    Scangauge installed!

    I recently ordered and put in my scangauge OBD-II tool. It displays the OBD-II details the computer keeps secret from you. Stuff like water temp, intake temp, mph and tach in RPMs, battery voltage, closed/open loop status, current gas mileage, and gallons per hour. It mounted quite nicely in...

    flash sigs = resource hogs

    I've noticed a bunch of people with these slide.com signatures. They're really eating up my system resources, especially considering the purpose they serve to me (nothing at all). Can we do something about this? I noticed it when I had a page minimized and half my CPU time was being eaten up...

    Chuck Norris Joke Database

    So I put together this site when I was bored this evening: http://norris.kicks-ass.net/ We made up some good ones, and added the oldie but goodies. If anyone has good ones I'm trying to get a decent collection going. I figure I can serve up a lot of them and it won't really bog down the...

    Subwoofers & Hearing Damage?

    Hello fellow audio guys, I'm here wondering about how subwoofers are linked to hearing damage. I know how high sound pressure levels cause damage to our ears, but these are usually at higher frequencies and I'm not so sure the dBa curve is the right one to use for preventing hearing damage...

    Think you can race?

    Here's a spec elise racing video. Supposedly the driver's in an older, slightly slower elise and still shows everyone up while keeping his cool. I thought some parts were scary just to watch! http://media.putfile.com/Elise72

    No brakes with JDM tails!

    I just installed my JDM tails from corksport, and the brake light no longer works nor do the emergency blinkers. Turn signals and reverse work flawlessly. When the parking lights are on, both the top and bottom red lights are on which seems to be both the brake and parking lights? Please help...

    Q. for AWR 21.5mm swaybar owners

    I've currently got tokico illuminas and espelir springs on my P5, and it handles great. It feels balanced and neutral, and very safe in the rain. I'm debating whether or not a big AWR rear swaybar would suit my wants or be a step in the wrong direction. My car is: -A daily driver -Driven on...

    Rubbing on hard corners

    I have 17x7" wheels at +45 offset with 215/40/17 tires lowered 1.5 inches. I don't rub going over bumps while straight, but while cornering hard it will always rub the outside rear fender. I'm thinking this is because of flex in the suspension, changing the camber angle enough to cause...

    Am I wearing out my struts?

    Hey guys, I have espelir springs with tokico illuminas. They handle great, and I love running the illuminas on their stiffer settings. I have it set at 4/5 stiffness all around. I am wondering if this will cause them to wear out faster than a setting at lower damping, or if the opposite is...
