    Compaq Latop w/ XP Help?

    I have a Compaq Laptop with Windows XP ( I think it's a little over a year old) and it appears to have gotten a virus, because it would freeze about 5 minutes after startup, so I would always have to start it up in Safe mode. Then after a few months it got to the point where it wouldn't even...

    Looking for pictures of Brown two-tone Supra!

    A looooong time ago (probably a couple years by now) there was a brown two-tone MK3 for sale on SM that was in amazing condition, and was lowered, and had the perfect offset and color wheels (I think they were either bronze or gunmetal) and they looked like Work SSR's from what I remember...

    Insurance settlement too low?

    I was rear ended a while ago in my mom's car, while she was sitting in the passenger seat...damages to the BMW were around $7k, and we both were going to physical therapy/chiropractor for a while. Well, after waiting for quite a while, the insurance company finally made a settlement offer for...

    My new Daily Driver.. FOR REALZ!

    Ok, so my Porsche wasn't working out too well as a daily driver...it was a bit uncomfortable, underpowered, small, no HVAC, and it would like to overheat randomly, even after replacing every last part of the cooling system...sigh. So, I emailed a few people on Craigslist, and found someone who...

    Alarm keeps going off...Supra won't start... :(

    Lately, my supra has developed some sort of electrical issue, I'm assuming... At first, it was just a couple odd times when the car wouldn't start (turn key, and nothing happens, no cranking, no click, nothing.) I would leave it for a while, come back, and it would start perfectly. Well, now...

    Are AC o-rings fuel resistant?

    Hello! :D I need to replace an o-ring in my Porsche's fuel system...and I was just wondering if I could use an o-ring from my AC system pack of O-rings. It will fit fine, but I'm just not sure if the o-rings designed for use in an AC system will hold up to gasoline. Anyone know? Thanks.

    Leaking fuel pressure regulator?

    The other day, I noticed that the vac line going to my stock FPR was looking a bit dry, so I pulled it off of the FPR, and the hose is super hard, and not soft like it should be, and I replaced it not long ago...it also smells like fuel. So I started the car with the vac line off, and revved it...

    My new Daily Driver!

    Well, I sold my fugly old Mercedes, and bought something a LOT cooler... It's a 1977 Porsche 924 w/ 2.0L I4 Audi 100 engine. It has a rear transaxle, which makes it 50/50 balanced O_O. It only has 100hp...but it's small and light enough to still be fun...you can really throw it around corners...
