I had my engine replaced at 29K because of low compression in cylinder 3. IIRC, I've read of at least one other instance of this on this forum.

On the threads to the bolts that go through the shifter plate and stock plate and attach to the rectangular weight.

Blue JBarone Shifter Plate Installed mine today. I think I still need a minor tweak in the center console shift mechanism, but other than that it works as advertised. More effort is required than before, but the shifts are more precise. I do wonder about long-term effects of the boot rubbing...

Installed JBarone shifter plate. Will take some getting used to, but I think I'll like it. Shift effort greater, but it's much easier to hit 3rd now.

Well, the audio is mostly greek to me, but you do have excellent taste when it comes to brew (he says as he downs the last of his Dunkelweizen). OT, I know, but I finally had a Sammie that I couldn't stand, and I must warn all Sam Adams lovers who have not yet experienced it. It's their most...

Just got the car back from the dealer - they said nothing was wrong with any of the suspension components. They did a 4-wheel alignment. Looking at the old and new values, I'd say that was a waste of 90 bucks. Everything was well within spec to begin with. I guess I need to take a look at some...

I think you're right, but it looks to me like the sway bar itself is also bent. Shouldn't the ends be vertical? So I have to replace this stuff, should I go aftermarket? I'm sure OEM would probably cost even more... Opinions welcome. I don't autocross or drive excessively hard, so I'm not...

I think I might be in the market for one real soon. Too bad it's not available yet.

Installed Redline hood lifts. Sweet...

Finally... left and right shown below. Does that look normal?

Well, I've tried ten times to upload pics. No joy. Maybe later...

I was feeling some vibration in the rear end (of my car - gotta head you guys off). I figured a tire was out of balance. I am getting uneven wear on the inside of the right tire. Got home and took a look at the rear suspension. Something looks amiss... See the attached photos of the right and...

Thanks for the advice, guys. I'll pass it along (although he's 18, so I doubt he'll listen).

PaPaSpeed, you just cost me $137! Ordered some last night. Actually it's not your fault - seems every time I can't sleep and get up to surf, I end up buying something ;)

I hope it's not degreasing soap like Dawn. That will strip every bit of wax off your car. In fact, it's the recommended first step of the Zaino treatment to get the car back down to base before claybarring.

Hey guys, My son had an aftermarket stereo installed in his Mazda3 (not by a professional) about 2 months ago. He has been telling me lately that occasionally when he makes a hard right, he loses all electrical power momentarily, power steering loss, etc. He also says that his car cranks a...
