Wow! the bord is really slow. Lets get the bord talkin again. Whats going on with u guys? Anything new? What are your plans for the winter? Got any mods planned for your cars??

Ok I will start....

Well I got my rear end fixed "YAAAA!!" So lets say my car sucked alot of cash out of my pocket last week. The rear end was $400 to get fixed then as I was driving the car back to the eastside I went to go and pass a car on 75 and my car made a weird nose and then the engine light came on. And I got off on Van Dyke and she was ideling really badly and jurked on slow take off's. So the next day Brian and his dad replace my spark plugs and wires "$70". Then after that she was still not acting right still had the same problems. So I talk to Jason from Katech and have him take a look at her. And he runs some test on her and finds out that silender 5 is sparking alot higher then the outhers. So Brian makes a call to a sponser on mifbody and takes the car to waterford and come to find out that my Coil pack went back on my car and my car only has 52,000 miles on her. All this happend in one week. So now I have a job my car has to take all my money now, lol. Oh I also got a job I am workin in Troy for a in home health care company doing fileing and stuff. I also am a Eastsider now I moved in with Brian and his parents.

So that is what is going on with me and my car. So lets here whats going on with you or your car.

Good to hear ya got a job Ang!

The plans I have this winter are saving up money, I might buy a stang eventually down the road, but as of now just saving up. Although, I do need to get tires this winter, almost forgot about that. My tires right now are pritty bad, pritty easy to do some fish tails in the rain.

I've heard the coil packs from GM do go bad on the LS1s, I'm not surprised they go bad on the 6ers.

yeah well with my car and I have been doing ok too! Yeah one of my coils went out last month and I had to get that all replaced. Changed my plugs and wires too while getting that done. I added a white backing to the gauges so now I have some sweet white gauges. I also changed out the lighting behind them to blue LEDs so my dash looks pretty tight now, haha. Did all that stuff last month or the month before. Just put on a Magnaflow catback yesterday and it is really sweet and I can't wait to drive it around. I already have the Whisper Airlid in the front and was thinking about putting in a SLP Ram Air thing up front sometime this winter. I am also planning on tinting my back window soon too. Other than that, not too many plans for the winter. Pretty much still psyched that I am going to be flying army helicopters for the next 10 years or so! Finally coming home next Wednesday for Thanksgiving for the first time since June, any events or anything going on?

my mustang has been fine for a while, and im patiently waiting for something major to happen. twice it wouldnt start, but i knew i need a new battery.

i got a job as well. i work at a place called firestone. i mainly sweep the floors, but if they need me to, i basically do all the tire stuff(balance, mount, etc.) tomorrow will be my 4th day. i even get a uniform with my name on it! its my first legit job, so im dreadign the check, even though i get paid 8 dollars an hour, and i get it all back.

my bicycle broke and i hit my knee on the handlebars really hard and it hurt to walk on it for a while.

im still waiting on medical papers so that i can joni the USMC DEP program, after a month and two personal visits to the hospital.

i got promoted to C/Lt. Col. in AFJROTC. not a big deal, but its something. thats about it from over here.

and shadowpanther3800, be careful in those choppers. if memory serves me right, alot of casualties from iraq were from chopper crashes.

Nothing new with me. I'm still with my girl. I am still waiting to see what Ford is going to do. Thats about it. Glad to see you and Brian back.

Already spent another $1000 putting fresh Nittos all the way around the Marauder. Got the stock wheels with "Moon" hubcaps on the PT. Had to get it ready for winter.
