The Ohio Random Thread... aka We Should Probably Be Working

[Lewis7789]

Well I've got a spare if any of those Speed guys pop theirs. I'll sell it cheap too! Only $4500. But I'm not installing it for them.

if it weren't for you my car would have gone Kaboom a while ago

Likewise

Who the hell are you? Go back to your Focus site with yo busted ass fukus. Lmao

When are you gonna get that thing running?

I dunno, I think I'm going to do a complete tare down and take a couple years and rebuild it properly. Maybe make my first showing at FF'15. I'm already gathering up parts, just picked up a complete rear sub frame w/ svt sway bar.


Just a little into of myself, for those who hasn't meet me at the last two meets or on the MWMC fb page.

I'm James Lethcoe, I have a '04 mazda 6 S, '02 focus, and a '95 ranger.

Depends on what RC car. My future brother-in-law has an electric truggy that goes from 0-90 mph in about the length of my driveway...

comparison was with my old Tycos, lol.

Yeah. I followed him the other day and it sounds mean when he gets on the throttle, but when cruising its got such a strange note. It reminded me of a brushless electric motor lol. Silly 3 cylinder

stock exhaust? I got off the bike yesterday after riding 8a-1p and I couldn't hear s***. :/ worse than the miata, even with a helmet on!!

They had me log into mine during the interview process. Otherwise, im only friends with former co-workers that became good friends of mine.

Otherwise i dont show up in search on FB. The only way to find me is if we have a mutual friend

that's weird. I think I may have stopped the interview process at that point by walking out, lol. There isn't even anything bad on my Facebook, but it would have taken them hours to go through mind-less posts and pics haha.

If it weren't for MSF my car would have more than likely ended up like Peaches.

(sadbanana)

at the time, MSF didn't help much

Pablo, did you zoom-zoom-boom?

 

[codex]

also this forum was way overpopulated with stance. and still lingers with it. MSF is all performance.

More like this forum is "Do what you want, it's your car. We'll just make fun of you in another thread." MSF is "You must do what we want or you will be ridiculed mercilessly until you change your mind or never post again."

It's just a family sedan. You want me to get you some of those stick figure people?

Are we talking real family or the meep family? If your talking the meep family it would take up the whole back window.

 

[chandlerGTi]

This is the only forum that I've found any discussion for the 5 at all (besides grm). Funny though; even if it is basically a 3 with a larger body there is hardly any aftermarket.

Ouch.

i remembered the other thing facebook was good for...
...back to that subject just for a moment...
ever get on the mazda page? I like'd them and they post something every once in a while, and it's usually entertaining to look at but what's more entertaining are the comments people post. When mazda pays for a "sponsored" post some people who didn't like the page or weren't aware of it see their post and they usually reply with a lot of irrational hate. Lots of old fat white guys with a new camaro somewhere in their profile picture talking about buying american, sometimes people with rebel flag pictures talking about people who don't buy american being un-american, and people bitching about how the STI or evo are the best cars ever and no mazda compares to them.
It's a good page to look at if you want to be a mazda troll- i'm mostly in it to diss the old camaro guys.

...back to looking at the hole in that engine block

 

[princess peach]

That was the front, this is the back

You a member on the midwest mazda club facebook page? it's private and nobody but local mazda peeps is on there. For the record sti vs a mazdaspeed6. The 6 is way more comfy to be in and the ride quality is so much better.

GlassMaker I live just 45 mins from you in Lima, maybe we can do a small meet with chandler from Findlay sometime in Lima. Possibly have some of the Toledo or Cincy guys stop by for a few. I think it would be pretty sweet.

At Larry, from the comments I'm thinking that's pablo's ms3. That's the car that first brought Pablo into our fold : )

Well, I'm back!! Let me tell you, spending 10 days in the hospital is pushing the limits of sanity! When the nurse who was off for a week for vacation and comes back and sees me still there ... they were all feeling bad for me but they were all so so nice. I'll miss them : )

So even though I'm home, I'm still stuck on crappy sleep schedule. I was so uncomfortable on that bed, I'd be up and restless all night ... and here I am now at 2am : ) but at least now I'm on my own couch ... and in my own comfy bed!

Well, Justine and James (aka Chippy) stopped in to see me on Friday and they came bearing gifts from my meeps!! After receiving a BEAUTIFUL vase of multi colored roses (my favorites) earlier in the week with wishes for a zoom-freakin'-zoom recovery from my meep family, I thought that was plenty nice of y'all!! And then more gifts of gc 's from giant eagle, Marathon, Kohl's, bier Haus ... and MENCHIES!!! (Hope i didn't forget anythimg, it IS 230am) OMG I was overwhelmed with the Mazda love (I had to explain all that to my nurses too!) Thank you so much! I'll be sending out individual thank yous soon.

 

[hat1018]

We are happy to hear from you Lauri. We hope you have a quick and full recovery.

 

[hat1018]

Ok, Pablo had made mention of the MSM having an issue. I am glad it wasn't that.

 

[CTt3P5]

Great to hear you are back home Lauri!!!! Tam and i were thinking about you and wish you well in the upcoming months.

Yea that would be cool. I used to hang out in lima all the time, I got a friend that lived there but he moved to ada, and I used to live in wapak.

Anyone else going to Superfly tonight?
