    Curiosity: Dollar sign position before/after numbers

    Look up the origins of the English language and you'll understand why it's so damn confusing. It has adopted words from many other languages to the point that the EXCEPTIONS are huge. English is one of THE hardest languages to learn, as the grammar is opposite (good example is spanish to...

    Tire siping. Worth the extra $40??

    tires are pre-siped, that's why there isn't just one large tread block... hard to explain, it's REALLY easy to see on an all terrain tire. As they wear down the siping goes away so they lose traction and get noisier...

    exhaust question?

    if you can get a stanless 3" catback it would be an upgrade, as stainless will ast longer and won't rust... is it worth it? well... to me it would be, as it's a kaizen upgrade (lots of small upgrades = big power)

    HELP!----stage 2 or stage 3 clutch?----

    I'll have to argue, my Action 6 puck is very well mannered for a 6 puck. No chatter (well, maybe the first 2 times I used it). It is a bit grab happy, but it's managable (stock honda clutches are worse IMHO) Avoid RPS 3200lb pressure plates. They kill engines.

    Springs and Dampers?

    can I ask which ones you've studied? a lot of people say the HKS ride nicer than ths tock suspension, but handle amazing. Tein's are a favorite, but I'm still unsure of them as they might be more hype than anything. I'll be interested in your coilovers, but I doubt I can afford them (out...

    clutch problem

    friend did the job wrong obviously, and it's not going to be cheap... The snapring tends to get stuck, starts rotating, and eventually machines the lip that holds the snapring on... means a new hub ($50) along with all the related hardware... start here and read up on it. I can get the...
