This is the link to the actual bill. HOORAY! Gun registration! Doesn't sound like anything I can imagine an armed assailant that would break into my house would go through before "acquiring" his firearm. To bad my firearm would be locked in a safe where I couldn't use it quickly. Writing my...
I bought some used gears on ebay (3.73), they were chipped and messed up apparently, and whine like you wouldn't believe, which I'm sure could be the installation. I am not sure which to blame, but I must get these fixed. Common sense for the most part tells me get new gears and go to a trusted...
Any of you have one? As with any thing I can find rave reviews, and tons saying it is trash. For almost 1000 bucks I want something I can truly trust (not that I can't trust my cheaper ones). The jeweler tried to sell me one last night, but I wanted to do some research first. All inputs...
Seems like small fish here, but it was fun.
This morning I had just changed my tune for me to drive (I turn the timing down and keep traction on when my wife is driving it). As soon as I pull out of the lot I was in I see a C4 vette one car ahead of me. He ends up going the same way I am...
My dad is retired Air Force and has done government contracting since he got out. He is now losing his job with Lockheed Martin and is looking for what will hopefully be a little more stable for him. For some reason he thinks one of his best choices is to be a Certified Nurses Assistant. He...
I have searched on multiple forums, and the net and am not finding any good answers. I have a Zex dry kit that I am hoping to run a 125 shot on. I am wondering if my stock fuel system is up to this task, ie the fuel pump and injectors. I was told with a tune, which I plan on getting, I could...
Is it Illegal to have lights that look like Police car lights? A guy in my complex has an older f150 with large chrome rims that has turn signals with white flashing lights. These lights when they are on look just like an unmarked police vehicle does, but they are only in the front of his...
I am slightly spoiled by traveling around the world in pretty much a private jet (I'm a crew chief on a heavy acft). When I have to fly commercial I always without fail get friggin searched. The long drawn out hand search and pat down. I thought if I was on orders I was not to be searched...
Long story short, I tried to put in my QA1 k-member and once it was in, the steering shaft wouldn't reach the rack. It was bumping against my long tubes (it goes between them). Any one else have this problem? Suggestions?
Here is a video from the AP showing an officer yelling at this kid. I am sure this does happen some places but the guy is a real ass. I thought I read a news article that someone went to jail for video taping an officer that pulled him over. Is it legal for this kid to tape this, and would he...
Well, luckily I didn't have to trade in the Mustang, I bought a Charger R/T on sunday. I think its pretty friggin bad for car its size. Its got a lifetime warranty on the power train and really safe for the wife and the kid, but its got some balls for traffic. I just went on my honeymoon in...
Short version: How much power will a stock clutch hold (02 GT)?
Long version: I am about to put on my nitrous kit (finally). I do not know if my car has a stock clutch as I am the 3rd owner, but everyone who drives it asks "what kind of clutch is in this?" Apparently it has a fairly heavy...
I know this could/should go in the mustang forum, but not many people look there, plus its probably applicable to any motor.
Would there be any gain in stroking a motor that is going to end up with stock heads/cams on it? I ask because as with most people cash flow is limited and I want to...
A while back the battery on my girlfriends car (a 2000 Mazda Protege) started just dying on occasion for no reason. We took it to a shop and they replaced the battery and alternator. It worked for a while then started doing it again, but it was under warranty. We played this little game for...
Sorry, I tried to do a search but only found back tire stuff. What is the largest I can go without scraping? I have a set of 265's I got really cheap and want to put them on the front. Thanks.
Went to the 1/8 mile for the "keep it at the track not on the street" deal hosted by the cops last night. My most worthy opponents to note were a Mach, which beat me, two LS1 powered Firebirds which I beat (surprising to me, but I can hook up now) and an EVO VII which was running better times...
Here is my dyno sheet. I am running very rich it shows and want a predator, that will come soon I guess. When I scanned it, the numbers at the bottom got cut off they are 261 HP and 294 TQ. Are these pretty good numbers considering the mods in my sig?
So a guy I know has a 350Z, I think its stock. He raced a buddy of mine that has way more suspension stuff but almost no motor mods and beat him by just a little. So since his 30 some grand car could beat "those new mustangs" (yeah, my car is 4 years old whatever). So tonight I drove my car to...
I was driving across the Gandy Bridge from Tampa the other day and almost hit a ladder that had fallen off of a work truck. It had been run over once I think because all the rungs were crushed in. I tried to call Tampa PD to tell them but could not get through. I didn't think it was an...
Brake Failure
My new years resolution is to stop ruining my car. But I need help. My brake pedal travels to the floor! :cuss: Don't know what the deal is. My fluid is still full. I had accidently stalled it with the e-brake on, think that could have anything to do with it? It still...
Am I the only one NOT holding out for gas prices to come down? Why do so many people think it's going to? I am not talking about the rise from the hurricane, just the regular rises. This is something that I have noticed for some time, it just came to a head now that people see it at three...
