Even if the 911 is slower than the Evo it will drop the panties better...

i think putting the monthly payment down on a Porsche would cause the panties to drop dramatically less LOL!!!

I just love the Porches. They are so good looking. I could live with a Cayman S for day to day life and still have my Evo for fun.



COME ON LOTTO!!!!!

Don't you have to be a Dish Network customer to join Blockbuster's new on-demand program? Since Netflix dropped the retarded Qwikster idea I've decided to stick with them.

Yeah you have to be dish to get the ondemand. I'm with charter cable. We just watch a ton of DVDs so I'm mainly going for that. I don't care to much about streaming.

Ahh, well then it sounds like it might be a good fit for you, or Redbox as Jose suggested (which I used to use a lot before getting Netflix, its a solid choice, especially now that they have BluRay discs and you can search/reserve online).

Agreed with Jose except I've never used NetFlix but my GF and I use Redbox all the time. It's very nice to be able to reserve a movie online or from my phone and pick it up on my way home from work. Then I just drop it off on my way to work the next day and presto! It works well for us.

Or you guys could check out Vudu, one of the best 1080p hi def streaming available. But you will need a faster download speed and they have a 99cents special each day.

Once bitten twice shy for me on Blockbuster. They used to have return to store, get free instore rental and then they took it away so I cancelled it. Now that NF/RB is kicking their butt they have it back again... for how long?

Personally we looked at our NF rental history and it was stuff for the kid. And he mostly just watched things on the streaming (we were sitting on the disks) so we just cancelled the dvd by mail and haven't really noticed any issues.

I will warn anyone that *buys* movies from a service like Vudu that you'd be better off throwing your money into the toilet. Those companies won't exist in the future and you are buying literally nothing.

how much tq for evo x spark plug but i dont have tq wrench so i did this...(some says 1/8, i did it 1/4) i dont see any oil yet on my engine bay so i think im ok.

I don't have a torque wrench so I finger-tightened my spark plugs until I couldn't tighten them anymore and then I turned them almost 1/2 a turn. Does that sound right? The manual specifies 2/3 turn but somebody on the board said 1/2 turn is fine (I'd rather go a bit too loose than too tight). Are they too loose/tight?
