  2. whats a louver?? ... and what are the other dead giveaways that a car is a cop car??
  3. i wash my car all the time .. just use some kmart stuff i think ... i've never used a wax ... how often do u guys wax ur cars?? what does the wax do?? i heard its bad for the paint job if u do it too often .. is that correct??
  4. when u got pulled over?? was it in an official cop car?? or just a normal looking commi???
  5. i heard that it has no potential ... ie you can't do much more to it to get more power ... its just what i heard ... can someone verify this??
  6. hmmm thats tonite .. sounds interesting .. where u going?? any other clubs going?? .. pretty late notice

  8. what greasy film?? i've never noticed any greasy film on my windows??? what causes it?? i also notice that when i wash the car and then dry it ... if i put the windows down and then up its all wet again ... like water seeps under the seals ... is that normal??

  11. well me and my friends are definitely doing the tinting .. its just a matter of where and when ... our cars are a little mazda 323 , a real EVO 4 and my line ... anyone know anywhere else that does quality tinting with lifetime guarantee??
  12. well i did go to a reputable repairer which they said they give me a lifetime guarantee on the repair cause they are one of the biggest in the state .. i will speak with them tomorrow to see what they say ... thanks for all ur help
  13. anyone here wanna get some window tinting, i've got a total of 3 cars that want tinting, its from tint a car so u know its top quality stuff ... original price is 340 for their best stuff, formula 1 or whatever its called, now its down to 290 a car!! .. i can get more discounts i think if i get more people in, anyone??
  14. so how do i go about fixing it?? who can i get to do it for me and what does this kind of work involve?? cause i 've had an accident with the car already ... so that could of made it worse ...
  15. ok i got yokohamas put on the car ... standard size ... 16"s the guy said to put it on 40 psi !! .. so thats what i'm leaving it on .. what do u guys think?
  16. ok now i do this sorta stuff in my job. you can't really just download the eprom program and just open it to edit some numbers and bobs your uncle. well u can't do it unless u know what each of the numbers mean, for that u have to be an expert in assembly programming etc. i'm not sure how the tuners reprogram their ecus for the right air fuel mixtures, but the method for programming micro controllers is the same for just about all applications. the program gets written in some programming language eg c/c++ , assembly etc, then gets "burnt" into chip by different methods, for this u will need special hardware anyways like a chip programmer which usually doesn't cost all that much. and thats it!! just pop the chip onto your circuit board and fire it up. oh yeah i forgot to mention how hard it can be to test these bastards if u have bad programming skills such as myself.
  17. boosted?? so i think i might have that problem ... what can i do to rectify it?? that is the problem with the shitty handling and steering problem as well as the car pulling to one side when braking.
  18. so there aren't many good places around?? looks like i will try pvp ... alan i will give u a call soon mate
