FamilyMAN nailed it.Consensus over on the 3S forums is that it's a fake. Someone with excellent photoshop skills reworked a Ferrari 612 GTO (still a fake car).Here's a link with the original picture:Ferrari news - Ferrari 612 GTO: not real, sadly - 2010 - BBC Top Gear

Just tell the original owner he will never hear from you again if he will take 30 minutes to go to a court house with you and get a Power of Attorney covering the car.Once you have the POA you can do whatever the hell you need to with that car's title at the DMV.Been through it.

I think someone actually makes an adapter at this point for like a hundred bucks.I was working on this once upon a time. I went and pulled the ECU pigtails out of a Galant, if I remember right, because they match the Evo 8 ECU. And I took an old DSM ECU that was toast and pulled the big white...

Not bad for 1400 bucks.

Only 10-15 grand....... overnight parts from Juh-pan. Then she'll decimate all!

And remember, don't practice just to get it right, practice to never get it wrong.That's my inspirational quote you can relate to math.

This is a majority of the reason.They have to know you have a grasp of the simple to be able to proceed to the advanced.In calculus a lot of the times you will be asked for the exact value of something. If you plug it into a calculator you will get a number that is not the exact value...

The older ones like his/mine don't even put out 300HP from the factory.They still move pretty good though.

If you don't mind my asking, how much did you end up paying for it?

Looks like you found my cars lost twin.Looking forward to see what you do with this. What are your plans for it? Miles?

Oh really? That's clever.

That's nasty. I tend to avoid the feeding trough, but on the very rare occasion I'll go there.

I thought the "I was playing around" was at someone else. My bad.Anyways, the limiting factor on the car I was driving was the little sticker in the upper left corner of the windshield that was a big red circle that said 210 in the middle of it. That means the fastest you could drive the...

Read the entire post jack ass. Not many cars that I know of pull that mileage while moving down the autobahn at 125 MPH. 55 is one thing, 125 is completely different.No idea, but it does have 4.10 gears in it and will only pull around 60-65 mph. So I'm assuming it's reasonable. I have a set...

I passed on it.See, I never knew this part of it. I thought that the banks checked to ensure cashier's checks were legit and not counterfeit. I thought that was the point of them. If I had known this, then the question would never have come up in the first place.

I'm pretty sure you can buy the fittings and the tool to flare the line back out at a part store. I don't see why you couldn't replace them.

I think if I could actually get a cashier's check first and cash it then it would be ok.But I have a hard time even sending out my address in the first place.So I'm very unlikely to do it.

I'm well aware that it's an interference engine, and that it's a tough job, especially for a first-timer.But the fact of the matter is if your marks are "perfectly" lined up once you turn it over by hand a few times, then you are getting better belts than the rest of us. Typically they are...

Think so?

That is the best the cams will get.If the OP tries to move them a tooth in either direction then he will throw the marks off further than they are right now.I've done quite a few timing jobs on DSMs that I've had and have never seen the cams line up "perfectly". They are always off, a...

There's my hooptie of a hauler in all its glory and whopping 11 miles to a gallon. And only 88K miles.

So I posted this ad Isuzu Rodeo Transmission on craigslist.Tell me if the following chain of text messages sounds like a scam. It's sounding like it to me, but I figured if I could cash a legitimate cashier's check before sending the item then maybe it's not.Oops, forgot to...

Holy f*cking thread revival!

I believe the computer will adjust the timing to put it at 5*.Your crank pulley should show it at 0*, and once you start it, if you throw a timing light on it and ground out whatever pin (don't remember) that's when you will be showing 5*.

But how much further will a diesel car go on that same gallon fuel when compared to a gas burner. Much, much further. The BMW 1 series I drove when I was in Germany was burning diesel and it would pull around 30mpg when it was running 210KM/H (125 MPH). I also would drive it over a month on one...

I have a beat to shit 87 Ford F-250 IDI. It was my grandpas, given to my dad, then given to me.It will only do 60-65, but it does the job. I'll throw a pic of the piece up in a bit.

I only go to O'reillys as they are the only people I can stand. They seem to know a little more than the other idiots around here too. So I usually don't get any dumb lines from them.Although...... there was this one fat bastard that was dumb as #### that constantly told me to burn out when...

02 Ford Explorer, 4.0L, non-flex fuel.Here's the story:Snapped a timing chain so I put a junkyard motor in it. Ran for a day and died on me. Timing ok, compression ok. Discovered my retarded ass had to plug wires crossed. Fixed that. Still didn't start. It seems like it is dumping too...

A lot of the grammar Nazis don't harp on simple mistakes though.They harp more on people that type sentences like this you know the ones with no punctuation that go on and on for like 5 lines lol and by the time they are done you have no clue in hell what the person was trying to say...

When my wife went through (year and a half ago) the primary questions they asked were related to crime and terrorism. They want to see what kind of history you have and whether you will end up being a threat to society in the USA.You don't get questioned on history, government, etc. until...

^^^^^ Well you've obviously never lost a rotor on your chopper and then had to drive the eff out of the middle of Afghanistan like I have!!! :hellyeah:

And look at the manifold on it. JDM...................YAY! lol

Look at this champ. It's a bargain.Custom 2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT

That's a good one, I'm going to get my wife with it.

Those sloth memes have given me the best laugh I've had in a seriously long time.

So why don't you tell him to hang onto it for a bit longer, until you get your first pay check from the military?

1 turbos and 0 chances of loosing huh? lol

Currently in Engineering, I'm hoping to get out of the military and put my Top Secret clearance to work as an engineer at Northrup or Lockheed, or some place like that.

I have complete confidence that I could make the trip in my vehicle as well, but still........Ever hear the saying among motorcylce riders, "Don't dress for the ride, dress for the crash". My thoughts are along those lines.

No offense, but this attitude is ridiculous. Using quality parts and making sure that you do work correctly is going to make a difference, but it does not make your vehicle impervious to failures.I do the same as you, I don't cheap out on shit, the only way I go cheap is when I can find the...

I just take everything if I go on a long trip. If I'm in the local area though, I don't bother.But wait, I don't own a DSM anymore, but it's still the same story as it's a VR4. lol

Right. I think.

According to my wife, a Brazilian is just the front. If you want the back done it's called a Sphynx or something like that. Which I think is a hilarious name for waxing your bum bum. Coincidence? I think not.

^^^^^^ Uh, speak for yourself, but as for me and Brian Spilner........ only four or more!

oh yeah, lol.

If that ends up not working you can use a very small blade and cut it, almost to the threads, then use a screw driver to break it up, then clean up the threads if they get damaged at all.

1998 Svt ContourWait, what kind of transmission did you say it has?

3000GT VR4!!! Do it.
