    Way to start a new thread on it. Fix your brakes. Don't put others in danger with your laziness and stupidity.

    I talked to you on yahoo earlier, why in the world do you want to blow up a perfectly good car? if you are a mechanic it's an easy fix, these cars handle like a go cart with an overhauled suspension, for god's sakes change your oil, and it's a rare car too being right hand drive. this is a great group of guys on this site, they will help you a lot to fix it up, but coming on here and saying you are going to blow it up isn't going to gain you friends.

    I did cheap suspension maintenance: replace all 4 struts (destroyed) with cheapo Monroe struts (the blue ones, got them on special sale). That alone made the car predictable when driving; I can only guess what would be like driving it with half the upgrades some guys have done over here.
    If it ain't broke... I fix it!

    I agree and there is another newbie who joined about the same time he stopped posting, two posts and he has a fake zip code that doesn't match where he says he lives. I'm thinking this is the guy who was posting under three names before. not saying any names because he may be legit but may be the same person, ISP check on isle 5 please!!
