    Springs and Dampers?

    Used to have a link somewhere to a table that listed the most common spring rates. H&R, Intrax, Eibach, B&G, RSR, ST, Tanabe, TRD, ect... Maybe someone can dig it up.

    Mookeh eBay short shifter experiences

    ^ Agreed This was one of the best parts I put on my car. It makes so much of a difference, and so cheap! My shifter has 0 side to side movement now, and is much more precise.

    Springs and Dampers?

    I just installed Koni + Eibach about 2 months ago. Will be swapping Eibach's for Whitelines as soon as I can. Would have never bought Eibach's if I knew beforehand they were progressive. Ah well, live and learn.

    Battery issue

    I'm guessing your multimeter can't perform this test, but read the manual just to make sure. That is an inductive style. I would recommend a Fluke DVOM in series. Like this. They aren't cheap though. Mine was around 400$

    Battery issue

    Actually if you go about it in a systematic way it can be quite easy. Unfortunately there are many people that wont touch any electrical.

    Battery issue

    You need to hook an ammeter in series off the battery to look for a parasitic draw when the car is off. Everything has to be off, all lights ect... For reference my car draws around approx .001 amps when off. I was able to watch the draw change when security light would blink on and off. If...

    Mountian Bikes?

    Mountian Bikes?

    I have a Diamondback, I go regularly, it performs well. I wouldn't recommend getting a Trek or similar, you pay extra just for the name, its not worth it. Check out one of your local bike shops and see what they have in stock. Pick their minds, see what they say.
