    Trouble with Brake Rotor Removal

    that's what the vents are for you want the most mass you can get to get the heat out of the pads and into the rotors, or you boil the brake fluid and glaze the pads yes, there is quite a bit of weight savings, not to mention that it's unsprung and rotational weight. I'm not kidding when I...

    Supra Seats Suck

    lemme guess, you like to lean way back? sit in the seats like you would if you where racing (close enough that you do not extend your leg all the way to push the clutch in, seat back up high enough that you can put your shoulder on the back and put your wrist on the steering wheel) It...

    What the hell happened to the forums?

    not all, but quite a few of them are... you know, the ones that pay to have everything done and think they shit icecream... it's the typical car snob attitude... Then you have the upstanding guys that build their own cars and go out of their way to help. I have zero issues with these...

    Driveshaft critical speeds.

    looks like fun if you find a better center bearing, let us know. I went to the junkyard because I needed the part of the driveshaft that goes into the tranny (pulling the tranny, and don't want to drain it). Low milage 90 model and the center bearing was still toast...

    polishing the lower intake manifold....

    taking it apart isn't too hard, but I haven't polished much of anything on my engine... too much damn work, and I drive it too much

    Driveshaft critical speeds.

    depends a lot on the rear gear ratio... if you're getting a beefier 2-piece made, what about the center bearing? it seems to be the weak link in the chain...
