+1 the tC really isn't bad looking and is a pretty well laid out vehicle in all aspects. It has an up an coming aftermarket scene. It's a pretty good platform to work with. True, but it's still a high-polar moment fwd economy car. Bad platform if you want to make it a performance car. Great if you ...

i love the kumhos so far. but then the tires i had before were pretty crappy. according to all the reviews on the tire rack though these tires are on par with performance tires that cost 3 times as much. haven't driven them in the wet yet so we'll see how they do in that case. they're 225/45/17. i ...

i wouldn't worry about it, there's really nothing a valet could do to completely screw up your clutch just from parking and pulling it back around. That being said valet's are a bit of a pain and just kills me when they slip the hell out of the clutch as they pull away. :evil: had my car washed thur...

if the engine explodes or you bust something inside will the car just coast to a stop or ... what will happen? If the engine busts..to be honest..very little happens. Heck you can break a rod and still drive. So you will most likely just coast to a stop..It's when other parts break within the drive...

Redlining the car in and of itself won't kill your engine...Most cars especially conservative redlines. My car has a 6500 rev limit, but will happily rev to 7200 all day long. The average car can and will rev mechanically be able to rev at least a couple hundred and usually several hundred hundred r...

do NOT go with dynamat. It really is overpriced. Personally I recommend http://www.secondskinaudio.com I have used it myself. I've bought over $1000 if their stuff. The quality is far better than dynamat. They've consistently been top rated when it comes to sound deadening and that's not factoring ...
