  1. Need help finding something.

    If it HAS to be that specific kit, I'd call Edelbrock and ask them. Also, check craigslist. You never know who is cleaning out their garage/getting rid of projects they never finished lol. If you're just looking for a TPI to EFI kit, Edelbrock has new ones, Holley, Accel, and F.A.S.T. are a few good companies to look into.

    Edit-Sorry man, looks like they have been discontinued for a while. Still, call them and see what they have available.

    Honestly, I have no experience with that harness. I don't know if the colors match up correctly or whatever. A quick google of the gm2000 didn't help much, some people have this problem, and the only suggestion I saw was to get a new harness. Nobody ever said if it worked or not lol. Maybe somebody more familiar with the setup can help. But you said you've had other aftermarket decks in the car before, right? So it should still work...idk.

    maybe she needs some man-cat dangalang

    Wow. I read that COMPLETELY wrong lmao. I was gonna say that's probably illegal in most states :P

    That's awesome though. I wish I still had my last dog. She could be in the yard for 5 minutes and always bring something back in the house dead. Cats, birds, snakes, whatever she could get ahold of lol But I've never seen a cat actually catch anything.

  10. choosing a new car

    My acura was 11 im 19 no cosigner i pay 175 a month 5 yrs. No down payment either :peepwall:

    Umm...

    $175x60 months=$10,500.

    That can't be an $11,000 loan. Then add in interest...I don't see it. lol

    When I bought mine, car was 11k, about 2k for a 4 yr warranty Came to $13,1xx. I also had no down payment, no co-signer, and 7 or 7.5% interest (too lazy to look). So my $324/mo. x 48 mos. = over 15k

    Same goes for a 33k loan at $370/mo. Unless it's a VERY long loan (8-9 yrs?) I don't see it. Unless you guys are getting magical negative interest loans haha

    You might be able to find a Subaru sti wagon for around 10k. Turbo, fits 5 somewhat comfortably, room for a system, and lots of go fast parts lol. But I don't think 200 will cover a 10k loan. My stang was 13k and payments are $324/mo.

    Edit-I have a 4 year loan, you may be able to get a 5 year loan, but payments don't drop a whole lot. Maybe $40-50...

  19. Debadging help

    Goo gone will work. WD40 works too. At work I use an eraser wheel then buff the areas afterward. Also, I use a razorblade if I don't have anything else around, but I can't recommend it unless you are VERY comfortable with a blade. Basically, if this is most likely the only time you'll need to do this, just use goo gone, but be careful not to fade the paint. Two rags, one with GG/WD40 on it, one dry. Wipe with the wet one, wipe off with dry. Dont let the chemicals dry on the car or it will probably fade the paint a little.

    That is why insist on running OFC, and no cladded or tinned bullshit.

    I usually stick with tinned copper around here. It rains a lot and is humid most of the time. Had a few OFC runs oxidize and corroc a few years back, so I quit using it or my under car runs, and I'm an asshole that has to match everything lol so I don't run OFC inside either, unless its the same brand and color.

    edit-whatever wire you run, is ok to use for the big 3. just remember to fuse for the WIRE, not the alt. 250A fuse for CCA, not 140A for the alt. I suppose anything between 150-250 would work though. Same for the Run to your amp, I'd use the biggest fuse thats safe on the wire, in case you decide to add lights or anything that draws a little more current to the back. But again, as long as the fuse is larger than the amount of current you actually need, you'll be fine.

    Look at the fuses on the amp(s). If they add up to over 250A, go with OFC, less than 250A...I'd still go OFC, but CCA will be fine. If it's worth doing, it's worth overdoing. ;) as long as you can afford the extra. That way, if you decide to add a 4ch for your speakers, you'll still be covered without having to buy more wire and do another run. But if you never plan to add another amp, you really won't need to do OFC.
