    Best low break dust pads/rotors?

    Not that I need to change out any parts yet, but I am getting really irritated at the amount of dust that my brakes produce. Even after a short drive with minimal brake use, all of my wheels and the lower portions of my Viper need to be cleaned significantly! My vette had the same problem...

    Any Legitimate Carbon Fiber Interior Vendors?

    Now that I have a good upholstery shop working on my interior and my stereo & LEDs are done, I am looking to replace the dash, gauge bezel and shifter bezel of my SRT with either real carbon fiber parts or overlays.

    Carbon Fiber Interior Questions

    Three simple questions for those of you who have replaced interior components with carbon fiber parts, specifically the bezels and gauge cluster: 1. In your opinion, is it worth the extra cost versus a wrap? 2. Do the parts crack/is there a particular vendor to go with for the best...

    Corsa Question

    A while back I asked about purchasing a corsa exhaust for my 04 off the bay... someone had mentioned that there were infact, 2 different models of the corsa - a newer model and an older one - and that I should avoid purchasing the older one. As I am strapped for cash I plan to do the exhaust...

    Clutch Swap

    So I am finishing up with my winter projects and it is time to swap my clutch out, stock for stock. To be honest, I can't do it myself. How much can I expect to pay/how many hours of labor are going to go into this, pending the slave cylinder is OK?

    Pioneer Stereo Installation

    So I finally managed to track down a Pioneer AVIC N5 for my SRT that looked like it was in good condition and for a reasonable price.
