There's nothing more erotic than hearing "Do me like I'm yours". Some women really know the mental tricks.

What are some good shops in the DC area(close to ffx or tysons if possible) that you all take your vehicles to. I have to have the master/slave cylinders for my clutch replaced and the place my Z was towed to says it will take 10 hours of labor. Which seems a bit much.

Thanks in advance for the inforamtion.

I just had this done two weeks ago at Chantilly Nissan when my clutch went to the floor and didn't come up. I could have done it in my garage, but I didn't feel like tackling it myself this time. I had my master/slave cylinders changed for these prices.

$480 slave
$200 ish for master.

My total at the dealer was like $799. That included an oil change, air filter, new fluids for the clutch lines and other misc stuff.

Are we friends on FB? I put up dates about a Wu-Tang show after Driven1 told me they're coming to VA this month.

Me and some friends already bought tickets to see the Roots this month too. But I'm definitely going to see the Black Keys. I missed them twice already and there's no way I'm missing them again.

Great, thank you so much for this information. The one in FFX was trying to charge my $1500 for the job, and I was thinking no no thats way to much time. From the directions on zspeed it doesnt look to complicated.


What year was your Z? Mine is 2008 so the slave is inside of the transmission.

Last chance, anyone want my old entertainment center? Pix are in my FB Home Improvements album.

BTW, Operation: Mini-Bar was successful last night. All I need is a small wine rack to slide into the bottom shelf and it'll be complete.

Oh and Jeffrey, there's no "x" in my name.

Welcome to team Apple. Best choice you've ever made in getting rid of that faildroid.

I should be upgrading to the 4S after Christmas. (Anticipating Apple Store gift cards for Christmas, yo)

And sorry about the car.
