That's something Chad would say!

TacoBello

J, clearly you don't know how the forums work yet. You'll get there

Clearly there's two sides to every story- I'm starting to feel I shouldn't have been as hard on Paul as I was. I still feel his ban was justified, but, I can see why he treated frosty like a dip shit.

TacoBello

We all knew you were joking! Well, at least I did. That's why I don't trust crabs

TacoBello

Got my ingrown toenail removed yesterday afternoon. Didn't think I'd be blue to get it done so fast, but damn, it felt good to get it removed. The doc was surprised how deep the fucker went. He removed a good 1/4 inch of my nail!

I've read good comments about Paul as well. But, something went terribly wrong with that tranny swap for sure!

polobunny

This usually makes a terrible wingman. Don't want to fight for the ladies.
You'll excuse my almost holier than thou attitude, but I don't need to treat people like shit to expose a fraud or a silver-spoon fed kid trying to fuck me up. They usually end up digging their own grave.

Only takes one. If Paul didn't feel comfortable he shouldn't have accepted the job in the first place. Sometimes greed as well as other personal life events make you do stupid shit...

TacoBello

Has nothing to do with being "holier than thou". It's all about just being a straight up, no nonsense kind of person. I refuse to sell a car without full disclosure, because the last thing I need is for a pissed off new owner to throw a Molotov cocktail through my window.

If I know I'll take a hit, ill weight my options to see if it's worth fixing and then selling, or just selling at a lower price. That's the only two options, at least in my mind.

That will conclude my tossing of J's salad for the day. Who's next?

polobunny

I've took some winter beaters to the scrapyard before while others claimed I could still sell it. Scrap yard gave me a $100 and I called it a day.

Sell it for what anyway? $500? Then have some single mom kill herself and her kid cause the rear calipers had no pads left on them and were grinding directly on the rotors? What if you're taking someone inheritance money from their recently deceased father?

You know how I'd feel if something like that happened? Fuck that. I'd rather stay clean, honest and have no regrets when I die.
Such a bro.

Quick question for you all: Any way to make an AT TL NOT switch from 1st to 2nd gear on its own?

polobunny, I believe certain years upshifted on its own in 1st and 2nd.
which year did you have?

polobunny

'04. Lemme guess, '04-'05 did it on their own? It's annoying/awkward sometimes. Not terribly so, but enough that you have to think that first will switch on it's own, which detracts from driving.

justnspace

you got it.

i think its even 04-06 that upshifts on its own. i have a 6MT, so im not too sure and why im injecting the words think/believe into the sentence

Yumcha

Oui.

What about a Bloc Quebecois logo on your shirt?

Yumcha

Back from -ing...

Jamie's 08 TL

My 08 has never shifted from 1st to 2nd on its own. But then again, I've never tried to see how fast I could go in 1st.

Yumcha

Wait...who's my bro?

polobunny

Prob makes sense. UA6 vs UA7 I imagine.

Not my cup of tea. I think that separation shit is stupid.

If you drive slowly it'll shift somewhere around 2000 rpm to 2nd gear. If you floor it, it'll keep going until redline or so then shift it on its own.

It's not that terrible and a better compromise than full auto, but that "issue" is kind of a pet peeve of mine regarding it.

Thanks for the help, and I do agree, but a deal's a deal.
Paid 8600 kanuckistan dollars for a 04 AT NBP in perfect mechanical condition with a set of winter tires, weathertech mats, 85K miles on the odo. Only ones I found cheaper were US VGA cars that got rebuilt or with much higher mileage, this one's a Canadian car that never had anything claimed to the insurance.
Maybe next one.

Yumcha

I agree. But, seriously...if Quebec wants to separate? Go for it.

I think the rest of Canadark would yawn collectively. One less headache. Honestly, who gives a f*ck about the Frenchie/Quebecois "culture"...?






Although, Montreal chicks...hotness.

polobunny

I wouldn't go there, I'm a Frenchie born in Montreal from French heritage, but that doesn't stop me from getting along with everybody else either English speaking Quebecer or from another province.

I just think it's ridiculous that QC can't bury the hatchet in fear of "losing" our culture and why the rest of the provinces just keep hating because of the French language. We're genuinely nice people.
Heck, my GF is Ontarian from the GTA. She doesn't speak French and I don't really care.

You don't see us wanting to separate Richmond/Vancouver BC away from the rest of Canada?

Another place that should go separatist a la -ers? Orange County.
