    Moved not NW PA and I need a drag track!!

    I just recently moved to Edinboro, PA - about 15 minutes south of Erie. I used to like 15 minutes from English Town and just as soon as I was geared up to get into dragracing my family moved. What's the best track 1/4 preferred but 1/8 is ok too I guess. The closer to me the better. I'm...

    Capacitor specs?

    I need to know what the stock specs are for the capacitor inside the turnsignal flasher unit. Mine was altered by the PO and the specs on it are 10mF 50v. This makes the signals switch every 3 times as long! That's way too slow!

    Pinging that I can't solve.

    Well, my motor sounds like paint cans. :( On my 96gt (111,000miles), I can't give it any gas or it sounds like marbles in the motor. I've tried seafoam about 4 times, did FI cleaner, sprayed out the maf, put in some gas moisture remover and still no improvement. I bumped up to 89oc and it...

    Got new wheels.. PART 2!

    All you bullitt haters can take it elsewhere. Excuse the dirtiness of my car. It's usually very clean - to the point where some people say I've got a compulsion disorder. All day today was a torrential downpour and the sun popped out so I quickly snapped a ton of pics. I'll have better ones...

    Tire mounting/balancing in central jersey?

    SN95's with 03 cobra wheels (pics needed!)

    So I think I'll be getting some 03 cobra wheels (17x9's with 275's and 17x10.5's with 315's) for my laser red 96. But first I want to see some pics of SN95's with 03 wheels to really reassure myself that this is what I want to do. $1k is a lot of money for an 18 year old. If you have any...

    Alternator voltage problems..

    While my car is running the voltage reads 13.6V at the battery. I believe it's supposed to be between 14-15volts, correct? Is this a sign that the alternator is going out or could it possibly be the voltage regulator? Thanks.

    I'm replacing my driver's side axle and now I've come across a problem. I opened up the diff housing and all that and I got to the bolt that holds the pinion shaft from sliding out of the differential.
