Basically it says this:
You send in your ECU, and we reprogram it so that it automatically tunes your car for you. It also has some more options like higher redline and auto A/C shutoff.
Now, I have no idea how well it works since I hadn't heard of it before.. but the concept seems pretty cool.

well i got the car back and everything is fine now.. the cop never showed to the court date so i got off with everything except the expired tabs fine! so since i got it back my car was let out of the impound at no cost to me! but on the other hand i saw the supra in the impound and it is fucked up! it looks repairable but its gunna take a shit load of money to repair it! if i see him i will still probably knock him out cause he fucked with me but thats about it... since i didnt get into that much trouble i am really not that pissed about it anymore, but from what i hear he got 90 days in jail and felony charges cause the cop came to his court case :iceslolan so i guess he got what was coming to him! LMAO oh well!

Little modifying can take a stock one... I raced one at higher psi on stock turbo and a few mods.. it's pretty quick. It will spin tires on launch, where mine spins the clutch only. He drops it at 6500rpm, so his drivetrain won't last long.

i used to hide Hot Damn! in my locker in HS!!! ..lol.. but ya, this forum is about cars, and drinking isn't that cool, despite what you think of yourself when ur drunk. although it may also be used as the following: courage elixer, intelligent thought remover, ego booster, muscle enlarger/physique builder, facial enhancer [yours and hers], conversation lubricant, police magnet, and i'm sure there are a multitude of other usefull purposes. kinda reminds me of wd-40 for life, great stuff but if you use too much it makes a mess and falls down a lot [get it?]
i think chicks are a great topic, if only this were hornylonleyguysbsingaboutcarsforums.com then somone might ask how old you were when you first got laid instead of ur first lame ass kiss...

take a tumbler glass [looks low and fat, like for drinking stuff on the rocks] and fill 1/2 full of Bud Light. take 1 shot 151 and light on fire. carfully drop into the glass as to not break either [gets difficult after 3 or 4] and do not burn fingers [and now you will see that any more than a 1/2 full glass will overflow when the shot is put in] then drink as fast as possible!!! [this is called a 'Burnt Nose' you will see why on your 3rd one ;) ] this is a great drink mostly because it is fun to light things on fire and then drink them but also to impress girls unto your sophisticated ways. you can also add a bit of Amaretto liquere to the shot and it becomes a 'Flaming Dr. Pepper' because, amazingly enough, it tastes exactly like Dr. Pepper [and is also a great way to get chicks hammered 151 style, not that i would know anything about that :naughty:. proceed to beat up your friends and fall down merrily... i learned that at bartender camp, which happens to be connented to stripper camp :naughty:

03-24-2004, 08:20 PM
o ya, you may be thinking "why bud light?" well from my experience it tastes the best with the concoction. i am a Corona [was] drinker myself with Sam Adams thrown in there at dinner. Corona is too good of a beer to not thouroghly enjoy and everything else is just too expensive. miller is for chicks and all the water in coors will put out the fire too soon... j/k whatever you want will work, it's the bubbles that make it a great deal.

After I got done drying it, I noticed that all 4 of my rotors RUSTED! WTF! They wern't rusted when I started washing. :( So then I say fuck it, and start waxing...
Then after that I start the car up... and i rolled back a little bit and I hear the pads scraping the rust off.
I then went up my driveway and rolled back down with the brakes pressed in a little bit. And got some of it off, but there is some left. I hope the rest will come off when i drive the car next time. DAMN RUST! :disappoin

ey i got a quick question for you guys. you guys, know those spoilers that usualy give downforce to a RWD car?, and if you install one of those spoilers to a FWD car, it will slow the car down because its a FWD. what if you put one of those on a AWD? would it effect it anyway? slow it down? im sort of confused on this topic and i was thinkin' of it last night, and it confused like a blonde at a stop light. :rolleyes:
and no im not plannin' to buy one of those huge ass spoilers or anythin' like that!
I just want to get this out off my head :)

Spoilers don't 'slow your car down', they add downforce, which increases the faster you go. Downforce pushes the car down, like a plane's wing has lift. The added pressure on the tires increases friction between the wheels and the ground, so viola, more traction.
They also increase drag, so if you aren't turning at high speeds, you wouldn't want one. Drag of course slows you down, much like trying to get a bus past 100mph.
My guess if you put a spoiler on an AWD car, it would make the rear tires not lose traction while the fronts do on a corner, so you would get more understeer, yay.
