Saturday, I drove my wife to a nearby city to shop. While she was in a mall, I stayed in my Vette and got the first parking place by the door.
Everybody checks out the Corvette except very elderly old ladies. Kids 5-10 are unrestrained in their admiration. At the ages of about 11-18 all...
Rain leaks in all around my windows and Targa top on my 2004 and once the carpet gets soaked a drop in temp will cause condensation on the inside of the windows and the metal parts of the Targa roof. It has spent weeks at the dealer trying to find and stop the leaks. However, from 40 years...
My AH on my '04 A4 coupe never kicked in until I started making performance mods, now if the car isn't arrow straight when I floor it to pass, the rear end will start to spin out and the AH will kick in. This is usually when I'm doing about 50-55 and its on clean dry asphault and concrete...
Don't waste your money on a NOAH cover - its soft, but thats about all, mine works about as well as a thin cotton bedsheet - water and dirt both get through easily. In fact, I have a $19.97 Wal-Mart BUDGE cover over the NOAH cover to keep out water and dirt.
I have heard good things abouth the...
My stock exhaust is in the back of my pickup (thats because its going to be installed soon on my pickup) and easy to see so I'll take a closer look, but I remain reasonably certain they are spot welded on.
You have to watch the Craftsman guarantee. Its lifetime still on hand tools like wrenches, but on virtually everything else the guarantee periods are often shorter than most competing brands.
I will say I have only had one Craftsman tool fail - a 1/4" socket extension where the little ball...
My Triumph Bonneville T100 is a 2003 and its loaded out, heavily modified and puts out about 50% more rwhp than stock. About the only thing else I could change on it is add a big bore kit, but its got plenty of power for me and my Corvette is my main toy at present.
The most common piece of...
I'm so old and feeble, I'm waiting for something like Cialis for arms and legs. I have had to take vehicles to the dealer three times since new years to do something I no longer had the flexibility or strength to handle. Wait a minute, didn't I just roll my SUV 7 times with no seat belts and...
Any drawbacks to also installing 3 phase wiring? I just realized I needed it when a potential buyer for some industrial equipment couldn't use a heavy duty floor mounted sander because it was 3 phase.
I know where I can get a killer, german Kaeser screw air compressor in 3 phase for a song...
I have 6+ acres and will build a new garage this year. I have an oversized two car garage on the lower level of the house and a 20' x 30' tractor shed, which I want to use for tractor implements only as field mice get into equipment stored in the shed during winter. I believe I am going with a...
Here's what's in my stable - 2004 Torch Red Corvette, 2005 Black on Black Tahoe Z-71, 2004 Crimson Pearl Cadillac SLS, 1998 Artic White CK2500 4x4, 2003 Blue & White Triumph Bonneville T100 motorcycle, 2003 Silver & Gray Polaris 700 Twin ATV, and 2002 Silver & Black G3 HP190 BassBoat. Had a...
Just autocross, better safe than sorry. Someone suggested I set the harnesses up so that the camlock was on top of my legs; anyone else have any advice on 5 point harness set up?
Had my new GHL Bullets with 3.5" bullseye tips installed last Thursday and they look and sound great. Much better than the other brands I have heard. Very mean at idle and at low acceleration, very quiet at 75 mph crusiing (like stock); not as loud as I expected at wide open throttle.
Since...
One of the Corvette magazines in 2004 had an article that listed all of the changes in the C5 on a year by year basis; sorry I can't remember which one it was. However, there were approximately 25 changes (mostly minor fine tuning stuff) made (20-30 was the range of numbers of changes) made in...
