  1. 1. 5.0 2. Aircooled 911 engine 3. Nissan 3.5L V6 (G35/350Z/Maxima) 4. Any short stroke v8 5. Honda S2000/RSX-S at 7-8000 RPM. Not really in that order.
  2. Hey all, Changed the oil/diagnosed a hesitating problem (90% sure its the coil pack) on a 2001 VR6 Jetta with 88,000 miles. To be honest I was impressed with this car- very nice ride quality, seemed quicker than I expected, and very solid feeling, I bet it would handle ok but I didn't take any turns to notice- Shout out to you VW guys- I guess the maintenance costs may have a brighter side.
  3. Wow scott that is a good deal on the Z28.. you have been pm nitrousbird
  4. My wife drove the car this AM and she has seconds thoughts on the sale... She wants me to do the suspension and we will take it to Bondurant. LOL We will see.. those C5 z06's sure look good.... Cool wife eh? Unfortunately she is not included with the sale of the car.
  5. Out of line post I thought I had deleted before, I apologize.
  6. Hey all, Does anyone know of a website or online dealer that sells Honda parts direct? I use acuraoemparts for our acura/honda but my dad needs some parts for his Odyssey van. Thanks! Andrew
  7. whoops I thought your brother posted he had those.. my bad... thanks! I figured the batteries would be dead in the event I actually did need it
  8. wow- I am surprised they don't negotiate. I will pass. Thanks everyone Maybe its my italian immigrant roots but if you don't haggle you are overpaying in my book. Most everything in life is negotiable.
  9. All of you in FSAE- spend as much time as you can in there... never will you have the resources and time to play like that outside of college. One of my biggest regrets from my college days is being too overloaded with pre-med, molecular biology bulllshit to spend time in the shop.
  10. chris, what do you think of hte crimson trace grips? I have been considering them for my glock 19 or a streamlight tr2
  11. Hey guys, Just curious if carmax is really no haggle no negotiation or if they say that to deter it. I have tried in the past over the phone but never gone in the store... Also anyone ever gotten the bumper to bumper warranty they offer? BS? Thanks! Andrew
  12. Thanks for all the compliments and bumps! Ryan, they are MAC white face gauges I bought from 50resto.com I painted the needles flourescent orange with testors paint from a hobby shop. I am happy with them. A lot of guys leave them white but white on white looks strange to me.

  16. http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj162/hpfiend/rearqtr2.jpg http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj162/hpfiend/HoodUp.jpg Well, in search of a new project I am putting up for sale my pride and joy and three years of hard work. This car is extremely fast while maintaining excellent drivability. I bought the car basically stock and it has been built right with the best of the best. Modifications started with subframe connectors and torque box reinforcements and ended with a built 31 spline rear-end, a Trickflow top-end kit, a Novi 1000 supercharger, and a custom dynotune by Rob and Don LaSota for a very conservative 365 rwhp at only 5 psi. It looks 99% stock and I put the quietest mufflers I could find on it (tried 3 different types) and it still runs low 12s (likely 11s with traction -see timeslip) Click here for a video at idle: Click here for pictures, timeslip, dynosheet, and complete modification list. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2697057 There are not many 5.0 coupe mustangs out there as nice as this one and as carefully modified. That said, I would rate the paint as an 8 out of 10. I am asking 9,795.00 and if you are interested, please come and see it and I am sure we can work something out! I will trade + cash for a corvette only. Thanks for looking!
  17. nice- subtle. I would rather buy a perfect low mileage 04 cobra though for 26-30K.
