Hello,
So since I haven't been driving the Z since Halloween I have been having some severe cravings to drive the Z.
So what is the First thing you are gonna do once you pull the car out of the garage?

I for one can't wait to just roll up to all the punks that were drivin like A$$holes in the winter thinking they are the $hit, There were so many that really pi$$ed me off and were total jerks to traffic.
So I guess just let all the civic owners and Spec VR, J-body owners know who is top dog, Just cause your sentra or j-bod is yellow or has stickers don't mean she is fast. :guns:

HAHA

I bought my car then parked it for the winter, so it will be my first time driving it.

But for me, im gonna go to my school and show those stupid fucks that dont beleive (and make fun of...) me that I actually own a my car!!! And then splash a puddle in their faces when I drive by them when they're waiting at the bus stop, With a nice big pointy middle finger pointing out the sunroof. hahaha

No, im just gonna drive it around for like...... 10 hours a day.

The last 2 years It was difficult to see it parked,but this year was easier. The Focus is a fun winter car with the right tires on it.

I'll probably get the oil changed ,drive it around the city for a few days, then go for a cruise out to the Mountains..:burnout:

haha...the thought of taking the car out for a few ripps around the country side has been nagging me to death lately too. If it's warm this weekend i think i'm gonna bust a quick engine swap and do just that!

Me? Well, I am going to perform a ritual hard learned from bad previous experiences - I am going to check for critters.

- have had mice destroy the headliner of an immaculate 1966 Dodge Charger;
- have had bees build a nest in the glove compartment of my 1955 Chevrolet 2 door sedan delivery wagon, and sting the shit out of my Dad.
- I had a gross ugly spider fall down my collar and bite me on the back of my neck, when I went to inspect my 1974 Alfa Romeo GTV one spring.
- I have had birds get into a 1964 Falcon Sprint convertible. They shit everywhere! It was truly disgusting.
- I had some kind of unidentified rodent crawl into the exhaust pipe of my 1981 Suzuki Katana motorcycle, and blow out the pipe with a horriffic blast, and splat against my neigbors house when I used "started fluid" to try to get the obstinate zook to fire up.
- I had Racoons move into my boat, and Opossums breed in the grasscatcher of my John Deere mower-tractor. That was a grotesque discovery.

- I have a friend in Arizona find a rattlesnake in his 1972 Mercedes Benz 280CE.
- I have an acquaintance in Winnipeg who found a dead cat cooked to the top of the muffler of her 1965 T-Bird, that had obviously crawled up onto the muffler in the fall, and die there, only to be cooked onto the muffler in the spring. The dead cat carbonized onto the muffler with almost a barnacle-like adhesion, and had to be taken off with an air chisel.

Why the angry guy attitude? because I almost got ran off the road by a friggin spec vr, and one nite when it was snowing a friggin civic and j-bod were racing right in town :banghead:
Anyway I'm not biased against all owners of these cars but for damn sure I will put the ones in their place that are driving like complete morons thinking that the streets are a F1 circuit.
And no that doesn't mean I'm going to street race them just merely roll past them and let them know there are bigger fish out there.

boo f#$@ing hoo

:whocares:

so how are you going to "but them in their place"? drive them off the road? race them and let them see you destroy your transmission?

hope you misjudge the power of your car and hit a pole.

Just watch him roll up against an 89 Cvic h/b with a "cold" (the "achoo" from the wastegate always get the attention)

B16A swap with a T04E-46 at 12 psi..... 260hp in 2300 lbs of rice, and you'd never know it till he puts *you* in your place.

Grow up. Stop whining like a little kid.

Things to do:
1. oil change
2. clean, wax, etc.
3. enjoy :D

When do people usually start to take their cars out? I know you wait until the snow melts, and the city cleans out roads of rocks and such. But usually when does this happen? The thing I don't like about Calgary is that the roads get cleaned in "spring" and then snow comes unexpectedly in the middle of may. Haha but I'm a calgarian and I love it at the same time. :thumbsup:

Ya nothing is more lethal than a '89 civic hatchback w/ a motor swap :rolleyes: I have no idea why someone would waste all the time of doing that to a 89 civic when they could have bought a dsm and had a 4cyl that was actually meant to be turbocharged.
Oh and Tak, I take it you have a '89 civic H/B?

The following day after the new setup is completed, the car will go directly to the dyno to tune it for absolute max power. How much boost will we be running????? ALL OF IT.:eek: This will be followed by a drive home which will consist of lighting up and smoking the tires at 100km/h+ in second gear.:bigpimp:
