Re: REDLINEZONE Indiglo Gauges

I really didnt want to get into taking off the needles because I knew that would come back to haunt me at somepoint.. But I find it strange your gauges arent working right. I dont know what could be causing that. It was totally a math equation to get the heat and gas gauge face to go over.. Man I am...

17' Rims

Yeah so I bought these 17' rims for my car with 40's on them. The car handles like a dream but today someone told me that having rims on your car is bad for it because it is not designed for them .. I think that this is a load of $hit. How could the rims be bad on the car? it dosent come with them b...

Re: 2.0L 626

2.0L 626

If I had a 4 cyl out of a 626 would it fit into my 4 cyl mx3? what would I need to be able to do it... what parts? or would I need a 626 with the back end totaled or something so I could take every bit from it... some feedback on this would be really appreciated =)

Re: Removing speedo cable

When I put my gauges in I was plauged with the same problem and when you reach up under the dash there is a plastic clip on the cable that seems impossible to get off but what I ended up doing was like turning it and it just clipped off... be careful not to break it, I dont want to have that hanging...

I only got...
