Hello all, good to see the forum is still alive. I have been a member since 02, but have been radio silent for probably a decade. Between starting my own business, and a family the ol dsm has taken the back burner. She’s been jack stand ballin since 06 (I think, may have to look at the tag to...

I was playing on Caspian Border (I think) and jumped out of a chopper that was going down, and parachuted onto the tall red antenna. I was using the recon class and dropped a spawn beacon in case I got shot. I managed to head shot a guy running behind the B flag, had to aim about an inch (on...

Adrian's Undead Diary Journal HomeThis will require "reading" I'm sure some of the older guys around here still remember when we actually read from books (lawlz). I found this through AR15, and was sucked in to the point that my wife had to elbow me and tell me it was time to go to bed...

OK so I picked up a 240 to play with, maybe sr20 or stick with the ka since its a single slammer. Drove 1.5 hours to get the car, looked it over, test drove, and took it home.The kid is going to the military so he needed to move it quickly. Had it listed as a 93 with coilovers, full 3"...

My oldest turns 16 next month, so we have been searching the classifieds for a car. Found him a sweet 1gb in Louisville that was lightly modded for 3k. Showed him the pics, and he has rode in my car for the last nine years, yet he wants no part of it. We found a 96 Civic Hatch locally for...

OK post them up.Phizer came out with Viagra 2.0. They are calling "Tiagra" cause its good for 18 holes plus your wife.

33 years old and I have a fricken kidney stone 4cm lodged between my kidney and my man parts. Worst pain I have ever felt in my life. Started off feeling like an upset stomach, and then moved on to feeling like someone was twisting a knife in my side.Morphine drip and the button I could...

Owning my own tint/audio/other shop I have ran into several of these customers. For that matter, maybe anybody watching this will have a different outlook on how they treat people in the biz.YouTube - The Vendor Client relationship - in real world situationsLOL

Bought my wife a 99 Volvo S80 T6, for those of you who dont know, its a twin turbo fwd 4 door. Car has 140 on the clock, but I got it at an auction for nearly nothing. Previous owner provided me with service records all the way back to day one. Its no beast by any means, and the turbos have...

And it is hella faster than my DSM! I found this little jewel at one the the car dealerships I do work for. 18,000 miles, 02 F4i, laid down on the left side but just minor scuffs. Micron slip on, other than that bone stock. 2 large and she was mine.

This is a strictly mathematical viewpoint...it goes like this:What Makes 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100%? Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%? We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give over 100%. How about...

Anyone play this yet? I picked it up today, will give a detailed report on Monday. Got a cold sixer in the fridge and a 64" Mitsu LCD at the house calling my name. :thumb:

I found a 97 GST for $3200 within 100 miles of me, new motor, bone stock, lady driven, blah blah. Called the guy up and he said that he could not sell the car untill Friday because that was the only day he could go to the courthouse and get the title transferred.I say I will be there Friday...

Hit the preorder today. Cant wait untill the end of the month!

A man that has a house payment, car payment, wife, and a girlfriend...and they are all a month late! OMG

I unlocked a car (I think its the I-E7) looks just like a ricey 2g, complete with big wing & vinyl. But on the plus side, it does have a huge fmic and a cool bov sound. Any one else playing around in paradise city?

I am looking for a shop to do my rebuild. I live in a very rural area, and don't trust just anyone to touch my car. Most of the work I do myself, but I have never tore anything down and rebuilt it, so I am a little hesitant. I can deliver the car, and leave it for a while, as its not my daily...

I decided to investigate after reading in the local car sales mag about a "lightly" wrecked 90 laser for sale. Since I don't see many of these along my way, I figured it was worth a look. After arriving at a Wrecker/Body Shop were the car was located, I found the owner and asked about the...

Well, I got the big idea I would remove my Intake Manifold and port & polish it, while my DSM is in the garage taking up space untill I can get some new tires. Anyway, I was very thourough on marking everything I removed, to insure that everything went back into its appropriate place. Manifold...

Has anybody ever used any of their stuff? Where I work, one of our major suppliers told me that Falken had decided to attempt making some "tuner" bolt on's, but later decided that they wanted to focus on their tire and wheel selections. My supplier was offered to buy their entire stock for a...

Not trashing anyone here, but this squid came into my shop to get his windows tinted. I pulled his 02 WRX down to the shop, and was waiting for the door to open, when he comes running out all "Wait wait.... you can't let this thing run too long!" Just out of curiosity I said "Why?" Dude...

Where do you see fuel cut if you are looking at the karmen readings? I though I read it was about 1400 but I can see 1850 with an unhacked mas? I don't think I am hitting fuel cut, just the rev limiter. I know all cars will be different but if you could tell me when you see fuel cut I would...

What happens when your 02 sensor dies? I can read voltage through the S-AFC and it stays constant all the time, while my A/F meter does nothing. Everything was working fine untill last night when I was on my way home. The A/F gauge just died, and I checked the voltage through the "blue wire...

I installed a fuel pressure gauge outside of the car, mounted on the hood. Stock fuel pump (I think) it read 50+ at wot. I thought that without a re-wire you should lose voltage, therfore losing pressure. Or is that just with an aftermarket fuel pump? If I don't need to re-wire, that would...

My boss bought his step son (who is 14) a 3g. Well, part of my job this week is ordering and installing a bunch of parts to make it look good & go semi fast. I find stuff avaliable, and he o.k.'s the order. We ordered an AEM cold air intake and a set of Eibach pro springs from RRE (thanx) and...

I got a liquid filled Pro Comp from a friend. Where would you guys suggest tapping into to get a good reading? Should I just tee off the fuel line before the regulator? Sorry for the noob question...

Hacked my mas after buying an S-AFC. Car idle went to sh!t. I removed both upper and lower honeycombs (I know) . Well any who, I just bought a unhacked mas from a boneyard (got a stock airbox, mas ,and bcs for $ 40.00 :D ) and installed it, bad idle went away for a couple of days. Now its...

I was installing a new capacitor on my current audio system, when it occured to me, why wouldnt this work to help feed current to the fuel pump. Any answers?:confused:

Is there any way to dyno test an AWD by removing the driveshaft? I assume you would have to plug both ends off somehow. Would this adversly affect the rear end? Any help would be appreciated.Thanks,Justin

Whoever owned my car previously disconnected the wastegate. That was all fine and dandy untill I did some exhaust work on her. Eliminated the cat, put a tube-style race muffler in its place, and dumped it right before the rear diff. Now my boost goes to 20-22 psi at WOT. While this is fun...

Can anyone help me tune this thing? Car is pretty much stock, after I installed the S-AFC and hacked the MAS it rough idles. I vent into the atmosphere, and the S-AFC is supposed to cure the stall that sometimes happens. I know basically how to use it, but any advice or tips would be...

I need help. Went to vfaq, found installation instructions for a galant/tel. Following the instructions, I can't even find the wiring harness, or anything. I must just be a complete moron, or something. Any help would be appreciated.

Came across a killer deal today. The guy I bought my car from has a junkyard in another county, and I asked him about a few misc. parts I needed. He sold me a whole car (93 Talon TSI AWD 5-speed, over 100 thousand miles, burning some oil) for 1,000. Car starts up and runs fine, puffs a little...

I got suckered by this guy on e-bay advertising a "performance chip" for my Talon. Bought it for 29 bucks and he sent me a "timing advance kit" which turned out to be a resistor from Radio Shack. The chump didnt even send installation instructions, and wont return my e-mails or phone calls. I...

I know, I know. But anyway, how do I mod my 1g BOV to vent into the atmosphere? I must be a ****ing idiot because I can't find the faq anywhere. I am going to shoot a little propane into the intake and I need to vent to the atmosphere to prevent unburned propane from being shoved back into my...

I have read a lot of "controversy" regarding bov venting to the atmosphere. I want to vent mine, for my own reasons, but I don't want to change from the 1g. Is this possible? :confused: Any help would be appreciated, and no flaming, please.

I was just wondering, when you put in an aftermarket head unit, does it still run the factory amp? I used the appropriate wiring harness.

Check this out. www.importpoweronline.com I work at a high performance diesel shop (I know, oxymoron, but you would be surprised, we have a 7900 lb Powerstroke running low 13 in the 1320) We have been putting propane systems on these trucks for a while. You get better fuel mileage, about 100...

The other day I was looking through SCC and found an advertisement for a intercooler mounted nitrous system. The basic idea was to spray the front of the intercooler to freeze it, therfore dropping the temp. NX was offering a free system to anyone who could come up with a good name for it...

Putting a NOS setup my boss bought for his truck. He decided he wants carbon fiber bottles and a direct port set up, so I get his blue bottle and wet set up for next to nothing. I have a 93 Talon TSI AWD, with the wastegate shut, K&N filtercharger, gutted airbox, test pipe. 2.5 Flowmaster with...

:confused:I keep seeing all these people running around with the "Afterburner" LED tip for their exhaust. I remember my uncle telling me back in the day they used to put a spark plug in the tip and wire it to the distributor so it would spark and ignite the unburnt fuel coming out. This...
