thnx.. yeah it was the only place that would be interfeering with me at all. and still nice and visable and easy to get to..

i didnt think i would like the shifter placement either, but for hard driving.. which i dont do much, its great.. its close to the wheel, and makes quick shifts a breeze. its pretty fun to drive for a little sport compact.

gas will go up, food will go up, everything will go up.. the only thing this bill does is fuck the middle class people in the ass.

if anyone is using the fm modulator.. what station do you guys use. righ tnow im using like 103.3 thats what they told me to use, but i get some static

pics of the sirius installed, bes tplace i could put it in this car. all wires hidden. i think i did a pretty good job. http://img2.freeimagehosting.net/uploads/d2df41ef05.jpg and some misc pisc. i clay barred it, scratch remover, polish, and wax. it was pretty clean when i got it, but i wanted too get a fresh start. and make sure it looked as good as it can. http://img2.freeimagehosting.net/uploads/843e0c413d.jpg http://img2.freeimagehosting.net/uploads/259efe3017.jpg http://img2.freeimagehosting.net/uploads/960d004a6b.jpg http://img2.freeimagehosting.net/uploads/e0cbe8e348.jpg

that was my first option to buy a new civic, but i dnot like how much it depriciates pullin goff the lot, 2nd this was cheaper, 3rd when i buy a new car it will after im actually employed through honds. right now i am temping through a company. once hired ill buy new and save almost 4k on a new accord

wont be doin gthe suction cup mount. so do i actually run the wire through that rubber molding from outside to in, or will the wire be exposed at anypoint on th eoutside of the vehicle

hey i would have kept it if it didnt blow a spark plug ou tof the cylinder head and break a coil pack and strip the head out... i temporarily fixed it and traded it in. now instead of 13mpg ill get 30

and in its place is now a 04 Civic SI with 32k on the clock. silver with black interior, microsuede and cloth, 5 speed, sunroof. drives great, is peppy for a 4 banger, gets excellent gas milage, handles pretty damn well, and the sport bucket seats are amazing. not as cramped as i thought i would be either, but alot tighter fit than the explorer. has 100k mile power train warranty, is honda certified and has a 48k bumper to bumper. i will get some pics up sometime when i get a chance, and its daylight out. now off to the garage to install the sirius satellite radio i just bought. anyone else install one before. my only concern is how to route the damn antenna. i have the new starmate 4

talk to eric, he did a 408 windsor thats pretty nasty

nope.. someone is getting them tomorrow.. thanks for all that replied

yes i did.. trading in on an 07 civic coupe

rob can i set my 5 lug stuff up at yuor booth?? let me know

ill be trading my explorer in on tuesday and it will make no difference on what they give me for it having the 20s on it. so if anyone wants a nice set of 20s with good goodyear eagle gt2s heres yuor chance. they will fit explorer or ranger 2 or 4 wheel drive. they are 20" eco evos in chrome i would like $400 and your stock wheels and tires. definately would like the wheels and tires to be off an 02 up exporer, but might settle for ranger wheels if they are nice. and they will probably have to be 4 wheel drive wheels. this is going down tuesday so better hurry. i will swap the wheels and tires off in my garage.

well its not that cold in my garage lol.. but yes i hate doing anything but routine maitenance on daily drivers. and i upkeep both of our dailys very well. oil change every 3k, fuel filters when called for, plug changes wehen needed, air filters, wires, tranny filters and flush.. brake pads etc... i try to get to the problems before they start. im not saying a car isnt going to break down.. but shit like this is ridiculous. this isnt a minor issue. dont get me wrong.. i love the explorer and if it didnt have certain issues, and be known for serious problems i wouldnt get rid of it. but ill be glad to see it gone and have a known reliable car in the garage. and it makes me even happier because i build these cars. i probably wont be buying one that i actually help build, but its nice to know what goes into the car from the ground up and how the company handles problems on line as they are built. nothing is just let go. if there is ANY minor defect it doesnt leave. i have a new respect for hondas and the company since i have worked there.

i would assume around 100k area. ive read a ton of horror stories now after this incident happened to me. mostly they are the 5.4s and there is somoen trying to get a class action lawsuit against ford. also i hear alot of bad things about the coil on plug packs going bad. had one go out on me previous of this incident. and at $70 a pop it isnt cheap. also the rear ends will eat up bearings, or if you have an irs vehicle the axel seals will be shit in a short period of time. also the explorer transmissions are junk. im one of the only people i know that has an 02 + explorer that hasnt had the tranny replaced. ford SUVs and trucks are junk.

yeha im not worried about hondas reliability at all. and the warranty will cover pretty much anything. its not just the plug.. its the rear end crap, its the faulty trannies i hear aobut, its the 4 x 4 that gets fucked up. theres too much shit i hear about these explorers not that i ahve one. and i want to get out of it before it al lcomes down, leaving me with a hunk of shit i still have to pay on. ill buy a new honda and have piece of mind that ill be able to make it to work and back

did the thread insert tonight.. not a heli coil. a steel thread insert. will be trading my explorer in on an 07 civic 2 door coupe will not own another ford product besides a mustang ever again.

id really rather not pull the head, but i probably will. and i i did some research online, and most have said after a shop had helicoiled the plug hole, 3 months later the same plug blew out again. i will never buy another ford besides a mustang ever again

yeah. i had to drive it, i had a trailer on the back wiht a 4 wheeler, so i couldnt get a tow, and i couldnt leave it sit. so i unplugged the one injector, and jsut dronve on 7 cylinders. now its currently in my garage with the hood up. ive been lookin gat the thread repair kits, but since its in the top of the cylinder head and you have about 6 inches of space to travel till you hit the plug hole, and its only big enough for a spark plug socket to fit into, i cant find a repair kit that will work withought yanking the head off. i need some advice and fast. and i dont have a grand or so to throw at it right now

is this still available???

so on the way home from belmont ohio, im towing a 4 wheeler for a friend who just bought it. just a an 05 honda 400ex on a 4x8 trialer. in my 02 explorer v8. get to about easton on 270... and my explorer starts making a hideous noise. i pull off immediately. pop the hood. and what do i find out??? 3rd plug back on the driver side is laying on the valve cover, and the coil on plug pack is hanging there... call my wife to bring out som etools. and get a new plug. it wont thread in. stirpped the head out. how the fuck do i fix this???
