• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Air Box Oil anyone tried this?

    What's to stop you from connecting the "out" side of the catch can to the air box instead of venting to atmosphere? This would be a legal solution to #1 thru #3.

    Mel's Monster Garage Fresh Air Intake

    Dense cool air is always a good idea. What I'm wondering about is the air temperature data that is being fed into the ECU. I know that my unit reads really high temps any time you stop the Spyder and that those temps do not return to reasonable levels untill after a prolonged ride at speed. My...

    mesh jacket

    From "K.R." (1/09): "I enjoyed reading your write-up on the 4.0 jacket from Joe Rocket; you have an easy and entertaining to read style. I know you guys didn't state that you 'tested' the jacket, so I don't feel it's fair to criticize your article from that standpoint. However, I would like...

    Cold Blooded Spyder

    Mine runs fine with 0 bars. I understand that this is not normal behaviour for a Spyder. Therefore something must be broken but I have no intentions of finding it and fixing it. ;)

    I'm currently saving up for a Motoport Ultra II air mesh kevlar jacket. http://www.motoport.com/_product_35442/Ultra_II_Air_Mesh_Kevlar_Jacket I plan to order mine minus the upper pockets and in the grey color rather than that odd yellow green color. Expensive but reputed to be the coolest...

    nitrogen spyder

    The nitrogen that Shell is referring to is part of the mix of stuff they add to the gas to modify the octane rating and the detergents for keeping the fuel system clean. It's always been in there it's just that the marketing guys found out about it.......no big deal and no change in their...

    Heat on Left Leg No Foil on Foam!

    As the days warm, the heat on my left leg where it touches the tupperware has become uncomfortable. Opened up the left side and noticed that unlike all the rest of the foam in the engine bay the two upper pieces have no foil covering :shocked:. Pretty sure they're supposed to come from the...

    A LIGHT WENT OFF IN MY HEAD

    That's why I mentioned side marker lights, you know where our reflectors currently are. And that you might, and I stress might, get away with the wheel dots if they were yellow. Has anyone considered electroluminescent panels for the marker lights? Flat and they could fit behind the...

    A LIGHT WENT OFF IN MY HEAD

    I'm pretty sure that you can have side marker lights in every state of the union. But that would mean yellow up front and red at the back. So if the Sylvania dots came in yellow you might get away with it. All in all it would be better to find a way to put lights where the reflectors are.

    SPEEDOMETER ERROR

    The GPS is a lot more accurate in almost all cases! If I remember right there's a way to tweak the speed numbers via the BUDDs system. Might have the tech look at it the next time the Spyder has to go in for work.
