Insurance came back adjusted their offer. Not sure which way to lean. They are offering me 17.5k for the car or 8k if I keep it. So I would basically be buying it back at 9.5k.

My car has 95k miles and interior is in pretty good condition, however exterior would be decent. Its for the most part stock except for pulley, long-tube headers, exhaust, intake, mgw shifter. So I went down to the Department of Motor Vehicles and pulled a inquiry on the title and it said no...

Hi all, My car sat for about 1 - 2 years, and I have recently started driving it again but have a new issue. When I am driving on the highway going 60-70mph and I "punch the gas" slightly to pass a car in 5th or 6th gear the traction control kicks on. Any ideas where to start looking? How...

I installed a Maximum Motorsports Quadrant, Firewall Adjuster and Cable. After the install, I am unable to shift into any gears. If I try and start the car in First gear, it moves forward as if the clutch was engaged. I have the firewall adjuster pretty fairly backed out. Should I continue to...

I looked up the clock springs and they run $135 at American muscle. Hell I think I am just going to run an after market steering wheel then. The clock spring is only for the air bag right? So if I were to put on an aftermarket steering wheel then I wouldnt need the clock spring?

Is it possible to remove the ignition rod actuator without removing steering wheel?

I think I broke the ignition switch rod actuator in my 2003 Cobra. When I turn the switch off, everything stays on as if the key was still in the car. So I am trying to take off the steering wheel to check, however I am running into issues. Part of the hole where to thread the steering wheel...

So I was selling my SUV on craigslist and got a few of the typical scammers targeting me with the same old scheme. They want to send me a check I deposit and send them the money. The check will bounce and I will eat the cost. Anyways if I am in the mood and have time I usually play around and...

So I recently replaced my rear brake caliper due to damaging the old one when a bolt backed out. (Learned my lesson and used loctite.) I couldn't find a OEM replacement caliper so i purchased one from O'Reilly's. Since then there has been a noise coming from the caliper while driving the car...

My car was wrecked and repaired by a previous owner. I noticed that my passenger tire sits further back in the wheel well than the drivers side. So I am trying to align the k-member using the method outlined on maximum motorsports k-memmber install instructions, however I am having issues...

I shaved the IRS bolt however the tire still barely rubs the IRS bolt when the suspension is fully unloaded. The tires will only be used for autocross and road race. Should I buy a spacer or do you think I will be ok? I cant shave the bolt any more or else I will end up not being able to...

I was installing lowering springs and decided to replace the stock subframe bolts with the 9/16 bolts, however I am having problems with the nuts. Am I supposed to cut out the stock nuts and either way the 9/16 lock nuts dont seem to fit in the subframe bracket. Any help will be appreciated.

Noob questions, I tried the search button but Cog is to short so it omits it in the search... I found a local guy selling a Cog pulley and puller and I was thinking about picking it up, however it is only the one pulley not the entire cog system. Can I run the pulley by itself or do I need the...
