Seriously OT: The Real 3rd Thready...

Picture it laying frame with some nice big wheels. Think it would be worth $300 and a few hundred hours of body work?
Hellz yeah. That's a pretty sick looking car, I'd rock it.

Its a 60 model Buick Electra. Weighs in at almost 5 thousand pounds. I found one here, but it has a terminal case of cancer around the rear deck. I'm thinking of getting it though... you rarely ever see those, only had that body style for two years an and the four door hard tops are rare within those two years even. I have no repsect for vintage steel.... it would be molestly like any other car that crosses my path.

whoa, new upgrade is freaky.

It's just temporary. Old look should be back by Tuesday.

I actually like this one better, minus the huge font size. And damn, the avatars actually show up (hoping it stays that way). And holy shit it's running fast (or it could be that no one's on here hehe).

The new layout makes me feel like a dirty whore, and not in a good wholesome way.

this layouts fucked, but im sure i'll get used 2 it like the old one

Nero blowz. I've gone through 6 or 7 blank cd-r's since christmas, and everyone of them are useless. Yet when I tried to burn a cd with WMP, I didn't have 1 single problem. I hate computers...

im starting to get used to it.

i hope it'll be better tomorrow though.

Heh, I walked outside earlier, and there across the street there was a cowboy, sitting inside my neibors garage, atleast 10 feet tall. Smoking. Later on I was driving, and the floorboard turned into water.

New sig for me.

New sig for me.


Why to BIG

Too big, and file size is too big.


Funny thing is, I havnt droped in years. Strange time for a flashback... and really long ones at that... like 2-3 seconds.

I get the sometimes when I'm really tired or really really high (off The Pot). I remember about a year after I stopped doing it, I had flashbacks every night for about 6 months straight...not a fun time to say the least. And I had a friend who I gave some to (when I was still doing it), and she was "stuck" in a trip for like 3 days straight. She couldn't sleep and was just tripping her ballz off...errr, well not exactly. Crazy shit that stuff is.

heh, anyone ever seen a spark plug explode?

nope....but i love the song Like a Spark in the Dark :D

initial d 4-evar

heh, anyone ever seen a spark plug explode?

how the hell do you make a spark plug explode?

I dont know, it just did.

heh, anyone ever seen a spark plug explode?

No... but I have seen an ashtray explode.

I saw your mother explode all over three guys in Gushers III.

Naw that was me after my operation. It's amazing the kind of surgeries they can do nowadays.

Hum... I think you might have to move back into my basement.

I just puked in my mouth from reading that :D

Mother fucking cock ass sexually molested dick in the mouth japanese scat movie. Anyon elses tape measure lie to them today?

Another new sig...Last one was too big...

I'v been working on a new sig, I just cant get it the way I want it though.

Oh yeah, 1000th post in this off topic thread. And my post count is 5353.

We still have a long ways to go. The first one lasted for 6200+ posts. Let's beat it.

Well, it finally happened... as of right now my car is FUCK'D!

**Short Version so I don't bore people - Fuckidy fuck fuck. Car overheated, kept driving, coolant everywhere, drove some more, engine knock/rattle, check engine light; big fucking hole in my radiator. (believe me you'll thank me for the short version.)**

So tomorrow I have to buy a new thermostat, snag my friends old radiator (maybe trade him my slipstreams for it and for helping me do the work), coolant, and possibly a headgasket (all at Pep Boys employee discount). Of course this is best case scenerio, but with my luck (and that fucking knock!) I probably fucked the whole engine up. Luckily I have a great friend and he let me borrow his 4dr to get home and back tomorrow.

yep, rod knock, very nice, so, head gasket, head bolts, main bearings, rod bearings, new crank, and uh yea, ur fucked
buy a new motor

Radiators are cheep man, dont trade wheels for a radiator.

Why would you buy a new crank derek?

yep, rod knock, very nice, so, head gasket, head bolts, main bearings, rod bearings, new crank, and uh yea, ur fucked
buy a new motor
Sweeeet, that's what I'm looking forward to. My friends didn't seem like they were that worried when I told them about the knocking, but they also didn't get to hear it. It wasn't any pansy ass heat shield rattle either (I hear that every time I put my car into a higher gear too soon).

I know radiators are cheap, but he'll also be helping me do what needs to be done (like when I have $, he'll help me with my swap/turbo). And I want to get rid of the rims anyways, and I bought them from him originally. Either that or I'll see if one of his friends wants them. I don't even know what I'm currently typing, I'm so high right now; just to dull the pain. But if I'm having problems now, I think my dreams of eventually having a high comp turbo'd D just died. Fuck that, stock itr or h22a swap with basic bolt-ons for me (ok...maybe an OE honda cam or 2). I said funk dat.

silent, depending how bad the bearing spun, it could have scored the crank, either u get it micro polished, or replace it

lol "micro polished" Quit trying to be technical, makes you look like a bigger dumbass.

No more knock, check engine light, or over heating. I replaced the radiator (I'll post some pics of the bad one tomorrow when it's light enough outside to take some), bought a new thermostat, and did an oil change. I started the car and drove it into the garage and didn't hear 1 noise, so I got excited right off the bat. Put some water wetter shit in there for good luck and filled that bad boy up. We drove it down the road (about a miles length) and the temp stayed a little below the ½ way mark the whole time, and my heater hasn't blown such hot air for a year now. So I said screw it and just drove home, about 25+ miles. I didn't get a chance to check the run off tank because it's so damn dark out now, but I still have 1 concern. The second radiator hose (connected at the thermo housing) didn't warm up much at all, actually it was still kind of cold. Although it is a '94 CX (gutless 70hp) so maybe it won't heat enough to make the thermo open unless it's really hot. <- Yup, that's me praying. And I may have found the main problem, a nice foreign object that I found underneither the radiator (I'll take a pic of that tomorrow as well). But I only spent $45 today, so it wasn't too bad for a thermostat and gasket, oil filter, coolant, and 6qts of quaker state high mileage oil.

thats what its called

Here's some pics of the damage: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v473/CivicSpoon/rad1.jpg

And here's what I found under the radiator when it was removed:

No, that's not a turd. When my friend saw it, he said it looks like a piece of spring that broke off and I'd have to agree. It's all rusted up and there is black plastic almost completely pealed off. When I go to his house (a few time a week) I drive by a few construction sites and have hit metal in the road before, so that's probably where it came from.

you know water wetter is bad in a street car right? It breaks down and destroys your system...

Lower radiator hose never gets hot in my car... fan on all the time.

Don't smoke and drive and you won't hit foreign objects and have to perform sexual favors for replacing radiators in your car...

I type big.

Mmmm.... concreete and copper tubing... one of my favorites.

LOL. The time I know I hit something (a big metal pipe), I wasn't high. When I came near it I thought it was a paper towel roll tube, but as I was about to hit it I realized what it was. But even then I doubt that was it, because it hit my drivers side tire, bounced under the car and landed cleanly on the shoulder of the road. And when I'm driving down that particular road, it's usually dark out and there are no street lights at all for most of it. So even if I did hit something (like that metal I found), I wouldn't even see it. And I didn't have to perform any sexual favors this time around, only TSC makes me do that. But I checked the hose again last night, and it was warm so I think I'm alright for now. Just going to keep watching the over flow tank and temp for a while (and maybe stop being lazy and pop my damn hood occasionally).

I think that means I can post porn.

so its 1:30am and im sad, sold my truck today :crying:

why'd you sell it?

The last time I took a xanax I hit what I thought was a cardboard box but was actually a wooden box which put a nice big hole in my radiator. That was awhile ago. And when the front bumper grill became "custom" haha.

Why did you sell your truck? Didn't you just get all sorts of goodies for it? So I guess you drive a neon now right?

I think that means I can post porn.
I dare you to.
