    mid pipe replace or just cat?

    One of my cats is going bad and keeps tripping a code. Granted, it could be an O2 sensor, but it's lowered and last time it was on the lift, it looked dented pretty good and smells bad when I come to a stop. So, should I just replace the cat with a new one (weld-in) or replace the whole pipe...

    Rotating offsets?

    Rotating staggered rims? Did a search and couldn't find anything. Car is a DD but was thinking about getting 17x9 up front with 17x10.5s in rear. When it comes time to rotate the tires, do they just swap sides and rebalance or is this just a bad idea for a DD?

    Strange electrical problem

    When I returned to my car in the evening, the car wouldn't start. Lights were dim, and the starter wouldn't turn. Just the quick clicking noises. Had a friend try to jump it, didn't work. Took the battery to Autozone and they said it was at half capacity, chargeable. Came back, but unlike when...

    Hood liner = brittle??

    I was about to do the postban mod and acquired the little interior pin removal tool to help out with the plastic pins that hold it up. I got to the second one, and as I try to create an opening in which I can slide the tool under, my hood liner is just flaking off. Literally. Is this normal...
