    mouse troubles

    I wouldn't be so sure, I had a mouse living in my garage that could somehow steal the bait without setting off the trap. Every morning I'd check the trap and it would be sprung and the bait would be gone. Eventually the odds caught up with him and the trap got him. Didn't know when to...

    plugs toast after less than 10 miles?!?!?!?

    My crystal ball says: I.C. pipe popped off or is leaking and motor getting too much fuel w/ no boost resulting in super rich condition.

    Paint - Color Change Estimate / Good or Bad

    Wrong. Correct. Zfast: Your friends are use to doing 40 + year old cars that were built when there was virtually no corrosion protection. The poster here is talking about a car that he obviously knows the history and condition of the body under the paint. It hasn't been repainted...

    Gotta love that fuel hard line at the gas tank

    Rubber high pressure fuel line will be fine if that's the way you want to fix it. In the purist sense it's not ideal but in practicality it will work out fine. It will not burst from pressure or harden in a year (assuming you use good quality high pressure hose). As far as walbro fuel pumps...

    Seats

    Lemme ask you a question....Are you gonna be driving this car on the street? Have you ever tried to back up or parallel park or adjust your stereo etc. wearing a harness? It sucks. FWIW.

    pulstar spark plugs

    No, I didn't consider that. But it sounds reasonable. Is it true? How much delay? Where are you getting your data? I'm eager to hear about this, thanks for pointing that out.:icon_bigg

    where to buy RXB?

    I've wanted one for quite some time. But a year for delivery? Who does business like that? (rehtorical question) They look like they'd be kinda tough to fab-up and make it fit 100% right.

    pulstar spark plugs

    Hey doc, I'm just telling you what he emphatically told me. From what I know of him he’s a straight shooter. He might be wrong, but I believe he believes it, He’s a competent, seasoned, mechanic, drag racer (and cheapskate). I can’t picture him throwing money away on...

    Wiring an E-fan using a switch...

    Exactly, If you follow the path of your diagram you will see that by putting your switch in the close position (switching it on) you are connecting positive directly to negative. Instant electrical fire.

    Wiring an E-fan using a switch...

    The line with the "pyramid" looking thing on top refers to ground. I think that's what your asking "what the hell does this mean".

    pulstar spark plugs

    A friend of mine runs these and swears they're great. He claims that he can run 3-4 degrees more advance (above where he would normally get detonation) without detonation. This is while running Nos at the strip. Opinions?

    wide tires on factory rims

    +1 That wide rim w/ tire stretched on to it look is "gay for Moeman".

    Lights dim when i hit the brakes.

    I think you've got a parasitic short somewhere. Here's what you do: Disconnect your negative battery lead and then take a test light and connect the ground to your -negative battery post, and the +positive side to your now disconnected -negative battery cable. If the test light lights...

    supra sketches

    I expected to see something that looked like it was drawn by a kindergardner or one of Jerry's Kids but those are awesome sketches. I am pleasently surprised, good work! I like the Supra comic strip idea. :icon_bigg

    best exhaust

    I just got a ticket for modified exhaust so I'll be interested to see which is the quietest. (Not to hijack the thread, but if anyone has any ideas on how to beat a Ca. vc 27150 violation I'd sure appreciate it.)

    Do you want Energy Suspension Poly Bushings? READ HERE.

    Is there someone else we can petition to manufacture these bushings? I hate to say it, but I think we are jacking ourselves off, they aren't going to do it or they would have already (read my previous post #29). I hope I'm wrong, but my gut says otherwise. Whoever is pulling the strings...

    What the Hell?!?

    If this is the worst thing that ever happens to you, you are extremely lucky...blessed I would say. This is nothing, BFD. Quit crying and get over it.

    Do you want Energy Suspension Poly Bushings? READ HERE.

    I've had these guys (energy suspension) on the phone so many times and they always say the same thing..."Yeah we're 6 mos away from developing a set of bushings...or Gee we just don't get that much call for them (lie) blah blah blah.... I hope you can get it done, but I'll believe it when I...
