ok fail on that AB site... it merged this evening with the other sites...

now I have no subscriptions, and although I can see my thread's title, when I click on it, it says "this thread does not exist"...

hmmm...

IMHO a better name (which would allow more potential members) would be something akin to Alberta Ecotec Owners Group or Alberta Ecotec's for short.

I'd love to see a larger group;
on encompassing pretty much all vehicles which have an ecotec engine (or related by platform ect)...
HHR's, Solstice's, Sky's, Ions... all of them.

should i even check this morning if the site's working yet?

pretty much everything I tried to do did not work last night... actually for some of the time I couldn't even see threads, or anything...

EDIT:

nope still screwed up.

introductions main page (my thread is currently fourth from he top);
[url]http://westerndeltas.ca/viewforum.php?f=2&sid=ed9e5e9fccc073628b2c2c19eeaa 42dd[/url

link to my thread (click the link, I dare you);
http://westerndeltas.ca/viewtopic.ph...2c2c19eeaa42dd

your intro thread is the same.

I don't get it. if he's already paid for the domain name, why not let the sites work seperately?

It's not like the sites are going to take up any more space on his server or anything...

ps - I'm still with the 'ecotec' over 'delta' name...

What shipper do you use?

Since UPS closed their depot in sweetgrass, I have driven all the way to the depot in Great Falls - or the last time I had it routed to the UPS store nearest to the depo so that I could pick up on Saturday...

I am pretty sure I've posted this before, but this is arguably my favorite game (and first one I ever bought back in the day);



this is a close 2nd;



and in the interest of diversity, these two are tied for the next most favorite;

Soundjunky - I use At the Border Storage offers courier and postal parcel receiving. Have your parcels sent to our storage facility and we will receive and safely store them for you.

URL says it all haha. They take it and you give them 5 bucks to get it. They will hold onto it for 90 days so order a few things and make a trip or whatever. Makes it nice, I'm going to get rims sent there this spring. Will save me a lot on shipping and a trip in the cobalt is not much money at all. Maybe I should start my own delivery company with the plane from there to Canada haha.

Hey all!

I'm posting a link here to see what you guys think of this technology. I'm very interested in it myself, and I'm pretty sure I can work with the purchasing dept at the company I work for to bring it in. We are a major electrical wholesaler after all, and they're partnered with Honeywell, which is one of our suppliers, so I'm pretty sure we can do it. The question is, would their be a market for it in Calgary. I don't even know whether or not anyone in the city has already known about it or used it. If you guys know, give me a shout. If there is enough interest, from either individuals or businesses, we may be able to supply you. I would get our staff discount, but I don't even know how much that would be on an item like this. And before I talk to the peeps I work with I wanna be able to gauge the possible interest/demand in the region first.

I'm serious about this. I have SO many ideas.

Light TapeŽ - Bring your imagination to light!

^ Nothing new, used to use stuff like that on my R/C Helicopters to outline it at night. You could probably do some cool stuff to a car with it.

Anyways, glad I could help you guys find a place haha. Looks like my plans are shot to go with this snow, it's insane out.

On another note, I love the brakes in my car. Just about got taken out by a drunk guy on the wrong side of the road last night.

^ya I hate the winter. I still have to put the rear diff in the car and move the tranny coolers off the rad. I got a set of et streets so I hope the car will hook up. We just moved so I have to orginize the garage so I can work on the car. Ill prob need to put a rollbar setup in the car it should be down in the low 11's or high 10's on pump gas and meth.

See the new Camaros come with gfx now. They changed the body and they can't be taken off. We had a customer wanted the hennessey ones put on.
