    Please help. I want to mod but I know nothing.

    I bought a HP p6310y a few weeks ago. It's great for what I use it for most which is this site. Unfortunately, my addiction to modding things does not end with cars and bikes. So the reason why is honestly I can't help myself. I know that sounds pretty ignorant but I want to learn more about...

    Finally graduated to a FS. Suggestions?

    So I've finally gotten my skill level to a point that I don't think a FS would be a total waste of money and I really enjoy DH. I've literally upgraded EVERYTHING on my Hardrock.....really. I'm not sure if I would put it back to stock and transfer all of the good stuff over to a new FS frame or...

    EA013 discontinued due to plugging. Repost?

    Sorry, I couldn't fit the entire title I wanted due to the size limitations so it's a little misleading. This may be a repost so mods, please delete if it is but I searched and didn't see anything about it. One member of Acurazine inquired as to why the TL's stock sized EA013 filter was...

    Very good results using Type-F fluid in DBW Hondas

    This is sure to scare some of you but lets keep the insults to a minimum. We've been trying to come up with a solution to the turbo TL's appetite for the 5at transmission. Line pressure rise will be on the way but for now, myself and a few others have been experimenting with Redline and...

    Opinions, Mavic Cross Ride rims...

    I bought them already without looking at reviews first. I hurt my stock front rim and the seam started coming apart. It was weird in that it seemed ok and the next morning I came out and the tire was flat. I looked for punctures and couldn't find any. Then I tried to inflate it and there was a...

    Just switched to Redline 5w-30. The sky is falling

    This car has seen only Amsoil ACD SAE 30 for 75,000 miles and Redline 10w-30 for the past 5,100 miles. I was going to wait until it got colder outside to put the Redline 5w-30 in but I got bored this afternoon. So for the first time since I bought the car brand new I've used a thinner oil. With...

    Battery desulfators and computers. Please educate.

    I have a 1.5yr old Optima Redtop that the bodyshop let go completely dead to where it wouldn't power the dome light. Ever since, it won't hold a full charge. Radio listening time with the engine off has been drastically shortened. I've trickle charged it overnight a few times and taken 2 hour...

    Advice on setting up a dual air Revelation fork?

    I purchased this fork a while back but still haven't got the setup right. I'm 220lbs, about 240 with gear and the bike is a fairly heavy one. It's a Revelation dual air fork. I've experimented with the extremes of positive and negative chamber pressure but can't get it where I want it. Right...

    New mountain bike pedals, which type?

    I broke a stock pedal today powering up a hill. Stock pedals are cheap plastic, I'm surprised they have lasted this long. My big debate is do I go with the clip type that require a special shoe or a regular platform pedal? If it were just on-road I would go with the clip style but I'm nervous...

    MiNewt x2 too bright for city streets....

    I tried my new Nite Rider NiNewtX2, the 400 lumen version out for the first time the other night. On the local bike trail I got comments everytime I passed someone. I almost felt bad and tried to keep the lights aimed down more than normal. On the city streets even on the dim setting and aimed...

    Installed new Honda OEM filter. Very nice.

    I checked my filter a week ago and it wasn't dirty but I noticed the seals were rotting and missing in places. I'm not sure of the brand but it says "Made in Israel" and seems like some sort of a fiber type filter. This was installed by the bodyshop about 15K miles ago. For the first time I...

    Age 32, got my first ticket.

    I'm [censored] though I deserved it. 4 of us were coming back from dinner and going to the gas station. I don't drink so I was the driver as usual. I took a back road to avoid traffic. There were no street lights and only one car on the road, a white Explorer pulled over on the side. We were...

    Another "great" dealer experience...Nissan

    Took the girlfriend's '07 Murano in today because it's turning over slowly and getting worse by the day. I also mentioned the pinging and coolant leak, same as I did last time and I expected the same results but I figured I would waste my breath anyway. They also said they would do a recall on...

    Thinking of doing a valve adjustment at 79K

    I know it's early, recommended is 105K but here's the story. Around 40K, the car developed a weird noise from the exhaust from time to time. Anyone remember what it sounds like when you have a bad exhaust valve? It sounds like a random pop or suck through the exhaust? The TL started doing this...

    Lazy people and lipo

    I just have to vent. I had another one of my friends who is female go in for lipo for her stomach and most of the lower body. She was only 20lbs overweight. I didn't even know they would do lipo for people that look normal. Now she's addicted to the pain pills and can't work for 2 weeks. It just...

    Sources for higher quality audio (CD or DVD) disks

    I'm having an issue with some of the current store bought CD offerings. I have a very SQ (sound quality) oriented system in my TL. When I had the stock system I couldn't tell much of a difference between FM radio, CDs, or MP3s. With the higher quality components, there's a world of difference to...

    PPV boxing tonight!

    Just wondering if anyone is watching the Hector Camacho fight tonight? One of my best friends of 15 years, Billy Baily, is fighting on this card for his first PPV event. I don't think I've ever been this nervous for a fight. This will be the first time I choose boxing over UFC in the same night.

    Redline Nissan CVT fluid?

    Anyone try this yet? I'm about to place an order for my car and the girlfriend's Murano is due for a transmission fluid change. Since Redline is slightly cheaper than the Nissan fluid from the dealer, it's a no-brainer which one to get. I just don't want to be the first one to try it, especially...

    Advice on a new desktop??

    I'm fairly clueless when it comes to these things but I want something that I won't have to upgrade for a long long time. I believe in overkill of course. One I've had my eye on is this one, the one on the right side of the page: http://www.dell.com/us/en/home/desktops/...19&ref=dthp Anything...
