    Focused attack on any computer can take it out. BUHAHAHAHAHAH, um, NO. Keep thinking that, but it's wrong.

    linux thread???

    Had a Gentoo box, but it died (was a box put together with old parts, so it's flakey). Fun experience having to learn as I didn't care for any of the easy installers that are like Windows...

    Coil overs too stiff? Less traction from a roll?

    Comes down to a lot of variables. Road condition, weight of the car (if you have a big turbo and big intercooler, spare tires, amp, subwoofer...you get the idea), wheel and tire combo, right height, etc Can throw em on and see how they are, if they suck, replace the springs. On the...

    HID Bulbs & Headlight Housing

    Fixed that for yah :D But yeah, might have to notch the metal piece that holds the hinge of the headlight assembly. If it's not enough, might have to notch the radiator support under it, but doubt it. More than likely will need to cut/grind a bit on the composite section (it's fiberglass...

    HID Bulbs & Headlight Housing

    OK guys. I think I can make them in such a way that you wouldn't have to cut anything major (maybe a little grinding on the plastic bracket piece behind the headlight), but it requires special bulbs. Going with normal bulbs looks like you'll have to notch the metal bracket behind the...

    Cams ok, vacuum help needed

    Exactly, there is no way they could have been that bent and not done TERRIBLE damage to the head.

    Cams ok, vacuum help needed

    Did you remove the timing belt first? Did you loosen the caps in the order you're supposed to?

    Cams ok, vacuum help needed

    Are you sure they're bent? Only way to be sure is to check runout per the TSRM.

    Don't think so on the doors, but you have to pop the targa as it's glass.

    strut bars

    If you have a "wet noodle" try retorquing your subframe bolts and checking bushings everywhere. Nobody ever checks the subframe bolts (much like the bolts that hold the seats down should be checked as well) and mine were VERY loose. Makes a world of difference. The only issue is the...

    Where did you put your kill switch?

    Think it was Escalades that the security system and key was matched to the ECU...so thieves just swapped ECU's and drove away... Also, you're not going to beat a tow truck if they REALLY want your car ;)

    Moving back in with the parents to save money?

    Crap, also forgot, do not factor in "food" as a savings...unless you want to piss off your folks.

    Where did you put your kill switch?

    Most kill switches are easily defeated, i.e. they interupt the starter when you could just push start the car. Also, most are in a hidden but easily accessible place, so easy to find. Best place is in plain sight, but disguised. I myself don't run one as I used to run one on my truck...

    Moving back in with the parents to save money?

    Don't get the same cash back bonuses, points, etc with a debit card. Plus, the reason the credit card companies do it because they know people slip up and get into debt. Only reason the business model works. People that pay off their balance every month are people the CC companies HATE...
