    K04 Flutter Issue

    I'm tirelessly searching for an answer to this question at this point. Every old thread about this derails into an argument between Arin@APR, Mike@Forge, and someone else that may or may not know what they're talking about. I'm having an issue with K04 flutter using a Neuspeed P-Flo intake, and...

    Won't come out of the stupid igniter, because my stupid self tried to replace the igniter without removing the bulb and locking ring, and everything came out together. SO, the tabs on the bulb that lock it into the igniter, and the tab openings are blocked by the locking ring. Can't see where...

    Crappy S2 vs Hawk-eye WRX

    <CSB> Driving back home on the highway after having some delicious food and shakes at Susie's with some friends, and a hawk-eye WRX shows up on the highway and pulls up next to me. He downshifted next to me to get my attention, and I played along right away. He got over to the left lane and I...

    Rear caliper removal?

    I can't figure out exactly how to remove my rear passenger caliper. Does anyone have experience doing this? Edit: I should clarify that I've already removed the pads and caliper carrier. I need to get the caliper completely off the car to replace it. Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk 2

Just asking for opinions on whether I should put it back in, or if I should buy a new caliper, or if theres another option I don't know of. There...

    120,000 Mile Detail

    At exactly 119,999 miles, I parked my car in my friend's garage to hit it with claybar and wax to get the paint looking snazzy again. The claybars didn't get too dirty through this entire job, but the car does look refreshed, and it was well worth the time spent. Under some lights

    3 AM Dog Walker

    After a great night of BBQ'ing for the 4th and some time spent with the girlfriend, I'm on my merry way at about 2:30 AM to take her home. I pulled up in front of her house, and we sat in the car for about 30 seconds talking about some random crap. In the middle of one of our sentences, she...
