I read a few threads about people adjusting valve clearances and figured 275K miles was enough to qualify if any car does. Lots of plug clips and hose clamps to remove to take off the valve cover. Pulled the front passenger wheel, and pulled down the underbody panel. Using a large breaker bar...
Decided not to bother with this as I'm not really into modding, just bought on a whim a few years ago and never convinced myself to do it.
Also, I assumed I'd have some rusted bolts and studs so those are included, plus a gasket and some heatshielding.
Price $250 for all shipped.

Just at 200K miles and have new tires, brakes, rotors.
-I replaced the brakes (Akebono) and rotors (Centric) because I had some shake during braking. It was perfect at first, but not after just 5K miles.
-I replaced the tires (Bridgestone Turanza Serenity Plus), well because they needed it, but...

This seems like a theory question, but any data is welcome. Will the condenser stay cooler if an upgraded radiator is installed? And subsequently the colder the air coming into the cabin. Such as this one...
Like new Ktuner. Bought it from MAP for $450 on 9/4/18. Just unlocked it from ECU and is ready to go. I am an experienced seller and will only sell if we are both comfortable with the transaction. See pictures and lmk if you have questions.
$350 includes insured shipping and signature required.
So far I'm pretty happy with the car. Good road manners, not too loud, and I'm averaging about 37mpg. This is a work car I drive a lot, so it's time to upgrade. I like the HU and it's tied into everything so I'm going to keep it.
My plan so far: High level signal --> MS-8 --> 900/5 --> GS60 and...
Removed rear caliper. Turned hub by hand. Makes noise, mostly when rotated backwards. The rotor is not touching anything. Bearing feels smooth. Both sides make the same sound and mostly in reverse. Any ideas?
