Although, whats funny is that it looks like yours has its headlights on for the pic. When i originally took the pics, i took a bunch of them to see which one i liked the best. My next closest pic that i was gonna use had the headlights on. Although, on the other message boards im on, i did use a similar shot only the running lights were on, not the headlights.Thanks Trav.

Hey Speedjunky, I think you're taking it a little too personal man. I think the first week Denny was on this forum Dan wanted to murder him because he bought the same wheels as him. A day later they were BSing together at the meet. Have a little fun man, I wish people would talk more $hit on me for things I do. I always ask stupid questions, I've done stupid things with my car too. And now I'm about to do something even dumber considering I'm probably even more broke than you are. (That's another story.) I couldn't even afford a meal at subway today because my CC was maxed out! Well, one of em was.
Anyhow, having a little fun is always good. It's not like anyone is taking personal shots at you and your family or anything.

hey its Japanese designed let them take care of it........they made it the way it is.
- I still don't know why they couldn't have made that hole a tick bigger than the fuel pump housing and just had a bigger cover plate? One of those questions the world may never know........
Unless of course you know the designer behind the evo and can speak Japanese to ask him?

Money Pits. But we still love them. If EVO's were girls they'd be the decent looking girl who ****s great but buys $5000 worth or flowers for your yard as a surprise for you...........with your own money.
I get a clutch in. AND it turns out **** has sagged or whatever and my DP is rubbing things in that area a little to vigorously. And well hell I might as well put in a new motor mount since it'll be up in the air....
Still worth it.

Guys, I have an ACT HDSS for sale. It's only been used for 500-600 miles and was properly broken in. I never even got to really see how well it shifted above 7K. I wanted to make sure it was all cool and broken in. Anyone interested? I assure you that pedal pressure isn't bad.
(It's kind of sick that I'm cracking jokes about this, but I have to to keep from going absolutely off the wall.)

registration starts at 8:30am....
colin, you would probably be coming down parkway from greentree area, right?
dave, i am not quite sure where you live.
it might be easier to meet on the other side of the tunnels so no one has to back-track. let me know what you guys think.

Looks like the car trouble runs in the family. My sister just got her brand new 328xi last week and within one week her husband broke down in the middle of the intersection. Apparently the radiator fan went bad.
