WHO WANTS TO MAKE $50.00 WITHIN 5 MINUTES???

i still have some parts left off my talon (brand new) some fancy kevlar timing belt, oem o2 sensor (expensive non crappy tire china crap), i think fuel filter, never used… and i think some other stuff lol i should post on there and make some bucks

well im glad you got your car good to go :slight_smile:

so you eventually got what you were looking for, are you actually surprised most people were hesitant to help you?
and what does the whole toddler thing and you driving 240s since forever have to do with anything anyway, other than a clear attempt to brag about your 2004 join date

lol my experience and suggestion leads me to believe you don’t need to discuss this anymore and the problem is resolved. I’m kinda bored and on son tonight, going to sleep. Have a good evening haha…

One more Ahmed, I’m a considerate person and I don’t like being rude therefore I will answer MP/B240

Yeah I was surprised that people were hesitant to help because that’s not the SON that once was, there use to be a time when we would go out of our way to help one another just for the sake that we were in the same car club and we had the same common interests that created a family bond like friendship among us… And no I am not bragging about my join date simply all I’m saying is that there are a few of us here (very few) who are in their mid 30’s and up and some people have had their 240s for a long time. I bought mine in 1999 (12 years ago) and if you consider that there are many members here who are like 16-17 years old you will come to my conclusion that some of us were driving 240’s when others were still toddlers… Oh and by the way my join date was not 2004… 2004 was when they set up the new forum and for some reason they gave me a new join date and listed me as a new member. My official join date was in 2002 !

shit u make me feel old im turning 27 in jan haha… daaaymn… i joined son and got my 240 when i was like 21 heh

you’re forgetting the fact that 12 years ago, getting a fake safety/e-test was MUCH different than it is today. i don’t doubt that people were much more willing to help you back in 1999, but that’s because it was 1999. you try and walk into a shop today for a fake (even if you know the owner) and i bet most will tell you about how they would have done it if it was like 10 years ago and give you the whole talk about how the MTO is cracking down, etc. this is why i asked if you were actually surprised, because i assumed you’re aware of this whole situation.

but cant we just get a hot rod test or something like that? I never understood this hotrod ordeal…

Nobody wants to help you because its illegal and in the last few years technology has changed… if i did that etest for you i would get a $50,000 charge to myself and the shop would loose the liscence for up to 90 days… does that really sound worth it for a lousy $50.00, people are alot smarter than you think and are covering their own ass’s. some people are just thinking about themselves and dont give 2 shits about the others.

just my opinion…

Everybody chill. John is a cool dude. He steered me in the right direction when I started. If you don’t wanna help him, nuff said. I would if my car would pass an e-test heh.

Hey man how you doing? Nice to see an old face again! too bad there are only a few of us left :frowning:

When I worked at Prestige I use to help out people all the time, I sold a few 240’s to a few guys here, I would hook people up with parts at cost all the time and whatever connections I had I would use them for people here. …I miss putting meets together, my meets kicked ass, they were not for pussies. Who remembers the cannonball run down the 427 and the cops at Area240 LOL! Good times, Good times!

Anyway back on subject. Yes I am aware of the fines shops can get if they don’t follow the rules and regulations and I am aware that many mechanics are not willing to help out the way they use to years ago when they could get away with things here and there. But I am also aware that there are creative people out there who are not robots and they think outside the box and they make things happen! For every problem there is a solution, you don’t necessarily have to solve the problem… You can find ways around it :wink:
No offence to the youth in here but this system has your generation all brain washed like zombies, they don’t want you guys to think on your own, they want you all to just react to what they make you believe… This is why they hate us old schoolers, we outsmarted and outwitted their systems because we were taught to think differently! Knowledge over education and street smart above all… Okay I’m gonna shut the fuck up right now because I am probably starting to sound like some of your parents and I am really starting to feel old LOL!

Take care guys!

LOL@ last paragraph, i was saying that and got bashed alot… it’s really weird and akward how easily manipulated people are by the fear mongering of media and government… I mean on just about every issue…

This one girl at my office thought I was ‘scary’ for driving 120km/hr (LMAO), on the highway… and she knew I would race on track and have driven autobahn at 200+… the irrational arguments and fear instilled in people now a days blows my mind… and thinking differently right away makes you a criminal. You make me feel old too lol…

The double dutch rudder.

It’s not gay because youre only touching your own junk.

" it’s really weird and akward how easily manipulated people are by the fear mongering of media and government" … “thinking differently right away makes you a criminal”

^Truth.^ This is what the “education” and media are for. They instill insecurities and make fairly normal things outlandish and criminal. Good to see some people still use their brains and think for themselves.

So sad to see today’s youth so brainwashed… They are like a bunch of robots all trained to think the same and react the same… It reminds me of the movie Demolition man where people in the future were all brainwashed and taught by the government how to think, what to think and how to react.

Wait one more FTW

lol stallone was bad ass in that movie, then again i’m a stallone fan :smiley:

lol didn’t he mention in that movie arnold schwarzenegger is the president and taco bell is like a classy restaurent chain or something… some funny stuff in there. And all the people reacted like drones fearful of everything lol.

Times have definatley changed around here if I was up in the gta it would have been done within hours Glad you got it resolved

haha! Its creepy how movies point to the future, and slowly the future becomes present…
