    why does my friends car die when cold? (not a mustang)

    thanks hissin for the info. i guess i was a little misinformed on the whole problem. the problem is that the car dies out when it is cold and when the brakes are applied. if it is just cold, and he just clutches in, and rolls to a stop, without touching the brakes, it will idle fine. as...

    Found New Brake Caliper Mod!

    i agree with stprorolla on this one. something about those just look a little wierd to me. i think that is has to do with me not being able to get past the shade difference in them. (i know the are the same, just dirty.) i think they may look good with the caps black and "COBRA" in black as...

    Installing '99 up PBR calipers on my '95

    the problem i was having with the passenger side line, was that on the block thing, the hole was not centered on it. so that when i went to put it on, the block was hitting that lip on the pbr calipers that goes around where the banjo bolt goes. it looked as if it needed to be flipped around...

    Does anybody else have this problem?

    installing a tri-ax

    i just picked up a used tri-ax for $50. the guy said that it was on the car for about 50 miles before he took it out, put the stocker in and sold the car. in any case the thing looks brand new. the problem is the thing did not come with any hardware, and i thought i read somewhere that longer...

    Battery relocated under back seat?

    to get the seat up, there are two little clips holding the front of the seat in. run your fingers under the seat and you should feel them. then just poke the clips with like a screwdriver and the seat pops up.
