    Just Installed a WOT BOX, getting dashes on odometer

    Hey guys, I just got my WOTbox installed and took it for a test run. The WOT shifting is working, but the 2-step is not. I'm guessing I didn't do a good job on the yellow WOTbox wire connection. However, what I'm more concerned about is that after making a couple WOT shifts I noticed that my...

    Another coolant question... How much variance is normal in expansion tank.

    Hey guys, A few weeks ago when getting my car out from winter storage I noticed that the coolant level in my expansion tank was lower than it had been previously. I did a block test and it came up negative. I added some coolant, re-burped, and have driven the car a few hundred miles since with...

    Looking for a new shift knob

    Hey guys, My stock shift knob has quite a bit of wear on it and I'm looking to replace it. I like the way the stock knob looks, so I'd like something similar in style. In addition, I'd prefer something leather/fake leather/whatever that gives a little better grip, as I tend to get sweaty...

    Gunk/crap all over my coil covers/plugs

    Hey guys, I bought this car about 4 years ago. I had some issues with overheating early on and feared it was a head gasket. I eventually found a small leak in the radiator and replaced it and things have seemed fine since then. However, I've only put maybe 2-3k miles on the car in that time...

    Driving to the track on Bogarts?

    Hey guys, I'm hoping to go the the track here soon and picked up a set of Bogarts and slicks to get down the track. I didn't realize when I bought them that they bend so easily and now I'm not sure what to do. I like about 30 miles (50 minutes) from the nearest track, and I'm guessing that's...

    Belt replacement question. Continental elite the new gatorback?

    Hey guys, I started to get a terrible squeaking recently coming from the belt/pulley area. I put some water on the belt and the squeaking goes away for a bit before coming back, so I figured I should replace the belt. After doing some research it seems the Goodyear gatorback is the belt of...

    Just Installed Extended Wheel Studs... Should I Remove Anti Seize?

    Hey guys, So tonight I installed some Moroso extended wheel studs on all 4 corners. They pulled in great and the install was very easy. After doing some research on this site and some others, I decided to use some anti seize while pulling them on. Not only did I hear that it would help with...

    Safety/Legality of Extended Reach Lugs

    Hey guys, So I recently bought some Bogarts for my cobra to try out the track. The fronts are 15x3.5 and have a spacer welded on the back to clear the front breaks. The previous owner sent me some extended reach lug nuts to allow them to work with stock length studs. My question is how...

    M&H 26x11.5-16 vs ET Streets 26x10.5-16 on a 9 inch wheel?

    Hey guys, I just bought a set of 16x9 Bogarts with a 28 inch rear tire on them. I'm expecting that to be too tall since my car sits pretty darn low. Therefore I'm looking into some 26 inch bias ply tires in a 16, and unfortunately there aren't too many options. Here is what I've found...

    Question about my makeshift/budget drag setup in the works

    I've been trying to piece together a bit of a budget drag setup so that I can try out the track without breaking the bank before I decide whether it's something I see myself doing regularly. If I really like it I'll pick up some welds or bogarts. For rears I picked up some 16" pony wheels...

    Dog pissed on chrome rims

    Hey guys, Unfortunately at some point our male dog decided that it was a good idea to mark on my rear passenger side chrome saleens when I didn't have the cover on the car. It has left some small whitish marks on the rim that I can't seem to get off. I have tried using soap and water, some...
