Well getting my monies ready for GT Live…looks like we’ll be camping again at VIR…this time in a tent instead of the LC (mabey)…tried to get a room at The Lodge, but if was full and I don’t think I could afford $175/night…but I did rent a golf cart for all 3 days…I think it’s $250 well spent…but the advanced 3 day pass is $40 and the camping pass for all 3 days is $35…so from now until October 4th I need to save up about $500

So...my right front brake line blew out on the highway today...thank god for construction or the neighboring lane would not have been empty for me to dodge the fucktard that decided to go from 80 to 40... gotta love that hard pedal..then "pop" feeling as the pedal goes through the floor.

waited till after.. bad part is I was on my way to Tampa to take a chemistry placement exam for college..and I had a job interview up there. I literally only made it one exit after getting on the road..about 2 1/2 miles. I had to drive home with nothing but the ebrake and the damn clutch... and traffic was flying off the offramp..try stopping 300 yrds at 70..

So anyway, im headed to the pick-n-steal soon to get a quick replacement brake line...nobody has it in stock and I'm moving to college like tomorrow so I dont have time to order it. When I get a little more money though, those bastards are going stainless braided! I'm paranoid now.

Everyone goes thru a stint of bad luck with these cars…like the 4-dr I bought that ran out of gas on me a couple times…1st time was 5:10pm on a Friday on I40 in the fast lane in the middle of stop and go traffic while crossing a bridge that had no breakdown lane…the gas needle was off like ¼ tank :lol: my 88 accord’s transmission slipped so when I went thru the tunnel to go to work I had to be driving full speed or it’d take me some time driving slow up the incline so the tranny wouldn’t slip…and I became THAT person who was holding up traffic when I didn’t get enough speed

CivicSpoon

08-23-2007, 03:21 PM

You dont know my kind of luck man... Im so unlucky Ill probably blow out a steel hardline next!

You are talking to the guy who had a crx with a TORN crossmember...yeah, the LCA mount was ripped off and hanging by a thread.
My friend blew out his stainless steel brake line this past spring. But his went because his tires are too big and he didn't tie the passenger side up right, so every time he took a left turn it rubbed against the line.

FrodoGT

08-23-2007, 06:15 PM

Turns out my right line wasnt mounted in the right place and at some point in its life it got rubbed by the wheel..thats why it blew. Its replaced now and i checked the rest of em.

hondacivic99sivtec

08-23-2007, 07:54 PM

so the guy i sold the crx to is getting kicked out of the navy today. and since he never paid me the remaining $200 for it then i am going to either get my money or get the car back. if i get the car back then i will probably part it out. but i have to go make sure he doesn't try to drive off with out paying me. so i'm gonna go take all the air out of the tires.

Well, based on the track record of him trying to unload this vehicle... how many times has it been stolen/messed with?... I'd say he's lucky he got anything. Let it be a lesson learned to never accept partial payment from someone when selling something like say... a car.

I've lost money and friends because of their coniving dealings. Do I miss the money? Sure. Do I miss those people? Not really.

I went out in my backyard earlier today with my parents, and my dad noticed something very unusual. On the chain link fence that separates our yard from out neighbors, had the metal "bands" that hold the fence to the poles cut. It's the bent up metal rods that are bent onto the chain link, and they go over the top of the horizontal poles and clip onto the other side. Most of them were cut completely in half, and the other ones were partially cut through. I live in the suburbs and the neighbor's and our yards are completely fenced in. So it's not like they are just open areas where random people could come in. We're trying to figure out who did it, and more importantly WHY the hell someone would cut them like that. The kid who lives next door is kind of a hermit (worse than me), and we didn't even know he still lived there until about a month ago. So it's possible he did it, and is just a freaking weirdo; but we're completely lost here. I though that maybe they were just really soft metal and maybe one of the 1000 squirrels around here chewed through them as it was running along the fence, but I couldn't even pull apart the ones that were mostly sawed through. Frigging weird ass people.

so i went to the restriction barracks. and talked to the kid. he said he would be able to get the money tomorrow. i also talked to security and they said that since it was a legal matter that they would let him go to the atm to get me my money so, i'm getting my $200. whoopie.

and even though i was never this guys friend and that car is probably cursed. if he doesn't register it then and i get it back some how then i will just part it out. argh i'm fucj=king drunk. and i just want my money. i got bills to pay. and tomorrow when i get my money i will pay the bills. lol damn did i just ramble on?

Somebody used to mess with my car in the parking lot at my old house. I really wanted to set up a camera to watch it overnight but the college budget didn't permit a $30 surveillance camera.

I'm still in no-cable land, who fought?
Randy Couture (c) vs Gaberial Gonzaga for the heavyweight title, & Georges St-Pierre vs Josh Koscheck (a ultimate fighter reality show guy). I just watched the Couture vs Gonzaga fight online, it was a pretty good fight. If the accident didn't happen, I'm sure it would have been a lot better. But the next pay-per-view in 2 weeks will be a hell of a lot better; and it will be free on spiketv. That's going to be Quinton Jackson (UFC light heavyweight champion) vs Dan Henderson (Pride Fighting light heavyweight championship); with both titles on the line.

CivicSpoon

damn, the one I watched was taken down too. Well, the accident I was talking about was in the 1st round when Couture took Gonzaga down, he slammed his head into Gonzaga's nose as they hit the ground and broke it. So the rest of the fight, Gonzaga couldn't breath out of his nose, and at one point in the 2nd round he asked the ref to pause the fight because he couldn't see. He should have just given up the fight right then and there, and saved himself some damage. Though he did punch and kick Couture a few times pretty hard after that, so he did still have a chance.

so I'm watching the news earlier and our 'trusty' ABC weatherman Jerry Taft says there will be a lunar eclipse visible starting at 3:15am until 7:something am. I figure I'll stay up to see it since I really have 0 to do tomorrow. Well here I am 7 popsicles (which were delicious) and a million youtube videos later and the moon is as bright as its ever been.

Now I understand why this could happen
