's rained almost every day and I can't enjoy it yet :P lol I'll keep y'all updated as things progress, hopefully I"ll be the only gulf region member of this, "club".

 

The dealer diagnose an engine problem?

 

They probably said, "we'll have to stick a V8 in there."

 

nope, car's been in for the same issues a couple of times, guess they finally pushed mazda hard enoughto just give me a new engine and be done with it. (hopefully anyway)
