    Happy 4th of July

    I just wanted to wish everyone a happy 4th. I have not been able to come on here much within the last year due to my busy schedule. A couple months ago I was hired as a federal agent and now I'm in training in Virginia. Hopefully when life settles down a bit I can spend some more time and money...

    Hello All!

    I just wanted to say hello again to everyone since I haven't been on this site in like 6 months. I need to check in more often, but I have been very busy with other things including new hobbies and job opportunities. I hope everyone is well. Shaun

    Anyone live near Tampa?

    I've lived in North Tampa for the last few years and really enjoy it. I hope to hit a few car shows this Fall/Winter when the weather cools down. I just need to get the car cleaned up. Maybe I will see you there.

    So...I Joined A Gym...

    I find the best thing to do is a good routine of heavy weights on a regular basis. I work each muscle group every other day for 20 mins. I do benching, curls and dead lifts on one day, then butterflies, overhead lifts, and weighted situps on the next. I just simply rotate that schedule every...

    Gasoline smell!!

    Gas leaks can be hard to track down. My car had a strong raw gas smell when I popped the hood or when I parked it overnight in my garage. Turns out the FPR was leaking. Gas evaporates very quickly so a small leak will not be noticed except for the light colored stain it leaves. Check all the...

    STANGERS BEWARE!!!!!!

    Never ship through someone you dont know. This is an old, old scam. Always ship them yourself through Fedex, UPS, or DHL.

    URGENT: Speedometer gear

    To do it right you need to replace both the drive and driven gear. The speedo will be dead on then. I have the part numbers if you need them.

    cobra brake impressions

    They will get better with time. I have the Brembo 4 pistons with the 13" slotted rotors (e.g. 2000 Cobra brakes). They were not real impressive when I first installed them, but now after 100 miles they will pull my eyeballs out. I think adding a larger master cylinder would make them even better.

    mileage

    I get around 22-23mpg on the interstate cruising at 75-80mph. In town though I only get around 13-16mpg because I give it plenty of throttle. My Explorer only gets 17-18mpg in town...haha

    suspension ?

    I have the KYB adjustable AGXs up front, Edelbrock IAS in rear, and the B springs. I love the way the car rides and handles. I wish it was a bit lower sometimes, but if you drive yours daily you will appreciate the higher ride height. Some springs should definitely be a first mod for...

    Cobra Brakes FTW

    I never knew how bad the stock 94-95 brakes were until I took my buddy's Z28 for a spin. After that I knew I had to get better brakes. Im running the 4 piston Brembos with 13" slotted rotors and SS lines. They keep getting better and better with each drive. Im glad you like the Cobra brakes...

    Bad axle bearing?

    Yes it can. My car keeps eating the driver's side carrier bearing for some reason. I have had it replaced twice. It is the only install I haven't done myself and also the only one I have had problems with:rolleyes: I dont know what to try next. The first time the bearing lasted about 2000 miles...

    HELP! no power after vortech installed

    Did you install the ACT sensor after the blower discharge? That needs to be installed after the MAF but before the blower intake. Im surprised the car even idles. You also need to install the FMU, the timing retard, and the extra pump before you grenade that thing.

    Lost to an '04 Vette, HELP!

    When racing side by side it is all about the ET, so traction means everything. The vette is about 150 lbs lighter, but you are putting at least 50 more hp to the ground than the vette is making at the crank. Hook up properly and you should be the one way out in front. I raced my friend's...
