Working days are 12 hours. Only reason I'm working this schedule (and job) is because the pay is pretty good for a single 23 yo with no other obligations except car payments + misc. bills.

Also helps that I get a bonus for night shift.

6 days off?
I would have a hard time going back after a weekend line that.

I took my sabbatical back in February and went to Hawaii... REALLY didn't want to go back after that.

I bought an anarchy motive shift knob for my AUTO (Gasp!) FRS a while back. It came with a thread adapter that fits it. The thread adapter works, except it sits too high. If I attach the boot it stretches it and eventually pops off. I need a thread adapter that sits it lower so the boot isn't stretched. I guess I jut need a longer thread adapter? Who would sell one?

One man's noob is another man's guru
There, I just coined a much needed proverb

Shift knobs for AT ZN6 with boot retainer are hard to come by. The one you got there is made for MT, isn't it?
I know Raceseng has a thread adapter with boot retainer for their knobs to fit AT. That probably won't fit your Anarchy Motive knob, though.

I ended up hacking a boot retainer for my GT86 AT. Story with pics here:

That's weird, I had decided to find my first post in here when I logged on this morning.
Ran into that same problem. I finally found my first post though. It's in the Official Norwegian Thread and it says "Hi, I'm new here" in Norwegian ;-)

@ichitaka05 is there anything you or the boss man can do about this? Or does the problem lie with vBulletin?

I mean, I'm fairly new here, but I'm curious to see what longtime members were like as noobs.

It appears to be a setting, see vBulletin forum

trust me dude. pretty soon you'll wonder how you ever got by working 5 days a week. no more taking a personal day to go to the tag office or bank or whatever. I waste about 3 days a year on that BS.

I already agree with that. Just went to staples, and now I just finished making shipping labels for a few packages. I work in a facility where cellphones are not allowed so I'm basically away from society for 8 hours or 10 hours now.

Ya right.
Even they don't believe it:

"This is not one of those glamorous rumors, where an automotive journalist overhears a private conversation between engineers about a secret project. This, basically, is wild-ass speculation. But if you start looking at the evidence, it's not entirely based on thin air.
According to UK-based outlet Autocar, "representatives from Honda's advanced engineering department are said to have attended a recent S2000 owners' club event in the British Isles—a sign that the firm wants to listen to enthusiasts in order to help it to position the next version of the car accurately​." That's it. That's the foundation for this entire rumor."

I'll get excited when Honda builds an affordable sports car big enough for me. Who else builds one these days? Oh, yeah, Toyobaru.
