Need a to find a trustworthy general car mechanic for a family member who just moved to the Orlando area ( between WDW and Kissimmee) Suggestions really appreciated.
As everyone can see most of us think oem parts have no economic value. However, mod parts do have value when they are off the car. Most buyers don't want to pay for the mods you made to your car. When I traded in my 03 I put the stock exhaust back on and sold the 5 year old Corsa track...
If your driving to the track, cups are your best choice. Be warned, cups are great dry tires but challenging in the wet. In a heavy rain, some of our club members will pull over and wait it out. The heavier the rain, the more challenging the drive.
My stock baseline on my ACR with 1500 miles on the car was 543 HP and 503 ft-lbs of torque . With Belanger headers & exhaust, 3000 miles on the car and 200 miles on the Mopar cpu , the best pull was 583 HP and 554 ft-lbs of torque. Weather conditions were similar and we used the same dyno.
Hey Fireball, you can disable the seat belt alert program. On page 39 of the owners manual, there are instructions on how to do it. It's pretty easy. My ACR is now light and chime free. Thanks to vipernut94 for the heads up on this fix. :2tu:
The boy can drive. He ran a 1:30.1 on sport cups at that event. We're even going to let him tag a long with us when we head back to the Joliet Autobahn next month.

Don't know if this is legal, but it sure looks good. A friend of mine went to a sign shop and had a sitcker made of his front plate. He made it a bit smaller than original so it would fit his front facia. From 20 feet away you'd never know it wasn't the real thing.
5.5MM, 10MM, 50MM OR 100MM is chump change in the big picture. Think about the billions that have been spent on GM & Chrysler so far. What ever they would get for the Viper brand won't mean a thing to the bottom line. So why sell it at all. If I were Fiat, I'd tuck Viper in my portfolio and...
As the other guys have said, for your first event stock pads will be fine. Make sure there is at least 60-70% of the pad left. Less than half and I would change them out. More importantly, make sure your brake fluid is fresh. If you're going to change the fluid and bleed the brakes, then use a...
