Ready for some new drag radials, in need of your discount code... Thanks man

Well I finally did it... Brand new gen2 TVS, 3" upper only, 60lb inj, vmp bap, vmp3000 maf, and a Lfp sbtb. Thought I'd keep it simple to start with. At least, till I can afford to go return/ e85. So for now I just needed enough power to beat a particular friend of mine with an antique kb2.2...

So a little back ground. My abs light started coming on intermittently last year, but for the last several months it comes on within minutes or even seconds of starting the car. It's not been a big deal really since I always manually turn off traction control. I know with the abs light on...

This was a couple weeks ago. I had stopped at a gas station on my way to get the cobra inspected. As I was walking out I hear this mean ass lopey idle coming from a gto sitting at the pumps. Then I see the owner, and it's someone i know. So I pull around and start talkn. He says it's an ls1 with...

I was wondering how much power can the stock 10 spline input shaft handle safely? I know alot depends on driving style, but is there a actual threshold for them? The reason I'm asking is because I'll be replacing my stock clutch after 85k miles, and I'm 99% sure I'm going to splurge on an rxt...

Alright I'm finally ready to buy an actual catback. Just can't decide between the two. Always loved the stingers, but just couldn't justify the price. So I thought I made my mind up on SLP's LM2's, but found Summit Racing is selling the stingers for 667.95. I believe the LM2's are 649.95...

I was looking into buying an ST model to replace my dd, but I couldn't find any info on the turbo in particular. Such as make, size, stock boost#'s. Not that it matters as I'm pretty well sold on the car already. Just curious though if anyone had some info. On another note, how easy would it...

Ok so on my way home from work I come across a biker that wont let me pass him.(4 lane city road) Every time I switch lanes to go by he speeds up. After the second time he does this I realize this is the same biker that has done this to me before. Never knew why, but 3 or 4 weeks earlier on my...

Just wondering what is the maximum safe IAT we should be seeing is? The reason I ask is because I had to replace my old jlt cai with the stock tube minus the air box(basically a RAI w/ stock parts), and I was doing some data logging to record the difference. While sitting at the drive tru...

Tried to get an alignment after I did my H&R race springs, but the tech said I needed an eccentric bolt to adjust the camber on the rear wheels. I guess there is supposed to be one according to him, but said he couldn't find it... First off I don't know what this is? Second is why...

I'm tryn to get all of us in the KC area together to head up to Des Moines, June 16th. The Omaha/DM guys have been puttn' on this cruise for a while. Sounded like fun so I thought we could join them. I know I spoke to a couple of you guys that were interested already this winter. The rest of...

Just like the title says. How much have you payed to replace a head gasket, and how many hours do you tipically get billed for??? Need this done. Just tryn to prepare myself before I call a local speed shop.

How do you remove this plug on the driver side of the engine block. I was reading a how to on it. Which said to use a 17mm socket. Well it's not a nut, but a #8 allen head fits inside of it. Are there any special tools I could use to loosen the plug. Has anyone else come across this problem...

Can't get my rear springs out!!! I'm tryn to install some H&R Race springs(fronts are done), but I can't get the A arm to lower enough for them to drop out. Looks to me like there are 3 points on the A arm holding it up correct? I have 2 of them disconnected, the 3rd is where the sway bar...

Ok so I just received my used oil cooler in the mail today. Open the box and there is a milky oily substance seeping out of it. The packaging paper is stained with this substance as well. The whole reason I ordered a new oil cooler is because mine is damaged and was mixing the oil and...
