i need most of that shit as well...just stick with it...ill try and help over the weekend.

[DeathFromAbove]

shit dude. i genuinely feel bad for with this. i got a few things with my car...i think have a loose engine mount, or something's a knocking when i stop and the car rocks back, or even when i turn sometimes...but i think that can be fixed easily. and my rear suspension on the left side knocks because some chick i work with bashed my fender in when she whipped her car out of her spot while on her phone....and i have to fix some rust under both door corners cause of some sidewalk grinds. and my pass 1/4 panel has a uber tiny spec too. oh and my 5th gear synchro is worn, and now it appears my 1st synchro is going too....HOW? I don't know. but if it's gonna be any gears, i'm glad it's those.

feel any better? can you borrow your parent's car or something to at least hook something up with your gf?

my dad drives a 2005 cadi and doesnt really like me driving it, and my mom has her car tonite for meetings.

that reminds me tho, im also running no front motor mount

I wouldnt have known that your car needs that mush stuff, your sig pic make your ride seems it in in great running condition. Just and assumption i guess.....hang in there buddy. I was about sell my car this weekend but change my mind....a little at a time and you'll be set.

50$-new tcm, it almost never goes into gear and when it does it wont shift at all
50$-new radiator
280$-new front brakes, new front pads
50$-new rear brakes, new rear pads, maybe something else
160$-new pass side axle and drivers side axle
85$-new upper control arms

some of these things might sound small to u guys but its been really pissing me off and i dont have time or money to fix any of it. so right now its not drivable and i have school tomorrow. idk what im gunna do, maybe i can catch the train and then the bus down to school.

this sucks too because i was planning on having a nice dinner out with my gf tonite and i cant. plus i have no gift for her cause i lost my brakes on the way to go pick something up for her i guess im just venting now so dont flame me for complaining. give me some words to make me feel better and if u have any of these parts, or know how to install axles and brakes let me know.

TOTAL PRICE FOR FIXING: 1208
