They have shop manuals on CD.. lots of shops use them, saves them from having tons of Fiche and microfilmers laying around.

07-13-2002, 02:38 PM

how fast is your internet connection? cause if you can put it up on a ftp server off your HD for like a night, considering you have a fast upload speed, a few of us can grab it

ChrisCantSkate

07-13-2002, 02:38 PM

and pay you of course

Hey Stefan, send me a PM if you're hosting it :cool:

ebpda9

07-14-2002, 09:34 PM

any good servers ? i'll try installing sambar tommorow morning and the download will be a http, cause i havea router and i can't use ftp upload. i'll give you more details tommorow night. ohhh wait i'm dropping my car tommorow so i guess it will be tuesday night. i'm too drunk now to do something.

juvenile

07-14-2002, 11:23 PM

I have an ftp taht I can host in on for a few days. My upload isn't the best though.
But I have a way to fake it without burning.
It's a small program ~1 mb that will load the cue file and make a fake clone cd of it. It'll be a separate drive in explorer. Works all the time.
This is for those who don't want to burn this.

Anyways...let me know if you need any of my services

ebpda9

07-15-2002, 06:11 AM

thanks for the offer, but if i remeber well you don't have port 21 for ftp, and my router does not understand ftp commands for other than port 21. i'll do it with sambar server and http.

juvenile

07-15-2002, 05:27 PM

ummm...ahhhh I actually run my ftp on nothing but 21

ebpda9

07-17-2002, 09:16 PM

yeah i got the cd's and the program runs nice but i really don't have time to put it on the ftp for sharing

mt.biker

07-17-2002, 09:55 PM

dude well that just sucks, i was getting all worked up over the idea of all the info on my acura!!
well if you dont want to share it with us is there anyone else who has access to this? i will be able to host it on a 1.5mb/s connection if someone is kind enough to share it with me. I also dont mind shipping coppies to people as i have access to a UPS machine (even though i'm not a ups fan they'll have to do).

anyone up for some cheap software?

ebpda9

07-17-2002, 10:09 PM

lol

i'm working on my car rigt now and the damn thing should be ready by now but i had one freakin screw that broke on me, and i won't have it available until tommorow morning or friday. that's all i freakin need to get my car off the jackstands.

Save the ISO image somewhere.. Itll make it easier to burn..

juvenile

07-18-2002, 09:18 AM

Yeah...it's really easy to make an iso of it. That's what I thought you would do in the first place. It's really easy, and doesn't require you to be there the whole time.

ebpda9

07-18-2002, 09:14 PM
