I have a little beater isuzu Imark 3spd that is not exactly fun to drive. You can select 1st 2nd and Drive on the auto shifter, was wondering if it would be really bad for the tranny if I shifted it manually going 1st second Drive like this? I don't really know anything about autos because this...

To start with, I dont want to convert my car to RWD, I was just reading about how its hard to convert to RWD and stuff and I thought of a possible simple way to do it. Why not just weld the center differential and just remove the front driveshafts? Could this work? :confused:

Theres A turbo Starion at my local junkyard and I was wondering if there is anything other than the FMIC worth taking off the car that would be an upgrade for my turbo 1g.

I can get another sidemount intercooler for free and I was wondering about like a Duel intercooler setup, has anybody ever done this before, if so how did it work?

Oops, wrote that wrong, Ill have to edit my post to faster moving air. I cant think straight late at night :coy:

This is great, I didnt think there were many other people who beleived this. I remember watching Bill Nye the science guy as a kid and he was saying how this low pressure zone caused by faster moving air causes lift. I was like thats bullshit. This kinda stuff seems so common sense to me.

Not to carry around, thats a sure way to get in trouble just to shoot with for fun.

Alright, Im 18 and Ive always really wanted a handgun, Ive had a few rifles and I think it would be really fun to get good with a handgun too. However as most people know you gotta be 21 to buy one. Now I know that one of those Black powder cap and ball pistols are considered to be antiques...

I remember I banged a mob bosses wife then robbed the shit out of his house after doing a few jobs for him, all while horing my real wife out for some extra cash, stared in several porn movies on the side so I could make enough money to buy the car. :rocks: Common what other game can you do...

Im curious has anybody who's played Fallout ever tried to kill EVERYONE ? When I say this I mean completely wipe out all the towns? I wonder if anything would happen. I used to try to take over the brotherhood of Steel's base in Fallout one to see what kinda cool stuff they have in their storage...

ROFL ...............................................F@cking Chuck Norris...................

Its wierd how so many people have never even heard of it, its one of those great games that went under the radar. Recently Interplay sold their rights to it to Bethesda I believe so their may be a Fallout 3 but it probably wont be as good as the old ones :(

The other night I was bored so I popped in my old Fallout 2 CD in my new PC, installed it and started a new game. And let me tell you I forgot how addictive this game is, probly played for 2 hours before I went to bed. For those that havent played it Fallout 1 or 2 are RPG's set in a post...

My flamethrower makes a good 9- 10 foot flame, made it out of a pesticide sprayer. The front tank holds anything flammable. I use it for uhh..... stump removal yeah thats it. :thumb:

Heres something you can try, let the car heat up to operating temp and then put on a leather glove or something and squeeze the coolant hoses. They should be firm and pressurized. If not your HG is most likely blown. Does your exhaust blow steam? You can also try taking the radiator cap off at...

sounds like you might have a blown headgasket

My best friends dad worked at wal mart for like 10 years and they arn't supposed to persue shoplifters once they are out of the store.

There is no miracle product that will give you 50%-70% better gas mileage and anything that claims it does is BS.There are a few things that DO work for increasing gas mileage but not drastically by themselves, the only thing that can drastically change your MPG is your driving habbits. You...

I know of a way better one, You gotta have the volume turned up for it , its pretty trippy, still gets you even after youve seen it a few times :D :D :D :D I personally love this kinda shit! enjoy> http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/subliminal.php

Yeah its hella dangerous,did you know that gas masks can't filter the radioactive dust let off by the rounds, US troops arn't informed of this either. I guess its because the particles are so small.

Wow, how does it cause a vacuum that strong?

After I saw this video, I did some searching and I found nothing but bad stuff about depleated uranium usage in weapons. All pertaining to increased chances of cancer and birth defects.

"U.S. Army reports which have been released or leaked to the public reveal that military commanders were aware of the serious health and environmental consequences of using depleted uranium bullets before Operation Desert Storm. A July 1990 Army report clearly warns that large numbers of...

Oh yeah if you click on more info at the end of the video you can sign a worldwide petition to ban the use of depleted uranium weapons, I think anybody in there right mind would do this because just think, would if another war is fought on American soil and they are used here too. I mean its bad...

Found this while poking around on the internet, its pretty disturbing.Heres the link: http://www.bushflash.com/pl_lo.html

I solved the problem, I drove for awhile with the force feedback off then with it on and did like 20 laps on one track until I got good at it. Theres just a big learning curve going over to a wheel especially one with force feedback, but its worth it you can feel every little bump and...

You can turn the force feedback down to mid in the settings but it doesnt really make a big difference, really the only thing you can do to make it playable is to turn off the force feedback off which sucks. Ill check out that site, maybe theres a way to make it work right.

I got GT4 awhile back and its cool and all but I never did like the playstations dual shock controllers, the joysticks are too hard to be precise with. SOOOOOOO I bought a Logitech Driving Force steering wheel off Ebay and it works fine with the game and all and the force feedback is...

Something that might be relevent: I had to move it yesterday so my father could plow and it wasn't getting alot of traction, I noticed only 1 rear and 1 front wheel were spinning on oppsosite sides, dont think it did that before. Something definetally is real close to going because its still AWD...

Don't worry I havent driven it since this happened 2 days ago, I dont want to cause any more damage. The thing that sucks is that I cant work on it right now either because the garage has 2 cars in it and theres a blizzard outside. :thumbdown Is there a way to test in any way to see what is...

I was leaving to work today and had to stop to let someone by, my road is very narrow. When I took off again the car was like creeping sideways with little to no traction I mean it was hard to get it to go straight, I was like WTF? so I open my door and only my rear tires are spinning. At onle...

Okay, heres the update> I did the leakdown test, by the way the engine was at operating temperature. It apears that the head is not leaking at all or too little to detect which Im kinda glad about as Ive paid...... damn ... alot for the work done to it. Its losing compression past the piston...

Yeah the car was at operating temp, Ill let you know the vaccuum after I do the leakdown test today because I dont remember what it was. There was valve work done to it, the seats were reground and the valves were lapped. Also there were a few exhaust guides that were bad that got changed. I...

stock cams

Thats what I thought, looks like I have more work to do.

The head was redone with all valve seats reground and the valves were lapped. Maybe they did a lousy job or something. Will the compression really change that much over the break in period on theses engines?

Its got about 80 miles on it so far, It just seems like the numbers should be higher than that even if its not broken in yet.

I know , its pathetically low. I think Im gonna have to pull the head off again. This time Im gonna have it pressure tested to make sure there are no leaky valves. im also going to recheck the ring endgap clearance, maybe I mismeasured before or something. First however Im gonna find somebody...

What was your compression after a rebuild? I ask because mine is quite low, 135,125,125,115. I plan on doing a leakdown test to pinpoint the cause.

Have you ever had a really bad CV joint before? They make a clicking noise and I had a car once that whenever the CV joint was under load or when the car was trying to move it clicked. Im not saying this IS your problem, Im just saying consider the simpler causes before doing something...

Never mind guys, I just threw caution to the wind and installed a stock clutch anyway and low and behold it works perfectly!!!!!!! My car moves again! First time in 3 months its moved, I was all excited and i drove it down the road and the alternator died..........F#cking DSM :rolleyes: :p...

Moving one of those levers wont do anything because when you put the shift cables back on them everything kind of lines up again, unless you bent one but that would be pretty hard to do. Have you looked at simpler causes yet like maybe the passenger side CV joint is bad and only makes noise at...

I agree with you, Ive bought alot of stuff from advanced Auto parts. Its like 20 ft down the road from the local autozone. Their prices are like you said 90% of the time cheaper, I just like the lifetime warantee Autozone gives for a little more. Advance autoparts also has awsome customer...

Thats my plan right now man, only this time I think Im gonna go with centerforce :cool:Thats why I love Autozone, they offer a lifetime warantee on everything and its still often cheaper than other shops. :thumb: :thumb:

I need to know what the stepping is on the stock flywheel with stock clutch. Mine is Currently stepped to .612 from an ACT 2600, can I use the stock clutch at this step height?

See if you guys can figure this out?I bought an ACT 2600 awhile back (dont remember exactly how long) when I overhauled my engine, put it all together and drove it 62 miles, whenever the clutch was disengaged it made this kind of toned down break noise( you know when your break pads are worn...

Well if you want to go the cheap route buy a stock clutch from autozone for $140 with a lifetime warantee, then you can burn it up as many times as you want :thumb: and never pay another dime! Thats if you can change it yourself. However if your making alot of power just save save save and buy...

That thud your hearing is probly just bad mounts. You can get a stutterbox which lets you rev the engine up in drive and you control when the clutch engages, I suppose you could get a sportronic tranny out of one of the newer 4cyl eclipses as they have them, but I dont know if it would fit and...
