    Damn....3 or 4 grand is depressing. I was hoping for at least 5. One idiot offered me 11 but he's an idiot so the offer was BS :bs: . Hmm well sh#t that is just not the kind of news I wanted to hear

    Miata's - Help me!

    Get it you will love to drive it. I have a 99 miata and the ride was exceptional. You want to pack some power into it? Then just do what I did. Get a Rotary and TWIN TURBO!!!! We built mine up to 800HP in the end. But even before the motor swap it was the funnest little car I'd ever driven.

    Dynomax Ultra Flow's

    I work at Advanced Auto Parts. The Ultra Flows are probably the best sounding muffler from Dynomax but IMO still don't sound all that great. If however you are looking for performance they are wonderful. You can still do better if you want some sound and performance. If you want something...

    Brake rotor life

    I work at Advanced Auto and let me just say that 99% of stock rotor are crap. Don't bother turning then either you are just weakening them and wasting your money. IMO upgrade to some slotted rotors (brembo or baer) just make it a reputable company. Also....they will look much better.

    Repatching tire

    Okay if you cannot understand the stupidity of even trying to drive a mile with that kind of tire damage then you don't deserve to be on the road. As stated above it's about safety. I was driving less than 3 months back near Joplin Missouri and a guy in front of me in a newer Impala had a...

    Repatching tire

    Are you joking? You hit a curb and took a CHUNK out of your sidewall and the tire still is holding air but just has a noticable chunk out of it? Damn I wish I has been that lucky the one time I curbed a tire. Here is a tip however, hitting curbs = bad. The tire is completely worthless now...

    Transmission Swap?

    I have the T45 (98 GT) but I would really like to have a 6 speed. Would the T56 be my best option? I am also planning on putting down some serious power with this car in the future so would that be a good choice? what all will I need to change to swap? Does anyone know how much this is...

    QUICK (should be easy) QUESTION

    You know I had the same problem with mine when I got my car. I didn't really need to use it but it bugged the hell out of me when it wouldnt work. I changed out every fuse I could find then finally I just took it out to inspect it. Funny thing was that it wasn't even wired up. As to why...

    Making the switch from conventional to synthetic oil

    Ok I have heard that BS about not using full synthetic on a low mileage car cause it's supposively bad. Then why do corvettes and other high performing cars come with it straight from the dealer? A full synthetic oil is ALWAYS a good choice as long as you go with a decent brand and not some...

    nitto 555r tire size question?

    It will fit fine on the 9" rim I've seen people do it lot's of times. I wouldn't go much bigger than that though unless you get the 10" rims. But if you get the 10" wheels then I would get 295s.

    Engine rebuild?

    I just rolled over 100,000 miles on the stang and and was wanting to upgrade my engine and figured I'd go through and improve all I could. First of all, I have been told that a 4.6 block from an F150/Explorer is much stronger than the block in my mustang. If true; what makes that so? Would I...

    Heads/Cam?

    Does anyone have the stage 2 heads and camshaft from powerheads.com? They claim you can gain like 100hp or something like that with the stage 2 kit but since I already have upgraded my intake manifold I see no need to get the full kit but I do want to gain some power. What sort of increases...
