Great to hear!... Maybe I'll be upping my boost and pushing past the 280ft.lbs mark then (eventually)!

Have you considered sanding the paint and laying carbon fiber cloth (I saw it a while back...it's thin sheets of carbon fiber that are flexible enough to lay over car panels.) over the top/hatch/hood with the rest being pearl white...it would look awesome imo. Jimmy Kinda thought about it but rathe...

Spoke to NASSEN at the races today - he is the guy from SA with that funny orange coloured Opel that is the first FWD in SA to run an 8 second 400m. Him and another 2 x racers running 9 second 400M putting down round 600KW ON THE WHEELS are running F28 6 speed boxes - AS IS!!! Yes Existence the sam...

Thanks for the input. The wheels came today and I have to paint the car white....the wheels are just too perfect for a white car. I'll be happy without a lip of any kind, I already have blue lugs, valve stems, and valve caps so it looks good but isn't very flashy.

Awesome...didn't think of that.

The spoiler bolts into the hatch but the bolts go through holes in the hatches glass.

I'm trying to decide what I want to do with my lanos. It's black, my favorite but I'm starting to consider white (prob a pearl white). The bumpers and some bits already need to be painted so I'm considering just going with white. I just bought all "spoon" black wheels, they're like a charcoal black....

Only three things could cause that fault. Battery, Starter, or Alternator. I'm not sure, I've only had the later two tested once recently. lol. I did plan on having it done again today providing I make it over there in time. The serpentine belt dose really need to be replaced. I have a parts engine...

Added some good grounds and am still getting the lights dimming at idle. I haven't driven enough alone (well, paying attention) to tell if it's as bad. Can't say if the battery is still dying since I disconnect it everytime I leave the car (cuz the lights). The starting issue is still there though a...

It's not the battery. The optima still has 12.33 after a couple hours and the car's acting the same way with my other battery...actually worst. It died a couple times. Might be grounds as the shop removed several of mine and I only have one left that looks like it's really cheap wire and connectors....

it could be a bad ground or loose wire. might be a dieing battery. what kind of grounding system do you have on the car? if your grounds are bad that could account fo the batterys dieing like you have had in the past It's the battery. The alternator is okay-good, starter is good, so it must be the ...

I only lost a polish TB through him but I'll be contacting him soon. If he ignores me or anything I'll just take a few mins to fill out that internet police thing someone recommended to me on the forums awhile back. I did it with my 2.0 engine that the seller was refusing to ship, within a few days ...

I'll play around with it some more and maybe just do the switch thing... :? I'm starting to have problems starting the car. I'm guess it's the starter but really don't know anything about maintenance type things until I come across them myself. I'll turn the key and it'll just click but won't crank ...

Stock?

Do you have a part number for the boss stuff?
