honestly many of the groups that protest for the "betterment" of mankind and thinking that they will help people by their decisions do more harm than good. Greenpeace is one of the worst acting on emotion and not fact. Years ago in florida they protested having controlled fires in the ever...

mine shook bad when i had them part way down, i think the real issue with it coming off was how loud i have my bass in my car causing vibration on the bolt close to the speaker cone and loosening the nut on the bolt, along with the up and down of the power windows everyday it fell off and broke. tha...

lordyogi

yeah ferotte was a former lion too and how far did that get them, hes only good for about 4 games then he falls apart.yogi

wasnt the dealer that rented me the jag, all of the dealers rentals were out so, damn, i had to go through enterprise and the dealer picked up most of the cost so it was only $20 for the day. as for the tint i will have to talk to the tinting place that i had it done at, it shouldnt be too much even...

lordyogi

took it in today, when they pulled off the door panel you could see that one of the window mounts on the main track that the window motor is attached to was off and sitting in the bottom of the door. what happened was the nut fell off the bolt holding the window mount onto the bar, and it broke and ...

lordyogi

yeah so when i was putting my drivers side window up tonight it seemed to come out of track, when i showed my roommate when i got home i put it down and figured if i held it back onto the track it would be fine and go up. it started to go up then bound and shattered my drivers side window. i would h...

find a good dyno shop, and pay 50 bucks to have your car dyno'd with the air fuel mixture included onto it or pay the little bit extra, then you will know if it is rich for sure, dont go out and spend the money on the Apex-i controller until you know for sure.yogi

lordyogi

sounds like the blaser or sun worm that went around, only affected XP and stuff, i had it and it was not a nice virus. a beautifully written program but a nasty little virus.yogi

my username is derived from the fact that i am the lord of all things yogi.yogi

lordyogi

along the spine isnt that bad, but the farther you get away from the spinal cord the more it hurts. my back hurt way more than my inside arm.yogi

lordyogi

well my avatar is my fraternity letters tattoo'd on my back, i have yogi bear on my left arm, tribal art on my left inside bicep, and curly from the three stooges on my right arm, pretty much the whole ball and tricep area.yogi

lordyogi

your freind is a moron. sorry but he is, and it looked like he couldnt even keep the car in the lane, with oncoming traffic no less, if he keeps doing that he aint gonna be around much longer.yogi

lordyogi

i can sell you my old one its only got like 4500 miles on it, before i put in the cold air intake. so now i have a filter for the vibe that i dont need. i have been lookin to get rid of it, i can clean it and oil it before i send it as well.yogi

lordyogi

the guy had the TRD intake and cat back exhaust on his car, so i was expecting numbers a little closer, but i think the dyno was off a bit anyway, some of the numbers that cars were putting up didnt seem exactly right. im gonna go eventually to a garage that dynos and get it done on a stationary dyn...

lordyogi

hey no prob, there was also a matrix xrs with an auto tranny that only put down 136hp i was startled by the drastic difference in the power loss through the tranny.

lordyogi

went to the Florida Charity Car meet yesterday, and put my GT up on the Dyno. At first the crowd was all like why is that thing goin up there since i was following a WS6, then it ran up and hit lift and was just screamin and people were impressed. i was personally impressed by the 162.1 fwhp that my...

lordyogi

your gonna need some plutonium to generate the 1.21 Gigawatts of power.

lordyogi

i apologize for not showing up today, the philosophy of work hard party harder caught up with me this weekend. last night turned into this morning and a whole buncha other stuff, so i did drive out to orlando, but i did not see any vibes in the cirque parking lot, and i couldnt remember where rainfo...

lordyogi

yeah thats my new backpiece that i got done 2 weeks ago.

lordyogi

you should move to florida then, they finalized the law and it is in effect that you can not smoke in any public building, restaurant that does more than 10% business on food. so this means all restaraunt/bars are no smoking now, all bowling alleys are no smoking, some bars have people eat outside a...

lordyogi

i would say that generally when school is in session my sunday mornings im usually at a 3.5 or 4, of course i always tell people im hardcore, and end up drinking entrirely too much, but im in college and in a fraternity i guess im supposed to be alcohol fueled right. wait...no...i know why i drink s...

lordyogi

even if you had all of 6th left, you wont be able to pull anymore speed out of that gear, its an overdrive gear and we dont have enough hp in our cars to pull that kind of speed out of it.yogi

lordyogi

i would never get one based on the fact that if the car gets hit from the side you are screwed, there is no vertical metal between the passenger and driver door to absorb impact. you get hit broadside you are dead, and passengers arent gonna be feeling happy about it either. suicide doors are sweet ...

lordyogi

coulda been somethin in the gas as well, the station just may have filled their tanks and all the crap in the bottom coulda been rollin around, and gettin pumped into your tank.yogi

lordyogi

yeah above 6k your hitting lift, that is the fun part of the GT, the fuel cut-off/rev limiter is set around 8400rpm, so anywhere between 6 and 8200 is okay, i only go up to the limiter if im at the track.yogi

lordyogi

i should be at both fla meets, matrixowners one because it is like 4 minutes from my house, and i should be close to having my stereo in. had a little hiccup with getting my rims into town, they are re-shipping them, i have a feeling the original set fell off of a truck, and some one bought them a l...

lordyogi

muscle car...GTO started the muscle car craze back in 64 and it will help vault the current HP war in Detroit farther ahead. so i see no reason why it wouldnt be still considered a muscle car.yogi

lordyogi

i would think that would be okay, the cars are on the same platform. the more the merrier i say.yogi

lordyogi

he's gonna take a lot of pressure off of big ben, who is still gonna knock the heads off of sucka point guards who take it to the hole soft.yogi

lordyogi

I should be able to come, I have some mods done but i wont have the JL Audio Vibe GT system in by then but it should be fun. I would like to see some other vibes and see what else people have done to them, i would also like to see people more in my age group that drive them, not that its a bad thing...

lordyogi

funny thing about 2 fast 2 furious is those cars arent really that fast in real life they have and article in Motor Trend with three of the cars, the Yenko Camaro, the Evo VII and the Skyline. The fastest one in real life is the Camaro and it runs 13.4 in the quarter, hell most of the cars in that m...

2.25", comes out off the header at 3" into the catalytic converter then its 2.25" from the cat all the way back through the first resonator and then into the muffler and out to the flared out tip.yogi

im not really sure lingenfelter is doin to much in the way of perfomance tuning these days, from what i hear from some of my friends with vettes, things are pretty much on hold until the man gets out of the hospital.yogi

my friend used to take old ratty socks and put them behind the liscense plate, it seemed to work.yogi

I used to play all the time. Michigan has quite a few nice fields, specially Hell's Survivors. Mainly though me and my friends would go to gravel pits and pine forests and play. My gun that i have is a Spyder TL with a 14" carbon fiber 32 degrees barrel. I used to play with marbalizer paint, or...

lordyogi

fair enough,i understand that they are a different tread pattern, i hope you have good luck in finding tires for your car. Right now since i live in florida, and dont really need to worry about winter weather, i am getting new rims, Quantum Tek S-16's 17" with the Dayton Daytona ZR performance ...

lordyogi

i should be in too depending on date and location, im not too far from orlando. i will have my new rims and tires next week, and my tint isnt very far behind. when i get my financial aid for school in the fall the surplus is going to buy me the jl audio vibe system, so my car will be hooked up come ...

lordyogi

i had a long discussion with the people at tiresplus about the continental rubber. the thing is they are actually a decent tire, they have a low sound when you are on the road, they have good feel to them, thats why they are on luxury cars. but the thing is that any good all season, touring tire is ...

lordyogi

im not really sure you need to upgrade the ignition on these much, if i remember from past posts on here a long time ago the direct coil ignition systems that we have can pretty much handle whatever you throw at em. unless you are goin with all new internals for a turbo and tons of boost where you a...

lordyogi

im sure that it requires a lot of sanding once the fiberglass in roughed in, and as far as im concerned there is absolutely nothing you can do to keep it from getting on your skin, you can wear a mask to prevent breathing it in thats about it. i know this because i have been workin on retro-fitting ...

lordyogi

the clutch in the GT's is tricky, whenever, which is rare, i let me friends drive it they always stall out at first because they are used to the other cars they have driven not grabbing, but slipping a lot more. I burned mine a few times, but you will get used to it. nothing like smelling it after y...

thats why its not worth it to type sarcastically just be heats up, usually when you try to be sarcastic you end up sounding like Nova. i mean damn.yogi

lordyogi

take off your intake and clear your computer by disconnecting the battery for like 30sec, then put it back on if the CIL comes on try the same thing with the stock intake. if it throws the code again with the stock intake on go to the dealer and have them fix it.yogi

student loans are just long waiting period for payback locked interest loans that we use for debt consolitation. most every college student gets em anyway, so i figure i will sink further into debt so maybe i can buy my own bread by the time im 30.oh and im a dual major in Ocean and Civil Engineerin...

woulda been nice to have seen the pistons show up to philly this weekend, prolly woulda been a good game or two.yogi

lordyogi

ive had my cold air for a while now, i believe im well over 2000 miles on it and thus far my CIL hasn't come on at all. I would reccomend going to autozone, they do do those checks for free. when my roommate was burning up O2 sensors with his new headers and was throwing codes every 200 miles he kep...
