    EBC Reds Squeal Like a Pig..Is it normal?

    Prior to swapping pads, I read about 10 different "proceedures" for bedding pads and/or rotors and guess what. Everyone's proceedure is different.

    EBC Reds Squeal Like a Pig..Is it normal?

    Just want to add that the only reason I swapped pads in the first place was to get rid of the squeal that had developed in the OE pads.

    EBC Reds Squeal Like a Pig..Is it normal?

    My experience... 1 - EBC red with original rotors = squeal 2 - EBC red with original rotors after rotor resurface = squeal 3 - Hawk Performance Ceramic pads with new rotors in front, original rotor in back, and dampening grease on the back of the pads as well as every other metal-to-metal...

    That's cool. By next spring/summer, you should be able to get into a 2005 for $38-39K

    Getting serious about a SRT-10 purchase, but I'm 6'4" 250 any input?

    That Ultimate Whips TV show had a Viper on there a while back. It was owned by some really big guy who was having the seat bolsters removed. They took an electric bread knife and sawed off the bolsters and installed all new custom leather. The finished seats looked like black leather slabs...

    Some awful substance on the paint.

    Detatured alcohol should take it off and it will not remove the paint.

    Clunking from the rear when going over bumps?

    Just want to throw out there that when my passenger side seat belt is tangling behind the passenger seat, it rattles against the plastic piece behind the seat when I go over bumps. Took me a while to figure out where that noise was coming from.

    As usual, I need help...

    Typical fuel injector pictured below just like ours. How the heck do I get the connector off past the 2 nubs on the side. As usual, there must be some type of "secret" locking mechinism that I can't find and as usual, service manual is no help.

    Anyone ever replace the convertible top?

    Is that price just for new cloth reusing the old frame or is it for the whole ball-o-wax? Someone was selling a complete top on ebay from a salvage car claiming new tops cost over $10,000.

    Spark plug wire length

    As usual I, broke my #9 wire trying to get it off. I've got a spare #10 on there now. Anyone know of any issues running a #10 wire on the #9 plug. The #10 is about 4" longer than the #9.

    Are my gears hurting me?

    Here are a couple of my slips. Somewhat apples to oranges but as you can see, your fine in the 2nd 1/8 mile. The first 1/8 miles is where you seem slow. R/T .033 60' 1.999 330 5.260 1/8 7.896 MPH 94.55 1000 10.183 1/4 12.075 MPH 117.96 R/T -.124 60' 1.950 330 5.195 1/8 7.818 MPH 95.19...

    HELP! Our ignition key WONT turn. Its "frozen"

    The exact same thing happened in my Ford Focus 2 weeks ago. Did a Google search on "Ford Focus" "key won't turn" and came back with about a million hits. Very common problem for the Ford Focus. The short-term work-around as I learned on the Internet was to lightly tap on the end of the key...

    Best way to tint the taillights?

    Last time I checked, he was a no-go for SRT-10 Verts. Also - if you use film, it's my belief that the little lettering on the lenses needs to be ground off in order for the film to lay flat. It's for this reason I gave up on the idea of tinting since I didn't want to do anything that couldn't...

    Nice pic of my Viper I got in the mail

    It's worse than that. It's actually unconstitutional since you can't cross-examine a machine.

    Go to court and ask to see the calibration report for the machine that recorded your speed.

    Roe Red Radiator Hoses

    I had one on the upper. Under pressure it "weeped" thru the plys and bubbled up next to the clamp. Was it anything to worry about? Who knows. I pulled it off just because the constant smell of coolant made me nervous.

    A little gem from a longer article that needs it's own thread....Rare Gen 2 values...

    Re: A little gem from a longer article that needs it's own thread....Rare Gen 2 value The $45K originally spent on a 93 wrapper car would be worth $148,811 if invested at only 8%. In another 15 years, that $45K would be worth $492,100.

    Billet Fuel Cap

    I bought this one from Snake Oyl and was going to put it on just for a car show I was attending that week and then take it off after the show. Car show judges love cheezy-looking bling. That was about 2 years ago and I've had it on ever since. I really like it and think it looks great. If...
