GO PRO HERO AT TARGET. I think ALLEN NORTH has the last one on clearance for $150. Impossible to find but if you are at a target keep an eye out in the electronic section for go pro clearance. SLICKDEALS........


Also go pro 3 was $199 + free $25 gift card last week at target. attached is the ad and not sure what sales are going on right now. Personally holding off till black friday and every company will sell their souls......


target red DEBIT and CREDIT card will give you 5% off on top to help ease the tax hit... GOBAMA/ROMNEY 2016

edit: GO PRO HERO 2 IS DOWN TO $105 or lower if you can find them. AS LOW AS $85

no didn't finish - i got to order more parts - new drivers side CV - outer tie / ball joints - rear main - (maybe flywheel because i want) - also need a pully puller and i might have to take my hubs in to get the tie rod ends pressed out because i haven't gotten them to exit their home yet - they seem to be loving the hub -

two weird to me things i haven't encountered before -

1. teh cv joints have pins in them that have to be knocked out - eats up engineering time trying to figure out how to remove them - BEFORE removing the pins - remove the pins, instant success
2. clutch fork - trying to pull the transmission back with the clutch fork still in will eat up valuable engineering time - removing the fork provides instant success similar to the above

i slept a lot today

QO - Those wheels are gigantic where you work?

there is a lot of black/grey - i'll be happy to swap someone rear deck lids so i can have some black and grey - hehehe
