    GAS prices, how much is it in your area?

    You know running premium in a car designed for regular has no benefits right? They use the same detergents in all gasolines. Its not cleaner, its just for higher compressions to eliminate knocking.

Wix/Amsoil are the highest rated, and no one...

    Air vents not working properly

    If you do it yourself extremely time consuming, if you pay extremely expensive. You will have to pull the dash. Which usually means other things like the radio, and a lot of trim panels. Not an easy job, but I would do it yourself unless you have a grand to burn on time.

    Wtb: Anything and everything!

    Makes the car bouncier, makes it easier to bottom out, which is hard on your alignment, shocks, tires, tie rods, control arms. Your car wont ride as smooth or handle as well. Also remember that the shock is under pressure. Once you have cut your springs your probably going to want to cut the...

    Wtb: Anything and everything!

    Cutting springs is a no no. For any reason. If your springs sit to high then you need a different set of springs with a different spring rate. Shorter springs are usually firmer because of the obvious less travel. If you cut a spring thats meant to travel 6 inches then you have less spring rate...

    Replacing breaks and rotors, all round...

    Why is my first question? I can understand upgrading to new pads. But are your rotors warped? Are you moving to drilled/slotted? If your rotors are not warped then just get them turned and your fine. The brake hardware kit can be reused but you will need to do some other things. I don't know...

    [HELP] Unfixable Alignment Issue

    You need to find a new set of techs. I can't help you with that part but if the tie rods, and control arms are not bent then the alignment is off. You need to get under your car and see if the shock is standing straight. Then get under the hood and check to see if where the shock mounts is bent...

    flat spots on tires

    Using the wrong air pressure can do something like that. Usually when you bald spot the inside and outside without the center wearing as much your under inflating. Also if your balding the center of the tire and the outside are wearing slower than you are over inflating. If your pressure are...

    Carbon Fiber hood that would look good on Yellow Mica MSP?

    First decision needs to be Wet or Dry carbon. Wet carbon is about half the cost but will be a couple pounds heavier. Second decision is vented vs not vented. with non vented you get to protect the engine. With vented you need rain guards or engine covers but you can vent heat. On the track I...

    Cruise control question
