    Gen 1 mods - cold air intake, exhaust, cooling, and brake lights

    I just took my wife's 95 to COTA. It has Roe high flows and 3" bullet muffllers and it was loud! It has always been obnoxious (heh, heh), but it hurt my ears that day even with a helmet on. You may want to go with a 2.5" system. Maybe some 2.5" stainless round mufflers (not bullet). You...

    CF Wrap and stuff...

    Treesnake, Did COTA come after you for $1250/ft for that armco you smashed? Just wondering how tough COTA is going to be and if its going to be worth risking going to the track if they're gonna be all pissy about their stuff.

    Fixed my A/C for $4!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    My '95 has a leak at the schraeder valve. Dodge only wants to sell me the whole line, but I sure would like to replace just the valve if I could find the right one. I bought a pair from Advance Auto, but they don't fit. If anyone knows where I can get the proper schraeder valve I would sure...

    Inspection fail - what to do

    I am always having to go on a long drive in my Jeep SRT to get it to pass. 60mph for 6 minutes or something like that to allow the computer to check all nec parameters.

    Third time on the dyno.

    slither, Those 3.55 gears are gonna knock a few hp off your car due to increased friction over 3.07s. I've seen 5, sometimes 10hp due to the 3.55s. Also, my '97 made more and more hp the more I abused it. You'd think that car was a red-headed stepchild! It liked lots of track time and miles.

    looking for hardtop parts

    GTS001, I had some rear clothespin latches off a gen I softtop, and I made and aluminum adapter plate to set it in place. Not sure of the alignment, as I need to have the front hardware in place before I can check that. I've been looking at the front situation more and more. I'm gonna try to...

    looking for hardtop parts

    Do you have a damaged or abused hardtop? I would like to buy it or the parts off of it (latches and maybe other stuff) gen 2 preferred, but I could probably work with gen 1. let me know what you've got. thanks

    ACR sport cups on GenII

    I also run the cups 295/345 on my car, but 18s all around. fit just fine. I've got 11" wheels up front, but don't see a problem with 10" wheels either.

    looking for forged pistons 3.995/4.000

    Well, nothing really panned out for me over the past week so I bit the bullet and ordered a set of pistons from ROE. And they do NOT come with rings:rolleyes: Lots of thanks to Will over at RSI for turning his shop upside down trying to help me out.

    looking for forged pistons 3.995/4.000

    I wanted to put .001 mains back in my engine, but the crank grinder went off on his own and ground it without even talking to me! And this is supposed to be a decent shop, too (about 100 miles away from where I live but they have weekly pickup and delivery in Austin). Even if they do good...

    looking for forged pistons 3.995/4.000

    According to Archer Racing, sometimes the 3/4 rod bearings don't get enough pressure (they have a fix for that however-tapping and running an extra oil line from somewhere secret to somewhere secret). I was running full oil level, had the trap door oil pan. Car overheated 2 yrs ago on the...
