Posted Monday July 14 2008, 8:02 pm
hey there. i own a teal blue 1995 mustang. it's got white boss shinoda decals, with a 5.0 HO GT engine. stock it makes 215hp and 285 ft lbs tq. i bought it with a dynomax side exit exhaust system which supposedly brought in 5 more ft lbs tq, and 15 more horses.
my questions:
what can be done to increase the performance relatively cheap? i know 'cheap' and 'performance' don't go together, so ... help? lol

all in all i'm tired of everyone staring at my car, and when a ricer pulls up, its everything i can do to keep up with him.

1995 Honda Civic DX Airbags
Posted Monday July 14 2008, 5:59 pm
I own a '95 Civic DX. I've been doing some work on it, and, long story short, I need to disable the airbags without damaging them (Or trigger them safely, without actually crashing my car).
I'm a bit of a clutz when it comes to cars, so can anyone help me out?

Mazda3 4-door
Posted Monday July 7 2008, 7:04 pm
I was recently looking into my future car and I stumbled upon the 4-door Mazda3 car. The current value is $14,625. Is that overpriced for a car? If I were to purchase it early next year, would the price decrease? Also, if you own this car, know anybody who does, etc. I would appreciate the rate and review.
Thanks!

Car labor with parts?
Posted Sunday July 6 2008, 11:22 pm
I'm thinking about buying a 2000 Mazda 626. It seems like a pretty decent car for the price (compared to the other cars in that price range), but it's missing the drivers side cornering light.
I searched an auto parts website and the price of the cornering light itself was $31.50.
Is that really all I need to buy to fix it? Or are there other parts inside that I have to buy as well?
Also, if I had the light already, about how much would it cost to get a shop to repair it for me? I would only have to pay for labor, right?

Cars: Steel bolt vs. aluminum manifold...
Posted Monday June 30 2008, 4:26 pm
Hi there,
I have a problem wherein there is a steel bolt crewed into an aluminum manifold, and both items are oxidized, meaning that the steel has rusted and the aluminum has corroded.
I have tried force, tapping the bolt with a hammer, liquid wrench, various bolt loosening products, all with no success.
Does anyone have a super-secret method of getting things like unstuck?
Thank you for your help.

2002 dodge neon brakes...
Posted Thursday June 19 2008, 10:44 pm
i constantly (meaning every 6 months or less) have to replace the brake pads in my '02 dodge neon. i know this can't be right/good. my brakes squeal terribly at the slightest little stop. i'm not a bad driver either, i just go slightly over the speed limit... but even so, that shouldn't affect the brakes THAT much should it? if anyone has any tips on how to make my brakes better in general, please share! i've tried to google the best brake pads for my car impaticular, but all i get is pages to buy brake pads and no reviews i find helpful.

Air conditioning Problem 96 Cavalier
Posted Wednesday June 11 2008, 4:03 pm
I have a 96 Cavalier. The A/c will not work, but the heat and blower work just fine. My Father looked at it and thought the problem might be a low Freeon situation. But a bottle and a half of dyed freeon later (no leaks or anything came up) and it's still unbearable to drive anywhere because it is so hot out with out an A/C.
I have a baby due in July and I do not want to drive around in a hot car with a newborn. Any advice?

Learner's Permit
Posted Saturday June 7 2008, 3:51 pm
What age do you have to be in Massachusetts to get your permit? Then what age is it that you get your actual license?
I've heard that they're changing the driving age, and I'm just confused as to what it is now.
I've already tried Google by the way and I got a couple different ages so I was wondering if anybody knew for sure...
