I guess any excuse to go to the track is a good one. I wouldn't even think of racing a PT Cruiser unless there was $$$$ involved. Modded or not I have always thought they were a POS. :puke: On another note not to hijack but is anyone going to Bradenton this weekend for the streetmachine Nationals. h...

Thats almost what I just paid $73 for the basecoat+ another $100 for the rest of the kit. I probably could use the clear that I got but I don't want to chance it I spent $100 on the PPG shit that I got off ebay so I wasn't going cheap. I thought it was a deal for a namebrand, just turns out it was O...

Painting Cars Sux
I never knew what was involved with a complete, change color paint job :bootyshake: Sure I have painted things with a can of spray paint, so how much harder is a whole car. I knew it would be hard but wasn't prepared for all this BS too. Short/Long story I bought the car last year, Silver SE-V6, 66K...

I think the STS is a glorified Grand Am, they are so small on the inside. I was thinking about getting one and did not like it at all. Rode like shit too. The V series is the same thing except with the V-8 in it. I love our 01 Eldo nice and roomy still classy and Fast. They should've never stopped m...

Coil-over Advantage??
What is the advantage to the coil-over other than the obvious, wider tire? I am running 225 50 ZR16 on it now. I have the lowering springs I think they are 1.5-1.75"for the front with koni's that I haven't installed yet. I want to lower the rear too and do all 4 corners at once. I was looking a...

How Do I Calculate Compression Ratio? As you can see from the formula below, to calculate compression ratio we need to know two things: swept cylinder volume and combustion chamber volume.

The norm is heat produces power, oil is thinner, combustion chambers are hotter etc. This is proven by Nascar, for example, oil and water heaters are hooked up before qualifying. Now tranny fluid heated up isn't good so that may be what the difference is in your situation. Also a trick is to Deeeeep...

Most banks will work with you if you explain the situation to them. Also since she has a lawyer he can c...
