    Rear bump stop options?

    This seemed like a good place to post this. I'm going to be swapping out my springs soon (I have H&R's, going to switch to Eibachs), and I'm gonna replace some other worn out parts while doing it. In the front I recently replaced the bump stops (KYB ones from O'reily's) and also...

    H&R springs sagging?

    I'm currently running 16" rims, and I'll be upgrading in the very near future. I'm going to go at least 17, or very likely 18, with at least a 7.5 inch width. Once I get the new wheels, I plan on upgrading the brakes as well. I already have two calipers that a friend got off a T-100 (4...

    Vibrating/grinding brakes...

    Did a search and didn't get any real help. Today I was driving around on Ice, and every time that i hit the brakes hard, the car would slide. That was expected, but what was not expected was that every time it slid, if I pressed the brake pedal too hard, i would feel a vibrating in the...

    Advice on swaybar choice

    I've been reading the posts around here, and I'm trying to make a decision about what sway bars to buy... I'm thinking White lines front, and Tanabe rear. I'm running Bilstein shocks with stock springs, and will probably have that setup for a while. 225 tires in the front, 245's in the...

    Bad temperature sender? Also, gauge question.

    I did some searches and I think i found one person who has had this problem before.... The other day, my car started randomly having temperature spikes. And when I say spike, i mean it will shoot up to the red, and back down to normal in the span of 1-2 seconds... Not enough time for it to...

    advice for an occasional drag setup
