    I need lots of help picking a laptop for college...i'm SOO lost on this one!

    The dell M1210 has been really good to me. I used it my senior year and double majored in computer science/engineering. I usually flip computers every 5-6 months, but I actually have had this one for about a year and a half - I just think it's the perfect size, power, etc for what I need. I...

    The MkIII Photo Dictionary! Lets do it

    Definitely not your fault. This was supposed to be a group effort. If you ever get a chance to send the stuff my way, I'll post up a sample of what the site will look like. Maybe people can get a little more enthused.

    The MkIII Photo Dictionary! Lets do it

    I have received nada. I can take some pictures of parts as they go back on my car, but probably won't - there aren't enough people helping out and I'm not going to waste my time doing it myself. All site navigation (save for engine bay image maps) and page templates are built - I'm not...

    It's official, I am the biggest idiot on SM. Help with cooling passage blockage

    Ok, vacuum doesn't work. I even fashioned a nice attachment out straws. The vac actually started picking up oil, so the attachment worked well. That passage goes pretty much straight down, so I don't think there is any chance of picking it up from the top. I have one of the other...

    Thanks for all the tips - it will be my project for tomorrow. I'll update with progress or perhaps further idiocy!

    I was thinking I'd go try to find a good vacuum attachment. I just got a new shop-vac, this will be it's first duty. <<fingers crossed>>

    lol, I'll need a loaner - I think for that much I'll just take the engine out.

    Yes, I know what you're talking about. I guess I can try it - seems like difficult fishing though, as I have no clue how far/what direction the earplug even went.

    I think the supra gods are sending me a message that I'm supposed to take the block out and do this the right way, lol

    It's official, I am the biggest idiot on SM. Help with cooling passage blockage

    Well, today I was removing the big orange earplugs I used to plug the head bolt holes in the block...... I was using a pick to remove them because I shoved them beneath the deck level so I could clean gasket material off the block. As I pulled one of them out, it did a slow-motion triple...

    Need to ship a car

    ^^^ That's a great way. I have used opportunities like this before, saves a bit of money if you can find someone going your way!

    Need to ship a car

    Some of the bigger companies are fine (DAS, etc.). I use Roadrunners because they are local and cheap and have done a great job for me on 20+ vehicles. I don't know if they offer pickup, I always drop my vehicles off to them . Here is a list of auto shippers local to you: Auto Driveaway Co...

    ebay recirculated DDP - fitment and specs?

    Well, I don't mind trying to set up the comparison. If you are going to do any tuning, I can get you my DP, otherwise, I'll be ready soon. I'd really like to get a BIC recirculated DDP as he doesn't have numbers for that one yet and it was the other DP I was thinking about getting. It would...

    ebay recirculated DDP - fitment and specs?

    Is yours a recirculated DDP? Because that would probably be the one worth comparing.

    ebay recirculated DDP - fitment and specs?

    If somebody wants to send me one, I will be doing some dyno tuning soon. It would be easy enough to switch them and get some hp and db readings.

    Salvage title, automatic. Seems overpriced to me.
