Just another post to make it a grand ,1000 posts in a eleven months I think that makes me #5 in top poster's ,but who's counting.

Welcome to the club.

Shave your butt, we'll brand you next week.

I'm half way there!!!

BTW, shave what????

Congrats!!!!!!!! 960 more posts and I'm there!!! LOL

Congrats Chico for you and your amazing GT!!!

Congrats. Branding iron is hot and ready

aint nothin like a lil torture to show our luv..

1000th post, baby!!!!

2 years of saying absolutely nothing...

Congrats to both of you!

if he gets a branded butt for 1000 then I'm scared to ask what I'm in for when I reach 2000

2000 is nothing wait till the 5000th. But we can't talk about that.

Wow!
Way to bring life to an old thread!

Welcome to the club.

Shave your butt, we'll brand you next week.

im glad im not any where near 5000 yet. or even a 1000

SHHHHHHHH

on my gaming clan's counter-strike source forum i am over 5000 posts lol...but congrats on 100 posts here

We should have a secret forum section for those of us with over 1000 posts

I've always like forums; you learn so much. I used to be on a studio recording / equipment, etc forum but started to get bored with that and gpnet pretty much took its place. Theres only so many times you can say "this microphone sucks" and "buy _____ for this application".

That's ridiculous, get a life!

yeah i know...but ..hey i am the official forum junky out of the 800 members we have on the forums ....

Just wanted to bring this post back to life.... 1000th post for me!!

Where's the iron?

hmm, how many posts I got?

EDIT: Not nearly enough. Oh, well, looks like I'm spared the searing for a while longer.

Weak sauce.

Shave your butt, etc.

arc is coming up on the 1K too...
i'm creeping up on 1500. i have no idea what i talk so much about on here...
i guess specific forums are like a room full of people who are all basically interested in the same stuff.

Yea... well i'm coming up on 100

I zipped by 1000 some time back. Making progress toward 1300 though.

well since I just topped 2000 I guess we're all finally gonna have to attend a meet...gonna be tough to explain when we all get home about butt shaving and why we cant sit down cuz it hurts too much

We can replace the iron with a baseball bat if it's preferred.


All you guys are slowly knocking me out of the Top 5.

Eh, you're still what, solid 3rd or 4th? It'll be at least another year, probably more until I'm anywhere close to yours.

I'll have to start going with my seniority. Even that's a weak case, but there's no way you can beat me there.

i finally made it to 1000 today!!!

I'm 9th in the rank.
I better start reminding rook to get a powertuner more often. AHEM

Shouldn't we have some brown hooded robes or something?

shave your butt...we'll put on the robes...I'll put on my mask and cape and do the branding honors...it'll look like the t-shirt logo

This forum rocks!!!

FWIW, It's great to have a national forum to visit that I enjoy. If it weren't for this forum, I'd prolly just stick to my local clubs.

Keep posting!!! First one to 10K gets braggin' rights....

I'll be more than glad to buy yours for half price. :p

haha... I wouldn't sell you it for $600 (due to the wait).

I built a fort to keep you guys out and away from me. There are some shiny things over there to distract you, too.

Congrats!

Only 968 more to go here... =D

<< Puts dark shades on to be not distracted by shiny things.

And stokin the fire for the branding iron.

Arc hit 1000!

...and when we wear our brown hooded robes we command the powers of the Force...no fortress shall stay us from our appointed duties.

But .. no boys allowed.

Okay, no, seriously, I've been here for 1000 posts and come to the conclusion almost none of them were worth a hill of beans. ... Here's to more.

Congrats on the posts. I will be there soon only 993 more to go, I figure I will be there in the next week or so.

Tbat: watch yourself... She's pretty damn good with a lightsaber...

Don't ask... :0

I want a real light saber.

would that be considered a concealed weapon?

My son is a Star Wars geek for sure and he has several of those "force effects" lightsabers which we have been known to spar with on frequent occasion. I think I can hold my own long enough for the other fellas to get the branding done.

Take heart Arcx...it'll be like getting a new tattoo

dunno how much longer it'll take, but I think I'm gonna hafta duck outta here in about 50 more posts or so. Branding does not sound pleasant...

They haven't caught me yet.

I'm too quick for these old guys.

You start slowing down when you start to carry a heavy post count

Herc, 7K!!!! wooo hooo!

yup

lol @ herc and bobby!

Whats the matter tired of answering the same questions!?

For example:
Whats a good first mod for my GTP?

What else should I do with my 2.8" pulley?

heheh, this could be fun.

Should I replace the mufflers with the 2.5" downpipe from ZZP?

Foglight gaskets?
LED reservoir?
Headlamp fluid?

I got this noise, I don't know where it is coming from? What could it be? Any help here...

LOL

Might it be your Warp Drive?

Should I get a CAI, or FWI? What's the biggest wheels and tires I can install without rubbing?
What does code POxxxx mean? When I step on the gas at a light, my car goes "Boogity Boogity Boogity!" Is that bad?

I'm putting a 3.0 pulley on my GTP for cheap boost.

Do Mustang rims fit?

Are everyone else's headlights foggy?

How do I build a better mousetrap?

More like "should I get the secret weapon intake or the electric supercharger??? I saw the tornado intake insert on ebay and I want to buy one. Is it worth the money?"

Does a gtp come with a turbo?

dont forget to check the muffler bearings

should i get 24 or 26 inch rims for my grand prix?

I got 36" rims for my gp, how do I get them to fit in the wheel wells?

do they make lift kits for gp?

I'm cutting speed holes in my bumpers, where are the best places to do this?

whats the best appearence mods to do i dont want to do any performance ...

How can I make my car do 11's in the quarter without breaking anything?

waste of money...because everyone knows Grand Prixs are slow, and imports are fast..

who the best to get the cheapest gp parts from?

how do i contact ed?

i think we need to add his info in the faq

I am getting like 50 mpg what is everyone else getting? Lol, no way, 2fast4u is getting 9 mpg. I hit some love bugs and I get 50!



By the way, the MAGIC ERASER did wonders, no real big scrubbing. Plus it helps to have some wax on there before they hit the car!

damn i just washed my bugs off no wounder im getting low miles ... haha

If you hit a deer (or a gator) your mileage should double! (triple even...)

is the difference between at gt and a gtp is that the gtp comes with a fluax capactior?

The "P" means there is a JATO on top of the engine block, creating boost! The smaller the JATO the more Thrill!

Back to 1000 posts. When I post multiple times on one thread, my post count stays the same. How do the post counts go up?

man, I should have gotten in on that free-for-all posting spree. Maybe I woulda got my 1k today! Hey, what do ya say, I rhymed in both sentences I had to say, aint that great?

I didn't know this was a thread for free posting.

I'm coming close to losing my spot in the top 5 and this is why?

Absolutly. Needa catch back up, or at least get another GP. No GP? To the back of the bus with ya! ARRR! jk, man.

I'm officially a post whore.

I don't see a Grand Prix in my future.

I don't see a Grand Prix in Pontiac's future either. Zing!

Ouch.

I see a Grand Prix in your past. Oh wait it just rolled down a hill, over a ledge and crashed into some trees. wtf!

LOL, thanks for the painful reminder of the G8. Thats nice. Yeah, its such a bummer that you did drive your car to suicide. Wonder why that is? Oh, the Mopar and rice in the driveway, thats what did it... (Just messin with ya, btw.)

Maybe there is a Grand Prix moving close to your home town and it may just roll down the street right in to your driveway! Then you'll have to take it.

One will eventually take pity on him and follow him home...

He'll push it back in the street and say "shoo!", but it'll roll right back in and beg to stay... =)

LOL, the opposite of the dog seeking pity: the dog (or GP, if you prefer) takes pity on the human, and begs to stay. "Promise, Bryant, I'll cure that penchant of yours for rice. Promise I will."

Fixed!

Oh thats right my bad. hehe.

999 posts, just one more...

one thousand posts! go ahead and get the brandin "eye-urn" ready, cause you cant catch me! magic pixie dust, NINJA VANISH!!!

you guys have got way too many smileys to play with

lol, but you're diggin em and you know it.

http://www.websmileys.com

Bobby's such a bad influence, just feeding the fire like that...(do it again)

All you guys are horrible.

You could consider my Honda to be rice, but that insinuates that it's slow. 370lbs with 130 horsepower isn't too slow. Just think, I could have bought a Harley that weighs 500+lbs with 75 horsepower (and leaks oil). Or a single cylinder Buell. I'll pass.

keep on justifying rice. rice doesnt HAFTA be slow. Its still rice. Take a Spoon mill and throw it in a Stang or Vette or something, and that makes the American car rice.

Either way, you still rice. Ricer. You're ricer-ific.

Nothin but love, Bryant.

you know its getting bad when even the smileys have cars...and just my2 cents here but I dont consider sport bikes ricers. I know theyre Japanese but a Honda Goldwing is still a Honda and I wouldnt consider that rice. I know the Harley guys have called Japanese bikes rice burners for years...but bikes like Bryants I call crotch rockets...mostly because they are insanely fast and I know I aint got the cajones to ride one of them...Ducatis are Italian (pasta burner?) and I wouldnt get on one of those either. I think maybe you gotta be a little crazy to own one of them to begin with (based on the way I've seen most of them ridden)...maybe the GP ran away in fear?

I think most sport bike riders are a little crazy. If you can be responsible, they're only as dangerous as you ride them.

In reality, motorcycles are only as dangerous as the stupid drivers on the roads.

When I rode a crotch rocket, I was proud when Harley riders called it a "Rice Burner". I would always reply back "Yeah, and it burns the sh!t out of that rice too. What does yours do... burn oil, or leak it?".

I have a colleague with a 2004 Harley Sportster. It's already leaking oil.

this is what i like ... i went to the local harley shop and they sell suzuki bikes there ... and you can get just as much bike as a harley for 1/2 the cost ... i saw a 40,000 harley fatboy and then there was a suzuki bike just as big and just as nice for about 13,000 they were brand new yes i know you pay for the name and stuff ...

but i would like to get a bike to help out with some gas milage when i travel across town and short trips out of town

To help out out on gas? If you pay a month for the bike and some liability insurance than that may be more than just putting in gas in your ride, no? Same thing with Hybrids. In the very long run you'll win verse gas prices, but to drop a monthly payment or drop down payment for a hybrid vehicle to beat gas, isn't worth it until gas is like over $5 gal, I think.

There was an article about a year ago that compared a Honda Civic to a Toyota Prius. If you drive the average 12k miles per year, it would take almost 12 years to justify the additional cost of the Prius.

The motorcycle though, if you get a cheap Honda, or something else that will run forever, you can make out like a bandit. My old CBR600F2 has 25k miles, been totaled, and never broken down in the 7 years its been in my family. The insurance (w/ collision) is $300 a year. It gets 45 mpg.

Don't you have to change the batteries in the Prius something like every 5 years, at a cost of around $30k?

Austin, something like that. But Toyota picks up the tab on the first battery change, after that it's yours.

30k??? That is absolutely unreasonable. I'll just stick to my 18-20 mpg XP'd/SC'd Daily Driver.

The Prius battery is around $3-5k. It should last close to 160k miles. There are reports of them lasting between 100k and 200k miles on average.

The Escape Hybrid has a battery costing $7200!

After coming to this forum many many times a day (NO joke), I am finally close to 1,000!

yea u only have like 20 more time keep those irons hot .. you might get there by the end of the week haha

I swear drummerboy had like 1100 posts last month...!

Dude, I am a post whore...

Only 3 months ago, I hit 1,000 and now, I'm creeping up on 2,000! I guess it's all those Q's I was asking about top swaps and cam installs and such.

NO WONDER! If I post one time or five times on the same topic, my post count stays at whatever number it is at on that post. I should be at like 2500 by now, but my posts stay stagnant.

Just think I am an idiot now. If I post a new post, then all the other posts go up to the highest post count. So if I look back at an old post say 746, it will actually say 993. Right?

i dont know i think drummerboy is paying someone for his post count.. haha

I believe it! I became a member on April 13, 2006, Drummer April 30, 2006. I see him on here a lot, don't get me wrong. But I feel I am on this thing more than I breathe air during the day. I post more than a whore. His 1775 to my 995 is disproportionate. That's my rant for today!

Yeah, but you never posted for the first six months. I registered the same month as you... but never remember reading any posts from or by you until December-ish of this past year. I've been posting consistently since day one! And I get on here at least 5 times per day, especially now that school is out, and I have more time!

I guess I'm just a posting fool, which is one step above post-whore!

haha. yeah I do most of my work on or by a computer so I stop in quite often. I make rounds on clubxx too, but its impossible to keep up on it like you can with gpnet, not to mention the incredible lack of respect and straight-forward information. classifieds are the only good thing over there. and sometimes to try to get an answer to strange questions.

drummerboy is a gpnet machine.

You win Drummer! But I just hit 1,000 and going to catch you!!!

Nice work, reaching that milestone! Only 784 until you've caught up with me!

I'm slow, but keeping the pace. You buncha pansy's.

im trying!!!

here is another chance to be a whore! so i did it!

whore spot FTW!!! haha

lol i have 5000+ on my gaming clans forums.... but I'm also the "official forum whore" there so what else could you expect

Me = post whore

hey, I resemble that remark!

Do to the direction this thread went it is now locked.
