In the video, the extra (partial) turns on the lug nuts are small. The seats on the wheels do compress a bit providing cold-working and, as a side effect, hardening the surface of the seats. If there was coating overspray, the tightening process compressed or removed it. However, those extra...

Is this your first helmet? When it comes to helmet selection, it depends on the shape of your head. You need to physically try them on. Usually, one brand has a similar fit, so a model of a brand should represent how that brand fits on your head. Is there a local speed shop or motorcycle shop...

Bleed the system, it likely has air bubbles and, please, do not open the radiator cap when the system is hot and pressurized.

Next time don't fret too much about the centering rings. They're there to aid with wheel installation onto the car. Their absence doesn't pose problem with the wheels being installed correctly on the car; the cone seat on a lugnut does the job of centering the wheel.

Are you talking about a centering ring so a wheel with larger hub bore can fit snugly on the hub?

Sounds like air bubbles in the cooling system. Easily fixed. Something in the cooling system was probably removed and was reinstalled incorrectly.

XXR looks good on paper, appearance and specifications wise. I'm not fond of the quality and the hue of the coating. The prices are surely very affordable.

There is no single brand immune to recalls nowadays. I get inside information on one of the Japanese brands and it's laden with recalls regardless of the brand image. The recalls you don't hear nor see are because you don't own a vehicle from those brands. Be thankful that there are recalls...

I set it the other way around. 1. The windshield-end pivot is articulated at maximum so that the shaft is tilted up toward the ceiling and away from the driver to maximize forward visibility and to provide more space for a Valentine One. 2. Then, while holding the shaft stationary, the...

Ever heard about clear bra aka paint protection film?

Welcome to the forum! Are you concerned about rearward view when backing up? If so, the camera and parking sensors help up to a point.

The diameter of the wheel plays a less important aspect as long as the wheel clears the strut and the caliper up front (more room for the rear). The next step is sizing the tire, depending on several aspects, the tire OD can vary as much as an inch or so from the original OD which is just about...

Welcome to the forum! I used to have a Z33, now a Z34 in my stable.

Never had problem with damaged vapor canister (or a related DTC) in any of my cars over several years of the practice and I believe my methodology is even more extensive in packing fuel in than mentioned in this thread.

Did you mean 70% throttle?

This just happened to me last week. I reset the fade and the symptom hasn't returned.

In GM K2-generation pickup trucks, there is such a thing as upfitting. It's basically adding an OEM switch (soft switch) and an OEM relay placed in certain port in the fuse box. The switch controls the relay through the canbus. This requires a good knowledge of the canbus structure. I wonder if...

My Stinger didn't come with those Bridgestone tires (it has the Michelin Pilot 4). I have no experience with them, but I can imagine the asphalt sealer being slick when wet. Road markers are usually more slick than a typical road surface and they have embedded sand to improve traction and...

I have experienced that several times. My driveway is steep enough, when coated with ice, to cause sliding with parking brake engaged. With the service brake engaged, it would stay still, but when only 2 tires were braked, it would slide.
