LOL I don't still do that it was about a year ago and I think I was excited about going but the one time I made that trip her dad didn't know who I was, started chasing my car and we both pretty much had the same power (me '11 Mazda 3, him '11 Mazda 6 I4). I tried to evade him and I succeeded but that's only because his daughter (my gf at the time) kept begging him not to chase me. Her parents were super pissed they didn't know who I was, and she told her parents that her ex was driving without a license, that didn't help. Neither of our parents would be okay with it, hers because it was a long distance relationship, and mine because their indian/muslim . After all that one time was fine with me, sounds like a lot of high school drama .

I never erased it, someone else must have. I'm at 124k on the TSX, this thing is running good with just oil changes, my parents don't believe in preventative maintenance (even with me ranting). I'm about to have the TSX for two weeks to myself so that's nice, it's still bone stock.

Eh, I just use it as a placebo that I'm going faster.

Lol, I went to his stand up when he was here in Orlando. He is hilarious, literally had my ribs hurting from laughing so much.

It was cool because he was doing improv. He was literally finding random people in the crowd and picking on them or being interactive leading to jokes. He had a few stories here and there, but I felt like it wasn't a normal show that you see him do on YouTube. IDK, maybe he's running out of stuff to come up with/say.

Aziz is funny as well, but personally I prefer RP.

Brown parents are generally not accepting of bf/gf relationships. It leads to babies, yo.

He takes time to build up his jokes and sometimes they aren't even all that funny, it's like dry humor. He's just more popular from being on P&R and movies.

My bad, rawger is right but it's not just about babies. The indian part because it's tradition to get arranged marriages and dating/getting to know the person is hard to do. Being muslim because they don't want you to date/have relationships... Any girl you ever mention your parents will be suspicious your with her . Plus for some reason brown parents are very racist, they'd get furious if they find out your dating someone especially another race.


Hi MC! How many miles is on your tsx now?

Lol, I was kidding. What I really meant is it leads to sex. But yeah, your explanations are also pretty true.

<p>Depends if you have any misc. protectant or shiny stuff on it from the past. You'll want to get that crud off. Any all purpose cleaner would work (for the dash. be cautious if trying to clean the leather seats).</p><p>I personnaly don't like to spray directly onto the surfaces. Some stuff can leave behind stains/marks. Spray onto applicator pad/towel of choice, then work it in. Give it the necessary dry&nbsp;time per bottle, then wipe off any excess.</p>

<p>Yeah robpp I realize it was a pretty noob question but thanks to both of you for your inputs. I'll be grabbing a bottle soon. Even though I have a 2013, it looks as if it's quite vulnerable to the sun, so better to do this sooner rather than later.</p>

Well, so the bumper was SUPPOSED to be here "Monday at the latest" But then I called them and he now says Wednesday or Thursday.

Tips are cleaned up ready to go, got all that black shit off the inside finally.

Debating on whether or not to do LED reflectors at the same time.

So whenever it comes in i'm putting it on same day, sick of looking at the fucked up rear end

Maybe cuz you don't shift too far into the redline anymore? Purely speculating, but I suspect maybe it happens more to those who take their motors to redline (and beyond with FP), but I'm obviously just assuming here </p>

Well sad sad day, might be parting out my car slowly

Just got a divorce and the wife gets my house so I have to start over. No garage means no place to store my tools and no money means I might have to part out. I have a few things for sale now but I am trying to hold off on selling anything that is on my car but if need be I will have to start selling stuff.

On top of that child support and very little time with my daughter due to money and my Kinsey's are on a decline
