    Well, i just did it a few days ago haha, somehow the gas station nozzle keeps shutting off, the evap system in my car is different than the newer models or maybe only in Australia, cant find documentation about it.

    Hello all,
    . . . . Someone mentioned replacing the gear oil in their manual transmission with Redline Gear oil and then the transmission had a much smoother shift action. My transmission at 62K miles is still notchy. What weight did you use?
    GOD Bless and Thanks,
    rich!

    I am on the second engine and trans! 4.5 months out of 18 in the shop!
    Not so happy any more!

    2 days ago I put a trailer hitch on the Pumpkin. I used the Curt hitch & the Curt wiring adapter / pigtail for the trailer lights. The wiring kit was really nice, perfect plug & play. It took longer to read the directions (I really did read them) than it took to hook them up. The trailer hitch went on really nice as well & I used the hole above the fuel filler pipes to avoid drilling the hole in the rear of the left frame. Tonight I pick up a small trailer. I'll let you know how it works...
    I didn't know what to do, so I didn't do anything

    I’m looking at a set of JNC001 Hyper Black 15x8 wheels.

    Wrapped in 195/50r15 rubber. Slight stretch. 0.8% circumference difference for the Speedo. Should make it pretty accurate and look pretty sweet.

    Get a resin shift knob tonight (wife picked it) and changing my dome light to a white LED.

    Those are wide wheels for a Mirage. If you're buying them from a local shop, see if they will mount 1 and let you test fit it on your car (front and rear). You are going to have to roll your rear fenders (and possibly pull them out a little, too) to keep them from rubbing.
