    Runflat Tires (aren't so bad)

    Re: Runflat Tires (aren\'t so bad) Much has been said on this subject. I have cursed these tires for many reasons, but as Kai, said, they are very good tires, considering what they are. If you test these tires on a road force balancer, they will scare you. No quality conventional...

    The ultimate identity theft?

    I can't spell worth a damm, nor can I punctuate. It's sort of embarrasing. I wouldn't use that as a guidline. Sounds like your using that as a measuring stick of ones credibility. Most men can't spell properly. I use spellcheck most of the time, but I don't waste the time, as I feel comfortable...

    Left, front quarter panel paint ?

    Nelson, I think it best not to let the Dodge dealer mess with this. Take it to your local Benz or BMW dealer, and let there paint and body crew do the wet sand and compound on it. The Dodge dealer may not have a good enough crew to do this simple fix correctly. It really doe's take a skilled pro...

    Any update on suspension besides Motons?

    Me and Brian have been through a lot with the Aldans, and have them setup the best they will ever possibly be, and they do sort of, "get by", but they are far from perfect in my opinion. For there cost, they are hard to beat, but they just don't have enough piston travel in the rear, and still...

    Spark Plug Recommendation

    Ron, as a rule of thumb, cars with such power adders will do better on a plug one step cooler than oem, but their are so many factors. If your dogging around in heavy summer traffic, spirited driving much of the time, and where is your F/A ratio at. Experiment, and you will get it right. If the...

    Help with question on new K&N on my Viper?

    Nelson, no need to remove the battery cable, but there is a trick to getting the air temp sensor out of the oem air intake. I have heard to use a lubricant as it's somewhat difficult to remove, but I don't want to get anything like that on the airtemp sensor, so I take a razor blade and cut a...

    Rim question of the day

    D, I really would not be bothered by the one inch loss, unless you are into roadcourse driving, but to keep the handling at it's best, you need to reduce the tire width apportionally. Be carefull when you do this as a reduced width number on the tire will also bring down the highth of the tire...

    Can you drive the SRT without its sidesill???

    I've drove without the sidesills several times to the muffler shop. I made the mistake of telling the muffler shop what the sidesills cost, but I had to remove the sec. cats anyway, as he wouldn't. Watch your leg getting out of the car, it'll third degree your leg. At the time I had the skid...

    How bad is it to rev your car?

    The facts are that reving the engine without load, to high rpm,(redline) is far worse than under load. It's the main bearings and main caps that take the worst of this. When drag cars do a burn out, they let the car go into second on an automatic, and not to obtain more wheel speed, but to...

    Cops keeping taking my damn money :(

    Ricky, I can tell you exactly what the problem is, and it's not where you live. Your age is your enemy. Cops are many times more likely to watch you if your young, and in a car like this thats another reason you are getting pulled over. You haven't aquired that sixth sense of when to get on...

    Alice mentioned the magic word,"midrange" This is very absent in the car, and if this speaker has improved that, and with no sacrifice to other freq. ranges, I think it's great. I want to badly to get a little closer to true flat response in the car. Well I want to get a lot closer, but this may...

    Trunk Problem!

    I minor adj. should fix it. I had to sort of slam mine shut, a bit harder than I liked, and sometimes very hard. I adjusted the striker, and all was well. You would think the oh so heavy beast of a trunk lid would latch with it's own weight. Heaviest trunk I ever seen, and it's made from...

    Driver door doesn't color match!

    Re: Driver door doesn\'t color match! Muzz B you will not have to paint the complete car, think about it, the door doesn't have a relation to the front fender, and the rear quarter has near zero with the trunk. Yellow is very easy to match. Did the body shop really tell you that no one in the...

    Sound Clip of Corsa Exhaust w/ Random Tech Cats....

    Yes a track system will set set off alarms, but it would be nice if we could here the freq. range right above the level that's setting off the alarms. That freq. range is missing. This is no doubt due to the fact the systems pipe diameter, but then how doe's it produce it's subsonsic sound. I'm...

When you see them in person, they are nothing like they are in a picture. I'm not saying this becuase I have them. I will put a set on my next car. I sold my...

    Quaife installed, what a difference!

    Dan, we will all go to this before it's over. I've preached it for years, to bad I'm not selling this setup. I know this is one of the top mods you can do to the car. Torque Biasing diffs. can save your life also. Some restricted racing classes, outlaw this diff, as it gives an unfair advantage...

    Should I be Pissed?

    Dan, I think your car is lifting on you, but I heard the SRT's and even the GTS, had very little bump steer? Do you get that washed out feel in the front end? The optimal front toe setting is to go a little outward on the front. I hate to do that, but what I did was go to the end of the range...
