I take it someone really likes their xB? No hate'n flame'n going on, I just don't get it.
OK, no flaming the xB otherwise JFO won't let us use his place to work on cars and drip oil on his driveway. The xB is JFO's, he wanted something that he could carry parts in without having to use the gas guzzeling tow vehicle. Of course in true JFO style he had to put on some aftermarket rims and we're waiting for him to install the hugh rear wing.
So yea, Thanks again everyone for everything. I SOOOOOOOO missed my S, and i would have killed myself going through this past beautiful weekend without her.
On a personal note, i would like to thank steve for stoping me from taking my car apart by myself before realizing you schmucks had put the replacement diff in already. Just for that, All your gardners will be planting weeds in with your flowers... (including your neighbor john!)Have a nice f%cking summer
You know what the problem with the xB is? Toyota made too much of them and the originality of them wore off. Seriously.....they made over 150,000 per YEAR and could have made more than 200,000! They scaled back production so they didn't flood the market-----basically stealing sales from the more expensive or more profitable cars that Toyota builds. They don't need to undercut themselves just the rest of the manufacturers. MANY if not all auto companies would like to have Toyota's problem of having to decide to sell LESS cars per year.
I get 30+ mpg and have hauled 2 front fenders, a trunk, a wing, and a hood for an S2000------all in 1 trip.
Dan---watchout, you might get flamed or at least a sit down intervention.
ahahahaha yea sorry dan but i couldn't let it continue after you got under the car like 7 times i was sore as shit for like 2 days.....my cubicle exercise of putting my feet on my desk doesn't use as many muscles as i originally thought... ...anyway the gears are doing great. got a little whir but nothing crazy and i was expecting that. i really need to get a yellow box...or three...heh...say freq?? now all i need is a loud ass exhaust to drone out my car's noises haha
That should change this weekend as I have a LCA and strut coming my way. If they don't come in on time .
More pics from Sat---they finally loaded up on my dial up.
Pretty things:
What is red, has 6 legs and can't go anywhere.........
an S2000!
What is red, has 6 legs, is a bazillion colors at night, has faded stickers, a B.A.U.W., a ripped seat, and a rats nest of wiring in the engine compartment....................................... .....
uuuummmmmmmm...............

freq will porter cable up the entire car
Tim will attack the brakes
we will swap out the wing for something more subtle
tear out the LEDs
leather repair or swap in a new seat insert
shampoo the carpets.
