    17's or 18's?

    Just curious if any one has pics of cars with either size? I would really like the bigger wheel, but it only narrows down DR choices and I'm sure it doesnt help traction. I just feel like 17's were the hot ticket 5 years ago, but not sure about hooking on the 18's. Really looking at a black...

    1st time to the track in 5 Years!

    It's been a while since I've made it out, but it was worth the wait. Was looking for the elusive 11 sec time slip and ended up going 11.42 @ almost 118! Was pretty stoked with that since I know she's got more in her (only 20psi). Here is a break down of the slip: 60'-1.694 330-4.691...

    IAC, TPS, idle shenanigans

    OK after headgasket replacement the car has idled rough, and sometimes not at all. The IAC is really high reading in the 90-150 range, the TPS wanders around (.36, .44, .38, .42. etc) with just the key on, when I unplug the IAC this stops and it is steady at .38. I tried to get the IAC down but...

    Won't Idle

    I replaced the head gasket, and now I cant get the car to idle right. Once it gets moving its fine, drives fine. It's not really throwing any codes, it threw a low MAT voltage once.

    Car not running, fuel issue? Ignition?

    Okay long story short, car died on me and left me stranded. It had poor fuel pressure so I replaced the filter and it ran fine for a while (3-4 min) then died again. I pulled the tank and drained the gas, cleaned the pump sock, and replaced all the rubber lines by the tank. Same thing ran good...

    Few ?'s

    I just talked to my tranny guy and he told me that he cant figure out what is wrong with my tranny:confused: . He thinks there might be a crack in the case because he puts it together and pressure tests it and it tests fine. When he puts it in the car it "loses pressure" and has inconsistent...
