Car is fine just some grass sods to clean off underneath. My neck is good and my car is good. I just got a tow bill for someone to winch me out. I'll pay that any day of the week and twice on Sunday.
Good to hear that you are OK.

Here's one to heads-up driving!

Did the perpetrator bear any consequences?

Hopefully the perp will get their dose of carma someday. My wife and I had two close calls lately. One asshat drove around her on the left when she was making a left turn. She saw them coming in her mirror and they weren’t paying attention and couldn’t slow down. And some lady pulled out of a side street and I had to swerve to miss her. Maybe we do need self driving cars...

When I had my car at Specialty Z for my sc tune, I had them install all the sensors, relays and wiring for my two gauges. Here's a crappy picture of the finished cubby panel I fabricated.

Ok, right on. I have the SI trim head as well along with a Fast Intensions TDX Turbo cbe, but stock headers and cats on 91 oct. I have the smaller stillen pulley and plan on getting long tube headers when I get the A2A kit going so I'm curious to see how close I can get to 500hp..

So I was hoping to have my gears installed, but the shop said they can't get the gears to mesh. I have a suspicion that the guy I bought the diff from sold me an Auto diff and called it a manual.

Does anybody have a picture of an auto differential next to a manual?

I'll let you get away with that because you're older than me. Actually, only a year. Dammit!
