I ended up getting an aftermarket Tach 3 1/4" from Glow Shift on ebay as a present. Good seller, but I decided I really don't need it after all. It's not that it's big, it's just unnessicary and will take up more room than needed. Your case though, I'd still get a small one just incase. They ar...

Windows down no matter what usually. The only time I'll use A/C if I'm in stop and go traffic on a humid day or if it's above 90 degrees.

Jack... I try not to take offense to any comments on here.. but that one hit home.. I have close family in law enforcement so I find that comment offensive. Cops have a job to do just like we all do. People speeding is a leading cause of traffic accidents and traffic-related deaths in the nation. ....

I don't think tiptronic is as bad as some of you make it out to be. I'm not gonna go hating on something, just because it emulates our enthusiast ideals. Hey, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, no? NO Anyway, a coworker of mine has a Mazda6 with tiptronic, and it's actually fairly respons...

Whoever voted yes needs to go to the hospital and get checked for brain worms. Speeding and driving wrecklessly is not the same. You can go the speed limit and still drive wrecklessly (IE: Swerving in and out of lanes, driving on the wrong side of the road, running read lights, hitting cars and leav...

No offense but a strut bar for $205? Shifter assembly for $250? Expensive as hell. I'd shop around first.

sorry but I gotta give Calypso props on here, cuz Triple Diamond Power will always waste whatever "power" Hyundai can find. I had an 04 Galant LS and it was an awesome car for a four door. 230hp/250lbtq is nothing to sneeze at. Hyundai has had ONE car (the atzerra or whatever) that has po...
