• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

    Aeroforce full install

    So I know the easiest way to install the scangauge is with an add-a-circuit, but say I don't mind splicing wires, would there be a good wire to tap near the A-pillar?

    Upper motor mounts

    So my engine was replaced (trans split in half, and apparently took the block with it) and now that the warranty is up I started tinkering under the hood and found some big disappointments. First, the EGR wasn't connected, which I knew about because it had been deleted from the previous engine...

    Engine Declutter Questions

    Random quick question; when removing unnecessary parts from under the hood, like lifting eyes or brackets, is there any reason to replace the bolts, or can the holes be left empty?

    WTB A/C Compressor

    Need an A/C compressor for my '03, just found out the front face is cracked. :th_shakinghead2:

    Ticking at Startup.

    Well I got my car fixed, but after an unfortunate day driving all over Kentucky and Tennessee I found the ticking had returned. It's not the same sound though, as it's more similar to the pat of a lawnmower and it goes away after a few minutes of running. Anyone know what this could be?

    Automatic Window Switch

    Just as a random thought, would it be possible to replace a regular window switch in my car with an 'automatic down' switch like the driver's window switch? Just thought it would be nice for all the switches to have that functionality (or at least all the switches in the driver door cluster)...

    Transmission Shot

    So I'm pretty sure my transmission's shot, but at just under 180k I guess I'm not surprised. Aside from slipping and erratic shifts it's also making an obnoxious rattling. I initially thought it was rod knock or lifter noise, but I noticed last night while parked with the window down that it...

    Stuck Bolt

    Ugh. Any advice for removing the downpipe when one of the bolts wont budge?

    Anyone Used This?

    Has anyone used one of THESE (or something similar)? Is it worth anything? Is it sufficient capacity?

    Considering Turbo, Suggestions?

    I'm considering going turbo, but up until now all my research has been into supercharging as I planned on a top-swap. I'm looking for suggestions for turbos/kits and supporting mods. As of now I'm thinking HV3, ST2 cam, A2A intercooler (suggestions?), 60# injectors, 180* T-stat, LS1 TB, and LT1...

    Red Gauge Cluster

    Anyone know where I can find this gauge face, or at least what it's called? I've looked all over the web and can't seem to find it.

    Wbody Store Headers?

    I know there's a million threads on headers, but I couldn't find anything about these and the search function is lacking. Does anyone have the Wbody store stainless steel headers, or know anything about them? They're pricey but look nice and I'm thinking might hold their shine better than the...

    Weird Window Issue

    When I first bought my car I noticed that while I could lower the rear driver-side window from the driver switch, I couldn't raise it. My first thought was a weak motor, however from the rear driver-side controls I can't lower the window, but it raised no problem. That was in February. Now it...

    Rattling Noise, Sounds Like a Diesel

    I've been getting a rattling/grating noise during acceleration lately. I don't really know how to describe it other than it sounds vaguely reminiscant of a diesel engine from inside the car, though not as loud. Again, this is only heard occasionally and usually only when accelerating in low...

    Whine

    I think this is transmission, but it's just an educated guess so mods please move as necessary. While accelerating sometimes my car makes a whirring sound similar to an electric motor. It sounds like a blower at times, though somewhat quieter and generally goes away at higher rpms. The sound...
