No, haven't worked for Culligan for almost 2 years...when the wife cheated and left, I lost the house because I couldn't afford it and lost my job because I wasn't stable mentally...lost everything because of that. Starting from scratch...work for a liquor distributor now, but the job is pretty shitty...need to find something else (probably not driving for a while...warehouse or production line type work most likely) unless I can get into school and figure out how to work part-time and go to school.

HHR SS at Friendly went down to $14,950...getting closer...I need to get some more money set aside...do want now that they've lowered it to under $15k...try to get them to throw in oil changes and car washes at the very least if they won't lower the price more.

at the moment, it's not. i shredded my belt while back and it's been sitting in the garage. i have to do some grinding to the block to get the lsj idler contraption to align with the rest of the belt system evenly so i don't shred any more belts.
after that, i may have to replace/upgrade my fuel pump. apparently a 2.9 may have been "to much"? :shrugs:
then it's a visit with ryan
how about you?

Same old, same old...still running NA...not going to bother with any more power on this car...I decided to go past the basic intake, full exhaust, tune...added the 2.4 mani/tb...swapped out the Pacesetter header/Exhaust Depot catless DP for a Badmab/ZZP 2.5" catted setup...a bit different sound...not beast like before...little more quiet...fits the slowness of the car better...people expected too much when hearing it before and it didn't do anything...now when it doesn't do anything, nobody gives a ****. haha
I'm planning on re-doing the suspension again this year...third setup...first was FE1 with Sportlines, current is FE5 with Pedders....will be doing FE5 again (just need new shocks and struts) and going with the YYZ v.2 springs. Also going to swap from the Street bar to the Hardcore bar since I upgraded the front to the FE5 bar last fall. That will be the last I ever do to this car...after that, it's just drive it.
Trying to figure out a plan for a 2nd car...something more fun, but also versatile...preferably a Sonic hatch or an HHR SS...not sure yet. Won't be for at least 2-3 more months before I decide what I can afford...but must have turbo. If I could afford more, I'd go luxury and fun...I'd go Verano Turbo or maybe Regal GS or maybe Encore AWD.
Just don't want to sacrifice too much gas mileage.
