If we get enough interest, I'll see if Tiff can reserve a couple spots again like last time. Definitely need more than 3-4 though.

...
Now I've noticed my front slotted rotors are wearing to the point that the slots are disappearing, more on the pax side. I also notice that my ceramic pads are not gripping as well because the rotor surfaces are looking glazed like they need turned to get a good gripping surface back. Rather than turning them I've ordered a front and rear set of cross drilled/slotted rotors. Should be in within a week or so.
Then...I think I'm done with my maintenance mods.

This happened over in Haltom City, a few blocks away from Haltom High School. I'm not sure what other cars it would fit, but I doubt we'll be seeing them on any cars.. since they took just two.

Anything 5x114.3 which is quite a bit...Prob only jacked two since the amateurs saw the other side was next to a curb. Lesson..wheel locks save lives! And they keep the thief longer there so you can blow there heads off.

Do you guys know if David McDavid will 3x3 drain/refill the ATF with your choice of the fluid as long as you bring it? The car isn't any sort of warranty so I don't see them caring but just curious.
Also I saw a very nice NBP tl /w aspec kit and rear was type-s with stock exhaust and sun visors.
Exited Firewheel pkwy on george bush the other day

Well guess i'll call them before even driving out there.
I wouldn't see why they wouldn't but its not a big deal.
Do you guys know any mechanics in the Rowlett/Garland/Rockwall area that you would trust with a 3x3?

Take it to any quick lube place to have it done. Some of the basic work like fluid changes don't need a dealership to have done. If you don't DIY then do Kwik Kar for fluids.

questionable at that...I have gotten cars from those places at the dealership and refuse to take my vehicle there...I still dont understand how you can fuck up putting in a cartridge filter on a lexus instead they just jam it in there and let it go.
