damn...that sux...

reminds me of a story when I jammed one of those huge knifes in my leg...

heres the story... I was sitting there ( I was like 7!?!) with a coconut on my lap trying to open it. I love coconut milk...

stabbing at it with the knife, since I've seen sdults do it like that... so I'm stabbing at it with it in my lap... I guess I must have gotten somewhere cuz my lap had a little milk on it and next thing youknow the coconut slipped off my lap and here I am about to stab it with the knife...

and there ya go.. I have a huge *** knife sticking out of my upper thigh... was wonderful. I didn't cry because I knew I would be in sooo much trouble if my mom found out I was playing with a knife... but after 6 stiches later.. I was fine.. I just couldn't walk for like a week.. I didn't hit anything major and I was like a milileter away form my bone...

When I 1st started reading this I thought "how the heck did he rack up 1400?" I relocated the bettery in my celica to the trunk and it cost me next to nothing. After a bit more reading I am have to say I FEEL 4 YOU. I am sorry to hear about it and hope you recover quickly with a handsome scar to remember your experience by...

What sucks is that now I'll look like some suicidal idiot with a nice big scar in my wrist. Maybe I'll get a tatoo that says "No, I'm not suicidal, my life kicks ***" or somehting.

With a fwd car, shouldnt you just keep the battery in the front?

I don't know what FWD car you're talking about? If anything, in a FWD car it would make even MORE sense to move it to the back to try to help even out the horrible weight distribution. My S13 was RWD last time I checked......

Oh.. I thought my 240s were front wheel drive. I figured the rear driveshaft and rear dif were just for looks.

But folks were also talking about swapping the battery in a celica. About the fwd horrible weight distribution, when i think about doing anything to a car, I think about drag, not handling. My bad..
