There new (renters) I Haven't even met them yet.It's like this though.I'm not breaking any law and the cops need to show up when called...Those neighbors make all kinds of noise on their own yelling screaming fighting squealing tires etc.I don't call cops when they do that.Or other neighbor has a concert party across street or other guy down the road on other side of me about 5 houses down revs up his stock car.I live next to a bar and music plays till 1am and I'm still not a douche to call cops on anyone.If I get a 3rd call either I'm gonna put my car by their house on the corner of my property and rev it up good and loud for some time or take my "reapers doom" 100x pack of m16 firecrackers stringed together and light it up on their doorstep.

One week from d day...... Got the new fuel lines in This is the cables for the front gonne be in 4 corners with the front around the bumper..... they are 5/16 cables And a little more cleaning out and check everything out and double check it will be ready to wreck..... also found out the rear brake line is leaking may try to fix it or just eliminate the rear brakes or just leave it be not sure yet depends on how much time i have next week..... whats the pros and cons for eliminating the rear brakes

its easier to whip your car around with only front brakes but makes it harder to stop your rear wheels from spinning thus making it easier to tear out your tranny... definately do something tho, brake fluid is very flamable
