my G's been running stillen bars the last 8yrs and no issue. :tup: i recommend using LOTS of white lithium grease inside and out of the bushings to prevent noise. :)

Which brands are you looking at for now? I've been doing some info search on Stillen, Whiteline and Hotchkis.

And it seems the Stillen one is the most recommended for street use, which is suitable for me. Most people suggest the Whiteline might be too stiff for street use..

Regarding the sliding concern, I bet most of them have the collars to stop the bar from sliding, here's a pic for the stillen one, I can see the collars on both front and rear. The price is actually very good too.

He's a nice dude around here... he always speak out his opinions, and you know... opinions, it's sometimes really a personal preference matter.

But I can say he's a nice guy no cockiness.. :tup:

Mr.kenchan, time to see more posts...!! :tup:

that very last part 'dont be mad'... i think he could've left that out. but that's just me. :)

i will decide when im mad and when im not mad, kinda. :p

hope you enjoy the cake with icecream. :yum:

Yeah that is his character. It's just a really long story on how we got here but I think it's time to go back to counseling.

I am sorry, but that is pretty lame. Life is too short to not appreciate those whom we love and, in my case, love us back for reasons unknown. Maybe there are some in the world who do not recognize milestones such as birthdays and anniversaries as being events to celebrate, to take a minute to exrpess how much the other person means to them. Who knows the reasons for those who seem to take things and people for granted? I don't.

Make him pay a price. You know how to do that, right? You have more power than you amy realize and you should put it to use. Get cold and distant for a little while.

mmm... time for a visit... and regarding the neighborhood... no worry, I can speak English with strong Cantonese accent.... to keep myself safe... :icon18:

Pint honey~~ :p

He is a bit slow, kinda realized it after the whole thing is done.. :shakes head:

But can't write off his effort of trying to make it up... ;)

Enjoy the dessert... smile.. :)

:iagree: on this one, it really depends on the shop.

I can understand some shops afraid of those cheapy-spacers...

But I bet there's many other will do it no problem.

mr.alcheng - ive not looked into deeply at the j-brand ones but i was thinking cusco.. but those are 1mm thicker than the whitelines and if you're saying that whitelines are too stiff for street use, i might be better off with the stillens.

do you know the diameter of the stillens? :)

i will see what i can do about the iggydoor. i put so many locks on it i think i forgot which key goes to which lock. :icon17: ;)

ms.pint- if he was like that from the getgo then some folks are like that...i mean some folks just suck at showing affection.

but if he changed over the years then counseling sounds like a good step. after a long time together sometimes we get too comfy with each other and loose the sense of appreciation towards one another.

i will say that im not a big fondue fan. imho, fondue is for women to take forever to eat at the table with their girlfriends gossiping over this and that and blah blah blah. :yawn: but my kids and i endured the 3+hrs at the fondue place when my wife requested we go there for her bday. :tup:
