    Kyle is sitting on the throne about them. I'm waiting on him before selling. I figure Scott is ready for the other set of bolts.

    There is nothing intimidating about it or the time, it's about the fact that the cost is ridiculous and people brag about German cars being reliable and luxurious. That isn't true and before I grabbed my 06 GP I looked at and test drove Audis and was not impressed at all. I've been in mazdas that have a ton more to offer.

    If someone wants to buy this or that car, go for it. It's your money and your choice but real friends will always give you a heads up on certain things to help you out.

    You're right I am. I knew Russosaur would be interested and if you want to sell them, go for it. I'd like to have the power upgrade but do I really have motivation to touch my car? Hell no. Why? It runs great as is lol.... But a power upgrade and possibly gains in mpg are nice too and that's another reason why I can't make up my mind ATM.

    Somebody, coax me to put the ER rockers in lol

    Oh look, one of the first things I see on my facebook homepage


    Look how nice and tight they pack everything in there




    I will say my least favorites are cam swaps in c5/c6 vettes and removing the heads from a lsx based fbody or 4.5 gen fbodies. my wrists still have scars from all the cuts from loosening and tightening the head bolts. I prefer to do ARP head studs outside the car and just pull the motor any time they need to be checked.

    Took the cruze into the dealer. They diagnosed it with a bad ECM which is funny because they supposedly just flashed it because of a recall.

    Friday, we put the long awaited vent visors on them. Got the nice in-channel ones. So far so good.
    Sunday it got a nice bath.

    Now it needs a tank of go go juice.
