  2. Draco, I like the interviews with drivers/team principals/etc....some of the shit they say is funny as hell. Actually Kimi is the featured story this month, and I'm sure there are some funny quotes in there. There is a lot about the lifestyle, but I like the interviews, pics, and how stuff works.
  3. i'm just a shadetree.....so the ASE certified mechanic ^^ may know better than me :fa: Either way, once you figure it out, please let us know what it was.....

  5. Harbor freight sells them, or I'm sure one of your buddies has one http://www.harborfreight.com/non-contact-laser-thermometer-96451.html Rebuild is fairly simple. Just a little messy with the brake fluid, and you have to bleed brakes after. If you can replace caliper yourself, you can rebuild yourself too. Just tryin to help you save $100 or so......depending on price of new/used caliper At least, wash your wheels and see if you get more dust buildup on the one side...
  6. yeah, sounds like your caliper is sticking. I rebuilt my caliper after I noticed some of the similar symptoms. Try washing both of your wheels, and then drive the car for a few days or a week, and then look to see if you have alot more brake dust buildup on the side you think is in question. Also, do you have an IR gun? after your commute home, check the temps on each rotor. If the caliper is sticking you should get a higher temp reading on the rotor. Do they sell a rebuild kit for your caliper? The one for mine is dirt cheap, it's just two new rubber seals that you have to put in. Hour or two hour job depending on experience.
  7. Definitely a fan of Grassroots, for sure my favorite, because I can relate and actually afford most of the cars and projects they do......most :thumbup: Roundel (comes with BMWCCA membership) the tech section is fantastic, but this magazine is probably only interesting if you own the brand Euro Tuner - I like this one because it's not a total Ricer mag, like so many others and they just finished an E36 project car which was fun to read about European Car - meh, it's ok....getting a little ricey for me Racer - I like this one because I am Motorsports junky and it keeps me up to date on all of the series I watch and follow (F1, WRC, DTM, etc, etc) SportsCar (comes with my SCCA, some good articles, and keeps you up to date with all SCCA events and results) F1 Magazine - enough said for me....I love F1 I had never heard of Race Car Engineering, I'm going to check that one out :thumbup: I'm defintely a 'how does that work' guy....... What about a magazine specific to the type of car he owns or tinkers with? Does he like to modify his car?
  8. Oh, nice..could be a good project for a single speed or fixie......

  11. Anytime. Just make sure you read the forum rules about the classifieds. They don't like it when you bump your thread inside 72 hours or else they will delete it. Let me know when you build a thread and I'll jump in there and bump ya as a good seller.

  14. thanks for sharing....so sad to the city like this.....
  15. I've had this one for about 13 years now, and still have yet to replace the filter (typically I just shake it out and throw it against the ground to clean it out) I vacuum my car and my wifes car about once every two weeks, sometimes more in the summer. When this one eventually dies, I'll be getting another one. http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_00917967000P?prdNo=9&blockNo=9&blockType=G9
