My '84 RX7 has a single stage paint with no clearcoat and the paint is still in really good shape, but it gets oxidized fairly quickly. Normally I get some rubbing compound and waste an entire day trying to get rid of the oxidized paint. I have a claybar now and I'm wondering if it would be...
We have a 2003 Mach 1 with around 115k miles. It's developed a strange overheating issue. When the AC is on, the water temp starts to rise, but as soon as it's turned off, everything returns to normal.

-thermostat is working properly
-coolant level is fine...
Like the title says, I'm looking to buy an HD camera (for my brother's birthday) and was wondering what you people have? Good sound recording is paramount. I'd also like one with a fairly wide (or adjustable) FOV so it can be mounted in a car interior to record that way.

The new V6 stang is looking pretty solid honestly. An honest 305hp + 30mpg on the highway, and it sounds pretty damn good to me:

So I'm wanting to join some branch of the armed forces after college to, hopefully, become a pilot. I'm really in the dark about it, and I would rather not talk to a recruiter about it because they will obviously have their own agenda. I'm 2 years away from my bachelors in architecture, and 4...
Try to keep in mind this is entirely CGI:

During the first part I thought it would just be a bit of 'showing off' of the creators with the close-ups on the various objects and textures. But it is so much more than that. One of the better things I've seen...
I remember a user Nazman had a pretty nasty n/a cobra. I love the way a highly built n/a modular sounds, but I rarely see them. So if you've got vids, post them up! I may do a built all motor 4.6, depending on a few things, in the next year. :beer::rockon:
Well the Porsche thread went pretty well it seems, so lets post all the pics you can find of raging bulls.
Altier Motive: I'm going to be drawing a highly rendered Gallardo in pencil/prismacolor to give to someone for Christmas, so I'm looking for a really good shot of a Gallardo (lp-560-4...
Seems like there is a lot of classic ford muscle being posted around here, so I thought I'd post up my brothers 1967 Coupe.
It's still very much a work in progress, but the engine is nearly done (for now)

Well it was raining all day, and just as the sun began to set, the clouds cleared so I grabbed my 50mm prime and ran out to take pics. The light was spectacular.
Obviously I wasn't going for technically perfect shots, but more artistic ones. I love them...
Anyone here goin to the Climb this year? I went last year and am leaving friday to go again! There is going to be an 800hp Ford Fiesta as well as the ever conquering Suzuki XL7 Monster. Can't wait! :banana:
Due to some tire issues, I had to take my new(er) wheels off my RX7 and was thinking about painting them while they are down.
So if anyone would like to take a stab at it, I want the inside of the wheel to be a sort of dark grey and the lip to remain chrome.

I haven't laughed that hard in a long time. Better than Fast and Furious by far.
It's old, but I did a search and it seemingly hasn't been posted...
Just got some new wheels for my 7, thought I'd share some pics. Resized through myspace, so the quality sucks something awful.

I'm wanting to get a new gun, here are the details. First of all, I own a model 1894 Winchester 30/30 that i like alot. I don't hunt, just target shoot to hone my accuracy and have fun/take frustration out on inanimate objects. Like I said, I like the 30/30, but it has severely limited range...
The pp ranges from mild to wild, but I was going for the unnatural look on some of them. Tell me what you think.

My streamline-modified car. Perhaps a bit "ambitious but rubbish." :P
Under all the sleek streamlining is my bone stock 1994 Integra LS daily driver. :mrgreen:
The streamlining made a measurable difference in the drag coefficient, and after the numbers are...
