My sister wrecked the 91 Firebird that I spent 6 months with my dad fixing up...

I have this set at home. Bought it on sale this past holiday season. When closed, none of the sockets will be free to move around. You just need to be sure you open it right side up(with the sticker on top), otherwise they do spill everywhere. I taped a big sign to the back that says "FLIP OVER, STUPID!" so that I…

The windows were the worst. I've found about 50 different guides to adjust/fix those mirrors, every single one said something different, and none of them really worked...

1991, one of the last of the 3rd gen models. My dad and I bought it for my younger sister as her first car 6 months before she got her licence, since I have a cousin who has rebuilt a few F-bodies with his friends.

We bought a Firebird for 700 that hardly ran. It took forever to start, and barely had any power. It sounded horrible too. We decided to replace the distributor cap, plugs, and wires. That's when we came to an issue. My dad hooked the wires up in the order they were previously, but it wasn't how it should've been…

This is why I liked the old hondas. They made it next to impossible to lock the keys inside the car. You either used the key to lock the car from the outside, or you pulled the outside door handle while simultaneously hitting the power lock button inside. If you didn't pull the door handle, any door that was open…

This right here is pure gold, my friend... I didn't find anything like this when I got FiOS (with the Rev A router), but I'm glad to see somebody found some good ways around that box.

You're going to need to heat the car body pretty well. Hot glue doesn't like to stick to metal unless you get the metal hot too.

I did exactly that at my house. Poor Man's Patch Panel plus a UPS that runs the network for 90 minutes or so. I had lots of jealous replies when Hurricane Sandy knocked out everybody's power and I posted that even in the hurricane apocalypse, I kept my internet.

This kid is born to own this car!

Theoretically, anything RC related can be used, because it's Remote controlled. I did rc cars for a while (like the one pictured above, which I think is an OFNA Hyper 7). These cars use a small battery pack(4 AA batteries or equivalent) to power the reciever, which sends signals to the servos which move the throttle,…

So it's a bad idea to have a car race sponsored by the NRA, but it's perfectly to sponsor a car race with alcohol?

C'mon, make a sign, it's fun! Car geeks are 2 points, Jalops are three!

It is indeed. As odd as it may be to drive, I have always wanted to drive one like that.

At first, I was going to reply to this saying that it probably had something to do with not killing as many trees to make real wood dashboards. But then I got to thinking, is it greener in terms of net co2 released to the atmosphere to just cut the piece of wood for the dash, or to produce the oil used to produce the…

I don't live in that area and am below the pay grade of those who live in that area. It was my first car, bought it for $700, drove it where I needed to, trashed it in the woods, cleaned it up, and sold it at a yard sale a year later for $700 after I got a great deal on a pristine 99 cr-v for only a grand.

The e brake could just suck... I know Honda's are notorious for weak hand brakes. If you can start the car while it's in gear, and the brake all the way up, and it rolls away, I'm sure it won't help much against a speeding car. And there's the fact that if you lock the wheels it could be bad

I've had 2 of the 3 happen simultaneously in my 94 mercury sable. My brake line ruptured after a hard stop, and my gearbox got stuck in drive. In the middle of traffic, in rush hour, on route 1 in south Brunswick nj(locals know how bad that can be), about 50 miles from home. Since I still had a parking brake I got to…

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that if you put the car to "on" while it's in gear and at speed, the car starts back up, similar to a push start on a manual. That's at least what happens when I did it on my auto CR-V.

are they related?
