23,000. Front and rear rotors are fine as are the front pads. Rear pads are completely shot.

Sounds like fun. Your car should be pretty sick once you get that s256 in and tuned.

Love it there and drive my bike through there every weekend when its nice.


Well anywhere between taylors falls and highway 36 is awesome riding and cruising around. I'm not into all that getting from point A to B the fastest, this type of fun is nice but not required to have a good time. I'm not much of a rule breaker behind the wheel so a good realistic well behaved cruse would be nice and enjoyable.

There should be a adjustment screw. Peddle or handle brake?

im doing studies on myself... I have been off ibuprofen for 6 hours now. the fever, chills and aches are coming back. so now I need see what my temp is, luckily my lovely roommates reluctantly provided me with their thermometer. So this time when I visit the doctor tomorrow for my plague round 2 they may believe me if I can provide a number. Living hour by hour on ibuprofine i dont think is recommended for long, maybe its worse than a heavy weekend of drinking for your kidney's? idk but now sounds a good time to do homework too! Everyone guess my temp! last night I woke up with sweaty sheets so its pretty warm... I was thinking like 103 this weekend...holy **** my fingers are freezing and im getting bad chills... oh i feel like....that movie in the antarctic were that dog was a carrier for that fucked up alien killing everyone, and they turned on each other and committed suicide to end it... i hope my roommates are safe from my zombie attack.
