New to the Forum, Not so new to the cars...
Hey,
The name is Pete. I'm 19 grew up in the burbs but spend most of my time over in NE MPLS. A few of my buddies have DSM's but i never have and never thought that i would. I just bought a 92 Talon TSI AWD. It's an auto and it is having trans problems and everyone i've talked to thinks i should convert it to a manual but i think not. I have 6 cars and just sold my bike. I enjoy working on cars and have pretty heavily for the past 5 years or so and if anyone needs a hand or needs a tool let me know.
Late
Pete

Yeah. Two more people at the house, aside from Pete McSkeet, have gotten DSMs and there's probably gunna be another one. Sadly they chose the worst time, when I have to get out of the game.  |
