Hey, it's been awhile but I was thinking: a lot of other boards seem to have a thread where everyone will come in and just kind of chat with the other members about everything off topic and other random stuff. They're usually referred to as the "bar and grill" or something like that. Anyways I decided to start one up and hopefully it will flourish here at teamfocus.
So pull up a chair, grab a cold beverage, and kick back. After all, this is the kick back corner. Grab your keyboard and mouse and get to clackin those keys, 'cause this is the Kickback Corner. Enjoy.
they have a medicine to fix them critters
wish this damn rain would stop. have a car show next weekend and need to get the svt cleaned up, bigtime. but whats the use when i'd have to drive it home in the rain...
so whats shakin with ya'll?
Hey guys- sorry I've been away. I want to try to stop by a little more!
I won't deny why I've been gone- WoW took over my life. Plus I'm working an odd shift at my new job.
BUT I haven't forgot about my Focii! My exhaust for the '06 should be arriving in the next couple days. 2.5" mandrel bent stainless steel...
PFF2 is still on hold, at least until the winter. Hopefully I'll get some overtime in at work so I can buy stuff!

I went through that last week after I turned 50.
Yup! I've got a history of colon cancer in the family. Usually you get one every 10 years over thhe age of 40. I, however, am sooo lucky, I get to have one every 5.
So far, they've found nothing. I'm in the....ahem....clear.

My exhuast arrived today. Man is it sweeeeet. Tomorrow, I install it! Gotta do it tomorrow... or I'll never get it in- and here's why.
I work a rotating 3/4 day work week. 3 days one week, 4 days the next, so on, driving an industrial tugger (basically an airport luggage train set up to move pallets of product instead of luggage).
I am one of 3 people on my shift certified to drive said tugger- and I am the regular tugger driver, since I am the best one at doing it (not trying to toot my own horn). The only time someone else drives it is if I am on vacation / sick / off.
The OTHER end of the week had 1 person certified to drive it.
He got fired.
They basically begged me to come drive on their end of the week.
I am now working both ends of the week. At least until they can find someone decent to certify to drive the tugger.
My last day off is Saturday, 8/25, until Labor day.
The good news is that I'll be getting 48 hours of OT pay per 7-day week (12-hour shifts, and anything over 36 is considered OT).

'80 RX7 SA- Where the f*** did THAT come from?
Exhaust looks good and sounds EXCELLENT. Fitment was only OK- there are a couple tight spots, and some of the connections were tough to make, but for the price, you can't beat it.
That is the exhaust system- $215 shipped... yeah, I know it says JDM but I can live with that. Noone has to know.
I would definately reccomend this exhaust to anyone considering getting an exhaust on their ZX3/5.
