  1. Mitsubishi Garant...now thats funny! What about a Rancer Evorution?
  2. From what I was told, the only difference and the way the ECU recogonizes the transmission in the car is a ground wire connected from the harness to the ecu mount. Auto's have it, 5 speed's dont.
  3. Wonderful that you are doing good! I completely understand what you are going through, as if some remember my postings from last year when I found out, I also have a brain tumor in the third ventricle of my brain right where the csf flows. Mine is nowhere near the size yours was, currently between a pea and a grape to reference, and I hope daily that it never gets that large. You sound like you have everything under wraps, emotionally and all. If you ever need anything please dont hesitate to message me or call. I joined a great support group based at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center in Winston Salem, Nc and they have helped ease some of the worries I've had. Miracles happen every day don't they
  4. OK I finally got the pics as asked. Sorry again for the delay. It was overcast today so I went ahead and snapped a few more engine shots without the glare the others had. Also took one of the spare tire area. I've seen some quite nasty and this one is perfect. http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv236/Robertnfamily/SAM_1176.jpg http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv236/Robertnfamily/SAM_1173.jpg http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv236/Robertnfamily/SAM_1175.jpg http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv236/Robertnfamily/SAM_1174.jpg http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv236/Robertnfamily/SAM_1179.jpg http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv236/Robertnfamily/SAM_1177.jpg http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv236/Robertnfamily/SAM_1178.jpg In regards to all the crud in the hatch section of this fine automobile, I was asked by a friend to use my car to go to the home depot to get some "stuff". I didn't ask because I figured he would have common sense. Some of the "stuff" consisted of 2 hay bales. I've been picking hay out of my car for over half a year.
  5. Thanks for the kind words guys. Sorry but I wasn't able to snap the pics of the back seats and rear cargo area today as asked. I'll get them tomorrow I promise. Back seat area I'd rate a 9.8 out of 10 due to needing a nice cleaning and leather treatment to make it nice n soft, and the rear cargo area just needs cleaned so a 9 out of 10, but pics to come. Sorry again guys...
  6. I have a few VM threads recently I'll try to link up here so people can read through them. It's probably something simple since I've already gone through everything else and just dumped literally hundreds upon hundreds in her before I just got a new DD. Driveable, yes, untill it gets all nice and warm then it doesn't like to. However it acts different with the stock injectors than it does with the new delphi's. Go figure...Either way both sets of injectors come with the car. I didn't mention that before. I think the stock secondary is messed up. Not 100% sure though.
  7. Here's what I took. She brought the camera home for me during her lunch. I know I'm supposed to wash the car and detail and it all before I take pictures, but whatever. You can tell she's good and clean though on the inside under all the dirt . http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv236/Robertnfamily/SAM_1146.jpg http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv236/Robertnfamily/SAM_1145.jpg http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv236/Robertnfamily/Interior-1.jpg Here's a few of the engine bay http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv236/Robertnfamily/EngineInjectorSide.jpg http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv236/Robertnfamily/EngineTurboPic.jpg Here's a few of some of the build tags http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv236/Robertnfamily/BuildTags.jpg http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv236/Robertnfamily/CodeTags.jpg By the way, did I mention I had a ton of paperwork from previous owners that come with the car, including the original window sticker????? http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv236/Robertnfamily/TitlePic.jpg Also I forgot to mention stuff like I've gone through the pain in the bum job of replacing the rear deck speakers with decent one's from pioneer. Doors too. (Dashes can kma). Has aftermarket CD player but stereo controls on steering wheel as you can see in photo are perfect if you're into restoring to original. AC controls are great condition. Seats have no rips/tears/splits.
  8. Before I got my DD I have now I would have. Now I'm going to have to pass due to needing the cash for the house instead of a car. We just got a Camry for a steal that runs perfect so I'm set on the DD area for a spell. Thanks for the offer though and GLWS! Clean clean car!
  9. Rockauto has your front calipers, loaded with pads, for only $30 a side. I'm assuming you have a 5 lug TSI. Front rotors they have for like 15 bucks each and rears for 18 each. Dont forget the discount code either. Saves like 5% or something. Rockauto is FTW for our cars!
  10. I would love to see one of the few remaining ones. Truly a memorable experience as when they are gone, they will be gone. I watched a show about the private sector as Burton was saying. Seems the guy from Virgin has that mostly under wraps and is leading the way. Trying to make an "economy" space flight for the general public. I wonder what an economy flight would cost? Didn't that backstreet boy guy pay the russians like a mil or something to shoot him into space for a day?
  11. While we've done quite a bit of investigating into deep space in the recent past, the shuttle's have been quite a let down to the general public. While billions upon billions of dollars kept getting dumped into them, very little changed except testing instruments. Compare the shuttle Discovery with the exploded Challenger, with Atlantis, with any of them. It appears design hasn't changed in 30 years. Of course I have zero idea what I'm talking about and am only going on appearance, but I would think in 30 years changes in appearance would have been made. I wonder...if they invented a Veyron 30 years ago, would it be changed by now? Maybe they are retiring them to redo the fleet with newer models that can travel farther than just outside our immediate orbit. Who knows..
  12. Happy Bday dude. Met him at a meet last summer. Good people. Have a great day!
