I especially like the Michelin device of having tunnels in the rubber that only turn into grooves as the tire wears down to that level. That's...
The industry-official term for that is "slingining."
You could have easily fit 305/315's on the rear wheels without any rubbbing or problems, and 30mm or so more traction width. You could have put...
Addendum: Holley has not ceased carburetor production, but Edelbrock's new 4150 is a gem in its tunability. I was wondering. To achieve maximum...
No, you have to look at his material. He isn't careless, and it obviously takes some time and effort, but 1000hp is more easily achieved with...
You COULD leave the two-nostril hood and disguise it as a V6.
I think it must have been the V6 That Could. 28 seems high for the V8's unless he threw truck cam in one and put a 1.82:1 rear end in it. The...
:D I've just seen so many over the years that were "one-post wonders." What are you doing with the car, or what do you hope to achieve?...
Do you all buck the flow and produce, for example, 18" wheel tires with more sidewall than the 20's that are suitable for high-performance?...
But, fearing theft is not really a way to live, yes?
If an inline six gets rid of the type of people who slither around and run Hellcat forums, it will be worth it.
Yes, I figured for someone who wants close to exactly that spec, it would be a good deal. I'm not sure how collectible it would be, but definitely...
Oh. What was the difference? Would anyone other than me buy a Challenger if it had high-spec suspension and stuff like the Hellcat but it had a...
But, they were so hot. Anyway, I found out on the 'net they were available in black, also Curious what their brakes were like. If anything needed...
I remembered it specifically in blue. I didn't even remember that it was available in black. [IMG] Also, I LIKED hot hatches. Not sure why they...
Another strike against the V6 for performance potential?
2011 Dodge Challenger R/T super trackpack From the Ebay ad: 426 cubic inch Hemi with a superior Magnuson TVS 2650 supercharger. 55,000 miles,...
That thing was so sexy. I still remember the big fat sidepipe someone had on one of those in some car magazine.
I don't. I think the valve train layout and engineering has better high-RPM performance and tuning POTENTIAL. The money they spent to fluff up...
Well, the Neon WAS that, until I started driving it. But it was a Neon ACR. DESIGNED for just such shenanigans, if one was so inclined.
Also, go for some long-tube headers, either Tri-Y or 4-into-1 that are about 1 7/8" in diameter to maximize scavenging in each cylinder and pave...
BTW the resonators are the things on the tips of the exhaust, not the mufflers, which are the ones underneath the middle of the car.
Depends on how you define an economy car. My Neon definitely found the ventilated and cross-drilled rotors to be VERY useful. Even the rear solid...
I will reiterate the reasons why this is wrong again. To re-reiterate: there are occasions available in everyday driving that warrant brakes...
Thank you for that display of lack of knowledge of how dynamic friction works. Dynamic friction is a product of pressure overall against a...
