Well, life strikes again, i am temporarily financially wiped out as i had to repair extensive storm damage done to my house by flying debris from a construction site- home-owner insurance is pushing the whole thing towards a...

    EPS disable

    hi guys, i need to bounce it off some knowledge here as i'm confused. car is na2, 2000. i am due for a clutch so i am debating installing the 4.23 final drive which i have (converting to na1 dual clutch of course). according to sos, most of the time 4.23 conversion on na2 results in loss of...

    Factory 2013 NSX info sent to dealers

    is it safe to assume that semi-auto tranny is the only offering? maybe i missed that info but without a real manual transmission i will never own one, sadly.

    USA Downgraded.

    it is obvious that social security is going bankrupt but it is not happening because of its design but by tampering, so you cannot fault the system but the hand in the cookie jar. if the ss contributions deposited by the babyboomers over generations were left untouched, like they were supposed...

    USA Downgraded.

    the 'disparity' mentioned does not take into an account the fact that the money an individual is paying over the years was supposed to be accruing interest on investment- in reality generating a great profit for the government- take the 300k investment over even 10 years in stable environment...

    GM CEO calls for $1 gas tax hike

    well, i'll take the 'credit' for that one as i did not want to start yet another tread- we should just rename this one "everything controversial rant" and be done.

    Refurbish my center console?

    yes, you definitely have to pull the old foil off before refinishing. going back to oem look can be done with the right paint match (the original is a vapor deposition process which is not cost effective for you to reproduce). another option is patterns done through water-transfer process (ie...

    Lambo says arriverderci to manual transmissions...

    opinions are opinions, we all have one. people seem to buy sport cars for enjoyment regardless of price, this is not racing so such classifications are purely a matter of opinion just as you are free to say that an exotic should go fastest regardless of how enjoyable it is to a purist (which i...

    Lambo says arriverderci to manual transmissions...

    this is not a response to 'timpo', i am just using the quote. although i do not dispute the benefits of semi-auto tranny, to me driving a performance vehicle is about involvement and skill, not about leveling the playing field so a fat banker can be as fast as an another one. unfortunate, really.

    Lambo says arriverderci to manual transmissions...

    i think the point is that the car makers that were long considered the last bastion of 'sport' driving (ferrari, lambo etc) are now NOT offering a manual tranny so if you are looking for a real sport car you no longer can buy one period.

    MP4-12C again

    i agree with all the comments except for the 'tuned for the track' one. top gear's "track" is an under-used airport, hardly a race track. if anything, it would be a better indication of street performance than a 'real' race track.

    EPS Failure

    while i am no expert in EPS issues it seems you are having a 'controls feedback' issues meaning a sensor is malfunctioning somewhere 'feeding-in' to make your wheel 'dance'.

    GM CEO calls for $1 gas tax hike

    once again, the claimant DID NOT ASK FOR ANY PUNITIVE DAMAGES. anything that was awarded was done so by the jury to cover medical expenses not honored by medicare. the point of the lawsuit was to force mcdonalds to change the design of the lid (which was the same as for cold drinks back then, if...

    GM CEO calls for $1 gas tax hike

    i did not want to start another tread so i am using this old one as the issue of 'frivolous lawsuits" was brought up here so recently. i hope you all had a chance to catch the HBO documentary this weekend about business-related lawsuits titled "Hot Coffee". It just shows how much misinformation...
