CURIOSITY KILLED THE CAT.
Four Departments of New York City Government Summoned to Rescue Feline.
From the New York World.
Curiosity, as you may recall—
On the fifth floor of the apartment house at 203 West 130th street lives Miss Mable Godfrey. When she came to the house about seven months ago she brought Blackie, a cat of several years' experience of life.
The cat seldom left the apartment. He was a hearth cat, not a fence cat, and did not dearly love to sing. In other respects he was normal and hence curious.
Last Tuesday afternoon when Miss Godfrey was out Blackie skipped into the grate fireplace in a rear room. He had done this many times before. But he had not climbed up the flue to the chimney. This he did Tuesday. Blackie there remained, perched on the top of the screen separating the apartment flue from the main chimney, crying for assistance. Miss Godfrey, returning, tried to induce her pet to come down. If you are experienced in felinity, you know that Blackie didn't come down.
On Wednesday the cat, curiosity unsatisfied, tried to climb higher—and fell to the first floor. His cries could still be heard by Miss Godfrey; who, to effect Blackie's rescue, communicated with the following departments:
1. Police department.
2. Fire department.
3. Health department.
4. Building department.
5. Washington Heights court.
Among them they lowered a rope to Blackie. But it availed neither the cat nor them anything.
Thursday morning, just before noon, a plumber opened the rear wall back of the chimney. Blackie was taken out. His fall had injured his back. Ten minutes later Blackie died.

Personally, I like the EVO 9's better than the STi. I love my STi. But, I bought it because I wanted a new car and hated the EVO 10. The low end STi grunt is nice, but low end grunt ends quickly. An EVO9 with some bolt ons and and STi with the same bolt ons are to entireley different beasts. The M3 will be replaced soon, one of the contenders is an EVO9.

Personally, I like the EVO 9's better than the STi. I love my STi. But, I bought it because I wanted a new car and hated the EVO 10. The low end STi grunt is nice, but low end grunt ends quickly. An EVO9 with some bolt ons and and STi with the same bolt ons are to entireley different beasts. The M3 will be replaced soon, one of the contenders is an EVO9.
id agree. it takes alot of work to keep these subies on full boil whereas the evo tends to have a more linear powerband. its all a byproduct of the poor exhaust design mainly: too big of a turbo and u lose spool big time! too small of a turbo and it runs out of steam on the top end.
ive debated an evo myself recently...

It's cool I don't mind. If I remember it was $250ish? Compared to like 3 other places I called and had come give me an estimate they were good. The main problem is a driveway job is a relatively minuscule job and having a concrete truck come out typically bares a minimum charge with any company. Some people or places will try to use bagged cement, but it's a different composition and longevity is different. Just depends on what you're able to afford and what you're looking for.

That's not too bad. I mean, I'd rather make a one time payment on something rather than having to keep getting the car repainted, ya know? Plus the accumulative damage that it may cause. It'll definitely be worth it.
I'll have to give them a call. Thanks for the recommendation :)

Received a call from a customer that wants to make his E46M generate enough power to hit the 200mph mark at the Texas Mile mark next May. He's already hit the mark with two previous cars. He also wants to install the AA Level 2 S/C kit on his wife/girlfriend's E46M as well. This will be interesting. :)

The S54 is a solid motor. In fact, there are many 600+whp setups utilizing stock internals. You bought a car that has passed many hands therefore you cant confirm who did what. The fact that you were also having issues with the original ECU doesn't help in terms of the tune and what you were trying to do with it.

You apparently didn't learn from the Porsche, did you? The VW in terms of cost and reliability will not be much less than the Porsche. Even if you buy one with a warranty doesn't mean that warranty will last forever.

I was waiting for you to say something lol I am well aware of this fact, actually. I've thought about it and still have LOTS of time to think about it (several months, to be exact).
Speaking of which...should I bring the Porsche in for the CEL or just let it go for now? I highly doubt it's the o2 sensor. It throws that code up every time.

You have a solid car now that will last for a long ass time as long as you maintain it. Much smarter route to go, IMO.
Yes, bring the Porsche back in. We need to figure that stupid code out once and for all.

I know, I know. German vs Japanese. I even told the salesman that I'll be kicking myself in the ass for going German again, and he laughed and actually agreed. Normally they go the "I don't know, these cars are pretty reliable" route, but he was pretty straight up lol
Speaking of repairs not being much less than the Porsche, I actually don't mind paying for the Porsche. My parents make a big deal out of it, but it actually makes me a little proud. Why? I haven't the slightest fucking clue. I guess proud Porsche driver??? Flaws and everything? I get kinda excited paying for it.
And I agree. I'm getting so tired of seeing that CEL. Tires are off balance too, but I can get that fixed elsewhere.

Think about the cash you could save in your account by owning a Japanese vehicle. If you were older and had a solid career job, that'd be one thing.
Let Discount Tire balance the wheels using the road force machine. Have they always been out of balance or just recently? I don't recall this being an issue. I'd like to get the Porsche fixed and not have to think about it again.

I'm absolutely disgusted by the way the Mk5 GTI feels. I used to kinda maybe sorta dig them, but after playing with the shifter and with it's even more delayed throttle response..I couldn't get out of that car any faster.

To be honest, the Miata was a dumb purchase for me, as well. I should've thought about what I wanted instead of what everyone else wanted for me. That was my biggest mistake, but the only thing I can do now is take it as a learning experience.
Yes, it's a recent issue. And I agree 100% with you on that one.

After driving it for that weekend, I enjoyed the car, but could not wait to get back into my car. In the GTI you are just left guessing if you are in the right gear or if you are releasing the clutch at the right point since you feel nothing. But in the Miata you are one with the car and feel its every move and you know exactly what you are doing.

Eh...everyone has their opinions :dunno:
This is for ME...not everyone else. The one point I missed with the Miata.
As far as personal driver preference goes, I enjoyed it. And that's all that matters.
Everything else is still to be decided.

BMW had a bad run of rod bearings but have since been revised. HPF still utilizes the factory rod bearings in all they're builds (unless requested by the customer for something else) that produce 1k+whp.
I appreciate and like the looks of the GTS coupes but the twin turbo setup is not needed unless you're specifically looking for straight line performance as they're already a handful to manage around a road course. There is a red one with gold stripes sitting on HRE wheels that is often found at RA. That one made me really like the looks of the car and to this day, my favorite one I've come across. If I were to buy one, it would need to be the new ACR. It recently regained the title of the fastest time around the 'ring; 7:12.

I believe those are Rotas as the Subaru community seems to be a big fan of that stupid brand.

Lol A quote from Davenow concerning wheels/Rotas. IDC who likes what wheel and why. Not debating/arguing/proving a point. I just thought this was funny. lol
How many motorsport events have you won on better rims?
How many motorsport events have I done and or won, on Rotas.
Exactly. Keep posing on your $3000 rims, Ill go actually race on rims that are just as good and 1/5th the cost. Oh, and Ill beat guys like you, on whatever rim you want. Every. Single. Time. In any form of motorsport in a car.
There is a reason why you NEVER see anyone talk **** about cheap wheels at track days, autocrosses, timed hot lap events.
That is because people who actually race their car, people who actually know about going fast, know that the only thing that matters is "does it work well" And they do.
Shall I dig up the failed BBS and Volk pics again? They always seem to shut guys like you up. I wish I had taken pics of the upside down manhole cover I hit with the rotas on my WRX back in the day. HUGE bracing on the bottom of it. The wheel suffered ZERO damage.

I will say it again and will ALWAYS stand behind my logic....
The reason why I dislike Rota, Drag (replicate of Rotas), Sportfag/XXR, etc. so much is the fact that their marketing strategy is simply taking a popular wheel and copying it via Chinese manufacturing using cheaper materials. If it wasn't for Volk, Work, HRE, CCW, etc to generate new wheel designs, Rota wouldn't be such a large company like they are today. I'm not saying that Rota wheels are ugly as I can admit that they have a couple models in their lineup that are actually decent looking. It is these type of companies that are forcing the big dawgs such as HKS, Greddy, etc to close doors. They spend millions of dollars in R&D and then you have these half ass companies that simply steal the design (they can sell them for less due to lesser quality material, manufacturing process and no expense on R&D). If I were in the big dawg shoes, I wouldn't have any incentive to keep spending bookoos of money on R&D and keep pushing the envelope knowing that all the cheap asses aren't willing to pay for a QUALITY product that actually performs, I'm not just talking about wheels but products as a whole. I don't give two shits what Dave says. Everyone will think differently about the situation but I will always continue to support the OG's, if you will, by spending the extra coin and buying their goods. That is what separates the men that have been in the scene for some time from the posers that joined simply because they thought F&F was super fucking cool.
Since I'm already on a rant, I might as well bitch about all these faggots that think using colored zip ties on their lip looks cool...sorry but it doesn't. Just because you went out and bought a dslr doesn't make you a photographer nor are your driveway "photoshoots" worth posting. 15x8 et0 on a Civic looks like shit, period. It looks hella gay, just like your nut tucking jeans.
