    have you ever looked into any of the adhesives they use in autobody. 3m, lord fusor, evercoat and valvoline all make really good products. probly the best would be the evercoat since that one dont take a special gun, just a typical calking gun is all you need.

Rain performance is governed primarily by tread depth and tread design. Obviously shaved R comps don't do well in standing water tirerack.com has extensive tire comparison data.

    When you get the unit, the install manual will tell you what needs to be done, if Chuck's options dont work.

My car backfires really badly shortly after I reach the point where my v-tec should kick in....was wondering what that could be? yes, i believe you shouldn't have a problem with going to a cable. many things from bad valves, carboned up valves/intake, lean condtions, rich conditions...etc etc....but, if you are swapping to a b series, you shouldn't have that problem anymore, unless this motor you are swapping backfires.

    go to rx7club.com. Create a user name and password. There are some very knowledgeable racers on there. Post in the suspension and brakes sub form. And also post in the race car subforum. Some of the guys that are very knowledgeable are howard coleman, Fritz Flynn, and a couple of other guys that i can't remember. These guys race all the time and have race prepped cars with aftermarket brakes. They have done tons of research on this topic.

    All you need to do is find the height of the tire, and if it's +/- 3% of stock you'll be fine, anything other than that it might mess with your speedo...

    I like to save my money that I would blow on pre-mix coolant and buy something else. 1 gallon of premix = $8 1 gallon of straight anti-freeze = $7 1 gallon of water = free or $1 if you use distilled Hmm, I can get 2 gallons for the price of 1 gallon of premix. Fuck premix.
