Well that's something. Two facts you might find interesting:

1) E-gas still has a cable. It goes from the pedal to the pedal position sensor.

2) If the throttle plate was sticking, you would...

I haven't looked at the shop manual, but that looks like an intake resonator. Usually added to make the intake sound the way they want and/or remove an annoying resonance. Removal of such a device...

Why use anything but car soap to clean wheels?...

Why use anything but car soap to clean wheels? All those cleaners are a paradox... once you start using them, you have to keep using them because they keep stripping off any kind of protectant,...

I'm interested in this as well.... but I must say I'm almost pissed off at the price of admission. 2X the cost of a very nice ipod, just to connect said ipod to the car. Makes me want to rip out the...

MN is right. You need to know the offsets. However the offset's don't need to be exactly the same as OEM. If you are only using a 205 front and 255 in the rear, you could get away with probably as...

In the grand scheme of things, the difference in acceleration is negligible. You will, however, notice the change in ride quality, especially if the 18s you choose are a lot heavier. People say the...

Looks nice but the GT3 bumper looks too "heavy" without the side skirts IMO. Also those Carrera lightweight wheels have a "light" look to them. Some Turbo II style wheels might match better because...

It should not pose a problem. The user is able to stop the motion at any time. Also, the OneTouchTop will automatically time out if the top does not completely open or close. :)

It's not terribly likely that it would be actuated on the highway, because you have to have the parking brake pulled up a click or two in order to operate the top. This allows you to start driving...

The Boxster version of these wheels is more flush, because the offsets are high and they are narrow (7.5" and 9")
