Ok I'm done. No more about the economy from me.

True, but even with computers the Human element remains. Plus wtf would we want Communism for? We spent most of the 20th century fighting Communism and Facisim so if we accepted it we would be looked on as hypocritical by the rest of the world. Not that the rest of the world doesn't see us like that and hate us already.

Splink: gas prices may have to do with the "crash" as well, but you can bet your last dollar that after the election it'll take a hyke to around $3 again. Then they'll have some other BS reason like "We have found out that where we were drilling for oil before has become dry sooner then expected" or some othe BS like that. O and please start a "World Wealth and Polotics" thread. I would love to bitch some more lol

Yeah I know all about the cold war. If you guys are really serious about this politics thing, you can start a thread. We've sort of hijacked 90CRXs, so it would not be a bad idea. Just play nice, please.

I hate politics. I'm so sick of hearing about it everywhere I turn. Between the election and the "crash" I'm ready to find a abandon island in the middle of nowhere with no people.

Sorry that wasn't at anyone here just tired and irritated about some stuff.

[8695Beaters]

Agreed. Let's take it out of here.

Well theirs not a lot I can do to my car until its tuned so I decided to work on my Subaru a little.

Its a Xmod
I've got almost every upgrade for it only thing I don't have is the head/tail lights and the awd setup. I had the awd setup but the front diff got striped out and wouldnd work. I use to drift this car and I also got the skyline and it was setup for high speed racing. It got ran over





Stock look


Wheel whore

Sweet!

I haven't touched it in over a year. So I took the motor apart and cleaned it. Took the entire thing apart and cleaned it out. Now I jut need 4AAA and a 9V and it will be moving again. Just found the AWD upgrade on ebay but can't afford it right now I'm being really tight with the cash until I can get my car tuned.

[splink48]

Thats understandable. I can't play with anything for quite some time.

I moved my crx today...

I moved it to work on the escort were 1/2 way done reinstalling the new motor. Taking a break eating some late lunch and waiting on my brother to get a exhaust gasket.

Did you hear they re-released the XMOD? It's still the Gen II chassis, but now they have the '68 Mustang and R35 GT-R bodies. I was in love with those little cars for a long time. It's all I had to play with until I got a real car. I have like 15 XMODS. The Radioshack near me used to call me whenever they had returned cars. And when they cleaned out their backroom, they found 5 cars and a bunch of random parts. I only paid full price for one car ever (Hummer H2). All the others were either used or bought on sale.

If you guys ever see one of the XMODS trucks for sale, you should pick it up. Glue the diffs and they can rock crawl real nice. Sometime I'm going to do a 6-cell upgrade on my Hummer so it has more power. And glue the tires to the wheels. I've done a body lift and trimming and added some Atomic Mods parts to it (new motor, CF driveshaft, new gears. I'm trying to build my own axles so I can use the wide-track spindles on the front).

And 90CRX gluing the diff gears inside will solve the AWD problem. Just put that diff in the rear and you'll drift really well. I have an EVO Gen-II and it does some awesome powerslides, with only Radioshack gear. Yeah I'm so hooked on these little cars. My buddy has a few I'm going to try and buy from him.
