Well, I was changing the trans filter on my Mazda3 and had the brilliant idea to pain the pan while it was off with lime green engine paint. Looks great! and no one can even see it :P Anywho, in my zeal, I left out the magnet. I have since stuck it on the outsid eof the pan bottom. Opps. So, I...

Well, my wife came clean two mornings ago about an affair she was having and that it was over. She "found God" about eight months ago and started an affair in Sept. All that I cared about was my 3 year old son and to my suprize wasnt even phased by that - I immediatly asked for counseling. She...

Well, it's been six months since I let the Buick go, so I gues it's time to clean out the ol' garage...if I other things I'll yet you know. Buick T-top bags: $50 TurboLink set up w/ serial to USB connector!: $60 TA-51 turbo: $100 Stock coil pack w/ 67k on it: $40 Stock radio and speakers...

I know its OBD-II, but can you jump terminals like on GNs to get it to flash codes?

Everytime I start the car, it is quite, but after I dive it for a bit, turning much or not, the power steering gets a little heaver and whines/moans. Evertyime I pop the hood, I notice that PS fluid has spewed out of the little hole in the PS lid. The fluid is very brown(probably from dirt...

My friend is building up an 80 El Camino(just a mild 350hp build) and was curious about ignition system upgrades - like going to a coil pack rather than a distributor - he mentioned a Mallory system, but is that the best bang for the buck? What is involved in the swap to delete the distributor...

I've seen these threads over and over again, but I jsut want to get an idea of you you guys think of it. 92K 86 GN w/ t-tops that have non GM weatherstripping (they have wind noise and some leaking) Stock turbo - 3" DP - magnaflow 3" single exhaust 30#injectors - red's 93 chip - adjustable...

This little do-hickey, as you can plainly see, is leaking antifreeze and I want it to stop. What exactly does it do? Does stop the water from circulating through the heater when not in use? Is it a GM only part? Can I just delete it w/o affecting anything? BTW, if you can't tell, it's between up...

I know the guys on this board love to DIY setups like the PS intercoolers (I will someday do one as well!), so here is a good one to keep those oil temps down! I picked up a oil cooler off of an Rx-7 for $10 at my local salvage yard. It measures about 23x5x2 inches and will certianly be of...

I contacted the Texas car title site and they never replied. So, before I waste time trying to talk to the local place, I thought I would try here. I have an Rx-7 w/o a title. A previous owner had a guy haul it off when the engine gave out. It sat in his possesion for probably a few months to...

I am asking about Texas policy, so keep this in mind... OK, so I have a car in my possesion that I never put in my name because I didnt want to waste money on titling until I knew the car would run(it was very far from it when I got it). The title is now lost after I reveived it probably 2...

I am specifically refering to an overhead BMW 6 cylinder, but in interference engines are you able to turn the cam 360* w/o colliding with a piston if you are moving it by hand?

Especially as it warms up, as I drive down the road, my t-tops jsut sit there and rattle and grumble and whatnot - is there any good way to stop this? I thought about jsut getting some rubber and stuffing it in there with the things that grab the body and lock them on.

Well, we saw a new 2007 Hotwheels GN and got one for us and son. Its a twin turbo w/ lift off hood...

It needs to meet two requirements: 1. Space for the wife and kid(throws out the Rx-7 idea) 2. Fun to drive (boost is a big plus) Any suggestions?(besides a turbo buick :D )

Jeez guys, you all know it was going to happen...now we have to start all over again. >:(

I have a 2" drop on my car and I am looking into some 17s. I have seen a couple guys running Corvettte ZR1 wheels and what not. After reading another post, I checked out a website that gave me the complete dimensions for several Corvette and Camaro wheels. THe ZR1s for instance had like a 60mm...

I'm looking for a set of 17" wheels - preferably 5 spoke, multi spoke or basket weave - I am not a fan of < 5 or 6 spokes. Let me know if you have a set!

ok, so where is the thermostat exactly? I got the upper hose pulled and undid the bolt to let that cresent peice come lose, but the peice that the hose goes on to won't come out...its behind there right?

So, I get up this morning at 5:30 am and de-ice my car. Well, I get to driving and my blower is making a whining sound...then a rumbling sound...the perfect time for a blower to go out, huh? How hard is it to replace one? And, is it worth junkyarding for one?
