    Funky paint schemes

    The red with the black top were the ones. You wouldn't know until you saw it, but I don't like it as much as the blue/white for some reason. Brandon

    Funky paint schemes

    I can't remember who it was, but someboday a while back was wondering about painting their car from like 2 inches below the windows down one color, and the rest another color. They had generated photo's of it and everything. I think it was black and red. I tried searching for it, but I couldn't...

    hood recall?

    They better honor it. I had an 84 300ZX when I was 16. I took it to a mechanic that specialized in Z's, and he was amazed to see that the fuel injector recall hadn't been done on the car (leaky FI's). So I take it to a Nissan stealership in 97, and got a brand new complete fuel rail assembly on...

    Makeover

    Very nice! Those sharp edges, and the slight dish make those things look a lot bigger than the R's you had on it. It's always nice to see different wheels on stangs. If you ever want to go back, I'll trade you my 18" chrome Cobra R's :D Brandon

    Any RWD economy cars?

    I was going to suggest a 240SX earlier as well, but for one it's not a new car, which was one of your requirements, and second, a 240SX probably isn't going to beat your 24mpg from your truck. I drove a 240SX that had around 40k on it for a while, and if you drive hard it can get as low at...

    Quad shocks question

    I'll change the dampers out, and check the bushings while I'm under there. The rubber bushings on the dampers are all cracked up, and rotting, so I'm sure the rest of them are too. Who has a complete bushing kit for our cars? Brandon edit: I plan on doing UCA's/LCA's soon anyways. They should...

    Quad shocks question

    Thank you. I'll head down there this afternoon. Do you think they could be the cause of the issue I described? Brandon

    Quad shocks question

    Well, a couple weeks ago I decided to put stock springs back on my car, because I had enough of the beating it was giving me. So, I get new shocks/struts at the same time. I swap everything out, only to find that the "Eibach" springs the previous owner installed (along with his Eibach stickers...

    Might be buying my first house this Thursday!!!

    That's great man. Congrats. I got really lucky when I started looking too. Mine was actually the first house we looked at. I had told the wife that I either wanted an oversized 2 car garage, a boat pad, or a gate to the back yard big enough to drive cars/trucks through. My only other demands...

    Another Mustang Wanna Be? .... D.U.W.

    Now that that is cleared up, why don't you tell me what the hell woot! is. Brandon Oh, and that Dodge Charger is 340hp, and almost 400ft./lbs of torque. Not too shabby. Here's the problem I see going on right now. GM, and Dodge both have traditional powerplant designs well over 300hp, but if...

    Any RWD economy cars?

    Definately the hatch. You do know that it is basically the same car as the Focus, right? I'm not sure about the stereo, but it is really clustered in there. I think the stereo may be tied into the climate control much like the RX8. I'm not sure though. Branbon

    Tri-Ax might have shifted it's last shift!!

    I have the B&M ripper, and have had it for a long time. I bang the gears constantly, and have had no problems. It never makes a sound, and I never miss third, or any gear for that matter :shrug: . Brandon

    Where did everyone buy their aftermarket headlights?

    I got the clears with the black ring around the inside of the lense on Ebay. I can't remember what I paid, but $140 sounds about right. They haven't ever given me any problems, but my clear corners I got on there do fog up after a bath...

    Did you guys see "Pinks" Wed night on speedchannel?

    Hey man, what's wrong with Nascar? The entire 5 car team of Roush racing made it into the chase (Kurt Busch, Matt Kenseth, Mark Martin, Carl Edwards, and Greg Biffle). Not bad considering only ten cars get in. Kurt Busch won it last year, and Kenseth won the year before that. It's Ford...

    Did you guys see "Pinks" Wed night on speedchannel?

    I stand corrected and apologize. Me and my buddy both thought it said Ford across the hood in the shot we saw. No wonder I couldn't figure out exactly what model/year it was :rlaugh: Brandon

    Horrible night last night...

    The 3000GT VR4 is a freakin tank! AWD= very heavy/high drivetrain losses. The reason that his is fast has nothing to do with weight. I put half a car (0-60) on a 97 Eclipse turbo in a 99 Infiniti I30 that my wife used to drive. The Mitsu had a fartcan, and an intake too (that had to be good...

    Did you guys see "Pinks" Wed night on speedchannel?

    I've watched a few episodes, and wasn't really into it. That's why I asked if anyone saw this episode. I just caught the end, but it was the closest to the real deal that I have seen. Most of the people on there are owners of speed shops, and are challenging rival owners from their own area...

    Did you guys see "Pinks" Wed night on speedchannel?

    This show just came out this year, and basically, you go online and challenge someone. The directors of the show see what you have, and if they like it, they put you on the show. It's all 1/4 mile. You run a test run, and then get to inspect the other guys car for like 10 minutes, then negotiate...
