It's yellow. Red and orange are also terrible. Black, blue, purple, and teal are much nicer colours.

Calm down.... Don't forget you are talking to the person who hates any red car except for one or two select Ferrari's, and thinks riding on any 17" wheels is the equivalent of lifting an Impala / similar on 22" chromies

I no longer wish to talk to you
I love yellow lol


You make a good point.....

Riding on 17's works on some cars, like the Supra.

The only thing yellow has going for it is Pikachu. Now I'd take a Porsche 911 in yellow.

^ Yes you're right. Then again if I want bigger spacers then I rather buy new wheels with better fitment.

So tonight a red mr2 pulled through our drive thru. Talked to the guy and he was from Florida and trying to make it a Cali car. He told me how he's bought so many parts to make it legal in Cali like EGRs and cats. Then I asked about what engine he has and he said it was swapped with a usdm 3sgte. I told him so you're getting it BAR'd also? He looked at me clueless......*facepalm* I told him he'll need to google it because there's no point of installing all the Cali emission components when it won't be BARable. Then he got his food and drove off.

Trying to get everything worked out on my busy month.
Road trips! have to meet richee3 to pick up those awesome Batman rims. (already have a cigar and having the chainsaw tuned up. so all that is left is to shave the chest hair.)

Next trip is to meet up with dkdmonk to pick up all the st205 goodies. With all this stuff and the projectors and parts I bought from calijeff the car should look a lot different by Christmas.

Last trip will be to relax a little up in Mane. Going on a low tech vacation. Windjammer cruse.

swapped the non-working original antenna with the Honda S2000 antenna.

Look at my journal page for more information and pictures.

*edit* went to go see "The Conjuring" today at 1:15. On the way to the Walgreen's (Where we get our candy for the movie for $1.00)... I noticed that I hit 175,001 miles.

I went to OReileys to claim my warranty on my dizzy today they told me their was no possible way I could have bought it there because it still had the Denso and Toyota markings on it. I told them the exact date and price I paid and the fact that it was under my name on my card and they refused to look it up. All they kept saying was "We don't sell those parts here" I about flipped, especially cause one of the guys I talked to was there the day I bought it. And of course I lost my receipt which really doesn't matter cause they store warranties in the computer. So I'm gonna go back tomorrow and talk to a manager about it cause I'm not paying another $105 for something I have a lifetime warranty on that their too lazy to look up.

Lifetime warranty could also be handled by the Manufacturer...

I am going off my experience with Computer Parts here, but every time I've lost the receipt and something needs to be replaced I contact the manufacturer directly for warranty....
Just a though Hope you get your claim processed

Haha well I thought about that...but ummm...idr who remaned it...Cause well like I said it still has all the Toyota and Denso markings on it which Cardone removes. I think it was Import Direct or something like that, but they don't sell dizzys for 6GCs there anymore (if they ever did) and I have zero information on them.

Also computer parts...how I love RMAs...

Decided to join the 1MZ crew. 112k miles, with harness for $200. BAWSS. I pick it up tomorrow.

Nice score.

^ I'll say, drunkie. That's the best deal on a presumably intact engine I've read about.

Yeah, now comes the fun part of harness work. Hopefully my boy comes through for me (he does a lot of the wiretucks/standalone stuff around here) so I don't have to send my harness out.

My pick and pull junkyard had just taken the car in, and they owed me a favor after they took my $200 and never pulled the 3SGE.with 61k they should have, and accidentally scrapped it. If I pulled it, it would have been $150, so for $50 I'll let them pull it.

Today I found out that the right side tail light holder is screwed, and I have to go find a new one in the junk yards this weekend. I also replaced the fuel ignition relay in the Honda CRX I am trying to sell to see if it would start. I also put a freshly charged battery in and when I went to turn the key... nothing. Now the lights wont even come on. I have to check the main fuse to make sure I didnt blow that. UGH!

You did. The main relay has a habit of doing that. It's not prohibitively expensive.

Whatever you say Swiss cakes.

Could be something from BWD or Intermotor. SMP (Mother company to BWD and Intermotor) makes all the OEM Toyota and VW electronic ignition parts. (Well, most of them anyway)

I've seen things come out of their boxes with those stamps on it. Any intelligent parts guy will actually look up a warranty.

Today I realized I now have 4 blue squares under my belt here at 6gc.. And my post that gave the fourth one was me stating my celica rolled 110k

Just finished changing my oil.

Still waiting on my sealed solder splice connectors to finish working on my HID wiring.

Getting my tires rotated a bit later on today.
