vince you really ought to consider a CNG dual fuel setup...... my instructor has an early 2000's powerstroke with a 40 gallon (cng) tank, and together with both he gets a total of 1400 miles on a tank and has a LOT more power since diesels are higher compression and cng runs best around 11.5:1 CR. He says going up hill and towing stuff he has to be careful or he can spin the rear wheels :)

might be worth it to check out this site. I know you have to replace the engine rather than just convert to get the credit. My instructor built his own and says it's already well paid for itself by now :)

lol nice.....

on that same note I bought a clutch for the mazda for $60 [thumb]

I think I'm gonna prime the car and have it painted with whatever the cheapest can be done... it'll still be better than doing it myself [hihi]

Why is it that no one knows what a MAFia is? I have gotten so many stupid questions about that thing it's ridiculous... [?|] the latest one is a guy who thinks it's a tuner, do they not read past the first 2 words? I'm really not sure how you can confuse a predator and a mafia

Anyway, rant over. You can always go to maco just do all your own prep work and I've seen some decent cheap pain jobs from there

looks like wheels will have to wait..
i had a guy on here interested in mine but as usual he flaked out and stopped responding to my emails.
why are people so scared to say, "i'm not interested anymore, thanks anyway."

i saw a sonic blu e mk2 ST today, i saw it coming down the road and i thought it was another tdi at first but then i noticed the flared arches and wing.....it was pretty epic (confirmed with st badge in back)

also for some reason 2 streets away from my house while i was walking to the store i saw a brand new Masseratti parked, it was incredible from far away it looked almost like a db9 but i couldn't believe it till i got close. I believe it was a masserati quattroporte

one day i grabbed lunch from down town, and when i was getting back on the freeway there was a Masserati in front of me.. he floored it onto the freeway!
needless to say, Vince is correct. they sound AMAZING!!
