    Another one down the sheeter!

    +1 on the fox only mag. I know they cant run just foxes and they have to push the advertisers but could they give us a break from the multitude of tuner 197's that are out there? There is a mag called the rodders journal that is quarterly, full glossy pics, great shots of awesome cars and lots...

    Emissions Test

    i was told that mt.vernon illinois is testing now but down here in the armpit of illinois we still belch oil and run our cars rich with no cats. if they ever test here then the roads will empty! on a side note, i have a buddy that spits his time between here and bloomington and loves it there.

    Vert top on a 90 notch anybody know about how much?

    i got my top, pads and cables installed for 750. Ive never put one on but from what ive read its not a job for a weekender, take it to a pro that knows what their doing. and remember, the labor will cost the same for a junk top as a good top, check the weight of the material and the rep of the...

    6 disk changer wont eject cd's

    when we first start my GF's 01 it gives a disk error message on the face and wont play or eject the cd's in the head unit. this is the factory 6 disk cd changer head unit on a 01 with the shaker system. Is there a reset button on the thing or maybe a button that will manualy eject the disks?

    Anyone running 17" Pony's?

    i was thinking of getting a set of the Pony R's mainly so i could find some decent tires (really want a set of nitto 555's but cant find them in 16's) but was worried about rubbing. Ive already lowered my car and the 16's tuck in kinda nice.
