    Lowering Springs lift?!

    Looks like he has the front struts on the back or some crap, just doesn't look right at all...

    is the manifold worth it?

    So far as I remember it clears the stock oil filter setup (though it's a crap setup and should be replaced if you're serious about your motor). Main issues are it won't clear a big turbo without a spacer (don't remember the largest turbo it can take), you'll need to have a custom downpipe made...

    Lowering Springs lift?!

    Looks like the struts are wrong...and Monroes are absolute garbage.

    is the manifold worth it?

    Not a bad price at all for that...

    ARP studs questions.

    Best advice EVER. Moly lube is nice and sticky so it keeps them in place pretty damn well without risks.

    Lowering Springs lift?!

    Impact gun, um, no... :3d_frown: Especially when the torque for it is only 22 ft-lbs

    T61 Bolt on Turbo by Cx Racing

    Either of those will work fine, but the second one will have to have the divider removed more than likely.

    is this cool or gay? fiberglass headlight naca vent

    Difference is, that one was made because it WORKS.

    Rear ended-now with pics

    Yeah, if you have to sign anything make SURE you know what you're signing. Don't agree to the amount until you're happy you can fix/replace it comfortably.

    gear oil problem

    Take it from someone that's tried royal purple in his tranny...NO. It "feels" smoother, until you try to actually drive the car hard and then the tranny fights you. MT-90 and it actually shifts fast enough to keep up, even with my worn tranny...

    FML I Got Rearended Today!!!

    It comes into play (but you might have to fight). Even at the high quotes you got it wouldn't be totalled, at least in this area as it couldn't be replaced for that much...

    is this cool or gay? fiberglass headlight naca vent

    The restriction is the way the back plate on the stock airbox flows IMHO, so that mod doesn't change anything besides now you're sucking in hot air from the engine bay... Back to the headlight: http://www.revlimiter.net/mods/duct_install.php

    T61 Bolt on Turbo by Cx Racing

    Stock elbow the wastegate basicly empties into a WALL. It's a terrible design, and with a divided housing like on this turbo I don't know how it could possibly flow enough to prevent overboosting. Most aftermarket elbows will be fine as they don't have that wall.

    Don't buy cheap brake pads!!!

    Rotors, calipers, and pads are interchangeable over the years (USDM market only, JDM also had a smaller brake package so YMMV)

    Carbon dating?

    Yep, I remember walking around exact replicas of the 3 ships Columbus cames to America in, I was young and quite a bit shorter than but I had to duck everywhere. Hell, look at the Japanese. Since the introduction of much more meat to their diet that used to consist of mostly rice (this is all...

    Throttle Response, momentary hesitation between throttle and power

    Remove the throttlebody off the car, where you need to put the feeling gauge is obvious once you do (plus it's a bitch to do it on the car IMHO)

    Carbon dating?

    Gimjack brings up a good point, and was something a preacher brought up to me. Everything could have been made "in place" so to speak, and he kinda chuckled and said like in Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Interesting viewpoint...

    Carbon dating?

    Radiocarbon dating is used to date organic matter. It has it's limitations though (items can be contaminated and the results can show they're not as old as they really are, NOT older as some religions claim). If you want to go older, zircon is used because of it's trace amounts of radioactive...
