    Feels like a new car!!

    I just got my new (for free) MIchelin Pilot Sport All Season Plus tires and added new Bilstein HD struts and shocks from Maximum Motorsports. A year ago I installed H&R Race springs and MM aluminum rack bushings with MM caster camber plates. The car rode nicely and looked good. Now with the...

    My tire story

    Good things like this don't usually happen. A year ago I bought 4 new Goodyear Eagle F1 All Season tires from Tire Rack. Initial impressions were good they looked good and rode well. After some miles they began to wear unevenly and made a lot of noise. I always check the pressure and rotate...

Finally, I was driving last Friday night and the battery light came on again (it was flickering and...

    Alternator question?

    I was driving yesterday in the rain from tropical strom Hannah and the battery light came on and then the ABS light. The wipers slowed and the car wasn't running right, I had to drive "gently". When I got home it wouldn't turn over, no juice. :shrug: I have just hit 70,000 miles and the...

    Was followed by a cop...

    I was going North on Rt.100 towards Pottstown and an unmarked car was following me. He stayed behind me until I got to Rt.724 and then pulled alongside and motioned for me to put the window down. I had been carefully watching my speed and I was thinking WTF does he want? He asked "Is that...

    What is this and why is it there?

    I noticed these behind the rear tires just inside the fender. There is one on each side. It looks like it is just a weight or something... :shrug: Do they need to stay there? They seem to be "extra baggage" and I was considering removing them. What are they for? Does anyone know? ...I...

    How much boost?

    I know that my stock boost gauge pegs past 10 when I go WOT, but how much boost am I actually getting? I have a BF 2.93 and the stock lower. I'm guessing about 13 lbs. Does anyone know what this combo creates? :shrug: Thanks... :beer:

    VW's at the Sonic

    I just got back from the local Walmart (behind the Sonic in Morgantown). The Sonic lot was full of at least 40 or so VW's. Jetta's, Golf's... whatever and one Audi TT. People were hanging out just like the MACA Cobra guys at the Morgantown GTG. I just thought it was funny that no one had...

    Thanks for the help... no more sputtering!!!

    I had posted about my engine sputtering, especially at high rpm. There were some good replies and I took the advice and replaced the FRPS, oil and filter, plugs and the fuel filter. I did this all last Thursday night and drove it yesterday but did not really get on it. Took it out for awhile...

    It wasn't as easy as I thought...

    Who here has changed their own fuel filter? You would think it would be easy. It would be if you could actually get to it. I struggled to get both hands on it to release the clips. What a PIA. I was on my back and the car was pretty high up on jackstands, but my elbows and wrists just don't...

    PA State Troopers

    I just went to court because of a speeding ticket. The PA State Troopers are good folks.:thumbsup: I was ticketed for going 75 in a 55 zone. He clocked me on radar at 78. The Troopper suggested that I go to court and that he might be able to lessen the ticket so that I would not have any...

    Codes, the FRPS... I neep some help!

    OK, I'm trying to debug a sputtering problem and now the "service engine soon" light came on. I checked the code with my SCT Xcal2 and it is PO463 FUL LVL S CIR HI IN...? Earlier today (before the service engine light came on) I filled up with gas and the fuel gauge read empty not full. I turned...

    Help me figure this out... please!

    At full throttle my car sputters. It runs just fine otherwise. Throughout the RPM range it seems to run just fine. Under boost it is fine. When on a roll and I mash it to the floor it sputters at the upper RPM with the stock boost gauge pegged. During normal driving, even aggressive driving...

    Sonic Blue Cobra in Reading/Exeter?

    I saw a nice Cobra this past Friday. It was a Sonic Blue coupe parked in front of a Radio Shack on Perkiomen Ave. in East Reading/Exeter at around 2:00 PM. I never see Cobras on the road and wondered if it was someone from the MACA? :burnout:

    Some fun with a Z06

    This afternoon I was on the PA Tpk and came up on a new black Z06. I pulled alongside at about 75 and gave him a thumbs up. He smiled and took off. I was caught by surprise in 6th gear and had no chance of catching him. A few miles later we were alongside again and he is being a dick giving...

    Would you drive on these?

    These are my worn out Pirelli P Zero Nero's with a little over 30,000 miles. Lots of cord showing on 3 of them. The closest one is a little newer than the others. As you might imagine, driving in the rain had become quite tricky. and here is a shot of the replacements... I...
