Dudes...Betty's Dad has worked in the car business her entire life. Never went more than 2 years without a new car.

First time she kept the 08 Accord until it needed new tires she was like... HOW much are new tires!?!? Can't I just trade the car in?

Yeah, I agree with her as well. The Corolla is just my commuter anyway.

Man, I was going to pull the whole door off, I'm glad you told me.

I lowered the Corolla because it was too 4x4 for my liking.

I drove my old boss' 05 5MT Corolla...damned thing was pretty fun.
Sometimes I feel like buying the absolute ugliest fucking car that has a 1.6L 1980's motor that gets 40MPG and buying it and sanding it so the car rusts and lowering it down on some spacers.

Because fuck it.

That might be the stupidest thing you've ever said.
Have you ever fucked someone that you're no longer talking to?
Have you ever cum?
Better take that shit seriously if she wasn't laughing, fool.

no turns out it's a freaking prank call website after I googled the number. I was genuinely WTF'ed for a moment because she said she was Jessica (don't know any Jessica) but a barmaid named Sabrina has the exact same voice. Now I'm texting my brother and he ain't answering.


Edit: Yep, my brother. That fucker made me sweat still.

I barely get that if I combine my car's gas mileage...that bitch is a unicorn. Ugly is good, that means you don't care where you park and if someone dings you.

Vehicular freedom, my friend.

PB...glad to hear you haven't procreated. That made me sweat a little too. Imagine :pb: and :littlepb:

Man I wish you guys spoke french I could upload the recording of my phone call. Her text is way too good, cause I was like "Jess??" and right away she answers "Jess! Jessica, cmon don't tell me you don't remember!"


Yeah no :lilpb:, yet.


And that's what I liked about beaters. You ever open your door willingly in someone's car after having to enter by the passenger door cause they're so close? I did. It's a liberating experience. /thug life

Had to move to a different Viet coffee shop, the other one catered to middle aged men, so it was a middle aged Viet lady service coffee.

This one has 2 younger Asian girls with huge fake bolt ons

Biensur...my conjugation sucks but that's because I learned as a kid and didn't care to learn it correctly. I used it every summer and sometimes with my Dad (here) but mainly, it just lays dormant. Helped a TON with learning Spanish...with Mother's side speaks in Mejico.

Anyway...

Mizzy...it's a picture...we didn't say take a picture and whip out your dick and ejaculate on them tittays!

Actually, recorded a short clip to show my brohams at work tomorrow of a girl at the gym. I didn't realize that she was looking straight at me with a WTF look on her face until I zoomed in on my video. I pretended to be a little "special" and pretended to text all sideways and weird until she looked away. GAH...so embarrassing.

"Pretended"



Spanish is definitely easier when you already have a latin base.

And brakes in the back, might as well do fronts too though. ~_~

Thanks ladies, keep it classy. That'll be $100.

Polo...I swapped my cracked LCA bushings for new ones with extra window weld. Felt zero difference.
^ This.. on all levels. Also, it's not always in the Jetta. Sometimes the owner pulls it out in sketchy neighborhoods, since it's invaluable and all.

It's a boat because you need better tires and suspension tune up.

Yeah I'm grasping at straws. It didn't really feel like this last summer or during winter.


And no, sorry Maj, it's as straight as a male dance club can be.

I don't know about that, sure they're gonna last forever (or so they say) but it's a bit cost prohibitive. I have yet to check the pricing for the OEM ones here though, so my opinion might change down the road...

to each their own i guess. I'd rather get it done once and not worry about it (as much) then have to pay to get it done few more times down the line. convenience of "doing it right the first time and not worry about it" again outweighs $ in my personal opinion. I just can't stand paying for something that will break again anyway. why not opt for a potential better solution and take a gamble. It's a price i'm willing to pay for the slight possibility it WILL last the lifetime of my TL.


But yeah, it's a "so they say" type thing so there's always the possibility of them failing too.

I won't be letting someone else do it though. If I had to bring it somewhere for them to do it for me I agree I would opt for the PCI after paying for an hourly rate to get to them.
I think the job really won't be all that difficult.... minus the rusted bolts and nuts. Now that's gonna be fun, I checked quickly and they look welded.

There's your savings then I tried removing LCA bushings on my Accord a few years back and failed miserably...Didn't have a machine press and my rigged up one didn't do the job right.

I'll probably remove LCA myself and take it to a shop to get it pressed in though.

I can get them pressed out at my uncle's so that's that. If I REAAAALLY can't get it out hopefully by that time my uncle will be back to normal and able to help me.
