    Now that you have this wisdom...GO GET CUSTOM MATS. If you have ever had a prooly fitting mat make your pedal stick to the floor...you would know why. (it happened to me...twice)

    Does painting IC reduce efficieny?

    WOW:aigo: Holy shit. I love those coatings you did. I think when I get my turbo upgraded I might do that to my manifold and hot side as well because I am unable to run heat shields with my divorced downpipe. Thanks for the ideas. EDIT: I just went to tech line coatings and I see the Turbo...

    license plates

    Agreed^^^^. I cant afford anything more than liability and it would be pointless for me to have it. They will only pay out so much for an 18 yo, mass produced sports car. If you are worried about it...set that money aside. If you do get in a crash you would probably have enough to buy a new...

    paint job

    I've seen that before but it still has some problems for the inexperienced people. You then have to deal with flash times and other difficult aspects of painting. I know that rolling is not even close to ideal and will not yield the greatest results. However, with this approach to painting, I...

    paint job

    I don't think I would try this in a parking lot. To get the best results you would want to take off the hood and hatch and basically strip the car. This is like any other paint job except the application process is different. Also, there is alot of contaminants in the air being blown around...

    Does painting IC reduce efficieny?

    Only colour that should be on an intercooler is black or silver IMO.

    To invest or not to invest more....HELP

    I have been thinking about what it would take to get the Mk3 out of my drive way and its a pretty short list. Right at the top of that list is the C5 Corvette coupe. Its 350 hp stock, has a removeable roof, is very receptive of mods and it has come a long way down in price. You can pick one...

    paint job

    I have the car to do this to but I need to do many hours of body work first. My project Mk2 was bought for $200 with a running engine and a mint interior. All it needs is body work to fix some rust and then paint. When I get time over the next two years (University is monopolizing me), I...

    300zx

    When you say 300ZX you have to be more specific. That can either mean a good looking car thats hard to work on or one of the ugliest cars of its era. I hate late eighties 300zx's however their engines go nicely in a 240Z. Oh...and wrong forum.

    Does painting IC reduce efficieny?

    Thats what I was thinking. I will just do one coat on the core to make it look black again and I will paint the end tanks with multiple coats. Thanks for the help.

    Does painting IC reduce efficieny?

    A little background. My current intercooler is stock. I recently bought a set of intercooler hard pipes so I am trying to do my entire intake system at once. I will be pulling out the intercooler to flush it completely but I noticed that it looks like hell. The car recently had the front...

    any porshe/ferrari/lamborgini kills

    Some punk kids were out in their daddy's Carrera. They were driving along in an 80 km zone at the speed limit so I pulled out to pass them but left it in fifth. They down shift...so I did too. I went by them...HARD...I guess I expected more from a late 90's Porsche. I can't wait to get a run...
