    Strange exhaust note near cat, one tail smokey, one wet

    I took it out for a drive. In all gears, when I first put throttle on, the sound (which is like an old VWbug, a quick rattling) is very noticeable. The sound stops after i leave the throttle on for a little. In 5th gear the sound is very noticable around 2000rpms. It doesnt stop.

    Strange exhaust note near cat, one tail smokey, one wet

    So then. Recently my 99 GT with flowmaster aftercats (not sure if the system was done full, it was done before I bought the car) has started making strange noises near the cat. At idle, and worse with throttle there's a loud ticking/strange exhaust note coming from near the cats. *MAINLY*...

    Car Alarms

    is it easy to install alarms? I'm considering a Clifford Matrix 2.5x ... Although you get a lifetime warranty if an authorized Clifford dealer installs it.

    wrecked

    yeah, it was a really pointless waste of money. I am going to lose a lot of money on this. The past couple days before the wreck, I put in new rotors, pads, new clutch and 2 new tires. All money wasted now... Though I'm lucky I didnt die, losing all this money, and feeling like an...

    wrecked

    oh yeah.. I didnt really get hurt. I got a small scrape under my chin.. (from the seatbelt i think?) A pretty big hit to my forehead (from the mirror) And a small bruise to my knee and legs. I'm very lucky... though if I was REALLY lucky I would have never seen that R32 and raced it :[

    Speed in bottom of fourth gear in stock 95gt..

    I was racing someone and backed off around the bottom of 4th.. How fast is that? I didnt look down at the speedo. I'm pretty sure it was a VW r32 (240hp v6) and I got him pretty good. not bad for a stock car (except I bumped my timing to 15 and ran 91 octane) so anyone know what mph that...

    OT - Election Day..

    I'm 20 too, and this will be my first year voting. I completely agree with you.. People are shoving the entire "Vote or Die" "You better vote, all these men died just so you can have the PRIVILEGE to vote!!" in our faces WAY too harshly. I'd rather have people make an INFORMED vote and LESS...
