    Need new front brakes, any reason not to get Cobra brakes?

    I feel like a huge dumba$$, I just spent $180 this weekend on stock replacement brake parts to fix everything I messed up last summer when I wrecked my car......wish I knew the aftermarket brakes could be had for that cheap before I did the spending!! :(

    Polishing an Intake....

    Could you use a high speed electric die grinder (small handheld one) with different grit wheels to do this? If you can it would save you tons of time and agony. I was thinking of doing this myself, think that method would work? And oh yea, why would you use stripper to take the powder coating...

    E7 Porting Question

    3 angle job was what I was going to have done. I don't know what he'll charge for anything more, I'll have to find out. But I am running 120lb seat pressure valve springs. Three of them were closer to 130 so I had those ground down a little and put small shims on the few that were a tad less...

    E7 Porting Question

    I'm having a shop port my stock E7's, my question is, do I HAVE to get new valves, or can I reuse the stock ones? I'm on an extreme budget here. If anyone could point me to some cheap valves that would be good too.

    NO CATS TO HIGH FLOW CATS

    yea I'm working on getting a sound clip of my car now that I have the catted H on it but haven't got the laptop out there yet. I'll tell you this though, it sounds mean still!!! If you listen to the soundclips in my sig. that was with no cats. With cats it's about 4 times quieter, but the...

    bad mpg?

    yea if all you have done is some exhaust you either have something seriously wrong with your car or your gauge is wrong. If you're going through that much fuel you must notice it leaking out on the ground or the car running horrible. Check the ground for fuel, then check again, I don't know...

    I go to college at RIT, I'm in Ilion for 3 months doing an internship. Bored out of my mind :sleep: I have my car up here now (a week earlier than expected just to drive it through snow), so I'm looking for something to do. I'll be putting on my upper and lower intake as soon as it comes...

    Strange Cooling Problem, Please Help....

    You should remove the plug next to it, the easiest way to do it is to take all four plugs out of one side and do all the compression tests, put them back on, and do the same on the other side. Also, when you're watching your coolant bubble, is this before or after the thermostat opens up?....or...

    Strange Cooling Problem, Please Help....

    oh yea, one more thing while i'm thinking about it. Take your radiator cap off ( it needs to be pretty cool). Go boil some water and put the cap in it. You should be able to see the cap's spring recoil due to the heat. If it doesn't move, your cap is bad, go buy a quality Stant cap.

    Strange Cooling Problem, Please Help....

    ok, i was reading through your initial posts again, and by compression test I assume it was a cylinder compression test to see if you had communication between the combustion chamber and the water jacket? When you did this, did you just take one plug out at a time or did you also pull an...

    Strange Cooling Problem, Please Help....

    my uncle owns a NAPA and even he will attest to the overall ****tiness of NAPA remanufactured pumps. They often have pinholes or problems with priming themselves. Go get yourself an aftermarket pump if you find out the pump is causing the problems. In my opinon I would say the pump or...

    NO CATS TO HIGH FLOW CATS

    Yea I'm a HUGE fan of the high flow catted H. The sound is awsome and the torque I'm getting was instantly noticable. I bought the H pipe from a canadian shop that sells directly to you and ships it from callifornia. You pay no taxes and no shipping. If you're interested let me know, if you...

    can't keep it on the road

    yea I'm saving $$$ for the worst. The first and most obvious was the bent axle, pushed in strut tower, and rims ripped right off the car. It was checked for bent frame, and fortunately it's straight. It was aligned just fine, but I think that as you said, the front end is spooky. I"ll get...
