Front swaybar envy. My buddy just put Hotchkis sways on his Z.

I wish Racing Beat made the 27mm front and 25mm rear bars they had on the MP3 prototype. Can you say flat cornering?

flat understeering... proteges don't like bigger front than rear bars.

Oops, I messed up. RB's MP3 had a 22mm rear bar.

You can go bigger front as long as the rear is big enough to balance it out. You make a point, though.

Maybe the MSP's 25mm front and the RB MP3's 22mm rear.

Too many pipe dreams...

Not that I want to continue this but since you made it public.. oh well I will too.

I wasn't talking about msprotege. Of course you assumed I was, but I'm active (during the summer at least.. not so much when I'm in school) on a LOT (15+ forums) so don't think msprotege is the only one that has a hateful, anti-community owner :P

slander = an attack in my books. If you didn't disappear for days/weeks only to re-appear to be derogatory towards me, I'm gonna take it as an attack. you should know this by now

my pro sat in the hot sun all day today.. my shift **** actually left a burn mark on my hand lol

So far my oil pressure still seems perfect (with the new oil fitting) and it definitely doesn't dip when I enter boost like it did before. .. so I think maybe it has fixed my oil consumption issues yay restricted fitting ftw

slan·der /ˈslændər/ –noun
2. a malicious, false, and defamatory statement or report: a slander against his good name.

Seriously dude? Every time I say something that is REMOTELY anti-Kansei you think I'm on here only to jump down your throat. I've got better **** to do than that. You're not THAT important lol.

And I'm on here pretty much every day. I don't see where you're going with this...

Drop it dude. It's the internet.

It's awesome! Cold? Slap that bitch on. Hot? Slap that bitch on. Need to protect your shifter against STDs (Shifter Transmitted Diseases)? Slap that bitch on! lol


It's not 'hand-knitted', but we'll go with that. Well, maybe it was hand knitted in a sweat shop in china lol. It's just an iPod nano sock. I will maintain my heterosexuality by saying that for the record, I do not own an iPod nano

I think my **** might be too wide for a nano case unless it's really stretchy (as it very well may be since it's knit).. maybe one for the new wide and ugly nano when they come out :P
