I broke my tranny a month after owning my car-that was when it was stock.
If your going to mod your car and go to the track expect parts to break-if not don't bother backing your car out of the driveway.
When parts break on my car, I fix it and put I back together again-since I do all my own work I don't have to depend on anyone either.

Everyone breaks, slow cars, fast cars, stock cars-it's just part of the game.

Stop hating, start enjoying your car and don't worry about what may happen. Life is to short.

I love how these threads start off as tech and end up with this. Clowns take a hike! Please note...not all people from Canada are retarded...seems like TO may have a higher percentage than other cities.

Good deal, I'm almost finished my car-just a few coolant hoses short. I can't wait to hear this YSi.

And I swear, I'm done after this, no more tweaking, just driving! I'm gonna have to make a trip up to see you guys.

NO MORE OFF TOPIC PIZZING CONTESTS............if your post is gone it would be wise to follow the rules. This is the only warning....not a threat, a promise. PM/E-mail if you still don't understand.
