Contest (ended Jul 31/2010) Win a ScanGauge 3-in-1 automotive computer

ooo ok. i dnt think it could be that much i think its not as a big package since its just a gauge n sensor stuff in it.

I sure would love a ScanGauge! Was reading about the DIY ones that you can build but they look more trouble then they are worth.

can you send me some links for the DIY

If you can trace & splice wires (VSS, injector signal, neg, pos), you can make your own slimmed down version of a ScanGauge.

On a side note, I like the "wikipedia" feel of the page design there at that link... :D

so is the scan gauge a really good edition to the aveo. does it improve anything?

It improves your awareness of how you drive your car in most cases... They say it helps driver's with heavy foot to see the actual MPG as they drive. :D Also it helps erase codes and read them right there, which is useful.

EvySpeedy - check here for more info about the SG2:

LOL... it's ANY thread on this forum, so not just here. I was trying to tell you this earlier when you told me to read the first forum. So anywhere - introductions, pictures and videos, open forum - all of it counts. :D

Posts in any threads in any forums count. Good luck!

Well the company is providing the ScanGauge. We gave away the $150 for Aveo parts in the last contest though.

sounds great

hopes i wins!~

I hope to win too. But so does everyone else except Byron and Hunter. 8)

i'd say serega is the one with the most chances to win, i think he's the most active user on here

lol cus he spams every topic lol jk :lol:

are you saying they should cancel the drawing and just give him the scan tool so he shuts up?
:P [-X

lol.... :lol: bunch of haters. 8) getting a scan tool won't get me a job any sooner, so I'll still keep posting. Rabbit, sounds like you're back... how 'bout that invoice?

I would love that sg2. Feel free to send it my way! :mrgreen:

lol idk about that, your gonna have to post about 30 times and hour to catch up :P

Not necessarily. Byron did it with very few posts. It does give you more chances to win to have a lot of posts but definitely doesn't guarantee it. :D

am I entered? :D

yes, but you need to post about 20 times a day to beat spam boy :P

LOL... It's not always about the post count. Larger post count gives you more chances, but byron84 had... what 28 posts or something when he won? 8) In your case it definitely helped... ;)

Good luck to everyone that posted in the last month now that the contest is almost over once again.

that passed rather quickly

You need to buy a shim kit for the rear. Really not worth it since even really low you won't pick up enough camber or toe to wear the rear tires faster than the fronts.

A slightly above stock camber degree reading is better for handling as well.

So if this contest ends at midnight E.S.T today, that's 9 pm our time (Pacific), right? If so, that means only two more hours left... 8)

The rims fill out the wheel wells pretty good. I am having trouble aligning it though. I got them at Discount Tire and they tried their best to align all 4 wheels but could only do the front 2, since the back are fixed mount. Does anyone have any tips on wheel alignment?

Thanks,

I wasn't going to respond to that post, since that guy sounds suspicious, like a spammer or something. :shock: but since you guys already answered, this is what looks suspicious:
First off, I couldn't find any info on discount tires store website about them even carrying XXR tires, and their list is pretty long. (HTTP://WWW.tires.com). Second, none of the Discount Tire (aka America's Tire in OR and CA) do alignments, just sell tires and wheels and do balance and installation and such... third, a link, but no specification on which model of the wheels he got.
The only thing he spent time on was spelling out the website. Let's see if he posts again.

Xxr is just sportmax. One of the most listed wheels on eBay.

?

Dunno about the post though like you said. But I just answered the question.

That did seem to go by quite quick!

Congratulations EvySpeedy! 8)

Congrats! I knew it wasn't in the cards for me so I bought one and it came in the mail friday!!! Used it that night headed to a friends 36 mi away and got 43.7mpg. It is going to change how I approach driving even more now. You can see how things like ac affect the mpg and how efficient the car gets when the water temp gets up to 190. Grill block will be going on for faster warm up for short trips. I am really impressed with it ...enjoy!

Congrats EvySpeedy!

congrats Evy. it wouldn't do me any good anyways as my car is OBD1.5
