I'm by no means a mechanic, but it might be a bad strut mount since it sounds similar to this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khZ16AOztT4&t=0s Hopefully this is useful, good luck!

I agree, the OEM blade inserts are the way to go, the salt up here doesn't seem to bother them either. I'm sure the rest of the S2000 is equally well built, best Honda by far imo.

The 2007 Civic I recently inherited had a problem with the passenger side wiper where it refused to make contact with the middle portion of the windshield. At first, it seemed as though the wiper arm would have to be bent in order to regain full contact, however, upon further investigation, the...

At 90000 kms, my Jeep Wrangler is about due for new fluid in the manual transmission, transfer case and both differentials. One option is to go all Mopar however, I think the following would be more cost effective: Transmission: Mopar Manual Transmission Fluid (Pennzoil Syncromesh is also...

Very nice, the chrome rings work well with the center caps/lug nuts.

Pedals with clips or at least quality cages do wonders for efficiency on hills, just remind yourself to "pull" with each pedal stroke and it'll become second nature soon enough. If there is gravel, try and transfer your weight to the back of the saddle to maintain traction, especially while...

The HIR bulbs you've mentioned have caught my attention!

Thanks for your suggestions, I guess i'll just keep the Hellas with 55w bulbs until they burn out and upgrade to proper LED driving lights, upgrading the entire wiring harness seems like a bit of a hassle for a pair of lights that cost ~$100

Hello there! I recently installed a pair of Hella 700 FFs on my Wrangler for night rural driving as the stock headlights are horrible. While i'm quite pleased with the light output/beam for the price, I wish they would be a bit brighter. Would the stock wiring harness be able to handle the added...

Judging by the handle, it's a Jamie Oliver Professional Series Wok by TeFal. I have Stainless Pots/Pans from the same series (5 years old) and they are great.

If you enjoy biographies about musicians, I would recommend Shakey: Neil Young's Biography by Jimmy McDonough.

I have had a set of GY Adventure ATs on my Wrangler for about a year (20k kms). They have seen everything from blizzards, downpours and highway to rock/mud covered trails as well as mild towing (Yamaha Rhino/ firewood) and so far have treated me well. Haven't had any issues with vibration and...

*Update* --> Pictures at the bottom Sorry for the delay with this update but I just got the Jeep back today. It turns out the previously installed heater core was leaking, more specifically, the connecting hoses. The workmanship completed by the dealer who initially serviced the heater core...
