    how long till fuel goes bad?

    actually i am draining it so i can drop the tank to install the walbro. i'll probably just put enough back to drive to the petrol station then use the rest in my beater.

    Best Catch can For 7m?

    7msuprapower's setup is probably not something you want to emulate. there are two problems there. one is the hose going from the bottom of the can to the accordian. so any oil in the can will be sucked into the intake. but thats not going to matter with his setup anyway because of the cans...

    how long till fuel goes bad?

    my cars been sitting for several months now, waiting on parts and my procrastination. i just realized my tank is full. now i know they sell a gas stabilizer for things that are rarely driven, like boats but i didnt have the foresight to use that. so how long does gas last? if it is bad...

    I can get Arm Rest Refinished to look like Toyotas.

    i just got a leather replacement for mine from www.aapmotorsports.com they only have black and dark grey though. even though i have a grey interior, i dedcided on black. i figure it will look good with the black shifter boot, black e-brake boot, and black seats.

    anyone know where to buy 7MGTE oil filter relocation

    this type of thermostat usually lets about 10% of flow into the cooler when its closed and about 90% to the cooler when open. this pre-warms the oil in the cooler and prevents air pockets. and never opening all the way acts like a relief valve in case the cooler becomes a restriction. edit: i...

    anyone know where to buy 7MGTE oil filter relocation

    now, wouldnt you want the pressure sensor to be hooked up after the cooler? it is my understanding that any cooler has a potential for a pressure drop. also whats wrong with using the tap in the block, where the stock sensor is at?

    tri strut bar fittment issues

    just to be clear. i put this bar on to reduce the TORQUE on the front end. not a side-to side shimmy. not suspension geometry problems in corners. i highly doubt there is a side-to-side shimmy in our car but there is most definately a torque flex. i can feel it every time i step on that...

    tri strut bar fittment issues

    well, i have to disagree with both of you, but semen is closser to the mark. our car has double wishbone front suspension. this means all forces dealing with the front suspension live on the front sub-frame. in a honda, it is totally different. most hondas have macpherson strut front...

    tri strut bar fittment issues

    the cpracing bar is built differently from regular straight bars. by tying each tower to the firewall in a triangular pattern, it does much more to stop chassis flex than the regular style of tying one weak strut tower to anouther weak strut tower. http://www.cpracing.ca/ check it out if...

    tri strut bar fittment issues

    well, i ended up just forcing it on. it actually didnt take much force to do so im no longer worried about it. but once i got it bolted to the towers, i realized there was a small (maybe 1/4") gap from the bar to the firewall, like someone else mentioned here. its not a huge deal as i'll just...

    tri strut bar fittment issues

    well, its now off the stands but i dont see much difference. it was on stands for awhile so i'll let it sit on its wheels for a day to see if it settles at all. it looks like i can force it on but i dont want to do that. i also dont see a problem with the brake booster cable but the egr valve...

    tri strut bar fittment issues

    i just got the CP Racing tri strut bar and it looks awesome. problem is, it doesnt seem to fit. it is about 1/2" too narrow tower to tower. my car is on jack stands right now so maybe thats the problem. anyone else notice their strut towers bowing away from each other when they jack up the...

    Any driveshaft loop better then the rest?

    id buy a mkiii piece if its built nice and beefy like the mk4 one i saw somewhere. it would bolt right up where the center support bearing is and act like a brace for the tranny tunnel. untill then, i will be using the cheap one from summit.

    i wouldn't want to clean that up

    they were testing the myth that a frozen chicken has more destructive force than a thawed chicken. they built this huge gun that shot chickens at like 500 mph to simulate a bird striking an airplane windshield. they sqrewed up the test and had to do it twice, but it was a cool episode anyway.

    How hard to drop the tranny without pulling the engine?

    i dropped the tranny by myself. it was a PITA mostly because i have big hands. i bought 2 super long extentions but only used one of em, plus a 6inch. i made a tray for my jack out of wood. the tranny sits nice and safe on that when i raise and lower it without risk of it slipping off. not...

    Win the lottery - what car to buy tomorrow?

    id get an audi s4 or maybe the s6 depending on the test drive. i like the new bmw's but i would want 4wheel drive for the 9 months of rain we get in seattle every year. i also think it would be fun to have a humvee. not the H2. the H2 is weaksause. but a humvee would be fun to offroad...
