    Was running fine, Crank But no Fire.

    I just cut the rubber boot surrounding the wiring at the CPS and cut and spliced in new wires, making sure to separate each wire with heatshrink. They were pretty burnt up and cracked, haven't had a problem since. Sent from my Droid using Tapatalk

    bent UCA...wtf?

    were you trying Takumi's gutter runs? LOL and of course a bent upper control arm will drastically effect camber thus wearing the edge of the tires...leading to blowouts

    It's official, I am the biggest idiot on SM. Help with cooling passage blockage

    just go get one of those long flexible tubes with the little claw on the end. You squeeze down on the plunger on the opposite side of the tube and it opens and closes the claw on the oher end. Know what I'm talking about?

    couple of wheel and tire questions

    well I work at Tires Plus so yeah I balanced them and all that jazz, these rims are PERFECT which is why i just couldn't pass em up. I thought that hubcentric rings were just to match the wheel's bore to car's hub? I'll try to figure out the offset tonight, I was in a hurry putting them on so...

    couple of wheel and tire questions

    ok so I just bought these 17's from a mechanic at work, but they are a little small offset wise...but it was such a good deal that i couldn't pass it up (i.e. 200 bones for all four with brand new tires and tuner lugs included). Anyways they don't sit out as far as I would like so I'm...

    Popping sound when applying brakes...

    i need my car running by tomorrow...

    actually I did have to pull it out in order to tweak the little gears position. Although you technically don't have to pull it all the way out to do this, it is much easier to take off the black plastic cap on the top of it when the CPS is completely removed from the engine.

    i need my car running by tomorrow...

    ok car is back together although it still needs a bit more tweaking I managed to get the timing a bit closer and it's too late to pull the CPS and make the final tweak to it. Thanks all for the help!
