Dude really Bro, get a life.Ya, I really just make all this sh*t up for your Entertainment. I wish I could say it all isn't true, and my car is fine. If it were fine, I wouldn't be replying to you, I would be out enjoying the car. Seeing as I haven't been able to drive it for what is it now 3 weeks, and boy let me tell you. I really hate having to drive that car. Dan I don't know what you your issue is with me, but seriously man, I don't have a problem with you. I don't go out of my way to try to put down any of your comments. So why not the same respect to me. You sound like a 5 year old who isn't getting what he wants, so he's going to pout. Trust me I have a two year old, I see it everyday. Is it because you couldn't drive my car..? Dude honestly, if your are so skeptical, don't buy it! I don't give a sh*t. Really, I will offer it to all who asks. I am even willing to put my life on hold to help someone if they need help installing it, or something along those lines. But Dan remember something, it's my show... If I say that I think it maybe a little much to allow you to drive my personal vehicle. My wife won't even drive my car. For you it maybe, just another car, but to me my car is a very personal thing. That is why I offered to allow you to have a system to test for a few days FOR FREE. Nope that wasn't good enough, because you have this burn in your as* to drive my car. Well sorry Captain, it isn't going to happen, nor am I really wanting to enjoy your company, and take you for a ride. That ship sailed about a mile back.
So Dan, either put up or shut up, I'm tired of this childish bickering. So you and the alliance can go find someone else to bully. I am here for the support of others. If I have questions about MY Crossfire, or if there might be something I can do to aid in someone's efforts to solve a problem they are having. That and to give "That a Boy" to whom ever does something new or even improves an existing part. I'm tired of feeling like I'm on the ropes, because I have something, you can't have, or swindle away. Sorry Dan, but My Design, My product, My business, My rules. I wish you the best Sir, and Good Luck.
seriously bro no one is attacking you. you always have this feeling people are. all he said was "bad luck, ha" then you flip out. relax, breath in, breath out, its only the internet.

Dude,
Honestly, don't you think some of the comments made aren't written in an attacking fashion. Whether it be attacking, performance, or integrity. Attacking, may be a strong word. Maybe more like " Putting Down." I don't, and will not put down anyone's efforts on any endeavors that they may come across. I appreciate all who contribute to making this great car, even more great. Mike I appreciate your concerns, However you can't tell me, what I am always feeling. Unless you were in my shoes, and have gone through what I have gone through. You couldn't possible know what I am feeling. It may seem as if I am flipping out for no reason. However, I have been going back and forth with Mr. Root for a long time, and I am just tired of it. I'm sure somewhere in there he means well. Its unprofessional, and I won't be apart of it. Oh ya and Mike don't worry man, after 26 broken bones, I got my breathing down.

Well if anyone can locate a new Tranny Temp/ Hydraulic pressure control board. Or DRB III Scan Tool, so I can erase the DTC's, from my ECU. I re-assembled the tranny, but still can't get it out of fail safe mode. Its Either the DTC errors, or maybe when the harness got all twisted up it shorted out the Tranny Control Module, or possibly a relay somewhere in there. It has been a real heart breaking event. I love driving it, and I haven't been able to drive it for over a month now. So I would love to have this thing fixed already. So we can all meet up for a nice "Hook Up".

Yup or you may want to contact that guy selling chop shop parts on eBay. He may have it especially if he's selling an '05 Crossfire engine.

I read this entire thread and J C. Folks, this isn't a race car and if you guys are racing it like one, you're just as clueless as the 16 year old next door in his rice burner. Drive the car for what it is and know that it is a fun ride that you can manipulate into anything you want. Put it up next to any other muscle car on the street and it will probably get blown away. Put your money into your wallets, so you can afford to pay cash and trash such objects when they do break and finally... fighting with people on the internet is like taking AOL away from a kid in a wheel-chair.
