    wheel offset question

    Well, if you're trying to make a +35 a +40 with spacers it's not going to happen. A lower offset number pushes the wheel further toward the fender (which is what spacers would do. I think a +35 in the rear with 9's is about right. +35 in the front on 8's will be fine too, but will probably...

    Have we talked about this body-kit before?

    uber means "over, above, across, etc.", except it's supposed to have an umlaut, that's probably why it didn't translate. Das Auto gefällt mir nicht.

    My new supra.

    Nice car. So was that one Jake's? I remember him saying that the blue one was actually Heidi's and that he drove a black one. My fiancee's brother bought a red 1990 turbo from Jake/Heidi last year. It's been a great car. I still have yet to meet them in person yet though. There are a few...

    Economical Mods?

    Well for reliability you should make sure your head gasket is in good shape. If you aren't going for much power you could just retorque the head bolts. You should pay good attention to your cooling and oiling systems as well. For improving fuel mileage reducing restrictions in the...

    Anyone get this spam email...

    Well, it's not really a traditional pyramid scheme because he's not saying to do the same thing to 100 other people. (though it is kinda implied) It's closer to begging. Damn, SC beat me to it while I was typing my reply. :icon_razz

    Daylight Saving Time

    Maybe, depending on the way they adjust for daylight savings. Some actually synchronize with a server for your time zone, instead of just blindly adding/subtracting an hour. However I would suspect those electronics would have updated at the right time. Ones that don't synchronize with a...

    Here are the laws on tint by state. The Colorado one has two rows, I guess you can do one or the other? http://www.iwfa.com/PreProduction_copy(1)/consumer_info/auto_statelaws.html

    Temp Gauge

    I had the same thing happen when my water temp sender went bad. Did you check to see if the engine was actually overheating? If it was hot enough the coolant overflow tank would boil. Could be a bad thermostat too. Also could be a blown head gasket. Any other symptoms besides the gauge?
