  1. That must be why netflix was down, they said it was something having to do with electrical storms.
  2. Good thing about sears is they wont question it if you somehow kill your battery when its under warranty. Just bring it back back throw it on the table and walk out with a new one.
  3. They would have to prove mine came with a void warranty sticker on it. I say fuck em.
  4. If you like it man, do it. Not my style, but im sure its someone else's style.
  5. I think 4 gauge is only good up to 1000 watts rms. I would run 1/0 to back, both positive 1/0 and ground 1/0 from front to rear.
  6. So you want to run 2 1/0 gauge wires off your power post on your alternator? 1 to the front battery and 1 to the rear?. If so that may end up being alot of stress on the alternator positive post. I would just do it like most everyone else with 1 alt and do the big 3 then do the runs of 1/0 from front battery to rear battery.
  7. If its got white smoke from exhaust it could also be the piston rings, maybe when you blew the head gasket the rings also got fucked up.Edit just read the part of losing coolant. I almost wonder if you may have a cracked block at the water jacket, because a mechanic should be able to install an intake manifold with gasket pretty easily.
  8. Oem parts are made to be lightweight and cost effective, thats why they spend so much money on them to figure out how to make them cheap and light. They usually make sure the performance of the vehicle matches the parts. They dont put corvette disk brakes on a cavalier.
  9. Thats why i only buy automatic transmissions, fuck changing a clutch every 40k miles.
  10. haha it always baffles me how OEM parts tend to be way fucking better than expensive aftermarket parts I have a friend who is the former head mechanic and now general manager at Arrigo Dodge here in FL (MASSIVE dealership), he says he prefers to use OEM parts for everything less suspension. He tells me that since they are engineered for maximum service life, not performance, in their respective applications they function best. Most parts are engineered and perfected for years to be paired precisely with the other parts they interact with, the vehicle model, and engine. That is why most OEM parts only receive revisions to their designs to improve them or lower production cost with a tight tolerance for performance loss and even more strict a tolerance for useful service life loss. Labor is big money, not parts, so parts are made to outlive the duration and mileage the most ridiculous warranty packages include at least. Your friend is full of shit, he likes oem parts because they make the most profit on them by eliminating the 3rd party vendor. Even buying a oem hubcap from a dealership will cost over 100 dollars for just 1 hubcap.
  11. Yeah alot of people x regular tweeters between 3 and 4k, now ive heard of some people x super tweeters at about 8k or so because they arent a regular tweeter.
  12. You guys dont have smog test in minn? In california we have to have cats equipped if the vehicle came with it or we wont pass smog and cant get registration.
  13. I would agree if you cant sell the amp then trade for the rifle, a rifle can always come in handy and they last forever.
  14. So when you say 2 places in your headliner that are messed up, does that mean hes just going to lay this over the top of the existing headliner?
  15. Drag those kids grandparents out of their homes and force them to be bus monitors.
  16. Hey Joe, i know it's bad but i have never put 45's in a box before. How wide or what is a good size for a 45? Will 2-3" be good? I think 45 degrees is a good angle for 45 degree angles.
  17. I would say teach the parents a lesson and make the kids watch.
  18. Damn man ill be sure to fuse that wire now for sure.
  19. That looks like one of the main power feeds to the rear batteries.
  20. Wow no one even yelled at them to stop.
