Don't post much but I saw the thread and couldn't resist. I've been following this game for a while and it looks freaking incredible, like a mashup of my favorite horror films and the creatures from The Thing. Preordered for pc, picking it up soon. Anyway ea organized a little online contest...

I have no idea what this "visitor message" crap is, but I assume it's a pm system because I can't find the "send pm" option anywhere in the new fubar system. Haven't gotten back to you yet because of general end-of-semester panic. I'm still waiting for funds to transfer out of my paypal...

Haha, you bastard. I just got new front tires and alignment yesterday, those threads only started showing a day or two earlier, I swear. Pro tip- never let costco touch your car. Their alignment job was terrible, and I only realized this some weeks ago when I started seeing excessive wear...

Seems like 21-20 mpg no matter how I drive it. Rebuilt 7mgte, 4.3 rear, only mod is the exhaust. Mix of highway and city driving, leaning more toward city.

I don't get it, I've shot the guy like 30 times already and I'm still not making the leaderboards. Fun game though.

Sweet, a logical excuse to keep dumping cash into it! Not that an addict needs a logical excuse, but I want to still own it when people start calling it a "classic". That'll be a good day.

lol, don't worry, I'm talking in imperial but all the math was done in metric. 60mph = 96.56kph, 17" rim = .215m radius, 23lb = 10.43kg, etc. Actually, I never converted kph to mps :nono:, so I'll concede and say I'm HALF a dumbass, but it doesn't change the ratio of rotating kinetic energy to...

I just did some math. The energy of a stationary 23lb wheel rotating at 60mph is 24311.9 newtons (K rotating=Iw^2), and the energy of a 23lb mass moving at 60mph is 48120.2 newtons (K = mv^2). So unless I'm missing something, and I'm sure friction and drag have an effect but not THAT much an...

Yeah, not only is there the effect of accelerating that mass forward, but the effect of radial acceleration too. Not that it hasn't been said before, just putting it in different terms. I think the effect of lost wheel mass is something like 4x the effect of lost static mass, but don't quote...

About 30 bucks in an envelope. Oh and the previous owner was an older white guy who bought the car to rebuild and sell it, but I didn't get any info about the owners before him. Well I found a big hoop earring and a hair pick under the seat.

More pics! The enhanced stock look is perfect, I wanna see how the extra curves on that thing look from the back and sides! Oh, and the other spoiler on that page, the one on the burgundy pre-89, is so awesomely bad. :rofl:

As much as I'd love to see someone make an I6 powerhouse, that thing looks and sounds gorgeous. Hell I'm just happy to see toyota/lexus make something with some serious kick. Long live the sportscar age!

When you won't break your stride to pick up a quarter, but if you see a stray washer, it's yours.
