    The lesser of two evils.

    Which would you choose and why. Your car is extremely dirty and has been rained on dried multiple times. But no bird droppings. But normally you wash it with Zaino and such. A. Let it be until you can clean it properly. B. Go to one of those drive up places where you put money into it...

    Gauge install instructions.

    Do any of you guys have some instructions for an install of an Electric water temp and oil pressure gauge. I'm totally clueless, but I'm going to start on it on Saturday. These are Autometer gauges. I have these. http://www.corral.net/forums/showthread.php?threadid=232504...

    Lunar gauges and the Speed of Sound pod...

    coming up. I just ordered a couple of Lunar gauges from ebay. A water temp and an oil pressure gauge. After nearly killing my car I really want to know the temps and I figure the oil pressure can't hurt anything. The gauges are pretty cheap on EBAY. Here's the water temp gauge for only...

    EZ Lube is not a place you want to take your car too. (Long)

    I had a little adventure with my car on Sunday. All week long I've been thinking about the cooling system and researching what I can do to keep things cooler. So I've been using the Predator to see what my running temps are like. So on Sunday I was on the freeway and since it was going to be...

    Uploaded Predator and radio interference

    What I'm trying to say is that when I have the Predator built in tune uploaded in my car I get interference or feedback through my speakers. It's like a whin or humming through the speakers. If I tap the brakes then my rear speakers pop. But then it will just go away, then it will come back. I...

    Differential lube change instructions.

    I did a quick search and all I could find was that I need a pump to take out the fluid. What kind of pump would I need? Also I have the specs on how much to put in, but let's say you don't know how much is in there. Can you you just fill it until you hit the fill hole? Thanks.

    Magnaflows vs Magnapacks Vid is up.

    You can skip to the bottom for the link, I'm going to ramble for a bit. :) But my little experiment failed. I really thought that by having it on same tape and everything you would be able to really tell the difference. It's like everybody says, a clip just doesn't do it justice. They almost...

    I love my new gears. 4.30's. (Very longwinded if you are not looking for gears.)

    I got my gears installed at X2C Motorsports today and I was nervouse and worried that I might regret getting them and all that. My first hour of driving which consisted on traffic and putting around were very good. At first it didn't feel like I had gears, because I wasn't really paying...

    Hood shocks are sweet.

    I didn't think I would like them as much as I do, but the first time I had to pop the hood to check my oil I realized how much nicer it is with hood shocks. They are from redlinetuning and they are only about 50 bucks. They lift the hood higer too and they seem like they are pretty strong...

    How do I get Magnapacks?

    I just called Full Line Exhaust and he's never heard of anybody doing what I'm doing. I have a Magnaflow CB and I want to swap out the mufflers for Magnapacks. I know tons of people have done this. The guy acted like it might not work he said something about that I need to check with my...

    I'm doing it. I'm getting 4.30's. :)

    I couldn't for the life of me decide between 4.10's and 4.30's or just leave the 3.73's I have in there. I was fearing the gear for highway driving, but screw it. I didn't want to waste money on 4.10's and it not be a big enough jump from the 3.73's. I was writing down how much of a...

    Magnapacks vs. Magnapacks /w baffles vs Magnaflows

    Magnapacks are louder than regular Magnaflows. Where do the Magnapacks w/ Bassani baffles fit? Are they closer to the Magnapacks or are they closer in sound output to the regular Magnaflows? I ask because I have Magnaflows and I want to put in Magnapacks, but that's just a ticket waiting to...

    My tax return is almost here and I have my list ready.

    I'm getting mm coil-overs, mm IRS crossmember, mm bushings, steeda differential bushings or KB aluminum bushings, gears (i'm leaning towards 4.30's, i currently have 3.73's), and possibly add in some magnapacks. Maybe some upgraded half shafts with some ET streets to go along with it. I...

    If my highway mpg is high and city mpg is low?

    Is it me or is something wrong with my car? I get around 15 in the city and today I filled up my tank, drove 70 miles to race the 1/4 mile. I took 4 trips down the track and I drove 70 miles back and filled up again. To my surprise I was at 24.6 mpg. I know I asked this before. I'm not...

    I broke or stripped the bolt that connects the tri-ax to tranny.

    I removed the shifter to put in some tranny fluid and when I reinstalled the shifter I must have put too much torque or something, because now it just spins in place. Do you think it's just stripped or is it broke? Also should I call steeda for a new bolt or can I buy one at the store? Thanks.

    I need a little tech about clutch/transmissions.

    I've read howstuffworks.com and I'm understanding things a little better. So let's say you have a clutch quadrant and firewall adjuster installed with a stock cable. What would be the lesser of two evils? If you were to adjust it to tight and there was constant pressure on the TOB and I'm...

    I'm bummed. I need a new front bumper. I need to vent!

    [self pity] Right now I really don't like my car. It's not perfect anymore. I want to get rid of it now. I wish someone would steal it. My stupid ass didn't pull the parking brake 100% of the way up and it rolled into my cousin's truck. So now I have a big gash on the bumper and headlights...

    Getting rotors turned. Where in the LA area?

    My brakes need to be changed and I'm not sure if I need to turn the rotors. If I do where do you guys suggest. Is pep boys and those places just as good or should I go somewhere else? Thanks

    I changed my plugs and two of them were screwed up.

    I figure most of you guys here have already changed your plugs but if you haven't go check out the thread I started. I wouldn't want any of you guys to have this happen to you. http://www.svtperformance.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=72114

    I changed my plugs today and I was shocked to find what I did!

    I'm so glad I did this. The last two plugs on either side, right next to the firewall were screwed up big time. They had rust, water, and what looks like wet sand. WTF! If you guys haven't changed your stock plugs I suggest doing it just for the peace of mind. I've only washed my engine a few...
