Re: Silicon Hose Supplier

these guys are cheap as hell, but I've never ordered from them so I cant attest to the quality (or lack thereof)

no more saab?!

well I for one would be a least a little happy to see the big three go bye bye (or at least pull their heads out of their asses a litl'), but did you guys see this? http://www.nytimes.com/2008/12/03/business/03auto.html?_r=1&ref=us To make its case for the loans, G.M. said it would make top-to-b...

Re: Front Suspension Shims

Yeah, i mean 1.5 to 2 positive, wasnt sure what the convention meant... I havent made sure the car is level yet, but i checked it on a few different surfaces and both wheels seem to be in that range, but i will definitely do it properly before i mess with anything. It sits at least an inch high, but...

Re: Front Suspension Shims

So got one of those gauges, the long one. Havent gotten all scientific with making sure the car is flat etc. but preliminary results indicate that the are 1.5-2 deg. in the wrong direction, thinking i need to get some height out of those springs before i get really involved. Is it true as the travel...

Re: Front Suspension Shims

Guess its alignment time, i got it with a bit of toe in now, definitely an improvement, but still funny. Does that economy camber gauge only work on the the hub? ie with the wheel removed? Seems that i should measure with the suspension loaded in order to see where it really sits, $30 is a great dea...

Re: Front Suspension Shims

Anyone else have experience with screwey ride height after a motor swap? I ...

Re: Front Suspension Shims

I finally got around to checking my toe this weekend, it was off about .75" (toe out), I used a piece of electrical conduit with a couple of pieces of steel strap with some pointy screws in them to pierce a piece of masking tape, rotate the wheels 180 deg and then recheck. Got it pretty good no...

Re: Real Sport and Rally Fender Flares

Hey, REALLY dumb question here, buut will these things allow for a wider set of tires/wheels (with the proper offset of course) or are they just to keep gravel from being sprayed all over the place? This is my second post so at least I'm officially a dumbass. I have an 80 99 that I'm tinkering with,...

megasquirting

I have the v3 pcb and an msII daughterboard, havent gotten around to putting it together yet, so no code loaded at all. I think i really just got sick of chasing down gremlins in the LH, seems like diagnosis mostly consists of replacing stuff til' it works properly!

Its an 87' motor with the 2 wire AIC, i'm planning on getting the pintle valve stepper motor they sell for idle, seems like ...
