I know this was discussed awhile ago, but I have two questions about it:1. What is some good stuff to use to clean a engine bay? (I've tried Simple Green and the results were less than satisfactory)
2. What are you supposed to cover when you clean the engine bay? Alternator, Battery...
I thought the RX8 Renesis Engine has 3 rotors not 2? I'm not a big fan of the RX8, RX7s are much better overall I think. You'd be foolish to get a rotary engine unless you have the money because they are quite expensive to repair.You want 9k redlines..S2000 does that
Could have fooled me, I think most buy carbon fiber hoods for looks, not for weight reduction..what you lose a whole 30lbs by switching the hood on a DSM?
4g63 for the WIN! EVO all the way. Who cares about interior or smoothness of ride? So when the Evo wins and you are in your STi you are going to justify your loss because you have a smooth ride experience and nice interior? LOLI think the Evolutions are OK looking, I'd be lying if I said the...
I saw it today with my girlfriend, girlfriend liked it better than the 2nd but the 1st one is still the best in her opinion. I think the 1st one is still the best too.The only problem I had is....not enough variety in the cars...seemed like it was 350z galore in the movie. Though I'm glad the...
I think the metallic orange would look tight, I see the 350z blue all the time..and the puke green is absolutely repulsive. I've seen a Talon with that same color, yeah ugly.
Long story short, Previous owner decided instead of taking off his 95 talon bumper properly he'd just saw it off, so there are parts that are still clogged underneath the front fender that I cannot get out.Second, he started drilling new holes and put the invader front end on, I've since...
miatas are known to do it too, earlier models anyway. DSMs are probably the most popular and most produced cars that do it though thats why you hear about it more.
my question is..why in the hell would you have to drive fast to test a blow off valve? come on now, you don't even have to leave 1st gear.RIP none the less.
How the hell is a 210HP Turbocharged AWD vehicle MADE FOR WOMEN? The vehicle wasn't MADE for women, its a unisex car its for BOTH. I fail to see how anyone comes to this conclusion I consider the cars to be aggressive looking..especially 97+. I mean hell you guys mind as well start calling the...
uhhh..have you tried having sex in the back of a DSM? HAHA, have fun..I had to do it outside on the hood too damn cramped in the back. This girl barely hit 5 feet too.
So you are trying to tell me if I put about $14,000 (to equal $20,000 for a SRT4) into the hood of my TSi AWD a SRT4 would rape me? Hahahahahaha, Yeah right.
oh here we go again...They don't share any similarities to the talon/laser/eclipse therefore they are not DSMs. DSM is a general term to describe a talon/laser/eclipse because they are all the same platform excluding badging. Avengers/Sebrings have nothing in common with a eclipse/laser/talon...
You need aftermarket pipes the outlets are bigger on the supra SMIC. You also have to cut part of the body out to hold it up and keep it from dragging too low. Both ends will also need to be flipped because they are facing the wrong way in stock form.I've had my supra SMIC sitting at the...
Mazda sucks? how did you come to this conclusion?Uhhh..you'd likely die getting hit by a semi in anything.You'd be retarded to get a TURBO ANYTHING for a daily driver, unless it is brand new or driven by a old lady. they'll already be beat to death when you get it.Civic Hatch or...
"Advocating a boycott of gasoline marketed by Citgo Petroleum Corporation (which has been owned by Petróleos de Venezuela, the national oil company of Venezuela, since 1990) over political issues is problematic for a number of reasons (not least of which is the notion that threatening not to buy...
Depends on the turbo really, 16Gs and above will produce more power the closer you get to redline. The wimpy T25s (stock 2G turbos) will give out around 5K-5 1/2K RPMs.
Turbo Civics are NOT RELIABLE CARS by ANY MEANS. I don't know what gave you that impression. a Stock Civic..sure its reliable but that turbo will kill the reliability of the vehicle, trust me.
Doesn't sound like ANYONE here has OCD, OCD interferes with LIFE..being organized or having things a certain way isn't OCD. Now if you were organizing your wallet for 30 minutes a day over and over..checking it to make sure everything is in order over and over again then you might have OCD...
fuel cut isn't bucking, its a violent jerk and you'll be hitting the steering wheel VIOLENTLY when it occurs. Its almost like your car turns off in the middle of driving it. I'm not sure what the problem is but its not fuel cut from what you are describing.
DSM transmissions aren't that bad, they hold a lot of power. My TSi AWD has been beaten to death and the transmission is about the only thing that hasn't gone wrong with it. They are notchy as hell (try speed shifting into 2nd, hard to hit that bi*** sometimes).
L O L I had a girl that I went out to lunch with from work drive in my car, I have the blitz dd blow off value..so it makes a "WAAAAAAA-DOOOSH" noise..the girl was saying "I think your transmission is going out." I just laughed..told her its my blow off valve. She probably didn't know what I...
I think RWD is more fun outside of snow (in some cases in snow its more fun), however if you are looking to put down big horsies then AWD would be the way to go..you wouldn't have so many traction issues.
Agreed, 2G DSMs and MKIV Supra body style has managed to beat the test of time. They both still look modern. Interior on the DSM on the otherhand..is looking quite dated.They need to reinstate the POWER BULDGE in the 4th gens.
I know another car that looks like they are smiling...::cough:: 95-96 eclipse/talons ::cough::I don't know I really don't think they can top the look of the MKIV, it amazes me how incredibly sexy that car is compared to the previous generations.
Looks..interesting..its got a muscle cars front end, the body style of a RX8, and the ass end of the MK4 Supra.I thought the rumor was there was going to be a V10 version?
