I don't know if anyone here remembers me, but it's been a good 6 years or so since I posted here. Also before anything else, I'd like to briefly say thanks and RIP to Ray Urso (1wykdmk8) for helping me out and getting me into the Mark VIII crowd in past years, he deserves the shout out. I no...

I'll start off with the bad news: The Mark VIII is gettin put away in storage for about a year until I start my classes at Wyotech... Good news: Just recently Purchased a Blue '94 Chevy C/K Pickup 1500 with 86k miles on it. Came with full 2.5" exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers (actually sounds...

Anyone here running any kind of winter tires and is there any kind of tire that anyone would recommend? I've been looking at the Michelin X-Ice, and the Bridgestone Blizzak. I currently have the rims still on my car and I got stuck in a horrible snow storm the other night and it was TERRIBLE...

I've been thinking about joining the local volunteer fire department here and I was just wondering if anyone here has any fireman experience and also what you think about it.... also, got any of the lights on any of your cars? pics?

Could someone tell me where the Idle Air Control is? Description or diagrams works... Thanks in advance!

First pic - Original Second pic - Lowered, Tinted... got rid of the backround cars because they frustrated the heck out of me -First attempt at photoshop

Just curious of what kind of cars everyone has raced, and won or lost. Street or track. This includes you caddy guys too. I'll start us off. -Early 90's Cadillac Eldorado (dead even until about 40, and I pulled away) -Previous generation Nissan Maxima (Hate to say, this was really close but...

*Disclaimer* I know street racing is bad and am aware of the consequences, if anyone is offended by street racing, do not read on. Okay, I was just curious what all you guys think... a girl at where I work just got a new G6 GT and she's about convinced that she'd whoop me, but I personally...

Well as I was on my way home from my girl's house this morning, a message on the message center came up "Check Engine Temp" so I looked at the gauge and it was right under the "H". so I was flippin' out and got home in a hurry... I popped the hood and engine coolant was bubbling out of the cap...

Well I went through my routine to pump gas at the local Texaco after work last night. I went to go in to pay, then when I got back into the car and tried starting it, it wouldn't do anything. Turn the egnition, I just get a silent little "click" and all the buttons light up and the stereo comes...

Okay... well the "Check exterior lamps" message keeps coming up on the message center.... and sometimes my left turn signal goes like NUTS. It'll work, but blink REALLY fast but the right one hasn't done it at all. Funny thing is, it only does it SOMETIMES. I'll be on a long ride and it won't...

Well, first off I want to say, UNBELIEVABLE! I can't believe the gain in power. The car comes out of the hole WAY faster and also has much better mid-range response. All this is followed by a real nice and firm shift into 2nd gear. Doesn't really bark the tires, but is noticeably WAY firmer. It...

Just found these on my computer and decided to post them. Note: these are NOT me, just videos that I have downloaded over time off Mark VIII boards and sites, I give all the credit to the authors. (even though I can't remember who they all are)...

I ordered my 3200 RPM stall converter today. I just wanted to say that I was real impressed with the service over the phone. I had a 20 minute talk with the guy just making sure he knew what it was that I wanted and what kind of performance gains I should expect. He said I should expect low 14's...

Does anyone know where I can get like a 3200 RPM stall converter for less than like $700? New transmission going in my car soon, thought I might do a higher stall converter as well, if I can find a decently priced one. Any tips or suggestions would be appreciated

I personally think my transmission is going, but I thought I'd run this by you guys first... when I punch it..... it hits the rev limiter in 1st gear then won't shift..... then when I drive normally, it kinda skips over second gear...... and when I shift it down to 2nd, it'll go, but slip...

Well, retarded me left the fog lights on all night last night... and the battery is about as dead as it can get. I have to use the actual key itself to get into the car. But the thing I need help with, is what kind of battery to get. I sadly don't know a thing about batteries. The local jiffy...

Well the full 2.5", double X pipe exhaust is on... but it sounds like a freakin rice burner. Most def. the mufflers I have on there. I like the performance gain... but it sounds way too much like a ricer. I want more of a deep throaty tone, any suggestion of new mufflers?

Well my car is roughly 9 years old and I think it's probably gettin around time to replace all the O2 sensors. But does anyone know where they all are and how many there are on a MKVIII? Only one I know about is the one on the throttle body tube... :feedback:

http://bradbarnett.net/mustangs/tim...itt/bullitt.avi Just thought I'd post it here, I personally love watching it. Although the video quality isn't very good, but it shows the WHOLE thing. Doesn't take long to download and it's about 8 1/2 minutes long... so enjoy.
