I used to have a "I <3 the Environment" sticker on the back of my 7-10mpg city truck, but some tree hugger keyed it so I took it off

I have the abs delete from Phil. Which master cylinder? Do you have the factory brakes still or did you also go with the ligher rotors/calipers?

Well my bud has a V1 Si trim till it blew up. 55k rpm. I know the S trim is only 50k rpm so he'd be downgrading big time...?

Not sure. I spun mine to 6300ut not sure what blower speed was since I had the renegade pulley set on it(16 psi). Its 12 years old. Never had a problem with it. Sounds nasty at idle.

aerospace AC-mbc9401 kit. it will help to modify your brake lever to add leverage, or add a longer lever. you will have to make the double flared brake lines. there are none available.

stock brakes. i will change the brakes and rotors last.

******* craigslist people... have my Z28 advertised for 5K(Because of lowballers like this fuckstick). Guy emails me offering 4K which I say, OK cash and no BS thats fine. He comes back and says, OK 3500 that's my final offer because the axle bearings need to be replaced (Im actually truthful in my ads) so I'm like eh I found a Corolla I want so OK. Now this ************ wants me to drive all the way to Jacksonville (He said he won't come here) and let him drive it, and will probably then try to jew me some more. Says he can find a 6 speed for what I am asking so I told him to go find one. I'm not going to sell it to him on principle now.

I had guys doing the same to me with my LT1 WS6 back in 2011 when it went for a decent amount of money.

Had one dude offer me $3,700 because "he found an ls1 for $3,700". Told him to send me link, rusted out POS, no options, torn up interior, dirtiest engine bay on earth, etc. Tell him I want whatever he is smoking.

Sends me a KBB or NADA page with a LT1 with a value of $3900. No options, firebird formula, 170k (mine had 112k at the time)

Craigslist, full of idiots. Then I had people get mad at me and e-mail me because in several of my ads I put "Don't bother low balling me, you'd be wasting both of our times"

Yeah he just sent me back a nasty email I told him to pack ******* sand.
nother guy on here wants to trade me a 99 GTP for my car straight up. I could sell mine outright for more so I don't think I'm going to do it. I want a 35-40+mpg car to DD, so a GTP I would just sell anyways.

You said you're looking at Corollas?

Ugh, I should probably consider a fuel efficient DD in the long run, but I love my truck so much...
