I wasn't replying to one of your posts, I was just going to take on stevenl's Civic 2.0 vs Fortuner 3.0 around the twists challenge (though I would ask to replace the Fortuner 3.0 with a Pajero Sport 2.5, heh) ;)

The big lumbering PPV's feel slower, and can feel a little unnerving with body roll, lack of steering feel and soft ride/sluggish rebound rates, but their actual limits are pretty high in the right hands :D

That's a loaded question. Just ask what you really want to know: "is anyone here silly enough to have bought a new Civic over a Focus 2.0?"

No need to reply is there ,you are a Newbie Know It All. Very Rude as well.Fortuna lately the Old Hands are still here. So i joined, but have read it for years. MRO seems to have gone, but the Old Guard remains i note Dear Old Trans who would put 18 Inchers on a Lotus Trolley Soon and Cart who bite everyone and Kwakers who couldn't give a Turbo. The Guy with a Daewoo Cruze has gone as well. Lets get away from the Ford Truck Saga, and have a bit of Repartee without a Mr Knowitall putting folks down.w00t.gif

So rich coming from someone with 11 posts, LOL biggrin.png

Is it "MRO" or "OEM" -- this is the Auto forum, you know. I saw a post by Stingray (I assume the same one) earlier today; something about a white Cadillac masquerading as an "Asian car". Actually, I thought that MRO was keeping KBB company selling it somewhere in Phuket. Hopefully, we won't read about them finding his spare parts in a trash bin filled with motor oil locked in the garage.

What is the point of this thread anyway??? And who/what is "WS"?

WS is a former member here that suddenly diapered. Some found him a pain in the arse and some found him extremely funny. I am in the last group.

I read "enough" of that which is worth reading, but undoubtedly not "enough" of the rest to have any clue what the garbled posts in this thread are intended to mean -- no great loss I expect. coffee1.gif

Thanks. That helps put some perspective on it. I won't worry about linking "AoP" with his former self (no doubt "WS").

Few more posts in, and I don't think anyone who remembers has any doubt now ;)

Not trying to confuse members, just the trigger happy mods (no, not you mod reading this, the other mod *wink* )

Yes and i think an exclusive thread between AoP & RR300 would be funtongue.png .

Spotted a yellow plate lambo this morning on the way to work. Thought I'd give him a run for his money in my civic. Unfortunately the prick had more than two gears...disappearing into the distance all I could hear was that sweet rasp from the exhaust. My 9 y.o almost wet himself when he saw it lol

I am responding, "To starting a New Topic:"

Is anyone returning to Europe for a short stay then return? I am looking for an Amp Meter. Preferably "Lucas 36084 (+/- 8 amp) unit" Even if someone has a used one, I would be interested!

Either fits dash in Auto or for use in Motor cycle. The Lucas ID # will give sellers idea of what I am looking for. But it must work on 12VDC! Picture is showing mounted in M/C headlight.

Email me if you have info on subject or can help me secure one, Thanks!

1968 Hemi 426ci Dodge Charger or Challenger. smile.png

I have 2 - 1971 Pontiac Trans Ams.

Plus a 1985 Trans Am - 366ci small block, Dual Cam, with dual Computer Chips. 6 Speed, (At Traffic light: Flip switch on Dash and like Superman... go for Mild Mannered to Snortin.. Stompin... Ass Kickin... Fire Breathin.... Take your Breath away, "Ride of your Life" Turns 1/4 mile in 6.8 seconds. 3:77 gears 17" street tires as Corvette, front and rear.) Flipping switch changes all mapping of engine and timing... A real Cuda,Superbird, Roadrunner Hemi Buster!

One 1971 is 455HO Full Ram Air V, Auto on the Column (Potiac says they never built One...) Guess what I ordered! I Have! - White Blue Stripe 3:72 rear end

2nd one is a 303 Ram Air V Small Block for Racing. Factory Built @ Norwood Ohio Plant, Same Color Scheme as 1st one except this one is Very Radical. Wasn't really Street Legal until we put Exhaust on it. Came with Headers and rightside Exhaust Dump 6" Simular to Corvette Side pipe.Right side only. Very Radical Engine, Roller Tappet Solid lifter, 5 Speed 4:33 rear end.

Both cars are Original. All Factory Parts. Mr. Deloreon, Thank you again for producing before GM Dumped the Famed Pontiac Stable before they surpassed Chevrolet. I also got to see the Fiero V8 350TPI mid Engine, AWD. GM thinks it got Squashed...clap2.gif I Know where it is! Who owns it!

Am I supposed to be the WS in this topic? First off how did I get brought into it? Second if it is directed towards me I've never left just been busy and third, though I'm quite learned and accurate in my advice I never claim to be a knowitall though being well versed might make those who aren't feel a bit inadequate and wanting, I can see that. I'm also well appreciated by far more then not and those who don't are really not of any consequence..

Thanx Cat but I've never left if it's me being referred to.. Just been really busy and no real topics that entice me enough to stay up late and respond most are just mundane and general..

Pleased you've got that sorted then laugh.png

I did actually mention to Ace that he seemed very similar to WS a long time ago. Peas in a pod and all that stuff.

It's funny reading AoP's comments about MRO too. I'm darned if I know where MRO disappeared too. thumbsup.gif
