    And who says V8's have poor mpgs?

    My main driving is done on I-85 between Auburn and Atlanta (so it's hot and humid the whole way during the summer), and I used to get about 23.5-24 mpgs on the trip. Since I got my Eibachs on in March, however, I see 25 to 26 mpgs on the highway in my 04 V8. Now a days I usually drive between 70...

    Lincoln LS's future

    I'm personally hoping to keep my LS for a long, long time, but the availability of parts has me rather worried that doing so will not be easy. Mechanically, my car is sound, but little plastic interior parts seems to love breaking, just like you're talking about b.e, and I HIGHLY doubt I'll be...

    The new Subwoofers

    LOL @ arguments. More on topic, nice subs as far a budget system goes. I do agree with what others have said, just be careful when running cheap stuff like Legacy and Boss. It's really more worth your time to look for good condition used stuff off the bay rather than go with cheap new stuff...

    Lincoln LS's in Atlanta, GA...where yall at.?

    I've been wondering the same thing, but never made a thread to ask. I'm an Atlanta native, but I go to school in Auburn, AL. Spend more time down here for obvious reasons, but I'm back fairly often. Good to see there's at least 1 other LS person in the ATL.

    Go take a picture of your car as is

    Only Japanese cars I would ever own would be Nissans... And of course an even slightly built 240 could take an LS, that's a given. I've got another friend with an RB26 swapped S14 that would run circles around my car. He's putting down something like 350rwhp with only 8lbs of boost and a bad...

    Go take a picture of your car as is

    Hope I don't ruin this thread too much... My stock 04 next to friend's I-don't-know-what-year Accord and another friend's 1994 or so S14. Love my LS, but it needs to be a bit lower so, got my Eibachs on the way as of today! Woo hoo! Sorry about the lighting, but I didn't know how to set up my...

    Broken driver seat

    I'm fairly certain that's the part that's broken and I'm not really surprised that I'm stuck until I can get a new seat....bummer. Thanks for the quick response!

    Broken driver seat

    I tried searching but came up with nothing related, so here goes with another thread... I've got an 04 with the heated and cooled seats, tan leather (just in case anyone might happen to have another one for sale). The problem I'm having is that the right side of the seat back does not stay in...

    Bike rack...?

    I personally have a large subwoofer in the way of putting anything through the trunk and into the back seat so to carry my bike, I found a Rhode Gear EuroShuttle on CL for 30 bucks. Works very well. Requires that you take the front tire off since in has QR mounts at the front, but I've cruised...

    car got broken into again

    Damn man, that sucks. Makes me unbelievably paranoid about my car to hear about things like this. I go to school at Auburn and have to keep my car parked a mile away and just hope that the "security personnel" the university keeps walking around out there do their jobs. I can't imagine having...

    my beater, CANT BE BEAT!!!

    We got an 84 Oldsmobile 98. Don't remember how many miles, but damn, it's in a bad way, but still runs. I don't have the entire list of problems but will try and name a few of the top of my head... The AC doesn't work heater doesn't work both front seats don't move (power seats) the passenger...

    Will This Work

    It will likely take a bit more than gluing to replace a screen in one of those radios. Also, the chances of you finding just the LCD are basically zero. That's a very specific part that was probably only manufactured for a specific number of units, with no spares being made. It's likely that...

    My 04 ls so clean!!!!

    Nah man! I was talking about MY car, which is also an 04, that's why I mentioned it. Sorry about the confusion there!!!

    My 04 ls so clean!!!!

    Very nice car! Except for the broken bumper covers, I love my 04. Needs a good cleaning real, real bad though... I don't mean to hijack this thread too bad, but I just might here. You said you're running 400 watts into a Treo sub right? Do you get any kind of dimming from the headlights at all??

    since were on that ugly car topic

    Actually managed to find some crappy pics of it online. Probably older pics, but you get the idea. At least it wasn't lifted.... http://www.hiphopcars.com/themed-cars/richard-petty-charger/

    since were on that ugly car topic

    It's hilarious to see those themed donks. They're nothing new down here between Montgomery and Atlanta. Some of them are hilarious actually. The most recent one I saw was a 2008 or so Charger that was dedicated to Richard Petty...Had a decal of him on the hood, was about the same color blue as...

    New Here! Need some suggestions!

    Just thought I'd give a little input on this...I got a 2004 just so you know. Right now I'm running Polk MMC570s in all my doors, which are the 5x7 Momos that aren't made anymore. I'll bet the the Mobile Monitors sound fantastic. I would say the Polks would definitely be good speakers...

    Anyone Use Sirius/XM?

    Haven't ever really used Sirius in a vehicle, but we got it in our kitchen. Replaced the old GE fm radio that's about as old as dirt. I really like it, especially the jazz, blues, and jam stations. We usually just leave it on the jazz station all day. It's pretty good and worth it IMO.

    06 THX speakers upgrade?

    I hope no one minds me chiming in on this... Remember that the speakers make the biggest difference when you're changing something in your stereo. The door speakers made the single biggest improvement over everything else I've done. It was worth it IMO to replace everything in my 2004 but the...
