    How to install new battery terminals?

    The car audio terminals look great, IMO. And if you plan on doing any add-on's that will require you to tap battery power, they will look ten times better than trying to add it onto a regular terminal. My .02 Quick google image ex. : Cool one from Monster: And Fosgate:

    I have a warrant out for me? I don't suppose we have any lawyers here....

    Pretty much my thoughts. I feel for ya, Laura. Financial troubles blow. I've always had my parents to help bail me out in case of financial mishaps, normally due to car repairs and such.(They're not exactly wealthy, just too damn nice) I can't imagine what I'd do if I didn't have that to fall...

    I just lost 5 lbs in just under 5 hours! Ask me how.

    No problems here. :) I love Taco Bell. I think I've got a pretty strong stomach though, cuz I never get food poisoning or the runs from any type of food. :dunno:

    How dark are your windows Pics please

    Though I agree 3% is nuts, maybe even 5%, I really don't think the tint is to blame for hitting a cyclist when it was 30% tint. :dunno:

    Suprarx7nut 's 7MGE BHG repair job done right (hopefully)

    Didn't see this post until right now. How did your repair go? Are there any huge gaps in my writeup? I'd love some feedback because the whole goal of this writeup was to assist others. :) IIRC, you've already had some experience with this sort of thing though, right? I just had to unplug a...

    Happy 4th and thank you to all those who have served/are serving or will serve in the armed forces. :) ::salute::

    Wiring harness

    The lengths of the wires should be a good indicator as they are all progressively longer or shorter, pending where you start. I believe the TSRM also tells you what goes where. ;)

    WOW< Just got the bill for head work!!

    Even the 180 for a resurfacing of the head surface seems a little bit high, but what do I know. :dunno: I paid 135 for my shop to resurface/clean head and replace valve stem seals. They quoted me 135, and that is exactly what I paid. I'd be upset if a shop quoted me and then charged me double...

    How dark are your windows Pics please

    I think 30-20&#37; looks just fine and allows you to see well at night. My g/f had 30 all around on her last car and it was perfectly fine at night. I will be getting either 30 or 15 shortly. The legal limit is 27% here, so 30 would be legal, 15 would not.

    my morning was fulll of win!

    I hate Ford products in general more than just about anything, but the GT40 is quite simply a beautiful car. I'd drive one proudly anyday.

    Today sucked

    What was/is the oil level like? I always ask this question and NOBODY answers. I am curious as to how often anyone gets rod knock with proper oil levels. So far, I have only heard of a few isolated incidents, most of which were due to extreme lateral accelerations conceivably moving oil away...

    Apexi intake

    I simply bolted it right up. I bought mine second hand from CRE, who apparently got the one for the mr2. I was unaware. :D Mine required no extra work at all, unless CRE had already prepped it. :dunno: It did include a few mounting brackets that are not even close to fitting in any way...

    Apexi intake

    FWIW, I dont really think my Apexi intake has increased performance as it gets rid of the "cold air intake" feature that the stock box provides, but it doesn't seem to hurt it and it sounds quite nice. :) I'd like to buy/commission/make some sort of cold air partition for the filter while...

    Turbo Revival __________ (Pic filled)

    Yes sir, yet another Cali car for me! Tags haven't been updated since 2006! I'll be removing the cali plates and replacing them with some good 'ole Colorado ones this week if insurance goes through. :)

    Turbo Revival __________ (Pic filled)

    UPDATE!!! It was the freakin' t-stat housing gasket area the whole time. The rtv I used is apparently NOT for use on cooling systems or something because it blew out/disintegrated. Bought some t-stat/water SPECIFIC RTV and used a new toyota gasket and BAM, problem solved. After driving it for...

    FAIL- Of epic proportions

    Wow. And that d-bag spent upwards of 15 grand on a car. Dumb people who buy "sporty" cars blow my mind. He should have bought a geo metro. *edit. Read his second response. I'm pretty sure he's kidding.

    2008 Colorado Toyota Meet!!!

    I think if your engine bay is as clean as it normally is, that will suffice. Screw the exterior, just open the hood when you arrive. My situation is the opposite. I will be keeping the hood closed and the body polished and waxed. :) Of course I still have an ugly bumper, missing trim and paint...

    Kitty needs a name.

    Pussy. Or if you need to keep it child-friendly: Lugnut, sparkplug, goodyear, michelin, nitto, kitty, treadmark, etc...

    N/A Gas milage.

    Estonia, so the "man" claims. Not really sure where that even is, but I remember pics of his car with Euro style number plates.
