Anywhere between $0 and $125K. You need eyes on the prize. Keeping it stock is the economical path and the most likely to preserve value. Going after performance snowballs in cost very quickly and you will not recoup that money in the value of the car.

If you're not racing, all you need is a good set of pads. Don't over think it. EBC Yellowstuff, CarboTech 1521 or AX6, Porterfield R4s, Hawk HPS, etc. Fresh fluid, good new lines. Get back to driving.

The U-Joint is the weak spot, not the yoke. Find a yoke and pinion that upgrades you to the 1350s, get a driveshaft made to take them, fuggedaboutit.

If you're at the pointy end of competition and those xx pounds matter, they make sense. For a normal car, my take is anything that has to have yet another computer in it to keep it from killing itself when the alternative is literally a dumb pile of lead that'll last half a decade if you abuse...

18x9 in the front with a properly measured custom offset is probably the biggest you can go trouble-free. 18x9.5 and a 275 wide tire or bigger and you'll likely end up with complications. I did.

The Bilsteins have a lifetime warranty. Call them and find out what you need to do to have them dealt with. There is no better stock location replacement than the Bilstein units. Adjustability is not useful unless you're racing. Don't pay money for things you won't use.

Finding something newer that's actually better is a five digit proposition.

Install it inline with the positive lead. Cutting the low frequencies off from those speakers doesn't just reduce distortion from sending a signal to the speakers they can't audibly reproduce, it'll prevent the dash cover from rattling. It'll also prolong the life of the speakers by preventing...

Viking has a new set. Call them.

Duplicolor's plastic/fabric/interior medium gray is pretty spot on and typically available in a parts store or amazon...

Indeed there are. I bought two and put them on the shelf. Get 'em while you can.

What's your goal? If it's a bone stock car, there's not a lot to be gained from E85. The stock turbo can only move so much air regardless of the fuel used. Unless you go all the way to flex-fuel, running the tank near empty and swapping chips when E85 isn't available is a real pain in the rear...

Also, holy moses my join date is within a month of Chuck's. Fawk.

We have to be able to spot somebody our estate can sell the car to.

I've been ridiculed on here for stating using alky injection without some kind of monitoring and automatic fail-safe if the pump fails or you run out of methanol is asking for trouble. You found the trouble. The kits that use the stock coolant overflow bottle to hold the methanol inside the...
