What can I say? Life has prevented me from actually posting here.
Wine, Women and Song.
And because my journal is always about me, rather than anything actually
interesting...
My baby, the 1992 Mitsubishi Galant GSR, as yet unnamed, that I bought for
AU$3k...
Yeah, the CMS system is pretty shoddy compared to even some of
the most basic ones I've seen on the web. Having to use
stupid tricks like putting a space after the URL to prevent
tress's script from breaking URLs in two is really lame.
Looks better than the old galants they have here in the US. Good luck with
the manual conversion; alot of people talk about doing that but then they
find out it's more trouble than it's worth. You're better
off getting rid of that gay shifter and spending the money on some other
kind of enhancement.
All of the bitchin' rides in your country & you choose this?
Save your cash & put it into your next car, not this one.
Better yet, tell me what the performance gains of a short shifter
are & I'll tell you that my lap times in my Slush-O-Matic 240SX
are very similar to the 5- speed I now drive.
The car seems to
be in great shape for a 16- year old Mitsu. Enjoy it!!
Mmm, yeah, I often wonder why people buy upgrade things, like shorter
shifters, spoilers, coffee-can mufflers, special lights (like
camo's) and stuff like that for cars which are inheritly unworthy
of such things. Better to just buy into something fundamentally
better, than to polish a turd.
I'm not implying the Mitsubishi is a turd, but it should just be
a stepping stone to something better that becomes the investment
worthy of upgrading.
The idea of the SS is to
offer quicker shifting with reduced distance that the shift knob
has to travel when changing gears.
Think F1 where
automatic shifting is done in the 100ths of a second. The
quicker you can get the gears changed, the faster you can get
power back to the ground.
Been ages since my last post...
