Munnerlyn 11-29-2010 07:20 AM

lol.... The benefits of being in a long-distance relationship! :D I didn't stay up all night, but I wanted to! I bought a Miata and beat the Sunday cup!

icemans2k02 11-29-2010 07:28 AM

lmao. miata ftw! btw did it have the 'inside view"

Black ops has me by the balls as well. :D

SLracer 11-29-2010 12:35 PM

Yea black ops had me til GT5. Black ops is ****ed now... On that note, I had typically played Battlefield Bad Company 2 on Steam as my go to multiplayer. Decided to give Call of Duty a try with Black Ops and I have to say I still prefer Battlefield. I feel like the battlefield game pace is just more realistic/playable. I don't know if realistic is the word I am looking for but yea... Other opinions? Which do you prefer better for multiplayer?

Yes sir! The miata did have an inside view and it definitely wasn't one of the premium cars! :D

icemans2k02 11-30-2010 05:51 AM

Nice I started playing it. Ill post in the GT 5 thread :)

Munnerlyn 11-30-2010 12:22 PM

Hey, I was wrong about the Miata having an interior view... :(

lmao why did you buy the Miata. I started with the Civic type R :) it DOES have inside view!

icemans2k02 11-30-2010 12:33 PM

cool video! love watching stuff like this makes you proud of what you buy when you buy it!

Munnerlyn 11-30-2010 02:04 PM

Exactly! I bought the Miata because I wanted a cheap RWD platform! :D

Check out this Defi setup...

Defi gauges are soo hott! I am jealous!

Munnerlyn 12-01-2010 05:56 AM

Sweet! Are you going to be a steering wheel?

icemans2k02 12-01-2010 06:13 AM

I might get one.. but being a steering wheel doesnt sound fun whatsoever.. just saying :)

Munnerlyn 12-01-2010 06:57 AM

lmao... :rofl:

SLracer 12-01-2010 10:26 AM

I loled

mr flannery77 12-01-2010 02:42 PM

Nice video Munny! On another note, will the Gran Turismo Steering wheel that worked on the PS2 work with the PS3 as well? If so, I'm set if I decide to buy GT5.

icemans2k02 12-01-2010 05:21 PM

I assume so because people said that the steering wheel for gt4 works great with gt5

Munnerlyn 12-01-2010 06:05 PM

Sweet! You'll love it Mason! :thumbup:

mr flannery77 12-04-2010 03:16 PM

I feel like I just watched some kind of sadistic porno!! :)

icemans2k02 12-05-2010 11:37 AM

Lmao looks like a butt tulip

ohionab 12-05-2010 12:00 PM

yeah that looked fake... especially when the thing decided to blow up.... and yeah i agree it looks like some kinda weird freaky Japanese $$$$$$ or something lol.

But, the main lessons learned here is when in doubt, poke it with a stick, and if you turn it over and it has some sort of dirty lookin hole then continue poking it with a stick, and if it starts spitting stuff at you then it is time to go... and during this whole thing you must make semi erotic moans and giggles.

ohionab 12-05-2010 12:03 PM

wow.... so i cant say $$$$$$??? what about porno? lol, why is $$$$$$ considered a bad word that needs to be censored?

lol this is sorta funny... i didnt know they had auto censorship.... what about ass , donkey punch slut whore?

ohionab 12-05-2010 12:04 PM

WHAT!?!?! so the only thing i cant say is porno minus the 'o' hahahahahahahahaha this is hilarious

rugsr 12-05-2010 01:48 PM

WHAT IS WITH PEOPLE WHO WRAP THEIR GIFTS/PACKAGES AT THE REGISTER!!!!!!
Im at Fedex in line and there is a woman at the register shipping bags of gifts etc to different places in the US...the worst part was she had to separate the gifts there and some still needed touch ups (ribbons etc)
I on the other hand walked in there with my package wraped with all labels ready. 30mins.......30mins i waited, not only for the woman but the slooooooooow workers behind the desk.

UGH im done

ouch I hate that. Thats like the post office those people are ridiculous that go in there. I print all my slips online so I drop and go. Most of the time you have someone there with an envelope, letter, stamps, etc but there ALL separate. You know they have mailed stuff before but its like there first time so therefore it takes 30 minutes for them to make sure its all right before they get done.

ohionab 12-06-2010 07:11 AM

Well, I dont see a problem with going in there to fill out slips and wrap and packaging etc etc.... but have the freakin common sense to get the hell outa the way, and let other people go to the main counter. Dont block other people that just want to drop something off..... Sooo, i guess the ironic part is that she was thinking of no one but herself as she was sending christmas gifts out haha.

ohionab 12-06-2010 07:22 AM

So, I had someone offer to buy my Escape from me. He wanted to know how much i would want. I told him it would be whatever KBB says its worth. Still gotta tell him how much... i am sorta thinking he will say 'oh never mind' when he sees how much a 2003 Escape is worth lol ($6200).

Buttttt, if by some chance he says ok to $6200 then I probably would sell it... even though all I would do is turn around and buy something else. I want something with 4WD or AWD that has some good cargo space for both stuff and people. I got the S2k that I can get good mpg in when i want to. I was thinking a Isuzu Trooper or Rodeo/Passport. I am sorta partial to Isuzu's as beater vehicles (my first vehicle was a 1988 Trooper II). Also wouldnt mind an Xterra if i could find one in that price range. Also, A Toyota Landcruiser is in my opinion the greatest vehicle to have as a beater, though I doubt i will find one in that price range.

Anyways, anyone have any other suggestions for good beater SUVs or Trucks that are around $5k that can carry at least 4 people, have 4WD, and under 140k miles?

Also, since i am on here I will mention if someone wants to offer me KBB price then I would be willing to sell the Escape (2003, FWD, 93k miles). Nothing is wrong with it, it actually is just a little too nice for a beater vehicle in my opinion, and when i move back north this beater is gonna be my winter car, so i would prefer 4WD instead of FWD. So it just comes down to if I had the option of getting what its worth then I would trade to something else lol.

Munnerlyn 12-06-2010 09:41 AM

Dam... Looks like I missed out on a great conversation about fungus! :p

icemans2k02 12-06-2010 11:45 AM

Yes you did!

So guess what?! I had to drop a package off at the post office. I of course had my stuff ready to go and there is a lady there wanting to ship a package and had NOTHING filed out. Of course her stuff in her box needs to be taped and she is clueless as to what to do. Very frustrating when I just have a drop and go...

rugsr 12-06-2010 02:18 PM

Lol Wth is with that video?!

icemans2k02 12-07-2010 05:32 AM

suppose to be a fungus..

SLracer 12-08-2010 07:02 AM

Hmmmm so I saw a T1R 70R-EM Sparrow Dual Exhaust and K&N FIPK for sale in Columbus, MS which is where I just so happen to be going this weekend to pick up my other car which I had left there for the past 7 months or so. Its an impulse buy but I can pick up both for $800 should I do it?

icemans2k02 12-08-2010 07:06 AM

YES!! It is a single right? Best power gains for the S are single exhaust and the K&N is a pretty decor and functional intake under the hood

SLracer 12-08-2010 07:58 AM

Its a dual, I would rather the dual look myself and would like it as quiet as possible. Seems like it makes really good power, I have seen multiple dyno charts of it making 14hp on a stock S but it seems to be a nice sounding exhaust not too much louder but much deeper.

icemans2k02 12-08-2010 08:45 AM

Yea Duals will def be quieter. Do you have links for dyno charts?

SLracer 12-08-2010 11:05 AM

Evasive Motorsports Listing


Evasive Motorsports Dyno

I thought there were two graphs but they were actually that same one. I'm even thinkin maybe just getting them both and trying the exhaust on and seeing if I can sell it locally for what I pay for it, seems like theres a bunch of us around here

icemans2k02 12-08-2010 11:33 AM

yea I would do a little bit of looking around. People haven't gained that much with duals normally that have done it in real world environments. Searching the forums it looked like most people gained 13whp with intake TP, and this exhaust. Singles will always produce more power BUT duals will yield better sound. Also without a center cap or right rear bumper it looks akward as well. I do love the T1R brand as I rocked one of there singles for a while and it sounded great! I think with either one you will be satisfied.

SLracer 12-08-2010 11:54 AM

Yea, im not really dying to get one or anything, I like the car how it is but was interested seeing what a little deeper sound would be like. It was gonna be more of an impulse buy since I was gonna be in the area this weekend and it seemed like a good price. It sounds like hes pending a bunch of offers so we will see what happens. Otherwise I don't think I am particularly looking for anything, just trolling the for sale board haha

SLracer 12-08-2010 11:59 AM

Nevermind....I just bought it haha :surrendr:

icemans2k02 12-08-2010 12:04 PM

LMAO awesome. Like I said either way I think you will enjoy the exhaust. Little performance boost but alot better sound. You will be WOT alllll the time

Munnerlyn 12-08-2010 12:31 PM

lol... Nice! I've got a lot of love for my T1R 70RT... Titanium resonance at its best! It's a 2 piece slip fit design... The only 2 exhausts I'd consider other than my current are J's 70RR (Bobby's Exhaust) and an Amuse R1000!

The Sparrow is a great exhaust, and T1R makes a quality product.
Papa Keith (Globallyoff) has the 65 mm Sparrow on his MY05

I have the K&N FIPK too, and love it!

Blucky87 12-09-2010 01:44 AM

what base in iraq you at? im at balad right now, been here since june and leaving in january.

sent my shortblock to laskey on the 6th and ordered a ptuning turbo kit in october with dual exhaust w/ recirc WG piping and even got them to put in 4 EGT sensors on the runners of the manifold. so i'll be sure to have lots of fun when we reunite!

I contacted SOS and they are ognna put a s2 s/c on my baby along with their sport clutch and hks 90 mm exhaust

Munnerlyn 12-09-2010 07:49 AM

Any reason you're wanting to go S/C? Bobby will chime in on this one since his AP1 was supercharged before going with a Greddy turbo kit...

ans2k 12-09-2010 07:58 AM

so i was changing my oil and i only put 5 quarts like usual and i drove around. when i went to check on the dip stick, one side said too much and the other side was low. i never really thought about it. but i just thought it was always odd. oh and if it sits there for a few hours the stick would read low, as in below the low line.

icemans2k02 12-09-2010 07:58 AM

Yep I would have saved my money and went turbo from the beginning. It is night and day. Dont listen to what anyone says about reliability. Its not that one is better then the other. Its the HP effect that starts breaking things. Blucky understands that which is why he is getting his block built but after that its rear end, after that tranny. Each time you fix one issue you run into another weakness. Either way if you rode in a supercharged S vs Turbo S you would be awe struck even with the same top end HP. The delivery is totally different. Good luck!
