damnit should i just patch the tire? this is the first flat tire i have had where i want to fix the tire instead of replacing it.. it still has tread and the car's being sold in a few days so upgrading tire to a summer tire just isn't justified

do those 8$ kragen/advanced auto parts tire kits work?

I know this seems random but if you ever find yourself in a position to drink and drive don't. I had to wake up at 330 this morning to go pick up one of my marines who was in a DUI accident. As I pulled up on scene the driver (another marine) was was being hauled off to jail while my student was still talking to the police. Thank God neither one of them was killed and that they hit a tree and not someone else. I kept running the scenario over in my head the entire way (based on the vague info i had at the time) and luckily everyone was alright.

dont patch it plug it its way easier and u dont have to dismount the tire. I did it once b4 when i first got the S and it held up fine even @145mph. the thing looks like a skinny slim jim(the one you eat) and u stick it in the whole and cut off the remainder

i got it internally patched professionally for 20$, holds perfectly
the gash was pretty big when the nail was removed. it wasn't really a nail, more like a spike. it was ~ 3mm in width and the gash where the head dug in it was probably 5mm. pretty large hole oh well not my problem soon enough.

sad.. I was close to getting a 03 red s2000 with a hardtop but since it had 132k miles and nissan dealership(trade-in) wouldn't go lower then $11k. plus it had a dent around the driver side sideskirt area. also I think they replaced the bumper and hood, when you look under the car they got some paint all over the place

just rambling..

Transforms 3 is the ****! Saw it in IMAX over the weekend and I can't say enough good things about the movie. Me and my friends came to the consensus that it's actually better then the first one!

Takes very little time, with someone who has done it before it will take less then 1hr. This is assuming you have an 01+ and don't need to run wires and install switch for defrost.

Looks hot with the canards and lip, not so much w/o the lip.
