Default New digital camera = new pics of car, plus a tech ?

I got a new camera for my b-day so i decided to take some pictures of my dirty car today.













I wanted to add this pic of a hatch at my work because i think the rims look good on it. He matched the color of his car.



Heres the tech question: After a cold start, my car, when driving at a constant speed seems to jerk (as if you were in a low gear at high rpms lightly tapping the gas). When i speed up, the car doesnt jerk. Anyone know what this is?

Only at low speeds or all speeds?

My car did this right when I got it, I changed the spark plugs, fuel filter, air filter...and its been fine since. Basically, making sure all the routine maintenance has been done is a good start.

Are those purple wheels? That's cute.

Check your throttle body too and make sure it's not all gummed up w/ crapola.

Way to much for such a crappy hood. I paid around 400 last summer for this hood. There are many imperfections along with a couple of scratches along the hood. I would go for a VIS hood or fiberimages. i have heard that both companies are good. If anyone else has a difference experience, please tell.

Spark plugs, from my experience. But yep, my boy's fuel pump was going bad and it was doing something along the lines of bad spark plug symptoms too.

Don't get the NGK blue wires or crappy generic 8mm silicon wires. The stock ones are better. If your stock ones are shot, just go with another set of oem wires.
