Vegas - I am a GTR fan all the way! Cost is definitely a huge factor though. The superintendent I work with just bought a brand new '08 C6 for $42k. I am just not a V8 guy myself. I need boost! I suppose you can do the turbo thing on the vette...I just think there are waaaayyy too many out there. That's one of the reasons I love the Evo - there really are not too many in the area.

speaking of which - i must have seen 6 vettes in one day on 495. but not one evo.

it must be nice to have to decide between a vette and a gtr............i'm turning in cans to put gas in my tank........................

dave i think the macbook pro is the way to go especially if you are going to use it mainly for graphics but i think a 15" will be sufficient. Unless you are in school i would definitely NOT want the 13" screen, way to small imo. But then again, that is what she said.

yeah...that's one of the areas where i disagree that bigger is better....

a laptop should be portable and tiny...

I already have a 15" weiner (around), what do I need a 15" lappy for?

:-) Still deciding...

The trans takes 3 Qts and the front / rear diffs each take essentially 0.6 quarts. We did have extra left over from our purchase...i can check to see how much when I get home.

You'll want a measuring funnel with a shut off valve for the transmission fluid.... you fill it up, 1 quart at a time, and then open up the valve to drain the funnel, through a tube, right into the tranny. Simple stuff.

You'll want a tube-style fluid pump for the diff fluid. This looks like a caulk- or grease- gun but works much like an old-school water gun... you dip the hose-end into the diaqueen and suck some up...then you can put the hose end into the differential and pump it in until it comes back out the fill-hole.

You need the car to be level for this operation...you can verify that it's evenly raised up by placing a level on the frame rail... for my car we had the front on ramps and the back on a jack...or all the other cars we pull all 4 wheels on ramps...both methods worked fine.... 4 ramps was much easier.


All in all, it's an easy operation...just make sure the aluminum washers stay on teh drain/fill plugs and don't fall into your fluid catch pan...
