    Short answer, NO!
    :cry:

    The intercooler heat exchanger I ordered from ebay is on back order till after new years :(
    Of course they didnt tell me this when I payed for it. The ad simply said "6 avaliable" and when I emailed to get my tracking number today is when they told me. Now I wont get the refund back for gawd knows how long (paid through paypal) and I can afford to pay for the one Steeda has in stock till they refund it. Knowing the shipping situation I am sure if I cant order it till tomorrow or Friday that the damn thing wont be here till after x-mas.

    *throws temper tantrum*
    I WANT MY COBRA BACK!!! :fuss:
    *flops on the floor kicking and screaming*

    And file a report with ebay. One of the 2 will make them do something quickly.

    Just got home and they refunded it already. Now I gotta check with my bank to see how long it takes to put it back on my debit card. Hopefully I can order the new one tomorrow :shrug:

    At least my new software showed up :banana:

    Yes Tim, I bought new stuff. I specifically budgeted out the cars repairs (even purchasing a used nose) so that I may repair the cars other problems. The MAF pegged at 5000 RPM and the stock tune ran the car too lean after 4200 rpm. I scored a great deal on a Sniper kit from a member on here that included free tunes on my cars and it was cheaper then what a MAFIA and tune woulda cost me localy. If you have read some of my older threads in 4.6 you will see I have talked about this problem and not being able to ever drive the car beyond 5 grand. Now that and the reoccuring leaking rear end are addressed.
    You can stop thinking now and go back to perving :nice: :rlaugh: :cheers:
    We dont have cable/DSL/Fiber yet out here as its a new area. i am stuck with cell teathering untill something better shows up. My next door neighbor said I can Wi-Fi his internet signal (Huges Net) and gave me the pass code but I am on the fringe so with bad weather its an iffy signal.

    haha. actually, i was using the word tether to mean securing/locking your laptop to your desk. it seems as though it is tethered but for a different reason than i thought! :rlaugh: I was just teasin ya anyways :)

    i was wondering why the lock was on the side of the laptop, theyre usually located at the back. it all makes sense now! :D

    I know, but you gotta see where he's coming from though right? I mean lots of people don't even have two cars, let alone two very nice cars. You've chosen to stay in a bind. With all due respect if a couple of things pop up like a simple brake job and you can't take care of it, you probably shouldn't own an expensive toy. If you have a cushion (money wise) between you and an emergency, emergency's turn into minor inconveniences.

    Yeah, and as said before the reason for holding on to the car is irrational. Anyway, thanks for the concern but my fathers insurance kicks in now and I wont have to shell out $700 a month in medication so it should be much more comfertable for me now. I was in a tight bind and got some help from some friends. My bad for accepting help when it was needed and god forbid I am able to get back on my feet without being guilt tripped for it. I have never turned down a friend in need and always offered help to others. If some people have an issue with me accepting help (after it was offered several times) then its too bad for them. I have enough friends on here that I talk to outside of here that know me and know who and what I am about. :nice:
