My mom and I went to that Burlington at about 10AM and a few cars were out in the parking lot then when we came back outside, there were TONS of awesome cars including a bad ass blue NSX. Then I saw the red G at Subway

What's wrong with your car? Get it up and running already.
Do you need help? If you need an alignment, $30 on the hunter hawk eye system. Best in town.
I need to run you before I add all the meth and tb upgrades.

you can fit an intercooler on the S/C, but it will have to be custom.
the J&R ECU is based off the the MegaSquirt 3.
you can buy the megasquirt3 mainboard for CHEAP, like 300 dollars cheap.
the reason why J&R inflated the price is because, he took the time to figure out how to incorporate it with the TL's ECU.

I have purchased the J&R ECU, but i havent received yet.

that is weird. dont think its a fuse. sometimes, both sides are connected to each others as in if there is no continuity between both, they'll stop working. i would have to look at it in person to see. check the wires and jump em manually from where they plug into the switch.

Hmmmm... I see... we've been driving out 01 Land Cruiser around without using the locks for a few years now and it's finally got to the point of bothering me lol also a big safety concern in my book sine we all just leave the doors unlocked while driving... >.>

^the front is not damaged and the rear only has 2 tiny marks on the aspec lip. Body shop recommended a new lip but I think it can be fixed. Thinking of using the insurance money and add a little to paint the front end as well.

i'm really considering just selling my TL and getting a new car. Age is starting to show and little things that are wrong are really starting to bug me to the point that i don't even like my car anymore.

Very bad cracked/faded dash, chipped windshield, tint is coming off, big dent on my hood, scuff marks on fenders and bumper from parking lot scrapes, plastic piece on passenger door handle flew off(AGAIN) transmission isnt shifting as smoothly, motor mounts are going out(probably why my car shakes randomly), i just hit a fucking huge pothole that was invisible and now one wheel is leaking air, cigarette lighter outlet is out and a bunch of other stuff.

I don't even want to mod my car cause i don't think it will be worth it. I just want to jump into another s2k, audi a5, or a nice lexus.

Whenever I see someone in real life who is probably on the forum (most 3g tl) I give up searching for them after about 10 minutes. Too many threads to search through.
