Re: Remove hood latch, or keep it? (hood pins)

Re: Hoosier discounted R6's

I think it has been a couple of years since the R7 was released. I doubt there was any production overlap between the two. So I would say the R6 they have are a couple years old.

Re: ULTIMATE Budget Race Car Trailer!!!!!

The Toyota dealers around here have piles of chassis laying around. I understand there is a recall to replace the chassis?

Re: 2000 Civic AT Crank No Start

There is a bit of adjustability in the stock radius rods. You can shim it on either side of the bushings. Also, you can set the front cross member at a minor angle to help out. Small adjustments...

Re: Adding a trailer hitch on 1990 honda crx think i need a rear bumper reinforcement

Re: Loose crossmember?

It is hard to see in that picture but is the nut stripped? If not try to tack weld the nut and collar to the unibody.
