    ABS Unit making pumping noise more frequently....please help

    I'm not sure exercising your ABS is going to help you at this point...a new ABS unit sounds like it might be in your near future. :frown: Is the ABS making a pumping noise at frequent intervals? That indicates a bladder leak. Not only does it sound horrible and is annoying it reduces the amount...

    Brake Rotor Suggestion

    Unless you're running R-compound tires and have suspension upgrades I'd recommend sticking with OEM calipers, a good aftermarket street pad, good brake fluid and either OEM rotors or a popular OEM-sized aftermarket rotor. If you track the car brake ducting will also help. The Dali rotors are...

    bilstein shocks stock springs, or tein s tech springs stock shocks?

    The lower perch on the Bilstein shocks lower the car approximately 0.875" (7/8") I'd recommend the Bilstein shocks with OEM shocks as others have if that drop is sufficient.

    What's the highest credit score attainable?

    I've been waiting for this one to happen for a long time...:rolleyes: Free credit report.com is of course a joke but come on--if you input your credit card info how dumb do you have to be to think you're not going to get charged for something. The disclaimer is quite clear in that you're not...

    Does it make sense to provide health insurance to smokers and drug users?

    This isn't going to be as drastic a change as many think since money & connections have been buying politicians forever but now it'll just be a little cheaper and easier for them. Less hoops to jump through. A much more efficient corrupting. Back to the insurance issue I just read an...

    Looking for NSX techs in SoCal

    Where'd Jon go? First I've heard of this... As far as the CCU, BrianK is going to be the cheapest route by far. I'm not even sure anyone else is even offering professional repair services for the CCU except Brian. Just about every place you go is going to suggest a replacement. If they can...

    How good does the bigger intake tube work?

    A million threads on this--do a search for AIS scoop gains. I would not spend a dollar on it personally.

    ABS woes solved back to the honeymoon with my NSX!

    I dealt with this PIA problem years ago. Repeated flushing/excercising the ABS can sometimes get things back to normal but sometimes the solenoids and seals are just too old and the system won't hold air causing the air pump to constantly come on to keep the pressure up. After months of...

    2010 Ferrari 458 Italia: "Have we met before?"

    The 458 is absolutely gorgeous but the HSC was no slouch. And don't forget, the basic HSC design has been kicking around since 2003. As I always say I think quite a bit of the negative opinions about the HSC, especially on Prime, were back when many thought Honda could do better and expected...

    Newer Honda Oil Filters

    IIRC Denso still makes a filter with the original OEM dimensions.

    COmptech exhaust- OPINIONS!

    Most descriptions of the CT exhaust put it at about 10% louder than stock. Definitely one of the quietest quality aftermarket exhaust options. As others mentioned the main complaint is that it's not loud enough.

    guy loses 127M in Vegas

    Obviously this guy has a severe addiction, maybe several. He's certainly no fool but the only one responsible for this sorry state of affairs is him. If there's any fool in this story it's the casino that extended him 14 million in credit. I'm not sure how this works but the way I see it...

    Does it make sense to provide health insurance to smokers and drug users?

    Doctors generally are not thieves. But the AMA is. The AMA is the institution that lobbied the government to create barriers to entry into the medical profession in the early 20th century, limit the supply of doctors and create the overly strict licensing and educational requirements that all...

    Does it make sense to provide health insurance to smokers and drug users?

    Your stats above are from 2002...with that being said: Pharma is the single most profitable sector of the US economy. Banking's profitability can also be distorted (and can be very unprofitable as we've seen lately) and would be nowhere near 13% in a system with sound money. Don't know...
