    turbo cars which one

    Sorry you didn't get to keep it... hopefully you can get it back (or something better) down the road.

    my del sol pix

    Nice del sol. I would love a scooby or another car but a civic is a good car. That hatchback that Liquid5soul has is a piece of art too, especially in the engine bay with that K20 Frankenstein build. What people do to their cars is in their own interest. I won't say anything negative because...

    turbo cars which one

    I wish I would have just put the money down on a used one when I had the chance. I have yet to hear anyone talk about the cobalt ss/sc in any bad way, everything has been positive. IHATEU how much was your car payment per month? Insurance about average also? I thought I read that they weren't...

    turbo cars which one

    Test drive the certain ones you like. I drove an srt4 and loved it compared to my friend's wrx. Don't go with a gsx or a 3000gt. DSM's are great and have a large aftermarket but equal problems in the future, especially with the chassis rust. Srt4's are good cars but are the second highest on...

    minnesota represent

    Buffalo MN, I ride up in Aitkin/Palisade though mostly since that's where our land is at. Kind of nice since I'm right on the soo line pretty much.

    Loss of power

    No the chain didn't snap. When I was pushing it back it did have power for a split second in third gear but that's it and it was barely anything. My father thinks it could be the transmission but I'm guessing clutch (but then again I'm not very mechanically inclined lol). I'm not that bad...

    Loss of power

    Was driving and twisted the throttle back all the way to get going and the blaster made a loud pop and lost all power. I can shift and it'll change the gears (new to engines but I can tell by the rpm's) and I can rev it with out hearing any knocks. No power is being sent out at all to the...

    2004 arctic cat 300cc

    A friend of mine has a polaris sportsman and it seems pretty dependable but I still don't trust any polaris atv or quad. I saw the arctic cat and ended up buying it. I actually don't regret it at all! and it seems to keep the girlfriend happy too :P I could have saved up an extra grand and...

    2004 arctic cat 300cc

    it's a 300cc 4 wheeler so it's definetely not close to as fast as my blaster but I think it should work perfectly for what I need it for. My family owns a rubicon and 400cc kodiak too so from what it sounds like it should be comparable towards the kodiak. Not being liquid cooled does suck but...

    2004 arctic cat 300cc

    I'm looking to get a 4 wheeler for my girlfriend and friends to ride, it's a low displacement which is what I was looking for, and the price seems great at around $2300. I'm just curious as to how well of a machine this is and If it's dependable and so on. I looked all over the internet and...

    liquid cooling for the blaster

    Don't bother. I asked about these also and I was told that it was a complete waste of money. The temp. our stock and even modified engines run at are perfectly fine (exc. 240 kit).

    twist throttle

    I have the twist throttle because that's what my quad came with. I'll eventually change to the thumb throttle though just cause that's what I'm more comfortable with. Just like the guy above me said, you have more control. Project Blaster sells twist throttle kits though if you do want one.

    few questions

    Hey thanks guys. I also heard to go up a jet size for every 20F temp. difference so I'll keep that in mind. and won't give it any twist on the throttle when I start it. I bought a new spark plug so I'll change that up over the weekend.

    Need a new car

    Ignore the guy who said that the cobalt supercharged sucked. The LSJ in that car will go over 150k, it handles like a dream (except for the steering knuckles breaking very occasionally), and for under 1.5k in modifications if done right it'll run the quarter mile in mid 13's. If this was me...

    few questions

    I have a few questions that would be great if answered! To start off I have a 2002 yamaha blaster completely stock. I live in Minnesota where currently it's near -5 F. When I go out to start the blaster it takes me close to over 30 kicks and they all have to be done as quick as possible...
