I have listed some stuff on ebay since I sold my GN. Easiest way to find them is probably to search by seller "ezatnova". The GN items are all I am selling now. The stuff is priced really low. Buick Motorsports window decal GN keychain GN license plate new oxygen sensor (Tomco) 2 stock...

I'm contemplating switching to the Translator route, but, I'm not understanding what all I'd need, and therefore, the total cost. I'd need the Translator unit, a MAF (maybe the 3" will allow me to keep all the hoses I currently use??), connectors?, adaptor plugs? I can't seem to find a vendor...

I just got the car back tonight after paying a ton of money to get a new converter put in. Everything felt great at first except idle was a bit lumpier than usual. Car ran fine though. 10 minutes later I got on the gas to see how it behaved and again it was fine. After I slowed for a few...

Less than two years ago, I had my tranny rebuilt by Performance Transmissions with a 3000 stall street/strip setup. Since then the car has made 2 or 3 passes at the track one time and maybe 2000 miles of cruising around. Last summer when it was very hot once or twice, I noticed the car was...

I've noticed recently in my 2002 WRX that when I press the A/C button, the compressor sometimes does not come on at all. Other times it comes on, but only for about 10 seconds, then shuts off. I thought this was an issue so I took it to a shop this morning. They just called saying this is normal...

I've had Nationwide since I got my license at 16. I'm 25 now, married, clean record. For some reason I thought I'd check around for lower rates since my Nationwide hasn't dropped my rate since I bought my 02 WRX when I was 22. Progressive is coming in much cheaper, around $640/6 mos for my...

Last year was my first NASCAR race (Dover) and noobs that we were, we brought normal sized coolers which were promplty taken from us at the gate for being too large. We were left with 60+ beers in plastics bags that got warm real quick. :( This year, I want to do it right, but the 14 x 14 x 14...

I need some quick help guys so I don't have to physically beat my little bro. I have Windows XP Pro on my main desktop here at home. Everything was fine with it, and my brother went to install something that called for drivers, ended up finding my XP Home edition disc that came with my Dell...

After I filled the tank to the brim the other day, the next morning I noticed a gas smell in the garage. There was no wetness on the floor and it didn't smell in the engine bay, but the first place I looked was undernear the tank in the back and it was all wet where the neck meets the tank. I...

In an attempt to somewhat improve the filth of everything under the hood, I was thinking of getting some Simple Green and spraying that on the engine all over, then diluting some in a bucket of water and using this attachment that says it's for engine cleaning, for my air compressor that draws...

Not TR related but I need help and anyone who knows about brakes should probably know this. Changing the front pads on my jeep, the 4 that came off had no squealer/metal clip looking piece. Of the replacement mopar pads, 2 of the 4 had this metal piece which I assume is a squealer since it...

I began replacing the front pads on my 02 Liberty last night. I only had time to do the right side, but figured it was no big deal because the car won't travel much in the following 20 hours until I can do the left. I did the left tonight and now have these concerns: 1. All 4 of the new pads...

I just heard a rumor that Volvo is planning on releasing a car with a hood that can only be opened by their dealer techs. Anyone else heard of this? I would NOT put it past them. I know the S40 has a crazy oil filter CARTRIDGE to make you buy them from the dealership, and the brake pads require...

My dad's 1998 Suburban has been leaking coolant and the dealer said it was a leak in the head gasket. Hearing "head gasket" I immediately thought of what I know with the Buicks...too much boost or timing causes it to go, resulting in poor running car with smoke and bubbles in the coolant. But...

I can't find anything on the net about this problem. My electric water heater is not old at all...maybe 2 - 3 years old. Since I moved in the house a year ago, it had been blowing the fuse it was on, about every month. I then put in the "slow-blow" fuses of teh same amperage and I got more...

I have ATR's 3" crossover system and I also have a dump pipe on the car. I went to the dyno today and did my last run with the dump open. I actually made 1 hp and 2 lb feet less on that one. I guess the person I ordered the dump from at ATR wasn't kidding when she said I "didn't need it...

Dyno time coming up on Saturday. I put some 100 octane in the tank and put in my Jay C. 100 chip. I have the boost at 21 psi for now. I noticed my O2's were a bit lean (750) at lower boost levels, as I was building up lb by lb so I bumped up my fuel pressure from 43 lbs to 46 lbs. Still...

I may be doing some dyno runs for the first time next week. I've never done this before and am just looking for some do's and don'ts. The place says they do wide band O2 testing via a sensor in the tailpipe. They also allow the owner to drive the car. Given my combo (see sig) the best gas...

I have teh original shield on my car. It had some rust on it, so I used naval jelly, then buffed the heck out of it and it looked nice. About 6 months later, the rust came back. I repeated the procedure, buffing even more this time. Now, the rust is back again. It must be a moisture magnet...

When I first got my emissions chip to help me pass, I had this problem where the car would cut out under a hint of boost. http://www.turbobuick.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=104520&highlight=emissions I sent back the chip and it was returned with a bit more fuel added. I popped it...
