    Star Trek Movie - Love it? Hate it?

    Amazingly, Rotten Tomatoes rates it phenomenally well, and those people are usually BRUTAL: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/star_trek_11/ I guess I'll have to go see it and see if Kai has gone crazy or not. ;)

    Which Matching brand/model tire for stagger fit?

    That's not what we're talking about. We're talking about an owner on this site who's asking basic questions about staggered wheels. If he's asking questions about rim/tire sizes, he's not going to be well versed in the topics needed to review mixing different brands of tires, compounds and...

    Which Matching brand/model tire for stagger fit?

    The reason you're having problem is the range between the wheels is too big. You should consider a 9" wide wheel for the front or a 9.5" for the rear. Personally I'd go for a 9.5" rear. What you want to do is stay as close to the circumference of the wheel you're replacing. Let's say for...

    How do you fell about buying parts off Ebay for your MK3?

    Because the vast majority of people on e-Bay want it cheap. And if you search the cheap crap on e-Bay, it's really cheap crap. Example: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=96125 $150 turbocharger... Not too many of those in legitimate shops, and not any in any shop I would do...

    Which gasket maker to use Please Help

    You can, but it's not the best thing to do. If you can get a gasket, you should use one.

    Need vacuum line help, sanity fading fast...

    If this is the case, you should post about this "shop" in the Shop Reviews section of the site to save someone the grief. There's no excuse for anyone charging money for work to do that to a customer.
