Ya, I figured that out when I did the swap. I just failed to mention that in my statement. Good catch, this thread needs that information.

I just replaced mine as well. I ended up prying my door open (no paint and a broken door hinge). I bought a door and new latch in the For sale section here. I was able to swap my latch out without removing anything but the access panel. It took about an hour, mostly because getting the cable...

There was a cop lurking, but he laughed for so long you guys were gone before he took off after you.

Why not go 4"

Neo can make adustments every 50 RPM, where the SAFC2 is every 100. It also can control your V-Tach, and change colors. Thank you for the reprogramming criteria. I need to check my serial while my car is down.

Spend $25 on a DrJones Manual Boost Controller, and take the shims out of the wastegate. My car got 12-14 pounds of boost out of a Meagan downpipe 2 1/2" inlet, 3" the rest of the way out of the car, intake, and MBC. I may have gotten better, but hit fuel cut usually around 12 1/2 PSI. Then I...

They use a flat stone disc to lap both the head and the block to a certain RA value. I can't define RA, nor do I know the proper value you need, but somebody will chime in with the value, and you should ensure that your machine shop is capable of being that precise. As I understand it, domestics...

I just posted in that thread that his coolant looked like straight water

Thanks for leaving the picture ISNMS. I have always been confused when reading about this, and have never searched enough about it to see that. One day I will be doing a motor, and that picture will stay in mind much better than words.

It appears the previous owner used straight water in the radiator. Next time you need to remove that hose, it is much easier if you remove the water neck first. Even then, it can still be a manageable pain in the arse. Mine have worm clamps on them. You can access the one near the head from...

Congrats to all of you guys! One more piece of advice. Find someone that spends a lot of time with you, and tell them to bitch slap you if you ever try to light up. Tell him you don't care how big a dick he is about it, it won't affect your friendship. Say this only if you mean it. All the...

2 fucking beautiful cars! How bout that. Now on the car you've had a while, is that a Targa Top, or a Target Top?

Same here. I use a half inch ratchet, and bow up on it. I have never had a problem with that method. I'm sure there is a torque spec, and you might even be more comfortable using that though,

Welcome Tyler! All the info you will ever need is already posted here. But don't be scared to join in with the community as you go. This place is better than most other car sites that I have ever been to.

I liked what I saw at the SP shop at CHI2K7. Very nice, and knowledgeable staff, with several beautiful shop cars. The only thing I didn't like there, was the guy dynoing cars disrespecting everything but the MKIV in front of that many people. I thought it was classless to say the least.

Go find Tekdeus' build thread, and read through it from start to finish. Then ask him questions on what you didn't see explained. His car looks better than that PS if you ask me.

You either have will power or you don't! If you are WEAK, you will succumb to the addiction. Hold that over your own head. Remind yourself of how WEAK you are when you try to make an excuse for why you just have to have one. 1 = WEAK!!!!!!!!!!! Do this to benefit yourself. There is probably...

I can't disagree with any of that! Quake where have you been?

It is a shame, but I have done a complete study, and one of those cannot be read on the forums. You can type in all the humor you want, but it is just words in type once everybody else reads it. I hate to type in a joke, and come back to see that the only one who saw the humor was me, and I have...
