    ABS delete question on brake lines

    Ok, real simple. I'll be re-doing all of my brake lines. Only thing I'm wondering is should I do equal length lines? That was my original plan, but I'm being told it doesn't matter.

    exhaust piping/resonator recommendations?

    I'm still open to the possibility of buying an exhaust off of someone, but the custom rout is looking far more likely, as people are just too flaky and selfish these days.... I'm not made of money, but I'm not trying to do a poor job... are there any material recommendations or specific...

    I remember the days....

    When I'd find killer deals on here almost every week. Ridiculously clean shells that'd make your eyes bug out for $200-$400. Killer deals on parts... you name it.... crazy enough to make your head spin. I grew up poor, and I've always been poor. I bust my ass for the money I earn, but it's...

    groaning noise in rear

    My buddy's 89 supra has developed a noise in the rear... not sure if it's drivetrain or suspension related... anyhow as he described it... he said it's binding up like a gear sync issue or something when accelerating from a stop turning left or right.... but he said it goes away once he...

    alright time to debate

    here it is guys... I'm looking to make a nice street set-up. I'm already dead set on using the stock TB and intake manifold... but concerning torque and response I'm assuming you would want a cast exhaust manifold... (please correct me if I'm wrong) but the real question is what turbo to...

    1zz-fe cooling system?

    I'm trying to get some air pockets out of the coolant system in a 2008 corolla. The rad. hose was knocked off by the battery when it shifted to the left (car slid off the road). Anyhow, I can't seem to find a bleeder valve, and I don't think there is one. I've done everything I can think to...

    what do you do when you feel like the biggest idiot?

    words cannot express how I feel... I feel terrible... I won't go into details, but I did something incredibly stupid (not stupider than normal, but the outcome was catastrophic) and in examination, the events that led to this catastrophe were a series of incredibly stupid decisions (caused by...

    car's having running issues? need help

    The car is a 87 non-turbo w/ a 89 turbo motor, wiring harness, and ecu. All clean. The car acts as if it's running in open loop ALL the time. It will lean out like crazy at idle (19:1-15:1 afr) I'll tap the throttle to make it rich out so it won't run hot, and sometimes it will idle right...
