  1. blu-ray has a little over 60% of the market share since inception. basically, since an ever-increasing percentage of movie corporations are supporting blu-ray vs. HDDVD, it stands to reason that blu-ray will be the most supported. but i'm waiting it out.

  2. i remember when that happened! the guy stole that tank from the national guard armory right behind my high school. i knew that guy who owned the yellow 280z, too :( he was in the navy and had a couple other ones. he's since been reassigned. for you SD guys he was in the military housing on linda vista rd right by genesee ave

  3. Sadly untrue actually,it still continues as if unaffected by intelligent ridicule.

     

    Hondas may not be z's.But if you need a daily driver thats good on gas,somewhat peppy and needs to run for 400k they are pretty sweet.

     

    That car is rediculous and has to be a hoot.I remember in an issue of grassroots magazine where someguy built his budget racer by stuffing corvette everything into a crx,that was pretty sweet,and scary i would think.

    as easy as it is to hate on hondas, they have their niche and are pretty quick with their little 4bangers

  4. sure it's been covered before, but here goes:

     

    1. fabricate a chain tensioner out of wood (chiltons has a good picture) or buy one from MSA

    2. hammer the CT down between the chain

    3. make sure that tensioner is tight!

    4. see #3 (i cannot stress the importance of this!)

    5. unbolt the cam gear

    6. using a hammer and a small piece of 2x4, knock that cam gear off the cam

    7. get the chain off the gear (make note of the dots)

    8. remove head, careful not to knock the CT loose

    9. clean surfaces and put new gasket

    10. reassemble

     

     

    EDIT - pick up a chilton's or an FSM. pretty much mandatory if you're pulling your engine apart.
