Sorry, but I didn't have a camera to snap the car.

Just wanted to share an experience.</TD></TR></TABLE>

I remeber Jason speaking of his Fogs being USDM fogs, when I met him in PA and asked him o.o he is the only person I Have ever heard of having USDM fogs, that and the few times Jon spoke of seeing them on the streets

WOW, lots of pages that I had to catch up on, and now officially apart of the squad! haha. Well Friday was a VERY long *** day.

Woke up at 3:30a.m. ate breakfast, and got on a bus to go to MEPS. Was there for a long *** time, got my physical and ****, at around 12 I was just about done, had lunch, took another test, took care of the final paperwork, and at around 3:45p.m. I was officially Pvt. Smith!

From there I left to camp Pendleton with my dads wife who went down to MEPS in uniform to see my swearing in ceremony. Went down to see my dad, and his whole battalion was there to congratulate me, and warmed me up to BCT, and let me hold an m16a2 rifle. They are surprisingly light from what I was expecting.

My official orders are 15T (UH-60 Helicopter repairer) ship date 20080625, BCT at Ft. Jackson, SC 20080704 for 9wks. and AIT at Ft. Eustis, VA 20080908 for 17wks and 4 days.

SO, thank you Jon (EF_SE) and can't wait to meet you at the EF meet which is around 1 week before I ship out. I will still be active daily on the forum until the meet, once I leave to BCT you will not hear from me that whole time, and then I will be able to get online, use the phone, **** like that.

Well I'm about to spend some time with my gf since she spent the night last night, so I will post up later.

Some people down the street have a nice looking white DX Sedan that hasn't moved in ages. When the weather warms up, I'm gonna go introduce myself and see what's up with it. I have 2 questions about sedans that are probably common knowledge, but I've only owned hatches and wagons... maybe someone can help me real quick.

1. Do all sedans come with power steering?
2. If yes, is it easy to swap a manual steering rack into them? I don't really want power steering.

Thanks!

Hey guys, how's everyone doing?

Clipsed, that's pretty cool about your enlisting experience. I too am looking forward to meeting you and other EFSS at the Griffith Park meet.

jpciii, most sedans came with p/s. The swap is easy if you know your way around a EF chassis.

Hey guys I have a question reguarding to the fuelrail. I just got done installing a y8 manifold and you know the nut that you screw on to tighten the fuel line down to the rail?

Well it's leaking a little bit right there and I'm wondering if there suppose to be a washer in between the nut and line? I know theres one before the line. Or maybe I just dont have it tight enough? I'm just scared to over tighten and break it lol

I think all DX's are non-PS. Could be wrong though, I know mine didn't have it and I'm the 2nd owner.
