My poor 3k...
Hey guys, guess who's baaaack God I've been gone forever. Who missed me? Lol j/k. I wish I was comin back on a better note, but... my poor girl's been busted for a couple of weeks... She got her timing belt done a little while back, and a couple of weeks ago, it went... The freakin' guy who did it must have done it wrong, and I would ask him but everytime I see him I get pissed off... So avoidance is probably better. Anyways, all her intake valves are bent, among various other things. Anyone who's ever had their 3k taken away from them must know how it feels, especially when there's a prob with the engine. I open the hood, and there's just.. something missing... literally. It tears me apart. But after calming my rage, I realized I get to tinker with the motor now in ways I couldn't before... So that's held me over for a little while. I really miss her though, and I'm sick of driving my mom's '03 Ranger... It's tough goin from a sports car to a dinky little truck... You have to completely change your driving style... And I can't race anything with even a remote hope of winning. But it's good to be back here anyways I'll let ya know what's going on with her...

Re: My poor 3k...
Wooo! Another SL to talk to Sorry, but being a lone SL in a sea of VR4's is overwhelming sometimes. And when all you start to talk about turbo's I get jealous, so any SL people to talk to is a welcome change What color is yours?

Re: My poor 3k...
its red, yea i know how you feel all those vr4's and we lowly sl's cant compete, but our cars are still very fast in my opinion we can still beat 99% of other cars out there.

Re: My poor 3k...
I lost to more than one car... I lost to a corvette... a viper, an rx-7, an m3, a supra, and a pos civic sleeper with a type r motor... That's all I can remember anyways. But each was to be expected... Except that damn civic *sulks*

Re: My poor 3k...
Good to be back... And I have no idea when it's coming back. Soon I hope, 'cause driving the truck is driving me insane. Nothing happens when you step on the gas... Oh well, my car will seem insanely fast to me for a while when I get it back... Parts are coming in the beginning of next week. But I'm gonna give her a new paint job after that, so it'll still be a couple weeks...
