"Not that yellow wire...the other yellow wire."

I have probably been through more lighting than you can imagine. Everything from PIAA, SilverStar, HID, HIR, and currently running Phillips Xtreme Power bulbs. Granted I use a 9006 being an 05 Matrix but here is what I found in a nutshell:PIAAOverpriced and use higher wattages to get more power. Thi...

Whelan

I ditched the whole HID fad after the set I bought finally died on me after a year of service. I went to HIR bulbs for a much improved light output and am now on a set of Phillips Xtra's. They are amazing in comparison to what my 6K set was. Mostly because the stock lenses are not built for HID ligh...

I just read an article in my local paper about a man who was crushed by his car while working underneath it. He was using a scissor jack which is a HUGE NO NO!I always block my wheels, set the parking brake, car in park and use a deisgnated 3 ton jack and jack stands. There is a reason they hacve eq...

What about Lower Frederick?

Whelan

A GOD Yes. But we need to make a new title for another group. Super Gods or something sick.

Whelan

So my question is this. If the people who lived in the house prior had one alarm company and we wanted to switch. And the house they are going to does not have an alarm. Do they have to pay a cancellation fee or is there some clause in the contracts about moving out and such. Being new owners we sho...

Whelan

That would be any GM Dealership, parts can get it for you

Whelan

What?! No Didgeridoo?

Whelan

It't easy to get a signal when your inside a building.

Whelan

Yeah but of course my company blocks streaming. I used to get it on my BB Storm by going to moodio.fm. But I ditched the BB.

Whelan

What sucks is all these radio apps do not play AM. I don't listen to much music unless I'm in the car with my lady. Otherwise it's Rush, Savage, and Levine.

Whelan

Top Speed on the 03-08 1ZZ is 110-115 depending on if your going downhill and if your governor doesnt kick in. The speedometer max on a car does not determine how fast a car goes.I would imagine the current 09+ are similar with a limit in the 110-115 range for the 1.8L.

Whelan

Just for a dumb post today. Microsoft Word is aggravating me. I would have thought that even in the world of Vista (which I hate using at work) the word comes up with the usual red squiggle underneath. And the brilliant suggestion by the Spelling & Grammar...Overnighter! *Price is Right FAIL Hor...

Whelan

I've never bought a new car period. This would be the first. It's always been pre-owned. As for the price, I would get it for under 30K with the options I want for sure. Then if I own my car, I can sell or trade it and bring it down further. Just sucks that Subaru doesn't offer 0% financing. I shoul...

Whelan

I won't be at a track, but the AWD is a HUGE sell point for me and I know Subaru has one of the best systems around for the price.I figure if this car is 30k with my options, I talk the guy down to 27-28 give or take depending on whats offered. Trade in my car or sell it for anywhere from 4-5k (112,...

Whelan

Instead of waiting and looking for a Focus with a turbo in hatch form in 2012-2013. I may give up before then. The MS3 is a nice car but with that and the Focus coming I am still not partial to leaving my AWD behind. I went to the NYIAS and fell in love. The 2011 Subaru WRX sedan. I know it's not th...

Whelan

Your friend left a bike outside his place for amost an entire year? I'd hate to see what the rest of his backyard looks like. I just spent another 7 hours on my lawn yesterday edging after years of neglect from the previous owner. It looks AWESOME NOW!

Quote, originally posted by cptnsolo77 Â»Thx for posting! That Regal GS looks very nice!Whats up with this A-Team movie??? How could anyone play Mr T except Mr T himself???Did you see the preview yet? I saw Date Night on Friday (HYSTERICAL btw) and they had a trailer. It looks insane!

Whelan

I always turn off the tank. It's in the 10 commandments of grilling.

Whelan

They also had a TON of Camaros in different colors and options. Similar to the Dodge Challenger display. A little overkill and only showcased two Chevy Cruze's, one you could not even sit in. Meanwhile Ford displayed the new Focus in both trims on a HUGE turntable with promoters and loads of other g...

Whelan

I would think you could drop this in the political asylum section. The homeowners tax credit is a nice thing but I'll hold on my comments.

Whelan

Pictures as promised! Sorry not more, but I only snapped what I wanted, unfortunately didn't get the WRX sedan in red, it was hot. The phone has a 3.2 megapixel camera so they came out pretty well.Quick ride on the E train to Penn Station, then 3 blocks down to the Javits Center Ford Focus Corvette ...

Whelan

I will get pictures up later. I took a LONG lunch break and walked the show for 2 hours. It's a perk to working in the city I guess, lol. Anyways, I can definitely say I am getting older cause I skipped a lot of cars I would oggle over. The Lambo's, Porsche's, Audi's, etc. and spent more time in mod...

2005 Matrix XR AWD I use the Rain X wiper blades with no springs, just the smooth solid blade. It is amazing!

Whelan

That's why it pays to do your taxes early. I got my money back in February

Whelan

The stock intake on a pre 2009 Vibe/Matrix runs a lot of tubing and sits in front of the left wheel well, very vulnerable. I have the supercharger intake tube that goes from the filter and down to get a more direct flow of air instead of the U shaped awkwardness of the stock tubing. Works great but ...

Granted most people should have enough common sense to avoid large and deep puddles during times of heavy rains or flooding. But it amazes me that all the news stories of people getting rescued after being stuck in a deep puddle or what not, they have not addressed the bigger issue. Learning how to ...

I call cheating, the cat should have to stay on the board.

I haven't pulled my from the basement yet this year. But I bought it two years ago. It's a Gary Fisher Tarpon in orange with black wheels. I love it, it's a sick bike. Definitely not for the hardcore MB'er but for a person starting out or who does a mix between light trail and roading it is a great ...

Whelan

Those are def. not sale prices. Weber is pretty strict on their pricing so you won't find one much cheaper than the retail pricing. If you do online, it is most likely not including shipping. (i.e. Weber Spirit E-310 for $399 plus $150 for shipping) or something like that.I bought the Ducane Affinit...

Whelan

Yeah my dad has a Genesis Silver C (new Genesis E-310 in today's world) about 10 years or so old. Still works perfectly and cooks great! My brother has a Genesis Silver A (the new Spirit E-210). I couldn't pull myself to get just a two burner grill. I bought the Ducane Affinity 3200. The side burner...

Whelan

Well BTUs are not a true definition of a grills performance. Depending on the size of the cooking area BTUs can vary greatly from 26,000 - 60,000 or more. I pulled the trigger.

Whelan

My first grill I want to stay under $400. I am between the two below. I would love a Weber but I can't get over only having two burners, I like indirect cooking sometimes. Ducane is now owned by Weber and are slightly cheaper in price, but still get good reviews. This model sells for $450 listed but...

Whelan

Clean, although I would change out the tails. Upgrade to LEDs.

Whelan

Ya know to this day the 2.5RS is still one of my favorite models of Subaru's on the road. Even in stock form they were just fun.

Whelan

Acura should hire the engineers or designers at ronjonwheels. Seriously a HUGE improvement.BEFORE:AFTER:or

Have you considered painting it? Ceramic tile is paintable as long as you do it right and cover with a clear urethane. http://www.askthebuilder.com/7...shtmlAlso, removing Tile can be problematic and you can get into more than you bargained for. Given that the tile is from the 70's you could maybe h...

It may require some extra work in a Prius, but this should be something the drivers are taught. Too bad they spend to much time smiling at their environmentally friendly selves in the mirror to pay attention to owners manuals. I know nobody reads them, actually I do, especially when I get a new car....

Stocks are fun if you know whats goin on. Even though your shares are worth $350, you still bought $2k worth.

I read that article. I was shocked to see the jump in Lincoln and Mercury sales as well. I'm curious to see how the new Ford's will look with Mercury facing, they need to do some work to get them to truly look different. Mercury should aim it's guns at Acura while Lincoln at Caddy.Although a peek at...
