Smile Long overdue Hi!

Hey guys,

Well, due to the new posting requirements to start a new thread around here. I guess it's time for me to start being more active.

For over 5 yrs. now I've managed to get by just purely searching all my questions on the forum and researching lol.

Currently, a broke college student. Used to be a Toyota tech, and now majoring in a geeky major with business and computers XD!

What can I say, I love my 05 sunlight silver eight, approaching 80k miles now on the original engine and still running strong. Planning to do a full NA mod(except porting), parts on the list at the moment include:

  1. AP Pulley
  2. BHR Headers and Midpipe combo (been waiting for it to be finally released >.<)
  3. 4.77 Diff Gears
  4. Cobb Access Port
All in all, hope to get to know you all better around here!

LoL! It's just a few simple clicks of a button, at least when the feature was there for me...

Just needed to be able to navigate folders on your computer and locate the pic haha.

what, phase???? I've done pimples, puberty, marriage(still in that one) kids, puberty(again but not mine thankfully) and now Grandkids. I think the next phase is senility closely followed by death. Being a newbie is a piece of **** in comparison!!!

Seriously, yes. This forum is bloody good fun and I'm enjoying meeting(?????)other people through it. I know the cars staying so I guess I'll be around for quite a while too.

FYI, the >10 posts AND >30 days requirement is to START a thread, restricting new members only in that they can't start threads outside this subforum. No restriction should be in place on posting in an existing thread, even at 0 posts and 1 minute of membership time

Thanks,

Yeah I quickly figured that out after the changes =P
I don't know how to describe the feeling - just didn't like the whole you're a nub category and not having all these fancy features lol.

All is well now though.

Bastard!!!!! I think I got it right. Technology, as much as I love it my old and tired brain does struggle a bit. The sad thing is that compared to most of my (same age ) mates I'm the one that's onto it!!!
As for the vampire thing, it's only our time zone that saves me, I'm a woosy (wimp) about sleep. It's 8am now and I'm off to work half a day as its Saturday.
Shucks, my first friend Too much???? Lol
