    what length extention will i need to remove the top starter bolt

    i use a 6" extension and a deep 14mm with a small wrachet to sneak behind the starter leaving plenty of room under the intake for me to get a good hold on it plus a 14mm wrench to hold the nut on the back. its hard to do under the car because the nut will just spin with the bolt.

    whats everyones opinion of the suprasport.com spearco replica IC

    if you ask me they're all china knock offs. i wouldn't be surprise if they both are from the exact same factory. same with a majority of the ebay ones. i say if you want true quality get a real spearco or hks that is authentic. other wise i don't see a BIG difference between any of the knock...

    Need Help With a New Engine

    it does come down to how much cash he has. the choices are simple spend less to rebuild the 7m that will peak at about 500hp unless you really go crazy with it. then the daily reliability goes through the drain. or go with a 2jz that for the price of a built 7m will leave you with a stock 2jz...

    HKS Dragger Exhaust ?'s

    no way would i ever swap out that tip for a genaric magnaflow that sounds like fucking every busted up talon, neon, and 240sx around. for some reason i never see hondas with those. i don't see why you bought it if you don't like the cannon. i'm pretty sure the dragger has BIGGEST cannon out of...
