Hi, I'm new. I found your site via google. I been on B.F.C for a few months and thought I might look for other sites. I know I don't have a TI but we have parts
that will swap out and I am fond of your cars.

I add a pic for signature, but it didn't show up in post. Do I have to have so many posts before it will show up.

I don't believe you should have any restriction on signatures.

It would look better if I could actually drive it for more than a mile a time. My tranny is shot. I was trying to keep up with a charger on the interstate last weekend and I guess I overheated it. It works great driving back and forth to work now which is only about a mile away, but as soon as I go more than 10 miles and try to take off again Its like I'm neutral dropping it. Completely my fault, stupidest thing I've ever done. Word to the wise, never hit that a/m switch running 105mph.

So right now i'm shopping around for manual trannys to replace my auto.

Here's a little better pic. The only upgrade would be Brembo OEM rotors on the front. I can't manage to get past the maintenance issues to make any performance or appearance upgrades right now.
