    Rosie attacks the second amendment

    I pretty much figure if someone is inside of 21' from me, and acting or doing something that is dangerous to me, they get shot when I'm armed. End of discussion, and whoever is saying "I'll just disarm them" is full of shit, and will end up dead trying that manuver. I reccomend you stand...

    Rosie attacks the second amendment

    I just don't think having an armed populace is a bad idea. Sweeds and the Swiss would agree with me. (I belive it's the law they have to keep a fully automatic military rifle in their house, and know how to use it.)' Pretty good deterrent to crime when the owner of the house your breaking...

    Rosie attacks the second amendment

    I've always said gun control was a steady hand, but seriously the bad guys love places where guns are outlawed. (Look at Washington DC. Guns are banned there, and it's one of the least safe places to live in the USA.) Here in the Intermountain West, I love owning guns. :) Keeps the bad guys...

    Border Patrol - Yeah Right!

    That's too funny. Our borders are so full of holes it's not even funny. I've been saying it since 911, and somewhat even before then, but it's just a matter of time before some Islamic nut job detonates a nuke here on US soil. (And using Mexico as the route to smuggle the nuke into the...

    Welcom to the industry, Tesla Motors

    500 charge cycles. Using your example of every 5 days of use adding up to "one" cycle, this adds up to about 73 cycles per year, assuming you do no more driving than your commute to work, and the trip to the grocery store. Reality is, people use their cars for long trips on weekends, and...

    I dyno'd too! (October 14, 2006.)

    .28 is the best compromise I've found yet. Generally does not blow out spark under high boost, but has enough spark to run nice and smooth at idle and around town. (Fewer misfires at low/mid range use.) I run Iridium plugs. NGK's IIRC and Moroso wires. (Ok, wire, but any wires in good...

    More global warming

    Like I have been saying for years, but only for a short while on here. Global warming is a flawed theory, and it's been proven wrong time and time again. The computer models have NEVER once gotten the weather right. They can't even predict weather accurately out past about 3 or 4 days, so...

    WTF is Bitron 4 Real?

    Well, the whole idea of polarity and how various fluids and coatings are either attractive to oil, or repel it is pretty cool. By treating oil (hydrocarbons) or using ones missing electrons like you state, they will make it stick to metal like a magnet. (Should be really cool with this and...

    I dyno'dtoday

    This is on the GT4088r right? I'm hoping for slightly more out of my MP T-70. Nice numbers all the same, but what's up with your Eman? Are you running the Ultimate or the blue? (I used to have the blue and E-01, but plan on running the Maft-Pro now.) Post up a dyno sheet or two so we...

    drilled vs slotted rotors.. or neither

    LOL, actually it was slightly more than 4k when all was said and done. The rear was more than the front because at the time, it was not even done before. (The first 3 versions were done, and from what I've heard, they will not make any more unless they are pre-paid.) I also don't really...

    drilled vs slotted rotors.. or neither

    Slotted is the only way besides just a smooth stock surface. (No slots, no drilled holes.) Just cross drilled rotors IMHO are not the way to go. Your losing swept are and not getting much in the way of cooling from the holes. Much better is slotted to de-gas, and wipe the pad face clean...

    purple crap on and around rear coolant line

    I don't know how old your hose is, but if you have any cracks, just replace it. (Cheap insurance.) I like worm clamps better than the wires, but both will clamp these stock hoses fine. Other option is to run some "Bar's Leaks" in your cooling system... but that's the only stop leak I'd...

    Screw coil overs, I want a Bose suspension

    Very cool tech, and I remember reading the article about this a few years ago in Car and Driver. (I belive it's been around for about 3 years.) The problem is BOSE stuff is very expensive, and while I'm sure they have shown this suspension system to many auto makers, nobody has paid the fees...

    The (old) Official Gun Thread.

    9mm is not a problem if you use the right ammo, and put two rounds center of mass, then finish off with one to the head. (allways train double tap, then final tap... LOL) I've owned a Tarus PT92 in 9mm for years, and it's a great gun. Have a stock 15 round mag, a larger 17round mag and just...

    whats the point of headlight washers?

    Only have used them a few times, and only in the winter time. (When I used to have one car, the Supra, I had studded snow tires on RAV4 steel rims, and summer tires on the sawblades... then my MK4TT rims..) They work great on snow and ice build up. (Seriously a problem when your driving in...

    What kind of intelligence do you have?

    Your Dominant Intelligence is Spatial Intelligence You've got a good sense of space and how the world around you looks. You can close your eyes and "see" images. You have innate artistic talent. An eye for color and shapes, you're also a natural designer. Since you think in pictures...

    HKS Knockoff - anyone know the vac fitting size?

    So plumb the top port into your manifold, and put a short screw into the adjustment hole to plug it up too? Don't see a need. (When I apply compressed air to the lower port, it opens the valve, and I'd think when the boost control opens the solenoid, it will open the valve using pressure from...

    Painting valve covers

    Can't take credit for the muffin pan idea. (The shop who did the machine work, and allowed me to assemble the final motor in the off hours uses many of these pans for every engine that is being worked on.) They basicly have many motors in various states of rebuilding, and they keep each one...
