theres a way to answer all your questions and more, there is a button to push, that button will unlock wisdom and post ****** from the past. If your spirit is pure and wish to answer your question, search for the button at the top of the page titled "search" it will show you the way and lead you to untold riches

also cleaning your engine would be a good start to finding your oil leak.

Oil leaks are a royal pain to track down and "fix".

should i take my cat off? the damn thing already has a hole in it!! , i read in other threads that that would be bad is that true?
Are we talking about the stock cats here?
I didn't think you could make a hole in it, as it's pretty thick cast iron!

and did anyone answer the feeling of the clutch thing the noise of the gears and etc,
Never saw it...

also the seat belt light thing it keeps fading on and then off and on again "annoying"
Seat belt switch might be bad.

and last but not least i need a couple of opinions from people that have 7s what are some good web sites for exterior and interior upgrades?
should i go with 17s or 18s ?
I prefer 17's.
I think 18's are too big.

what is the lug pattern? 4 - 100 ?
4-lug is 4x114.3mm.
5-lug is 5x114.3mm.

wings? yes,? no?
Depends on the pizza...

so many questions so little time i want to know it all aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!
Before you get all crazy and do this again, might I suggest you ask ONE QUESTION PER THREAD.
Trying to answer a bunch of question in one thread is a royal pain in the ***.
Often times, it goes OT - off-topic and very hard to follow.
Not many people go through the trouble and insert the code like mines to make reading it a lot easier.
Stop getting excited.

And like everyone else suggested, LOOK AT THE STICKY AT THE TOP OF THIS SECTION.
The FAQ answers most of the questions in this thread and probably most of the questions you have in the future.
USE THE SEARCH FUNCTION.

I only answered this cause I was bored and can't sleep...
