I'd keep them.

Anybody can buy a Mr. Mikes seat, but factory leather is HARD to come by. Especially in the condition those are in. If you sell them then the seats will be gone and pretty soon the money will be gone, too.

I think the factory leather is more durable than Mr. Mikes, too.

I do want to remove the gutter holders though, above the doors. Huh? The gutters just clip on to the edge of the roof panel. I'll try to snap a pic of one of my other cars so you can see what I'm talking about. Have I said that I love it yet? oh, also, I LOVE IT!!! I'm glad, and I'm glad you have i...

Damn, that's a sweet looking car dude.

You know, one of the things that makes that car look good is that it does not have the stock rain gutters on it. Removing these makes a Fiero look a lot cleaner. Especially a fastback.

More specifically, L44 is the VIN 9 HO 2.8 that's in the Fiero.

Thanks, Donk. I guess it was a little more obscure than I thought.

Good intake and exhaust tuning.

I wasn't aware that stock Hondas had VE > 100%. Impressive.

Ding a ding dang my dang a long ling long

I went to watch the drags last Sunday. This was the real deal – NHRA Nationals. Top Fuel Dragsters, Nitro burning funny cars, Pro Stocks, etc. These were the big boys. They had been in town since Friday and the finals were on Sunday. It was amazing. If you’ve never been, you must go at least onc...

I think open cars in the 13's need a roll bar. Closed cars in the 12's need a roll bar (which I guess means I should have one) closed cars in the 11's need a full cage (?) NHRA rules Roll bars required for: Open cars running 13.99 or faster Closed cars running 11.99 or faster Roll cage required for...

How do you guys feel about tubular control arms up front? I am thinking that if I go that route I will just use rod ends on the control arms, a road racing spindle and hub which will get my eningeering student brain trying to design a tubular front with differnt geometry and all. Here's what I thin...

They didn't shoot him on the run. They shot him after they caught him and had him on the ground. If I suspected he was a suicide bomber, I wouldnt give him the chance to trigger the bomd laying on the ground. Then I want more competent cops. If the only way that three guys can control a man they al...

I'll have a 2.5 RS rally car in the shop this week so I'll take some measurements. And here they are. The car I measured is a 2000 Impreza RS 2.5. These measurements will be the same for just about any 4-cyl Subaru. I used two primary measuring references. The axle centerline (where the axles pass ...
