    Where to get a 1" lowering kit?

    I don't see that partsrack.com sells the 1" kits anymore, just the 2". I am about 6'1" - 6'2" so I am considering just going with the 2" kit, but am not sure I want to lose the adjustability (not sure why I care since it is all the way back). Does anyone sell the 1" kit anymore?

    Chuck Tator for President 2012!!!

    Hey all, I haven't posted on here in a while. I've been too busy with life AND I have been without my old pal Sneaky Pete since June! Fred Beans Dodge in Doylestown, PA sucks! I always brought my 96' GTS to the local viper tech, a big mistake (if anyone is near Doylestown, PA then stay away...

    GTS ground clearance

    So the a-holes in my neighborhood association decided to put in 9 speed bumps within 1 mile of road! Immediately upon hearing this I freaked out, worrying that my 96' GTS would scrap it's nose. They assured me that the bumps would only be 3" in height and plenty long so it won't be a problem...

    brake upgrades before roe sc

    Hey guys...I am thinking, safety first, so I am looking into upgrading my brakes prior to bolting on a roe sc. However, I have a couple of questions: 1. Will there be a noticeable difference in braking power from oem to slotted brembos? Even if I don't track it? 2. Is it feasible to put abs...

    roe sc drivability

    I am sure I will fall in love with the extra power from a roe install, but am concerned about losing drivability. Is the car still easy to drive at low speeds or does the added low end torque make it clunky when going slow (I know, who goes slow...but I mean through a city w/ traffic lights)...

    Car & Driver 96' GTS issue

    I want to buy back issues of Car & Driver, Road & Track, etc. of 96' gts reviews. Does anyone know what the date of issue is for any of the above? Also, anyone know where I might be able to find a back copy (looks like C&D only reprints 3 years back)?

    HELP! no power from battery and car is outside

    Pulling gts hood down

    Bernie at BJ motors just recently dropped off my brothers rt/10. While I had him there I had him look at my front fascia. The hood is 3-5mm higher and I want to get it perfect (if possible). Bernie said the fascia can't go any higher so the hood has to come down a little. The rubber bumpers...

    I've known for months now that my passenger door outer weather stripping is cracked. I've been waiting for summer to replace. The other day, I noticed the driverside stripping is completely gone! I am referring to the hard plastic strip on the outside of the door that is on the upper black...

    ticking sound at idle when clutch is out

    Ive been noticing an odd sound (like metal brushing metal) when the car is ideling. It goes away when I drive (maybe due to additional noise?) and when the clutch is to the floor. Should I be concerned? Any thoughts as to what it might be?

    Any pics of a GTS w/ CCW 505A wheels and 345/30/19 Pilot Sports?

    I have been trying to hunt down a pic of a GTS with CCW 505A wheels and the 345/30/19 Michelin Pilot Sports. I am trying to decide between the Pilot Sports and P0's, and I thought I had my mind made up until another forum member pointed out that the p0's don't fill the wheel well too good...

    Veyron w/ Michelin Pilot Sports 365 wide!

    I am swapping out my wheels and 10 year old tires. I have been in the hunt for the best tire. I stumbled upon a Road/Track article on the Bugatti Veyron, which has some big ass Michelins! I'm guessing tires this wide aren't available to the regular public? While I'm at it, anyone have tire...

    aligning front bumper and hood

    My front bumper appears to be a bit lower than the hood. I talked to Bernie at BJ Motors (where I bought it) and he gave me some great tips on what to look for...After adjusting the hood rubber stoppers to the lowest position I decided it must be the bumper that is lower, not the hood being too...

    remove door panel for stereo install?

    I have the infamous door rattle when the window is down. I am getting a new stereo system installed and was curious if taking the door panel off is necessary to install new speakers. If so, I can kill two birds with one project...and I love killing birds.

    what car to buy?

    My brother is tinkering with the idea of getting rid of his highly modified Mistsubishi Evo for something more dependable. We were racking our brains for other options. He was thinking old muscle car (which I told him would handle worse than his infiniti sedan), he also considered the new...

    Help: driverside window rattle

    I am working on fixing the small things that bug me about my 96 gts. My driverside door makes ratteling sounds, but only when the window is down. I am assuming it is the window, but am unsure. Has anyone has this? Is my hunch accurate? I have a family friend that owns his own auto shop...

    which HID kit?

    I want to upgrade to an HID kit, as there are too many deer in my area. I heard some have been happy with R and J distributing's kit, but wanted to hear others thoughts on what to get. Also, I like the bluer look, but is 8000K ridiculously blue? R&J has 6000K or 8000K only.

    shift light or shift beep

    My previous car had a shift beep from the factory. I mainly see shift lights when looking online, no doubt due to the noise from some of these monsters. I want to keep the car looking stock so I was leaning towards a shift beep, but wanted to hear others thoughts. Also, any particular brands...

    when are perelli\'s 355\'s going to be available? I like the idea of having even wider tires than stock and I hear the Perelli's are expensive, but super sticky! Does anyone have any idea when they will be available again? No one has them in stock.
