I found the bag kit i will be purchasing for my 1985 S10 Blazer for when i bag and body drop it. Im just waiting for the invoice from the company which will be getting it $50 cheaper directly through them than through ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Air-Ride-Co...80570QQtcZphoto figured i couldnt pass up that kit for $2000 Shipped because it comes with everything but my upper and lower control arms which are going to cost me around another $730 by themselves. i cant wait to start this project. plan on bag and bodydropping it on either 20s or 22's if its possible. also plan on swapping the little 2.8L v6 with a 350 edelbrock crate engine when the time comes…

The Volvo crapped out this weekend, coming back home. Drivetrain troubles which we probably can't fix because of the age and scarseness (sp?) of parts for the car Turning it into a trailer queen would kill all the fun but in case we won't find anything, that's what we will have to do. Right now I'm looking for suggestions on a euro-car that can do well in spl. Also, I'm not thinking about a burp-only car. We could play "music" in the Volvo and quickly tune it for burps. Not going to wall anything untill we break into the 150's. We want to stick to one 18 (my friends all compete in smaller classes so I don't want to run against them) so we need a bit of space. Fiat Pan…

i think mine is taking a dump, my system has been weak as i made a topic about the problem 2 weeks ago, now its whining, i bought my current HOA from ebay... just a no name... it worked fine.. but now is not. i emailed OHIO and thay never respond to my emails. i emailed them before and thay never responded thats why i dont have an ohio currently i know iraggi has had problems latly... so who else do we use? i want atleast a 200 amp. no less. and if i can find a daily 300amp t hat would be sweet

thinkin about getting a 2001-2003 chevy tahoe 2wd. this will just be a weekend driver so gas is really not an issue. are there any websites that sale a complete kit that won't break the bank. i jus need sumthin real basic all 4 corners raised and all 4 corners slammed..no fbss or 3-wheel motion is needed. also if is anyone running bags on their whips about how much was it installed. and also if anyone knows a shop in their town that can ship out a kit for the low let me know.

www.craigslist.com every single car ive owned ive gotten off here...they are all respectable cheap cars....just got a 1996 talon tsi 5 speed for $2000....nothing is wrong with it...got my 91 safari panel van off there too...

After I get my system Im gonna need a BAD A$$ alarm cause GOD knows I dont have enough cash saved up to buy my system all over again. I would also like it if had auto-start. Any suggestion?

Today a dude pulled up next to me at a stoplight and said my brake lights don't work. So I come home and mess around and find out that the sensor that's attached to the brake pedal isn't doing it's job correctly. It seems like when I push the brake pedal it doesn't trip the sensor. I can push up the sensor and it turns my brake lights on. So do I need a new one or can this one just be adjusted somehow? and what's it exactly called anyways, since I've been trying to look it up online and can't find the part?

i am wondering about want kind of modifacations i can make to a new car that will not interfer with any sort of warrenty. i havent bought a car yet. im mainly worriered about the h/u etc.

I have a problem, about a year ago I was going to a party in Austin. My friend decided it would be funny to open the door on the freeway. Anyways, the force of the winds pushed my window out of the sleeve on the door. We managed to get it to go back, but ever since. It will go on the sleeve of the door up to almost the top then it pops out again. I checked to see if it was coming off the track, and it's not it just moves a small bit and then that misaligns it. I was just wondering if any of yall, have had this problem and what yall did to fix it.

Well, I think it's time the Cobra went bye bye. I need some suggestions on what to get. I have to be able to fit my work tools and a stroller in there, and have plenty of room in a back seat for the baby seat without cramping frontseat passengers. I'm thinking along the lines of an extended cab or crew cab pickup, or a large car with a huge trunk. Budget is $10-12K, and no GM or Chrysler junk please. What's everyone else with the kiddies rollin?

Hey guys, I don't really get into car forums much, so I figured i'd post in here and see if you could figure something out or gimme a starting point! I'm having some "road noise" issues if you'd call them that. I'll give you the breakdown: CAR: 1995 Honda Accord EX Sedan PROBLEM: Around 2500 RPM's, I can "feel" the engine beneath my seat(the drivers) and its sort of like a buzzing/vibrating noise or feeling. Its like the engine accelerates smooth, but then as as soon as it hits that spot(2500 RPM), it feels really rough, then gets back to smooth at like 2800 RPM maybe, around there. I…

I have searched around a little, but I wanted to ask here in case anyone knows (Sean )of a better location other then a local junker. Someone pushed in the nose on the drivers side of Amanda's car, and it cracked the lower portion and drivers side fog lens, along with snapping the connectors into the fender well. Now the rubber scuff piece on the passenger side is scrapping the road from time to time. Since she drives this car everyday, I would rather fix this before I do brakes on the sled.

Hey guys... i can neva get my car to be running smooth! if its not one things its another. Well now when i start up my car i get this kinda wierd sounds when i start reving up my enigine... it will be like that for a while and then all of a sudden disapear.

Guys im stupid i backed into the church van (2000 Dodge Full size van ) the other day (so no MJ 18s right now) so where can i find a good deal on a bumper (i know J yard but no one has one in my area) so i got on the net a company called advantage auto parts in TX said they could get me one for 290 shipped another company called Parts train ( i think ) told me 275 shipped the reason why im weary is becauase they seem to good to be true so anyone heard of them i was told locally they can get me one for 450 new Help me please im in a big bind

What type of security system should I get. I have an 04 escalade. I was thinking about a viper system what do you guys think?

I'm not a motorcycle aficionado by any stretch of the imagination, but I saw this parked the other day and it blew me away. Sorry for the crappy image, but I snapped it with my phone while I was driving by. I've asked some of my friends, one suggested it might be a Hayabusa, but I can't find any that resemble this. Anyone know what bike this is?

Due to the bad fate of a corrupted server, CYVforums.com is no more. But, Patrick, the owner of CYV and I talked, and we decided to team up and join the members of CYV and CA-F. So if you are a CYV'er and looking for other CYV peoples, it is now at CarAudio-Forum.com. This way CYV is not gone, just in a different place.

i talk to a guy that has a lincoln towncar, a 95 i think.. any how hes a impulse buyer.... he states that the tornado works, add 4 miles to the gal the cold air intake while gives more power makes the fuel milage very bad and i want to know what K&N filter stands in all this

seeing has we spend thousands of dollars on these cars and trucks..what kind of car alarms do you guys have?

I was thinking about this recently with all the increasing pressure on raising MPG and emission requirements. Personally, my vote for me in my life time, would be turbo diesel. It seems to be the most natural way for now, no BS complaints about the infrastructure, similar performance to gas motors, and proven durability. Was just curious as to what our other car nuts on here are thinking. Hydrogen has serious potential, and no waste product. BMW is proving some stellar performance with their's. Toyota has done very good work with Hybrids, but the system is still $$$. GM is getting credit for making their Tahoe get 20mpg with their hybrid system, all the while a stan…
