Solved problem by disconnecting battery!


That doesnt mean you solved your problem.....that just means you cleared the ECU....if it is a issue, it will come back up very soon....

Next time, get it scanned....the CEL is the ECUs way of telling you something is not right....

Does anyone go to the 3rd Ave car meet on Wed nights? I know it's more old school and not much important present, but it's good to crack on the mustang guys. My brother had a few words with a guy last week. Have not been to La Mesa, what's that like?

5&A Dime Gumball 3000 Evo X

hey guys,

I've met a few of you guys before, like david, alan, dustin. this is brandon, robb's neighbor. I work for a clothing store in downtown sd called 5&A Dime (www.5andadime.com). we're going to be racing in the gumball 3000 rally this year in a evo X MR. it came out pretty sick. just thought i'd post some photos of the car to check out.


















The bike is a 2008 SE Om Flyer. We have a few Greddy bolt ons, Cusco Coils, and the Volk Re30s. Car came out really good, we're super stoked on it.

we were up till 4am getting the car ready, and the team headed up to sf this morning. this year, the rally's going to be rolling through san diego, and were going to be the official merchandiser. they're supposedly closing down 7th ave to park the cars, out in front of the Ivy hotel.



should be pretty sick, hope to see you guys there.

I've had a lot of bad experience with them. They may have some better mechanics, but a few years ago they had some pretty shady ones. The management is cool--but the mechanics (back then) sucked.
