Seriously OT: The Real 3rd Thready...

That's insane. Sounds like a good choice. I think they look pretty good.

Only real problem they have is a rattling of the back hatch... I haven't seen any TSB's about how to fix it for good, and I don't think there will be any at this point.

But they come with everything else (including ABS, power windows, sun roof) standard for that price.

I will never purchase another vehicle with a sunroof.

haha... sorry dude.... standard equipment.

Hyundi's and Kia's arnt real cars. They are like ... Ok I'm out of good analogies and my hands hurt. Bye.

The TC's are pretty damn nice for how cheap they are and the aftermarket should be pretty bitchin. I think it makes an awsome replacement for the newer celica.

Hyundai and kia=slow pos

i like what sport compact car said that they were made in russia with parts from korea, not as bad as ford and gm parts from canada and mexico assembled in the us.

TSC would you be will to sell one of those? If so. how shipped to T3E 6T3

Sure- Let me check on prices (think wood has gone up sence the hurricane..) I'll shoot you a PM.


Bastard canadians with there fancy cuban cigars :(

Doesnt it give you a nice fuzzy feeling inside when you see someone you went to school with on COPS?

TSC, I think that is the best sig I've seen in a while... and heh I'm in Miami, If I wanted a cuban I could find them.

^^ cool, the rims are gay tho

Damn seats are in the fucking back its a wonder they never wrecked tha damn car. Nice though.

I assume it's just to show off the interior of the car in 1 pic, because there's no way someone could drive it like that (taking a turn would be insane).

But honestly, that's not that bad of a price. With all the importing fees, and fees to get it legal for US road use.

That is a pretty good price for a RHD car that they claim is authentic. Never thought of that though it is a good way to get a pick of all the seats at the same time. Then again i see some cars done here usually either really shity beaters or a car with 24's blinged out to hell and there seats are just like that. Down here they can give you a ticket and 2 points for that now.

i dont get it...why did they take a pic of the car off the road in the high grass...lol and the one where the back wheel is off the ground...i got stuck like that one time at a CVS...but with the front wheel...lol times when you wish for an lsd...

I got stuck three times last night trying to get up to this girl house.

I'd rather drive a Hyundai or Kia than my crx... Hondas are overrated.

:eek7: what is this blasphemy. Did something really bad happen with your car I missed?

I've owned a hyundai Scoupe turbo and it was then biggest money pit ever..and my moms 2002 kia sephia...don't get me started. Not saying they all suck cause that obviously isnt true- but in my lifetime hondas have been pretty good to me.

The reason why those cars you mentioned suck is obvious and probably why they don't make them anymore. I mean current day Kia and/or Hyundai. Yesterday, I saw a new Hyundai Elantra GT take off from the light and it was not slow... granted, it wasn't an LS1 f-body but so what?

My car just pisses me off. It's 3/4 primer gray so it looks a little better but the whole rocker on the driver side rusted off from fender to fender. I can't even remount the side skirt. I don't know how the hell I'm going to fix the rear quarter panel. That's why I haven't primered it yet. Honestly, if somebody wants it, make an offer...

what state do u live in again turtle?

and my g/fs grandma has a elentra gt 5 speed and you're right they are not slugs..pretty nice interior to

turtle is just going through the phases every honda owner goes through

what state do u live in again turtle?

South Carolina...

blah..to far from me.

Finally changed my avatar, for the first time in like.... forever... so new signature, and new avatar.... and made ANOTHER 'A' on the test we had in class last week.
I'm hoping to qualify for another Toyota scholarship, which will mean even more money for school and even more free tools! :D

shit that'd be nice... I'm so temped to go back to school for automotive, but shit, I'm already in debt 35k for culinary school.

shut-up and go make me a turkey samich

:lol:

Culinary school? Iron Chef Sakai says you're no match for him! (I'm probably the only one here that watches Iron Chef on the food network)

But for real though.... going to school to be a technician is something I've wanted to do for a long time... and to have my boss talking about me being the lead toyota technician when I finish (making $30per hour) is always something nice to look forward to. :D

I'll give you $300 for that green rusted dead trap.

Oh yeah, I forgot to tell yall that I'm

I got both of these things via email today, and found both of them amusing.... laugh if you want... or don't... I think they're funny.

*Things I have learned from watching the news about Hurricane Katrina on
T V: *

*1. The hurricane only hit black family's property. ** *

*2. New Orleans was devastated and no other city was affected by
the hurricane. *

**

*3. Mississippi is reported to have a tree blown down. ** *

*4. New Orleans has no white people. *

**

*5. The hurricane blew a limb off a tree in the yard of an Alabama
resident. ** *

*6. When you are hungry after a hurricane steal a big screen TV. *

**

*7. The hurricane did 23 billion dollars in improvements to New
Orleans: now the city is welfare, looters and gang free and they are in
your city. ** *

*8. White folks don't make good news stories. *

**

*9. Don't give thanks to the thousands that came to help rescue you,
instead bitch because the government hasn't given you a debit card yet. ** *

*10. Only black family members got separated in the hurricane rescue
efforts. *

**

*11. Ignore warnings to evacuate and the white folks will come get you
and give you money for being stupid. ** *

*12. Oh, and it is all George Bush's fault.*

THEY DANCED WITH WHO BRUNG THEM*
During the past week I read story after story about how so many of New
Orleans' middle and upper income residents were able to flee the city as
Katrina approached, but the poor were left to fend for themselves. The
difference here wasn't money. The difference here was attitude. It was
the self-sufficient vs. the dependent. The evil rich and middle-income
residents fled New Orleans because they are used to accepting the
responsibility for their own welfare and safety. The poor stayed behind
because they're mired in the sludge of generation after generation of
dependency on government. The accomplished class knows that they bear
the responsibility for meeting their own needs and providing for their
safety. The poor by-and-large bear no such responsibility. To them, it's
the government's job. Instead of taking responsibility for their own
safety --- they just sat there, waiting for government to come and save
them. The achievement-oriented residents of New Orleans were spared the
horrors of the violence and filth that followed the flooding because
they kept doing what they had been doing all along -- accepting
responsibility. The poor were subjected to the violence and filth
because they also kept doing what they had been doing all along --
depending on government.

Hurricane Katrina illustrated the truth behind the contention that
poverty is a behavioral disorder.
*JUST THE SAME ... IT'S ALL BUSH'S FAULT*
Now here's something you probably didn't know about Louisiana and
Hurricane Katrina. At the very time Katrina was bearing down on New
Orleans, there were several top-level officials in the very department
of Louisiana government that prepares for emergencies such as Katrina
sitting around and waiting for their trial. Trial, you say? Trial for
what? Let's try corruption and throw in a bit of fraud.

It seems that these Louisiana officials either misspent or misplaced or
... worse ... about 60 million federal taxpayer bucks. Here are some
details ...

In March of this year -- that's about five months before Katrina -- FEMA
was asking for the return of $30.4 million that the federal government
had sent to Louisiana for emergency planning and preparedness. Most of
this money was sent to some state office called the Louisiana Office of
Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness. Wait .. it gets worse.
_According to the Los Angeles Times_
<javascript:ol('http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/la-na-money17sep17,1,5736422.story?coll%3dla-home-headlines');>,
much of that money was sent to Louisiana under some federal program
called the Hazard Mitigation Grant program. That is a program that is,
in part, supposed to help states improve flood control facilities.
Flood? Did someone say flood?

Hazard mitigation would have been a great idea in New Orleans, don't you
think? Especially that "improve flood control facilities" part, but
nobody seems to know where the money went! OK ... let's follow the trail
of $15.4 million dollars that was spent by the Louisiana Office of
Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness. The $15.4 million was part
of a $40.5 million grant of your money that was sent to Louisiana for
the Hazard Mitigation Program. You know ... flood control and all that.
Oops! Hold on a second here. My bad. It seems we can't follow that $15.4
million.. You see, the Louisiana officials say that they awarded that
money to subcontractors for 19 major hazard mitigation programs, but
they just can't seem to find any receipts to account of 97% of the
funds. Ninety-seven percent of $15.4 million, my friends. No receipts.
That's $14.94 million .. gone, and nobody can trace it.

Do any of you think that something good might have been done with some
of this money? Lives saved? Flooding prevented? If you're thinking that,
remember ... we're talking Hurricane Katrina here, and we all know that
every bad thing that happened in Hurricane Katrina was --- all together
now ---- Bush's Fault!

Perhaps if these Louisiana officials ever actually go to trial now they
will be able to use the "Blame Bush" defense.
*AND THAT'S NOT ALL .....*
Let's see ... what else have we learned in the past week about the
response to Katrina.
Doctors from across the United States poured into Louisiana to offer
their services in shelters and hospitals treating Katrina's victims.
They could do nothing. They just sat. You see, _they weren't licensed to
practice medicine in Louisiana_
<javascript:ol('http://edition.cnn.com/2005/US/09/15/katrina.response/');>.
It took the amazing Governor of Louisiana, Kathleen Blanco, five days to
sign a waiver to allow these doctors to practice medicine in Louisiana.
Five days, while people were suffering and dying. Don't blame Blanco,
though. It was clearly Bush's fault.

<<...OLE_Obj...>>
New Orleans' Mayor Ray Nagin


On the Saturday before the hurricane New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin
received _a call from Amtrak_
<javascript:ol('http://www.newsmax.com/archives/ic/2005/9/12/103905.shtml');>.
There was a passenger train sitting in the New Orleans station with 900
empty seats. Did the Mayor want to put some evacuees in those seats? No
thanks. The train left nearly empty. You cannot blame Mayor Nagin for
this decision, that clearly would be racist. It just has to be Bush's fault.

In 1997 the U.S. Congress appropriated $500,000 of your money -- not
federal money, taxpayer's money -- to the State of Louisiana. The money
was set aside to create a "comprehensive analysis and plan of all
evacuation alternatives for New Orleans." Now correct me if I'm wrong,
but that's the big deal here, isn't it? New Orleans didn't get
evacuated, right? Well, for two years nothing happened. Then the
Congress demanded of Louisiana a plan for evacuation in the event of a
category 3 story, a levee break, a flood or some other natural disaster.
The $500,000 of your money got to Louisiana .. but then what? It was
_spent by the Greater New Orleans Expressway Commission_
<javascript:ol('http://www.columbiatribune.com/2005/Sep/20050918News008.asp');>,
not on an evacuation plan, but things that needed to be done to the Lake
Pontchartrain causeway over the next fifteen years or so. What does the
incredible Louisiana Office of Homeland Security and Emergency
Preparedness have to say about the funds and the causeway study? The
spokesman says that they can't find any information. Actually, we
shouldn't be holding the Louisiana emergency preparedness folks or the
state responsible for this ... not when we all know it was Bush's fault.

Speaking of flood control. You did know, didn't you, that in 1996 the
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers was going to raise and strengthen the very
levees that failed in New Orleans. They were going to, but they didn't.
And why not? _Because of a lawsuit_
<javascript:ol('http://www.humaneventsonline.com/article.php?id%3d9104');>,
that's why. The plaintiff in the lawsuit didn't want the work done until
extensive and expensive environmental impact statements were prepared by
the Corps of Engineers and approved by the EPA. And who filed that
lawsuit? Why .. it was the Sierra Club. The very same Sierra Club, by
the way, that listened with rapt attention in San Francisco on September
9th while Al Gore told them that the leaders of this country ought to be
held accountable for the flooding in New Orleans. Now, some of us might
be so twisted as to think that the very Sierra Club that was so
enthralled by Gore's rantings should bear some of the blame here ... but
that's only because we just don't realize that it was all Bush's fault.
Oh .. and by the way. Why haven't we heard more about this Sierra Club
lawsuit in the mainstream media? Remember the template.

Mayor Ray Nagin is inviting residents of some areas of New Orleans to
_come back to their homes and businesses_
<javascript:ol('http://www.klfy.com/Global/story.asp?S%3d3866196');> and
begin the cleanup process. There's another possible hurricane bearing
down on the Florida Keys --- a tropical storm that could become a
hurricane and could head toward New Orleans. Now it's possible that if
over 100,000 residents return to New Orleans and are further victimized
by another hurricane and another flood .. will it be Mayor Ray Nagin's
fault? Of course not, you idiot! It will be George Bush's fault! Haven't
you been paying attention?

*SO, BOORTZ. DIDN'T BUSH DO ANYTHING WRONG?*
You bet he did. He appointed a political hack to the job of _FEMA
director_
<javascript:ol('http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,1103003,00.html');>.
A lawyer-turned-horse show official. Then he appointed another lawyer to
run the Department of Homeland Security. These people can be responsible
for the safety of a huge number of American people, and the job should
not be given as a gift to campaign workers. Further, it can certainly be
argued that Bush should have moved quicker when it became clear that
Louisiana Governor Kathleen Blanco was in way, way over her head. He
didn't. Bad move.

I strongly disagree with the first paragraph in that second thing. If you don't have $, how are you supposed to get out of there...walk? In an emergency situation, the government should be responsible for getting everyone out of there. I still don't feel bad for the people who had the $ or means to get out of there but didn't, screw them they're dumb. But the rest is absolutely true, the only bad thing Bush did was hire some jackass to head FEMA. Yet still, did he really need ANOTHER vacation? Or to stay on vacation when he knew a hurricane was going to hit? Bad judgement call on his part (yet not surprising).

I believe the point the author was trying to make is that welfare cases aren't self sufficient enough... which is why they're on welfare to begin with usually...
I still work in a grocery store and have for the past 5 years, and I see poeple day in and day out who's groceries I'm paying for... and I've actually watched them explain to their children what they can and can't buy with food stamps... and I've also seen people teaching their children how to cheat the system and stay on welfare longer... and elder mothers teaching their daughters that if they pop out more kids, the government will give them more money....... sickens me to see it, but that is what happens.
I'm glad I'll JUST be working on cars pretty soon. (one more year)

But yes... if I didn't have a dollar to my name, and I knew a big ass hurricane was coming, I'd be walking my ass out of town...... and people DID have cars to go places... all those people at the super dome didn't walk their, the majority of them DROVE there before the storm hit, to be evacuated by the hundreds of abandond school busses that are now underwater (which was the mayors fault also) because that's what government told them to do :P

I have been asked to reframe from talking about new orleans and hurricanes by people with big "powers".

Logo I'm working on for a side project, any suggestions? I'm pretty happy with it at this point.

I feel bad... I just made a 95 on my final exam.... and everyone else in my class, sept this one girl, made a 100..... big deal? well the problem is, everyone else cheated because they had the answer key to the test... I didn't need the answer key, because I actually study and do my work, but there were only 8 people passing in my class, and now 18 are going to pass.

I can't help but feel bad that I haven't said anything to anyone at school about it.... is it wrong for me to not say anything and just let everyone else go on cheating?

well...put it to you like this...you're going to school to become an auto tech...now would you want any of them to work on your car knowing they cheated their way thru? :sly: screw em' and rat out...their probably the type that gonna cheat people and do insurance fraud

Or let them go and when they get jobs and their boss sees they don't know a damn thing... you're fired! But really it's up to you. No matter what you decide, you shouldn't feel bad. Actually you should feel good since you chose to do the right thing and still did a damn good job.
