    Suspension Bushings

    Hey, does anyone know a good source for a bushing kit for the MSP? I'd like to replace as many of the bushings below the car as I can this winter in an attempt to bring her back to glory. Not sure where to start in this adventure... TIA

    Had a little accident yesterday and my left-hand taillight is busted pretty good. I'll buy a full set if I need to. Going to be a quote on the body work this week. Thanks in advance for your reply.

    Need the Suspension Gurus to Chime in Here

    I am all about setting a car up correctly. I think there's a nice balance to be found with our cars - a ride not so harsh it rattles your molars out, but not so soft you wallow around a turn. I've always been disenchanted by aftermarket coil overs since all they're really good for is lowering...

    Which HID kit to buy?

    I'm rockin the CDM P5 headlights now and would like to eventually upgrade to HIDs (not projectors ATM) for the low-beams. I'll probably stick with either 4300k or 6000k lamps and would like to use D2S bulbs. What kits work best with the P5 headlights and H7 connector, while offering good...

    Carbon Fiber Resource Thread

    I figured we have this massive thread on the 3M wrap, but nothing on people who work with REAL carbon fiber. This isn't meant to be a pissing match between the two, but rather a resource for people who have the time and ability to work with the real thing. Feel free to post any carbon fiber...

    The Ultimate Roller Coaster

    Took some vid while I was flying the other day. The airplane is a Bellanca Decathalon with a 150hp engine. Fully aerobatic with inverted fuel and oil systems. Badass to fly, even more so to toss around! Enjoy! <object width="853" height="505"><param name="movie"...

    Wheel Spacers

    Hey guys, I want to put 10mm spacers on my stock RH's to give a little more aggressive look to them. 12mm would be ideal, but I read that you can usually only get them in 5mm increments (true/false?). Anyways, where can I find a good set of them for springtime, how much should they run me, and...

    Gig the Salesman STRIKES AGAIN!!!

    So around this time of year, my dad and I always like to go to a couple of dealerships, posing as potential buyers in order to score test drives in cars that others might not get. In the past we've driven Aston Martins, Ferrari's and Maserati's. Yesterday, we might of out-did ourselves...

    Lens Questions

    I was bored at work today and am on Amazon.com looking at lenses and have questions: Is the 50mm f1.2 really worth double the f1.4 really worth double the f1.8 lens? If I were to get a better wide angle lens, should I go for the 17-55 f1.8 IS or the 17-40mm f4L lens? What tele-converter lens...
