You could also stick the parts in the freezer overnight.

Also, if you have a shirt that is wrinkled, put it on a hanger and bring it to the bathroom while you take a hot shower. after 15-20 in the hot humidity it'll relax and lose most of the wrinkles.

Visited Montana this weekend. Cheapest rental above an ultra-small, econo-box was a V6 automatic Mustang. I thought, "Sure. Why not?"
Then I got there. It wasn't auto. It wasn't V6. Only 6k on the clock. I added 900 miles. I rarely luck out with the rental companies. I guess no one is renting them. Very fun car.
Drove my car to work this morning... RJM pedal will be purchased by year end. This thing is ridiculous. LOL

This ^ Don't ever let clothes you don't want wrinkles in dry all the way and sit. Pull them out while still slightly damp.

I am not exaggerating. However, I am using big words.

The threads were pretty cruddy so they didn't want to move in either direction. Some overnight soaking with the penetrating oil, some elbow grease with some WD40 and a wire brush free'd them up. Spent a few hours today disassembling the fronts in anticipation of the replacement struts. I'm almost glad I had to tear them down this far as it's really helped my understanding of the adjustments and what each part is for. Anxiously awaiting! This thing looks like I put a lift kit on with the new wheels. It's in desperate need of the drop!

I read this quickly and thought you were suggesting he put his pants in the freezer.
You need the good hangers with shoulder pads to bunch up the neck a bit so they don't stretch out. Guess who's wife wont touch their laundry
I'll have to try the Low for 15 minutes them hang them up thing. I usually hang my t-shirts up out of the washer because i don't want them shrink up in the dryer. But sometimes the next starts to stretch and i hate that. I like my neck collar snug. Then when their almost dry from hanging up i'll throw them in the dryer for about 10 minutes and pull them out.

Two other 6MT owners drove my car last weekend. That moment of clarity happened within seconds rolling slowly out of the hole, followed by validation while shifting into 2nd, and an immediate determination to put this mod at the top of their lists.

CSC blew at 18K miles, and was replaced with OEM parts under warranty.
Yes, I have the original clutch & flywheel. I've zero plans to upgrade them... ever. I probably won't own the car beyond 60K miles, or another 6 years. (6K/yr on average)

I'm having my car serviced in a couple weeks for the faulty gas cap. I should see if they can take a look at that. When I let off my clutch pedal a little too soon without giving it some gas (hills), there is an audible racket noise coming from the transmission. Actually, even normal takeoffs depending on the incline, I will hear it as well. It reminds me of the noise my maxima 5mt made. I've only experienced this on nissan transmissions.

Alignment done today. Front Caster is 5.7 on right and 5.6 on left. Guy didn't notice the Caster can be adjusted with my SPC front kit. Rear camber is 2.6 on right and 2.7 on left and Toe is fine. Will be picking up some rear arms only and taking it back. Got unlimited Alignments for 160 for 3 years and it's transferable to another car if I ever get rid of this one.
