I had debated for a long time to buy a BMW due to my friend having one. He owns a 2018 M3 with FBO and it rips. Most of the M models were outside my price range specifically M4s and M5s. But not the M6. I owned a GT500 and my brother wanted to buy it so I sold it to him then bought the M6 with...
Since there's literally no posts in this section then I'll be the first to say I like Dorito engines. A weird combination of two stroke, 4 cycle, and airplane technology. Maybe I'll find an RX8 or a Mazda B series truck to start a rotary build on.
Here is a link for a good calculator to use. This will show the difference between whichever wheel/tire setup you are running now to what you are considering using. It breaks down the changes in space, speedometer change etc. Mods please sticky this post in the other wheel/tire size sections...
This is going to be the start of my build thread for the new (to me) 2011 Chevrolet Silverado Z71 I just purchased. This vehicle was owned by my mother for a few years after her last Silverado got rear ended and totaled. Here's some more information about how it currently sits.
175,000 miles...
Since Adapted Performance was having a discount/sale for the new site I purchased their firewall heat shield. I wasn't sure if it was going to fit my XSPower Turbo manifold with EWG. Turns out it wouldn't. The dump tube (facing downwards) and the extension from the manifold were going to hit the...

I'm seriously beginning to consider going to Megasquirt for my Speed 3. There is a DBW CANBus kit that will allow me to retain the stock throttle body without having to fab up a throttle cable system. This would also require me to go full PI as MS can't handle direct injection. MS would give me...
Here is my write up for how to reseal the oil pan. Removing the transmission is not required. Neither is removing the timing cover. I checked the time in ProDemand and it states flat rate time is 5.6 hours. Realistically it should take about 1-2.

1/4" Drive Ratchet

The first subject will be on...
What's going on everyone. I'm starting this post so we can start a collection of all connectors and related information such as where to purchase, pin style, layout, and wiring diagrams.
I will start a public Google document for all this information to be linked back here. If you have...
I'm looking to get a new key and hopefully a remote or two. I have a 2007 Speed 3 but dont know if those came with key fobs or not. I would assume they did when the car was purchased.
I figured I have to go to the dealer for the key and fob but was wondering if I can program them myself instead...
Hey hows it going? I purchased my Speed 3 about a year ago. I work for GM at a Buick/GMC dealer as a technician. Customer blew up their motor and sent #4 rod out of the block. My dealer decided not to throw a motor in it and resell it. I picked the car up for 800 dollars. Not too bad if you ask...
