    Home depot lip

    LOL, just last year I made mounts for my spoiler on my celica out of 2x4's. Shaped, covered in fiberglass, sanded smooth, and then painted...if I didnt tell you they were 2x4's you never would have known.

    Winner ROTM: August Ryan H. -da89soup

    Thanks for all the kind words about my 86.5 I Think everyone of the NA's entered have their own uniqueness and class. Maybe its that while the turbo guys are deciding on what new performance part to put on, we are deciding what little tweak of the overall car we can do to make it even more...

    Home depot lip

    Well, I knew the issue of durability of 2 sided tape would come up. Ive had one of these on my car for 6 months and up to 110MPH and not one issue with it coming off or loosening up. Actually Suprahero, it looks better up close. The biggest issue Ive had with this stuff is it just doesnt stand...

    Home depot lip

    Ok, I promised to do this writeup a long time ago and finally got the time to do it. This is IMHO the "proper" way to make and install a home depot lip. Im not going to go into too much detail about the materials you need. Im just gonna kinda let the pictures do the talking. Cove base...

    Problems w/ my rear end

    I had a problem with my rear end...but proper diet and less "pushing" cleared it right up! :biglaugh: But seriously, swapping out a rear end isnt the hardest job in the world, but its not the easiest either. Basically anytime you gotta get on your back to fix a problem, its gonna suck. Ive...

    Will a used stock flywheel perform well?

    Resurface it, its not that hard to get done and not expensive or anything. I just replaced a clutch and had the flywheel resurfaced for 35 bucks, the guy did in less than 20 minutes, while I stood there and waited. Trust me, you will regret NOT doing if that the the road you choose.

    (-) Rep

    personally I dont like NickM, his attitude, his views, or how he goes about using supramania....but this is the dumbest idea yet. Its flame bait, it will only backfire on you, and it wont serve any useful purpose. My advice...put him on ignore like I have and get over it! oh...

    Schumacher confirms his retirement

    I wonder if you would still be able to get away with saying that if Ayrton Senna hadnt died. But, he is a great driver in his own right now matter who you compare him too. Ya know the guy will stay around racing, just not behind the wheel.

    Waffles vs. Pancakes vs. French Toast

    Not when I make french toast baby! if you have the pan temp just right 9I prefer cooking over gas rather than electric) and use a healthy coat of butter in the bottom of the pan before you add the "toast"...it gets this real nice carmelized butter crunch to the surfaces...yes it must be served...

    Waffles vs. Pancakes vs. French Toast

    I cant believe only 4 said French toast! OMG, it beats the stuffing out of pancakes and is way easier to make than Waffles. I make mine with a dash of cinnamon and sugar, and a splash of vanilla! Drowned in butter and syrup....DROOL!

    Which country to invade next in the war on terror

    I just watched the Hollywood production of Flight93 that came out on DVD. At one point in the story, the passengers were praying to "god" and the hijackers were praying to "god" ...made me stop to think.... for the sake of not wanting to start another 45page religious discussion, I'll...

    Stock ROTM

    Well, if you were to do a stock catagory then I think "stock appearance" would be a good line to draw. That would mean aftermarket pistons or upgraded LSD would be just fine, but intake tubes, colored hoses, aftermarket exhausts, would be out. It would have to pretty picture intensive to...

    WeezLWings new production run

    Well, one of my concerns with lexan is how to connect it to the brace without drilling through it (weakening the structure of the lexan, and allowing a possible leak location). I assume there is some way to bond to it so a mounting system will be trial and error. I also wanted to incorporate the...

    WeezLWings new production run

    yeah, Lexan/fiberglass/canvas covers are all ideas I've toyed with. I really like the idea of either the Lexan or the canvas. The Lexan for coolness factor and being able to have a clear roof year 'round, and the canvas just for added security in the spring and fall, when you want the wings in...
