    Nexus One - Cell Phone, Reviews? Anyone

    It's through T-Mobile and soon to be Verizon. I read something about it not being able to receive AT&T's 3G signal so it doesn't sound like it will work with them. :dunno:

    Alright, Television Q

    I'll throw in another vote for Samsung. Good stuff. Sony and Sharp would be my other recommendations. I think Sony still has the most realistic colors, but they tend to be a little more expensive when comparing to a similar Samsung. I agree with Boost Lee. The Walmart by me is helping to put...

    Speedometer Problem (Always reads 0mph)

    You're so lost that you posted in the website recommendations forum. :biglaugh: If you want some help, you might have to wait for a mod to move this thread to a place more suited to answer questions regarding the OD light and a broken speedo.

    Questions about measuring main/rod bore diameter

    The select fit system takes into account the ID and OD. I'm not sure why you hate the system so much. :biglaugh: It's not that complicated, but damn some people seem to think it's evil rocket science or something. You have one number for the OD, then one for the ID. Add them together to...

    confusion

    uh... white smoke? That would be a problem. If it's smoking any color, you have stuff burning that shouldn't be. That could be from blown rings, blown HG, or bad valve seals, maybe a few other things. I wouldn't be trying to top out a car that smokes. :nono:

    BHG Confusion...

    ~$50. I think mine was $45 from carquest. Comes with everything you need. When you get it the test is simple: -Open radiator cap, siphon off some fluid so the radiator is not full to the brim. You may want to remove enough coolant so the core is nearly exposed. -Start motor -Place kit on...

    Help!!1!11!!!

    Definitely not. Unless the block is warped or you want to use a metal head gasket (NOT needed for an NA) then you can simply clean the old material off the block and use copper spray on the new gasket. It's a great idea to get the head milled though. Personally, I would never skip milling...

    BHG Confusion...

    This is VERY EASY to diagnose. You need to get a "Block test kit" or "Exhaust gas detection kit". They are kits that test for exhaust gases in the coolant. If you try that and it triggers the test liquid, you have a very simple, clear, cut and dry answer. Sounds like you have a BHG, but it...

    Seriously?!?!?! Stay away from NO-Xplode

    Ah supplements... I love how so much of the crap you can find at GNC or other "health" stores can actually be very harmful to your body. Eating right and avoiding the supplements ftw.

    88 Turbo: The Undead

    We spent some more time in the garage tonight. Engine mostly stripped, head removed. A bunch of water jackets were deformed on the exhaust side of the head gasket. Most headbolts were pretty tight, but a few on the exhaust side were substantially less than others. Block surface looks very...

    Ive just about had enough.

    I fix broken Supra's for fun. Do yourself a favor, pull the motor, spend a little bit of labor time with it, deal with the HG issue, buy a full set of bearings, get the crank ground/polished, maybe replace the rings, then enjoy most a rebuilt motor. Get your hands dirty and build your car. If...

    NA to turbo

    For us to help you make it run properly, we're going to need a lot more info. If the ECU is for a gte and everything else is from an NA, then you might just need an NA ecu.

    rear seat speaker pod.

    Damn, I'm interested. A pair of component woofers would go so well in there. Get some better low end oomph without having to do a sub. 135 isn't too bad. I'll have to very seriously consider using some of my turbo funds...

    so it's been a while, well I got it running- then the inevitable happen..

    Wait, are you driving it still? If so, stop. Now. Don't turn the key one more time. Dont worry about your exhaust until you have a good running, bhg free car.
