Ladiboi's parents are his roommates, I believe.

He didn't get straight A's either, remember, he is a horrible example of They make him park down the street and make him walk to the house.

Hmm...

once she was pregnant, which happened pretty quickly...she knew she wanted to park indoors. If our rental house hadn't had a 3 car garage where she got used to no dew on the car in the mornings and not scorching hot when she leaves in the afternoon...

I'd have been able to manage it.

I only have 2 cars at my house. My parents are the ones with garage space.

The wife and I park inside, I don't believe in parking any of my cars outside. Shit, the Accord has yet to still see rain. Plus she has the kids so it would be fucked to have her park outside.

If it was just her then shit, bye have fun getting to the car in the rain.

I kid, or do I?

My neighbor drives a Ford Fusion his wife drives a SUV, they claim they can't fit both cars in the garage, he makes her park outside with a 2 year old and a newborn.

My buddy well we aren't as close as we used to be. He's been making his wife park outside for the longest, because his car is in the garage they have a kid and the area they live in is shit....

Maybe I'm a softy.

Gf is sick and is coughing. I just cleaned the room and bathroom and threw some towels in the wash.

She won't cover her mouth when she coughs. She just coughed all over me

I can't afforded to get sick. I'm barely a month and a half into my new job.

Time to respray the room in Lysol and take some more airborne.

/end rant.

That's what I love to hear!
It was the yellow S2000 not being so slammed, having a nice stance...but never hearing the fenders/liners making contact even during ahole (aka spirited) driving on curves and bumps that finally got me to realize I don't want to be that low with the TL either. Advan on, camber is good...and I still have yet to hear the tires touch.

Fk yes.

PS...I call that picture

The car started fine. A little rough to get into reverse. I made it a couple miles from home, stopped at a light, and the car won't go into gear. Had to have people help push me out of the road.

With the car off it will change gears. I feel resistance on the clutch. However, it will also change gears without pressing the clutch down... Turn the car on and it won't go into gear. Well, I primed and primed the clutch and managed to get it into second. So I creeped it home in second.

No fluids in the bay. No fluids in the car by the pedal (master blowout etc). Slave is newish. Never touched the master though. Also the car drove like a champ yesterday... :/

Ideas?

Please god no one say throw out bearing... Lol D:

That sounds identical to when my slave end o-ring failed...pump pump pump...get into gear. But a newish slave should have failed already...that's odd. And there was no really obvious fluid when that happened too, other than a little bit dripping from the boot.

Got out the good flash light...pretty sure you're right. Gotta be less than 20k on that slave. Would the slave mod cause premature wear or what?

Also, if that is the case, why will it switch gears like butter, with the car off, without pressing the clutch in?
