• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

maybe, I never get them, to old...but I try and figure it our regardless. my kids tried once and I needed a decoder to read it.

my last point being, to lighten up. try and learn them all. I have been bending wrenches for ever, and those little 'nyms' keep getting longer..

without them we would spend forever writing them out, most mechanics do not type,,,well

well, thats the funny thing with the written word, unless you know the author and/or have feel for what said author might have said, it is realy a subjective process.
What you have written must be read and interpeted, without being the great Kreskin one can only go off of what we read.
I am usually accused of being sarcastic,,,and mean...and as Dr Sydney said 'pull down your pants and slide on the ice' lighten up?
 
FUBAR = F'ed Up beyond all recognition

UBAR and WIN = The most awesome anything can possible be!

UBAR and FAIL = The biggest failure possible..if referring to a person they should instantly go kill themselves ROFLMAO
 
hey now, dont be hating on the GT's. Simply add a supercharger to them and they are the same a GTP, and if you add a turbo to them, they are much faster than a GTP i may add lol. Plus, IMO, they are probably up there with the quickest FWD N/A cars list. So dont hate on them : )

Funny how until I found this forum, I always thought FTW= F**K The World. Weird
 
SLP - Street Legal Performance or Strength, Love and Pontiacs

'06 and '07 GTs are supercharged, there were not GTPs (technically) for those years.
In '08 you either got a GP sedan or GP GXP.
 


I am just new to your forum and just spent about 1 hour and 30 minutes lurking and reading. I think I will frequent your forum from now on after going through some of your posts. I will definitely learn a lot from them.
