So I just put in an order for Redline MT-90 75w90 and Synthetic Gear Oil of the same weight.

Is Redline as good as people really say it is? Im running ATF and have been for the passed month or so, but I just realized my tranny is a No-Label tranny and I need synthetic gear oil. That, and I really need to put an LSD Oil in my Diff

Alright I really need an early model shift carrier assembly from someone. I know most of u guys just toss them in the trash, so I'm sure someone has one lying around. Need it by Friday!!

hahaha.. holy mother of turbo lag..

but you those little Mercedes boys dont know shit about diesel.

i want a turbo diesel that makes tons of power so i can leave hugeeeee trails of smoke behind and laugh at people in their prius' and the cops.

OMG those are ridiculous! i thought 3 blown V8's in a row was crazy....then came the jet engines. omg.

right, like wtf???

Who knows about phones?

Looking to upgrade to a smartphone/android etc..
might get the HTC one s, since were with t-mobile.

any input, suggestions, reading material?

wait until the galaxy 3 is released.

iPhone

no.

definitely getting insurance!!!




I dont have ATT, a-holes, the att/t-mobile merger didn't happen, but i hear late 2012 t-mobile will have iphone >_< I do want a newer iphone, i have the first ever iphone that came out.

thank god the att merger didn't happen. tmobile is getting much better and as of now, better than att. obviously the best right now is verizon. ALSO, if i were you, get your insurance from squaretrade.com.

Ayman, my renewal will be up in Sept-Oct.
I'm looking for a different kind of plan, that's way cheaper than the $190+ I pay for 2 phones now. Could you better than that?

damn dude, if you don't wish to be with tmobile anymore, then leave to verizon. if you don't mind, wait til it's over and make them switch you to the no contract $50 a month. we pay $180 a month for 4 phones with unlimited text/data and like 600 minutes a month since we don't really call anyone.

Fuck the iPhone. Go Android or go home.

thank you. android system is by far more advanced and will further be advanced than the iphone.

iPhones. Forever and evermore.
So much simpler to use; so much less a hassle

fanboy.

i hear they are backwards compatible with the new ipad 9 too.

Why do I NEED to be more advanced..? Having worked with Apple vs. Microsoft software before, I have firsthand knowledge to say your statement is 100% false to begin with; I'll humor it regardless. I'm driving an e30 for starters.. thats not exactly the most advanced car out there, but its gots its perks. I could be driving hundreds of cars that could be "better" and "more advanced" that have much more "features", but why do I need anything "better" than my e30..?

Same argument I'm using now. I dont need a friggen screensaver that moves; lolwut. I dont need to be USB compatable; lolwut. I dont need a kickstand so I can be lazy while watching a movie; lolwut. I dont need an HDMI connector; lolwut. I dont need to take 3D pictures; lolwut.
Its cool to have, but why does my phone need it? I would like to think of the last time I was ever walking down the street and though "OH CRAP! I NEED TO PLUG MY PHONE INTO THIS HDMI CABLE STAT!" or "Huldon guise!! I need to taek dis pic in ThreeDeeeee!"

Phone companies are trying way to hard to be better than Apple and make garbage over-complicated phones. I owned an LG Vu for 2 years and bought it cause it was the first phone with live video streaming and TV channels. WORST IDEA EVER. I hardly used the video fuction, and the phone ran like crap. For the $200 I paid for it, I coulda had a (what was then) top of the line iPhone 3G. A lot of the owners of current phones are gonna think the same exact thing in a years time.

If you ask me. Phone companies are going WAY overboard with trying to get you on their bandwagon with introducing much more overly complicated phones that dont work right or have stupid, unnecessary functions

More stuff to go wrong IMHO

/rant

fanboy.

You know it! And no over-blown luxury bloated droid argument will change my mind. I have my reasons why Apple is better, and while those reasons are subtle, it makes for a better quality, software and hardware, phone.

[turge]

arent u just doing a 5 speed swap?

Nah, had to put in a new motor as well. Good news is that everything is working now. Followed this tutorial:

Needless to say I have cruise control too. :D

Also... a video will be up soon. just editing atm.

Agreed.

Android is better in many ways, but I'll always find myself coming back to the iPhone regardless.

If you're referring to battery life, that is the one thing that the iPhone has over most stock Android phones. This is mainly because the carriers install all sorts of bloatware. Many custom ROMs and Kernel combinations can exceed the iPhone in battery life, functionality, etc...

Nope. Not referring to anything. Just like a Subie vs. an Evo. Evo beats it in almost all categories though I'll still find myself wanting to buy the Subie.

[Ayman]

it's kinda just like pc vs mac, it comes down to preference. there's really no fact as to which is better between those or android vs iphone. I know for sure I like the gps on my evo cause the screen stays lit when I'm driving, or well when i used to drive, so it'd act like a dedicated gps. The kickstand also helped since the phone would sit on the center console underneath the hvac panel, the iphone's screen however turns off like after 2 minutes. Really comes down to what you use your phone for, that sole example helped me as a delivery boy. But as of late I've been leaning towards the iphone, I really like the product support it has, but then again I feel like Apple would sell everyone's info to the government so they can stick straws in our heads and suck our brains out. That's just me though.

honestly, just get something 75w90. iirc i'm running the same $6/qt valvoline with friction modifier in both my trans and diff, mostly because it's cheap and i could do both at the same time.

nigel should have leftovers from the mtech swap.

well said!
