Um....BACK ON TOPIC...

My biggest gripe is the notchy trans! I have put in better fluid, got an mgw shifter, adjustable clutch quadrant and pedal height adjuster, but it still sucks. Why is it still such a pain to get into each gear? :bash:

I tried but its people like newbread77 that wont accect us.As I qoute "get a car from this century".Also a lot of cobra owers think they have the fasts cars around and it makes me sick.:xpl:Aleast Stangette03 is willing to accept anyone no matter what they drive or say.:-D
I don't think my car is the fastest on the road and I don't give a crap either. What the problem is when people like yourself come on our forum spouting off stuff like look I have a GT, it's all motor baby and can kick a terminators ass, you guys have to have a blower, just gets old.

he didn't ask for anyone else's biggest thing they hate actually, just shared his, so you're all off topic unless you're talking about HIS biggest hate :)

I hate jealous punks that think it's cool to rip your front bumper off and smash up your heat exchanger when you're out of town. It's at the body shop right now waiting on the insurance company to get back to us. When I walked up to it after I got back, I just started getting sick to my stomach. I hate people like that.

i hear you. it's like watching your doors when you get out of the car. i won't even damage a geo. it's a respect thing.

I just wish our cars weren't so damn heavy! If our cars would tip the scales like the fox body's do, then it would be a whole new ball game.

my bitch needs a diet,

+1 on that, but I can understand someone being careless as opposed to someone just vandalizing your car for the fun of it. They didn't steal anything or even try to steal anything, they just destroyed it. :cuss:

+1 on that...Last week some lady driving a s500 literaly kicked her door open and came within an inch of hitting my door. I figured someone who owns a car like that would respect it but boy was I wrong!:(

+a *lot*. Lessee... seats, k-member, block, wheels & tires, hood, fenders, so many ways to save a few pounds, so few dollars to pay for them... :rolleyes: Oh yeah, 2-piece brake rotors, aluminum calipers, and an a/c delete!

i was sitting in my truck in a stall once and someone pulls in next to me. open the door...nails my truck with it. look at me and just says "oh sorry" and walks away.



they ended up with a large dent the size and shape of my fist when they got back.

this dent was placed on a rather complex compound curve on the body of their vehicle. asshole.

yikes that sucks. i'm sure people's cars get hit all the time that way. i just try to overlook what i think may be a doording so i don't retrace my steps and kill someone.
