    Pennzoil Ultra Euro 5- 40

    Not at all, Allan. Just carrying on a conversation. You are so correct about peoples "likes" for a certain brand being based on "dad used" or worse yet, what "the board all swears by". I am not a follower or a fan-boy of any brand. If it works, it works. I think most peolpe today listen to...

    Pennzoil Ultra Euro 5- 40

    Wow, sounds like our experience in auto industry is very very similar. Scary almost how much so. You mention sludge. I have never seen or heard of any engine developing sludge from the oil itself. It usually comes from extended, overly long drain intervals, engines not getting up to temp, or...

    Pennzoil Ultra Euro 5- 40

    Why not? Something bad going to happen? You have any real proof, or you also drinking the Kool-Aid? My God, if all those who cry "This oil is bad", or "This oil filter is bad" had any real proof, how come you have not gone and shown it to the manufacturers in question? The sky is...

    WOW 1st Corvette sells for MUCH more than 1st Gen 5 Viper!

    If you are going to write a book about him, at the very least get his last name spelled correctly. Hendrick..........no "s" at the end.

    WOW 1st Corvette sells for MUCH more than 1st Gen 5 Viper!

    I guess the gold chain wearing Vette owners either have more $ or care more about charities.....or both.

    WOW 1st Corvette sells for MUCH more than 1st Gen 5 Viper!

    The Vette was being sold with $ going to charity. Rick Hendrick gives big $$ to charities, so no surprise here. Was the $ from the Viper going to charity? Not if IIRC.

    Found a new toy, anyone have one of these portable lifts?

    Painful to watch. That guy sounded like he was about to have heart failure and keel over. Talk about needing exercise.

    Monday we find out who is faster at Laguna Seca, ZR1 or Gen V

    Please ask him if he got them in the U.S., and also where. Thank you. I know more than a few of us are waiting. Not that this will really help me as I am waiting for Tire Rack to get in my new O.Z.'s and that also won't be until spring.

    Monday we find out who is faster at Laguna Seca, ZR1 or Gen V

    In bold above. So you are saying that the MPSC designed for the P-car is slower than a regular MPSC? Why would Michelin do such a thing?

    Monday we find out who is faster at Laguna Seca, ZR1 or Gen V

    You are showing a pic of the new Trofeo R that is not even out yet in the US. Spring '13 is what I heard. *The "regular" Trofeo is said to be 2 seconds a lap faster than the MPSC on a 2min/lap track. The "R's" should be much better yet. * P-car racers.

    Dead battery after only 4 months in the car

    That same one has kept my one trucks battery alive for 9 years now. The stock one Dodge put in no less.

    Dead battery after only 4 months in the car

    If you use a Deltran Battery Tender, don't even woory about it. Plug it in and forget it. I use them on everything I have with a battery. My cars, trucks, ATVs, PWC, tractors. Never once had a problem. Now if you use one of the cheap China brands like they have from HF, well just don't. Is the...

    What are your thoughts on PlastiDip?

    Sorry Ryan, wasn't meaning for it to sound like it did. I know it is temp, but was just getting how I feel across. I don't expect you to go ricer. ;) You always have classy looking cars void of "fluff".

    What are your thoughts on PlastiDip?

    Looks real nice but.........PlastiDip? OK only if you just want to see how something looks. If you want to use it and keep it that way, break down and get it done right. Don't go ricer Ryan. Look at any ricer board and every other thread is PlastiDip this or PlastiDip that. I even hate...

    What do you guys think of this brembo kit vs srt10 breaks

    Unless Brembo changed the way the make rotors, theirs are NOT drilled, but have cast in holes that are later chamferd. Then again, why would you want Brembos.....not like thy are use on F1 cars or anything :rolleyes:

    Free - Stock Gen3 Cat-Back. Before I bring it to recycler

    The cats are worth $200 min for the pair. That is if you have the cats also.

    Junkman Discusses Sealant/Wax Applications - Including the Hype!

    EDIT: Why use the Z6? Wouldn't the use of it over the Sealant you are using slow the "curing process" that the sealant requires? Does the Z6 not leave some kind of "coverage, or is it like water and just "wipes" right off? If that is the case, why not just use some water in a spray bottle...

    Carbon Mamba at E-town Mopar Nationals!

    Seibon is some of the worst crap out there. I would not even put that ricer junk on my Subaru.

    Kicker KS6.2 & CVT65-4 speaker install pix & review (along with Alpine CDE-102)

    I have/had used that same Alpine head. While it worked fine, the menu and using it was a real PITA. Press this, hold that, count to 3, release this, bark at the moon, etc. etc. etc. Hope you have a better time with it than I did. Got fed up with it real quick and bought a Kenwood. Does all...

    Marine Grade Sta-Bil

    Why the attitude? Well I guess you told me. What, I don't know. Maybe you should learn how to post and use the quote function before you try and school me. So, as someone who winterizes 100's of internal combustin engines each and every year, keep believing Seafoam is a form of stabilizer. I...

    Marine Grade Sta-Bil

    V10, if I can ever help in any way, just ask. Always willing to help out when I can. 7869]Use "Sea Foam" and be done.. Sea Foam is so 1960's Read the MSDS on it and then you decide what good it is. It's just some oil and a mild "cleaner". As far as being able to work as a stabilizer, it...

    Marine Grade Sta-Bil

    Use it. I am pretty big into the PWC scene, and do some boating. "We" are having tons of trouble with Ethanol in these. Stabil Marine is the only thing that helps worth a damn. Regular Stabil will work fine, but the Marine grade will just be an added bonus in your car.

    Gen V and Pirelli

    Things I should have noted, I get my alignment checked every 10k also. Rotate every other oil change (5-6k) I would not say I am a Pirelli fan, just happen top use what works for me. Mind you, if I was going to race in some way, I would be using a tire best suited for the type of racing I was...

    Gen V and Pirelli

    Hmm....Pirelli's were on my Ducati's, never a problem. Great tire. Have Scorpion ATR's on my truck. 50k and counting. Correct pressure and rotation helps here. P-Zero's on the last... I don't know how many cars I have had. Never problem 1. Maybe I am lucky, or maybe some just don't have any...
