Recently from ~2-3k rpm while in neutral or in gear there is a loud rattle coming from the chain side of the engine (on top). ive already removed the axle heat shield, exhaust manifold heat shield is not making noise and I have race headers so the...

ok so i just got my buddyclub RSD's on and they have the upper pillowball mount. Right now i have it so i can adjust camber but if i unmount the upper mount and turn it one bolt hole i should be able to get it to adjust camber/caster correct? I would set it so the top of the strut would go as...

Currently running stock 05-06 type-s wheels with BFG KDW's 225/45/17 tires. I am on Buddyclub N+ dampers. Someone wants to do a straight trade for his AP2 wheels he has on his EP3. I am really considering doing this. I really like those wheels and they are hard to come buy around here. I am...
