well the 360 is plugged in. Highly impressed with the picture(not sure but I think its better than the ps3), its very clean and sharp, even on our old tube tv. Yet to plug it into the 42".

Now to get some games

my driving record looked like s***, UNTIL I bought a 240sx.

Good topic

I just turned 35 last month. I have received 2 tickets within the last year. But we're a military family, so we move around alot. I wasn't aware of the Wichita Falls Motorcycle Nazi's. They hide in the bushes, in the median, about 25-75 yards beyond the "reduced speed limit" signs. Before that I hadn't received a citation since I was 18 back in 1993. This comes with a decent story.

I got stationed at Hurlburt Fld in Fort Walton Beach, FL. One of the best bases and places to live in the country IMHO. White beaches, great weather and the water is piss warm. Oh yeah...hot chicks for miles and my job entailed lots of low level flying on helicopters up and down the coast.



Life was good for me So I went out and bought my first "new to me" car from a dealer.



That dude assisted in me getting 3 tickets within the first 4 months of ownership. The last one was coming back from a UFC fight, had been drinking, underage and speeding. As I'm driving over the 3 mile bridge from Pcola to...well the other side don't remember the name...this car comes speeding up beside me. So we proceed to race the last 1/2 of the bridge. I won...but I beat an unmarked cruiser. Doom on WD.

He pulls us over, questions us. Did I tell you I was driving with a car load of fellow 1 stripers? Yeah...all under age...all drinking, beer IN the car etc. Typical stupid airman move. But we're in Spec Ops...don't go down without at least TRYING to talk your way out Turns out the cop has a brother that's a SEAL. He knows how much BS his brother gets away with...way worse then what we were doing. So he let us pour out all the beer, lock a bottle of John Daniels in my trunk compartment, and drive home with the max ticket I could receive without going to jail. Was like $285...which to me might as well have been a million.

So I didn't pay it. Got a suspension. Drove anyway Paid it when I could and lived happily ever after.

No I don't condone drinking and diving.

had a few tickets first time 240, red car with a loud fart can tints lowered, doing 100 in 45 express lanes, lame one eyed cop car paced me from local lanes, $100 and 3 months supervision(first time), next was an oklahoma trooper, doing 105 in 55, $200 . last was doin 80 on 55, trooper came up i tried slowing down in front of truck.. ...he slowed the truck down and pulled up behind me.. all of these were moer than 4 years ago. i have been clean as whistle since then. havent got one in the turbo'd 240 and dont plan to. speed only after seeing a cop pull someone else over...

why is it that when i had a black smoke spewing 240 everyone wanted to race, now with no smoke and turbo, no one even bothers.

lol I drove around jax for months open header on a kat, tag in my pass seat, and they seemed to ignore me. Not mad but, in my previous vehicle(96 SS s10) I could not leave my neighborhood without being profiled and pulled over, my wife was even pulled a few times, the fag fhp would see it was her and drive back to his spot.

My buddy had a formula back in the day, got raped on price but he was in love and it was one of 3~4 in the jax area for sale at the time. Thing was sick, but auto

GNC has this stuff called Blk Powder. I suggest drinking some of that if you think Mt Dew gets you some go go!!!

Caffeine is the worst energy sup...awful. Many many better OTC pharms available these days.

this thread is nice to have, should be stickied, am still wondering what happened to that thread about the pcv system and using a vacuum pump, or a exhaust mounted device to cancel out PCV... and am trying t keep up with the diy water injection, wondering if it would be worth it in an n/a, as an fuel economy, occtane booster device.

also, my driving record is a little off, i've gotten away with a bunch of warnings, and still do, lucky me, and also 2 traffic device violations, just because i cooperate with the jerks(cops) around this area, this city is so boring and slow that they don't have anything better to do than worry about traffic.

and to add up my name is oliver and im 19 and live in cape coma(coral) florida... and no i dont want dates with any of u, lol, just like to be polite.

THIS THREAD NEEDS TO BE STICKIED!!!!

I take "Nano xplode" I get from GNC. You slam a glass after adding it to water. It''s a pre workout supplement and damm it gets your blood pumping. I feel like im the hulk for an hour. Good for cardio and strength.

I used to eat alot of Ephedra when I was active duty military. To be honest I haven't found anything that can be obtained legally that rivals it. Granted I haven't tried most of the newer stuff, to much $$$.

The Black Powder was givin to me by a friend to try, worked pretty damn good. My problem with working out...any working out...is lack of motivation. If I wack an energy sup down they usually give me just enough oomph to get off my lazy a$$.

These days I just do a basic "jail cell workout". Various situps, push ups, chin-ups etc and I play some hockey on the side. I've been trying to get back into hitting the jump rope, but it's F'N cold here now...lol. I'm 6'2" so I aint swinging a rope inside the house

I'm not gonna sticky this because no one reads the stickies...lol. This is popular enough to remain on the first page anyway.

I dont drink it for the "kick" I think I am addicted to the aluminum cans I get massive headaches if I dont drink dew from a CAN! I think it is something to do with the acid in it eating the aluminum and my body craves it ...mmmuh muhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaahaaaaaa

My buddy drinks energy beer, why would you want to be all crunk whiles you're drunk

And no way I am dropping 5 bux on a tiny little shot of energy thats gas for another 20 minutes of sliding

and sure you can run 50~150 psi on a ca t25(dont let people tell you its the smallest t25 around its f***in huge) you just run a ton of methanol to do it

I don't drift. I'll screw around and boil a set of tires off...but I don't drift. My idea of the perfect rear tire is 15/275-60

Mixing alcohol and ANY other diuretic is stupid. Not only do you severely dehydrate yourself, but when drinking the body needs that water more then when you're jogging on the treadmill. The process by which alcohol is burned off and converted inside the body is pretty intense. People don't realize how nasty it is. For instance, you don't ever want to take Tylenol or acetaminophen when you're drinking. The two can cause serious liver damage. Hell they both beat up the liver by themselves, you don't wanna mix the two.

The s13 driveshaft will not work in the s14, neither will the s14 in the s13. It does matter if you have abs or not so make sure to get the correct driveshaft. I haven't had a chance to try the auto yet.

If you remove the S13 dust shield I believe the S13 DS will work in the S14. I've never tried though.

k thanks guys your the best.

Well i see an argument coming between me and my old lady. I was showing her an rb25, i was thinking bout buying. Sorry guys i still love the kat. Just for a project/backup motor. And shes like stop looking at it. (She knows whenever i look at something and say i want it 7 out of 10 imma find a way to get it. Thats how i got my s14 and turbo kit.) I cant get her to see that its not stupid to have a backup motor, so what is bigger and its from japan.

Am i the only one that feels that way, someone agree with me. Might be sleeping on the couch tonight.

why?

sounds like jacksonville, they had a s***ty little 1/8th strip out in bfe, first baptist wanted it shut down, so they were forced to sell it to some 'construction company' with intentions to build homes. From what I hear its just sitting there to this day. a local guy tried his heart out for years to get a single local drift clinic type thing going, it failed time and time again. Some places just hate.
