  1. Top Gear, where do you get your fix?

    I get them from my super secret sources :P. Although I don't usually get Top Gear, because half the time I can't stand their incessant American bashing (especially bad in their buy a cheap car episode).
  2. Spiderman 3

    If I remember correctly, Raimi is up for 2 more Spiderman movies.Interesting comments though... so by your opinion, a "manly movie" cannot have people crying in it? I guess a movie like "Live Free Die Hard" is something more to your liking in that case :P.
  3. Spiderman 3

    I thought it was alright, but it's still kind of sissy how they changed around Peter's love interests back in Spiderman 1 where Gwen Stacy should've died on the bridge.
  4. Dont you just hate ignorant people.

    You know, I never think to lock my garage, but reading things like this makes me want to. As much as I don't care for the Bose system installed in my car, some two-bit punk wouldn't mind stealing it for the overpriced street price that Bose has.Hope they're caught.
  5. FINALLY, I get to show off.

    Sounds a lot like mine, except if I'm sick, I get paid 100% and long-term is around 60%. I'd have to go into my benefits thing to see the exact numbers. My death benefits and such are all based on my salary (a multiplier is applied). The fact that I pay as much in a year as you do in a month...
  6. HP PC Recovery Tool is CRAP!!!! (Help please)

    Restoring back-ups only becomes difficult if the area has been rewritten to. You can't forget that when a file is deleted, the data still exists. The area is only considered "empty" by the file system since the file isn't desired (hopefully :P) anymore.PC File Recovery doesn't take hours...
  7. HP PC Recovery Tool is CRAP!!!! (Help please)

    The thing any nerd would tell you is this is a case of not adhering to the rule "RTFM." To my knowledge, HP Restore software simply copies over an "image" from the restore partition and removes anything in those locations. You always back up before doing something like this.Something you...
  8. FINALLY, I get to show off.

    You pay $300 a month in benefits, I pay $28 for great coverage. You may want to rethink your benefits being better ;).
  9. XBOX Gamertags

    AikoukaI play just about anything and everything. Although I abhor the FPS games for the XBOX 360, I still find myself buying them.
  10. Toyota Prius Worse than Hummer

    That number was based on the average miles driven per year for the Prius. The number given per year was 7 and he based it on driving for 15 years, which is about 100,000 miles.Now, it's almost guaranteed that this would turn into a global warming discussion (as it did). As it goes now...
  11. BOV - atmosphere or return and why?

    Unless you have an aftermarket MAFT or a unit to trick the ECU, you will be running too rich, because the air that the BOV is releasing has already been accounted for.
  12. 1g to 2g

    If you buy parts for your 420A engine, they will most likely NOT fit on a GS-T engine (4G63). Also, why waste the money on a turbo kit, and then put a totally different engine in there. Also, you may be able to sell the NA and get a turbo car and spend less money.
  13. College Fcuking Rocks!!11

    Delta Sigma Mu probably already exists.
  14. Computer Tech School

    Frankly, what helps is a display of your ability and name recognition. The whole recognition thing makes me wish I would have actually sent back that Polytechnic application or sent in that application for RIT. But, oh well.Go where you can get the better education, you don't want to end...
  15. Gmail = Evil?

    There's already a gmail file system for unix-based operating systems, and gmail has a 10mb-per-attachment limit (when you attach things, I'm not sure about incoming.)
  16. dsms suck

    Sounds like someone didn't take care of their car too well, and decides to blame it on the car. Hell, your car is an NT, and NT owners typically have less problems than the turbo owners!
  17. NFS:U PC Forums?

    I went to play the game again, and my profile was gone. I had the game beat too :(.
  18. a rant

    I agree, if it's the 92 in your profile, then I think you're charging too much. I would never pay that much for a 13 year old car, unless it was turbo/awd and meant for power. I saw some fool selling a 93 Laser for $3000 online! My car wouldn't even sell for $3000 if it worked right!
  19. Xbox modders please help

    XBMC = XBOX Media Center, whcih allows you to play videos and a bunch of stuff.Emulators = allow you to run other things such as Super Nintendo games, Sega Genesis, etc.You can also download or rip games (go to your rental store, pay $5 for a rental and rip it. ... note that you MUST rip...
  20. Can't Get My Wheels Off-HELP [Studs spinning in hub, lugs stuck]

    I have one that's like that, and all I do is push it down and it locks into place.
  21. College Fcuking Rocks!!11

    College is awesome, especially after sitting at home on dial-up, I was practically waiting for the speed :D.I saw the first DSM down here today, I doubt it's a student though. Some black 2g GST on Washington Blvd down here in Williamsport.
  22. Xbox modders please help

    I agree 100%, that's the best site to visit for xbox modification help. I had a problem with the clock 16 error after modding my xbox, and a member helped me fix it after my attempts failed (which I still don't know why they did ...)Currently, I run a software hack with the UDE fonts and...
  23. Post your Desktop [Merged 9-8]

    Here's mine a little bit shrunk:
  24. Axle stuck in hub! Help

    Use a 3-jaw puller on it. If that doesn't work, it might be too rust welded in to get it out, so just replace the hub. I had a hub with an axle stuck in it that was simply impossible to get out. So I just replaced it, and all was well.
  25. Clutch slipping, but there's no obvious cause

    Okay, well, I've practically narrowed the problem down to the transfer case or the center differential. Now, I didn't take the transfer case apart, since I'm definitely not a trained mechanic, but I did try rotating it, and it didn't seem to have a problem rotating it. My method of rotating it...
  26. More 2005 Eclipse Info

    It looks like the new eclipse is sprouting wings from above the rear wheel well :D. It's a bird ... it's a plane ... no it's an Eclipse!?
  27. Turbo DSM Tommorow

    You know, once I got used to the characteristics of a manual transmission, I prefer them over automatics. Not having to use the brake on a hill is a nice plus. Being able to slow down by simply letting of the gas (note, that this directly relates to the first thing I mentioned), and riding the...
  28. Car Overheated / Overheating / Overheats [MERGED]

    Do you mean the one coolant line for the water-to-oil cooler? I had a bad leak at there one time, definitely uncool. I also had a bad leak at the rubber hose for the coolant send line ... also uncool.Sounds like it might have been your thermostat. To find out if it was your thermostat...
  29. X-Fer Case leaking more than it should?

    Yes, definitely replace it. I didn't replace mine, and I had to pull the transmission off to fix a slipping clutch, because the transfer case lost too much fluid, and began to cause too much friction on the clutch. Hearing that t-case making a low grinding noise and a couple bangs is not fun.
  30. Rotors scarred to hell...tons of noise....WTF!?

    You're supposed to use anti-squeal stuff, but screw that, it's a waste. The shims should have tabs on them, so just bend those a little bit down so they're at an angle. The one with 3 tabs will usually not fall off, but the other one likes to fall off. So first, push your caliper piston back...
  31. 6 Bolt Bottom Conversion

    I don't mean to sound like an arse, but why not just buy a 1g turbo head? I'm not sure if it will end up being cheaper than modifying your current head. Also, the 1g head flows better than the 2g head. If you really need a head, I do have a spare 1g turbo manual head, but I'm not sure if I...
  32. Thinking about buying a 92 Mitsu Eclipse GS.. help please :)

    This site details the parts of a turbo DSM engine. The only differences will be the intake piping, the turbo (obviously :p) and a few other minor things such as vacuum lines.http://members.shaw.ca/dsm.1000q/Engineprimer/text-index.htmI haven't heard anything bad about the automatic, but...
  33. Question on engine type

    Turbo 4G63s have a 7.8:1 compression ration.
  34. IS it worth it dropping A/C?!

    There's the: Condensor: The big radiator-like thing in the front of the car. Compressor: Behind the motor close to the firewall, and is driven by the AC belt. Evaporator: Under the dash
  35. Thinking about buying a 92 Mitsu Eclipse GS.. help please :)

    Drive the car, and see how it feels. Also check the timing belt to see if it needs to be replaced, because if you don't do it yourself, that can be a somewhat costly job. Just bring a 23mm socket, extension and socket to turn the crankshaft pulley, and a 10mm socket to take the top timing belt...
  36. Back to school tomorrow...

    I go back to college tommorow. I need the extra bandwidth to support my ... "downloading habits." But unfortunately, the DSM, against original plans, will not be going with me.
  37. Kooky DSM pics...

    I got bored and colored my car black once. Well, it turned out more like gunmetal, because black is hard to simulate decently.
  38. Gran turismo 4

    There may be a combo deal, but I don't know about a steering wheel coming with it. I just asked a friend who works at Gamestop, and he said that there's none that he heard of, and the game's release date hasn't been announced (only the fact that it's coming out in November has.)Also, have...
  39. Your Cars Longest Down Time?

    Jebus, I thought I was bad. But I agree, right now I'm just too lazy to work on my car. But I think it's a mix of the fact that I just spent a lot of money to fix it, now it breaks down again and I'm just plain frustrated with working on it. But oh well, I'll get over it :p.
  40. Your Cars Longest Down Time?

    A little over 12 months for a blown (piston through block) engine. After about $2300, she's back in the garage with a drivetrain problem, but no matter how much my baby complains, I still love it :talon:.
  41. stupid free ipods and tv things...

    Dude, why didn't you just sign up for eBay and make an outrageously low bid on some fast or "hot" car that has 8 days left? You don't have to WIN if you select the eBay thing. I've heard of people getting the iPods.
  42. It's been 2 months and I will finally get to hear my engine run tonight

    Well, do you know how well the oil pump is working in the current block? Also, how fast were you going? I had a problem with my oil filter stud and it came loose, and I lost a LOT of oil pressure. I still kept above L, but I definitely was more than worried about it.That car looks pretty...
  43. It's been 2 months and I will finally get to hear my engine run tonight

    I feel your pain :(. What went wrong? The other set of bearings? I hope you didn't do the job too quickly, and then something messed up.
  44. It's been 2 months and I will finally get to hear my engine run tonight

    Heh, I waited TWELVE months to get my car running for the first time to only have it break down again after 400 miles ( clutch slipping ... and everything with the clutch disc looks new :p). I just want to drive my baby :(.But hey, congratulations on getting it running, and you sound really...
  45. Questions on GSX

    Luxury ... t25 ... does not compute :p.There's nothing wrong with replacing your piping and it's an easy, albeit not that cheap (usually $100 for each intake pipe section) way to gain lost horsepower. Exhaust change can also help, but make sure to change the whole exhaust and not just the...
  46. another newbie here!

    Jeez, that thing is so low that it'd be destroyed after I drove it less than a mile! :D Go PA roads. Welcome.
  47. 6 Bolt Bottom Conversion

    Not that easy? Try not possible. The 6-bolt and 7-bolt cranks have different lengths and journal sizes. Just swap the whole block. I just took a picture that physically compares both crankshafts, and I circled where the differences are.
  48. Is a 90 Laser Different?

    First of all, is it an RS or an RS Turbo?The 90 has a few minor differences in the ECU, and features an electronic-controlled cruise control. I can't think of any other difference.
  49. Prolly the Funniest Instant Message I have ever had

    I've seen plenty of good looking women in Williamsport, but that's at college :D
  50. Which way does the oil catch can go???

    Ugh, I feel like an idiot. I thought the PCV and the breather hose flowed the opposite way, so I had it backwards. No wonder the catch can never really caught anything, and I still got oil in my intake :p.
