    95 gt convertible brakes

    I was very tempted to just go and buy new rear calipers, it seemed I'd never get the pistons to turn, I was about to give up until I gave it one last try. That tool might work better with an impact wrench. But yeah, I just loaned one from the local parts store.

    95 gt convertible brakes

    aaahhh brakes. I hate doing brakes... anyways, luckily, our cars don't use torx bolts on the calipers. Are you just changing the pads or putting on new calipers? I just removed the two bolts on the steering knuckle because I was swaping the calipers and didn't need to get at the pads...

    Need input on my big problem....

    This happened to me for a couple weeks last summer. I would start it, it would start kind of normally, then after 3 or 4 seconds idle it would rev to 1500rpm and the engine light would flash a few times, and I had to either drive it or mash the throttle a couple times to get it to come back...

    car was broken into...

    Man that sucks, my car was also broken into in October, but I'm pretty sure the alarm is what saved it. They busted my side quarter window (those bastards are expensive!!!) and managed to pop the lock, but as soon as they opened the door the alarm went off and they must've ran-away, because...

    Wow! Nice ride man! Its surprising how much money you can save on p-i-m-p SUV's compared to the sticker price of new ones with similar features. Take that, rainforest! :D

    FINALLY got a winter "beater"

    Thanks for the props guys, I really enjoy driving it. The only downside I see about it is parts could get really pricey as it gets older and requires maintenance, especially with the ridiculous amount of gadgets and electronics on it. That being said, it could be worse.... could've gotten a...

    FINALLY got a winter "beater"

    I was all over the place. For the longest time I wanted to buy an Audi A4, but then I decided I wanted more space to haul stuff like camping gear and furniture and car parts, then I also considered for a long time to buy an F150, but then couldn't justify the need to have a truck box and guzzle...

    FINALLY got a winter "beater"

    Well, not exactly, but its a new DD for me. I know I know.... I once thought I'd be the last guy to ever own any japanese-made vehicular object, but for some reason I really liked this one since it came-out in 2003, and now I own one. All opinions aside, the fact remains that this thing seems to...

    stock driveshaft diameter

    IIRC both my stock and al. driveshafts were close to the same diameter, maybe 1/4" difference between both, at most. My annoying rubbing issue was caused by a missing pinion snubber and horribly worn-out upper and lower CA bushings which allowed the pinion more room to swing upwards causing the...

    Back again

    I'm sorry to hear about the complications man, thats never an easy situation. On the bright side, congrats on the marriage! I'm glad to hear everything is going well on that side of things. Its always good to look on the bright side of things; dwelling on the negatives won't get you anywhere...

    excessive wheelhop

    I had horribly borderline retarded wheelhopp, then I changed-out my upper and lower CA's (the old bushings were torn to pieces) to MM lowers and FMS uppers, and never ever experienced any kind of wheel hopp since then. The wheehopp was just as bad with or without the quad-shocks installed...
