I wonder if ultrapure water (as in Milli-Q, 18 MΩ, TOC <10 ppb) can used as a flush.....

not sure... but distilled water cuts down on cooling system corrosion big time because there are no minerals in it, has a higher boiling point, and will make the car run slightly cooler...

Just scheduled my timing belt with North Dallas Imports due to recomendations from here. About $600 for the Timing belt package. Thanks guys, saving me about $300.

Saving you more than $300. Dealer's charge about $1000 and that doesn't even include the water pump, which North Dallas Imports does include in the $600.

TRANCEMISSION posted this suggestion last page as a suggestion...

I'm planning on going down to Hewitt!

So, he'll do it for $250? I really wanted to help, but I guess that'll have to do.... I'm waiting for a replacement ballast to show up at my door so I can once again drive at night... Fucking undercarriage spray took out a ballast again....

Where's the cheapest place to get OEM rear rotors? Does anyone know? I need to get new pads too, but I want fancy ones...

Let me know when you want to get it done. Maybe you can drop your car off one day when he is off since your local, or after work. If your looking for rotors and pads talk to Wholesalepartsguy I think is the vendors name or use what i use. Acurapartswarehouse.com. You can get everything for cost plus shipping. All OEM, now if you want better pads maybe go with some Hawk performance pads. Also EBC makes good pads. EBC yellowstuff is their best track/drift/street performance pad, greenstuff is a street performance pad for under 125 mph and redstuff is for 125+. Now greenstuff is their most sold pad so id say go with them for a performance pad. 30% improvement over OEM.

So this coming weekend for the locals are we doing something out toward grapevine? I will talk to Trance I think he still might want to do it at his Dad's so we can all congregate on where to eat and so on. Or we can do all that in here.

Trance's place sounds like it might be better, only problem is that again it's far for the Ft Worth people. Are there even any confirmed Ft Worth people for this weekend?
