I'm selling all 4 brand new connecting rods from a 2.3 Disi Motor. I literally ordered the blocked and when it arrived took the rods out and put aftermarket ones in. These have 0 miles on them and have never even been turned over. Rods come numbered so you know which one goes in which chamber...

Just wanted to let everyone out there know what happened to mine. The mechanic said the rod and block had to be messed up for some time since I've heard the "ticking" noise for a few thousand miles. They found this when the clutch went out and they replaced it and and it was still making noise...

I have a stock MS6 clutch with a ceramic plate upgrade which should hold 30% more torque and have twice the life. Haven't been able to test it out yet, my engine popped at the same time :(

Turns out it was the clutch and it threw a rod. Now I just have to figure out what to do with it.

lol, yea. Figures.

Yes. I know they do not MAKE the clutches but provide us with SPEC and ACT. I just said I was looking for some other alternatives besides what SU and PG provide. And yes, the stock clutch is fine but I don't know why mine has gone out twice now. I purchase the car with 22k miles on it and the...

I'm not saying I have over 350+. I said I don't think ours is rated for that and that's what I'm shooting for here soon so I don't want to get another stock replacement. You are correct with saying I'm at about 300 or a little over. My car has 52k miles on it and the clutch had less than 20k...

There's always a risk of running any AP that isn't a stock AP with or without mods. But to answer your question, yes there is risk but minimal at most. I drive with economy on 90% of the time since I work from home and only travel from Columbus to DC (well PA but I then drive to DC the next...

My clutch was slipping for a few hundred miles (not severely) but I didn't think it would go as fast as it did. I was downshifting from 6th to 4th @ 60 MPH and all of a sudden I heard a pop and then grinding. Now, when the car idles it sounds like a metal on metal sound. I can still shift and...

That's what I was thinking as well. After taking it to a few places I got a measurement of 6/32 on my tread and the used tire is 7/32. After doing the math it's only going to rotate a few (+-3) due to the size. Everyone is saying it's won't be that bad but if I am worried to keep it on the...

Actually we have some good options for springs. Eibach makes springs for our car. Pro Kit (I have and love them) and Sportline (they drop it 2 inches which is to much for me). Do some shopping around and you could grab them for $180 to $250 shipped. I like Pro Kit because it gets rid of that...

Yea. That is super cheap. I don't know much about KNS Brakes but I know rotors and Pads will cost you upwards of $1000.

no prob. The cracking doesn't happen that much and usually only happens with poor quality rotors and heavy heavy heavy use. But probably like you, I'll be sticking with solid rotors with Hawks!

I'm getting to that point as well. And I've been doing some reading on these forums (There is A LOT of info out there). I'll sum it up quickly. Getting rotors for looks isn't the best idea. How they perform is MUCH more important. Imagine slamming on breaks going 80MPH. I think I could really...

I got a nail in the sidewall and I have to replace it since it's so bad (Fix a flat didn't work and it goes flat in about 12 hours). I still have 5/32 or a smidge more of tread left on all the tires. I found a used tire that has 7/32 tread on it, yes it's the EXACT same tire I have. Yay Ebay...

Awesome! Thanks for the quick response. I'll do some reasearch, find a price, and swap it out. Hopefully it will be easy enough.

As the weather gets colder it seems I get more problems with my car. However, last year my car was perfectly fine until I drove it into a guardrail from hitting black ice going about 15-20MPH. This year tho my car has been showing a light display on my dashboard. The ABS, Traction, and DSC OFF...
