California Smog Check

Ok, first of all, if they are driving it on a "road test" and they are driving hard enough to open the secondaries, of course it's going to fail. Around town driving, if you drive like a normal sane human being, you won't have that issue.


Second, I feel for you on the Kali folks moving in, they have been taking over oregon & Washington in droves.

All we want is to live around some English speaking folks

Answer to two questions:

1. I do not have a reference regarding any injectors other than the RC 205's. They were on the car when I bought it. They had been installed about a year ago and seem to be working fine. The engine runs smooth and pulls strong through the gears without hesitation.

2. Regarding the engine power key, mine says: "Normal" and "Full"

Someone give this man a cookie.


Nice threat, btw.
Don't sing it, bring it.

Jesus guys, take a chill pill.

Francisco, the forum is not the place to make open threats. I don't think MOM will tolerate it. End of story.

Ron, a little more tact or PC could have been used.

I suggest both of you take this to PM and figure out a way to shake hands and get over this.

[cuisinartvette]

Perhaps I should have used a smilie to show my sarcasm. If I offended MOM, my apologies. As far as Patton goes, I never mentioned race, or any of the other garbage he's referring to, its not my style. I'm here to learn and drool over Z's like everyone else.
This man's post speaks volumes about his maturity level and I'll leave it at that.
PM sent.

I do find interesting that you seem so bent out of shape about alleged racism, yet you feel you can infer someone's entire being from one post on the Internet.

After Patton's post, I sure hope that they have Anger Management classes in his neck of the woods. Sounds like he has some issues to deal with. Let's get back to the original intent of the thread.

[Patton]

Cuisinartvette's language comment and tf95ZR1's border comment were blatant racially oriented remarks. If you people don’t feel that those were inappropriate comments and that I had a right and moral obligation to stand up and say something about it than you can all go to hell. I don’t give a damn what any of you say, I will voice my opinion whenever the hell I feel I am being disrespected.
I apologize for using harsh language but I'll be GODDAMNED before anybody can sneak sly little racial remarks in between posts on here and everybody chuckle about it and then when I call them on it you guys defend the people who made the original comments? Those involved should be ashamed of themselves.

Ron, you did'nt have to mention race, "we just want to live next to English speaking people" is all you needed to say for any person with an IQ over 70 to understand what you were implying. And your mother gave me a cookie.

May I suggest that your perspective is different than others? While you might be more sensitive, it does not mean that the remarks you are referring to were intended to offend.

As far as I am concerned you are welcome to do so within the forum rules. However, based on the PM you were sent, you know response was outside of the rules.

Again, I think it is a matter of perspective. That said, if you find something offensive that you do not believe should be on this forum, then you should report the post rather than making threats, cursing, and calling people names.

My suggestion to you is that you take a breather, calm down, and get a good nights sleep. We all have bad days, and given time to calm down, we handle things much better.
