Its all good, I understand, werent really missing much anyways. A civic did run into a old 80's chevy van in the parking lot of the IHOP but that was the highlight of the night. Bunch of ghetto bastards and they're muscle car-noise makers at the meet spot, typical.

See you guys in two weeks, this friday I am headed to a friends house in oakland to celebrate the conviction of a mother ****** that killed my friend 3 years ago, gotta love the judicial system...anyways, have fun getting the new coil kit, definitely next on my todo list.

Maybe she meant: "It's ok if you go, but I won't use the strap on tonight if you do."

Subject: GPS & MOBILE PHONE alert"

Two Imporatant Messages !!! Please read.
1. GPS and Garage Door Operner
A couple of weeks ago a friend told me that someone she knew had their car broken into while they were at a football match. Their car was parked on the green which was adjacent to the football stadium and specially allotted to football fans. Things stolen from the car included a garage door remote control, some money and a GPS which had been prominently mounted on the dashboard. When the victims got home, they found that their house hadbeen ransacked and just about everything worth anything had been stolen. The ! thieves had used the GPS to guide them to the house. They then used the garage remote control to open the garage door and gain entry to the house. The thieves knew theowners were at the football game, they knew what time thegame was scheduled to finish and so they knew how much timethey had to clean up the house. It would appear that they had brought a truck to empty the house ofits contents.

2. MOBILE PHONE

I never thought of this.......This lady has now changed her habit of how she lists her names on her mobile phone after her handbag was stolen. Her handbag, which contained her cell phone, creditcard, wallet... Etc... Was stolen. 20 minutes later when she called her hubby, from apay phone telling him what had happened, hubby says 'I received your text Asking about our Pin number and I've replied a little while ago.' When they rushed down to the bank, the bank staff told them all the money was already withdrawn. The thief had actually used the stolen cell phone to text'hubby' in the contact list and got hold of the pin number. Within 20 minutes he had withdrawn all the moneyfrom their bank account. Moral of the lesson do not disclose the relationship between you and the people in your contact list. Avoid using names likeHome, Honey, Hubby, Sweetheart, Dad, Mom, etc.... And veryimportantly, when sensitive info is being asked throughtexts, CONFIRM by calling back. Also, when you're being text by friends or family tomeet them somewhere, be sure to call back to confirm thatthe message came from them. If you don't reach them, bevery careful about going places to meet 'family andfriends' who text you.*PLEASE PASS THIS ON* I never thought about THAT! As of now, I no longer have 'home' listed on my cell phone.

shut your car off and start is back up. if not then unplug the battery again and do the 20 brake taps to reset the ecu. the traction light will still be on until you shut the car off and start it back

Goodluck on that one dude! It's rare to see those for sale, and if there are, they cost an arm and a leg.
