    Project "so I have this widebody..."

    The original wheels came from a company called Gotti. http://www.gbsalpine.com/wheel/gotti/eng.html Unfortunately they are no longer in production. :icon_frow

    Project "so I have this widebody..."

    AFAK: The Wektor had a different IC and the HKS "3000" pipe with custom IC piping.

    The 7M wasn't stock in any of those cars. The BM1 produced 302 PS, the Wektor Competition even hab 470 PS with NOS.

    Project "so I have this widebody..."

    Yes he is. :D No problem. I thought I'll let you know because these widebody kits are pretty rare even here in Germany. It's definitely worth rebuilding the car. There was another company which used the same kit, Wektor. You can see this one here: As you can see this one even...

    Project "so I have this widebody..."

    Hello from Germany! Your widebody looks a lot like those built by a german tuning company called b+m. A lot of modification on the front though. You can see how the original b+m 1 kit looked like here: Thought this might be interesting to you.

    Why 0-30 Oil?

    I personally don't like those translators because most of the time you have to guess what it means. :biglaugh: And jdub said he has a german wife, so he can give you a translation. Besides: Why should I put some effort in doing a translation if all you get here is being insulted when...

    Why 0-30 Oil?

    Btw. No need to be offensive, I just said that we don't use a w30 oil, because it is to thin at high temps for our driving conditions. German winters are cold, but 10w is fine. I never ever heard of any damage caused by running 10w here. And it's the most common oil for any kind of car...

    Why 0-30 Oil?

    You want a scan of my german user's manual? Apart from that: Here's a link to oil suggestions by Motul: http://www.motul.de/oelberater/auto/details.php?id_hersteller=45&id_kfz=2200 It's german only, sorry, but that won't be any problem for you I guess. :biglaugh: And here is a warning from...

    Why 0-30 Oil?

    Toyota suggests to use 10w40 here, so I definitely would not use a 0w30 Oil. 0w30 has a lowered HTHS viscosity and that's dangerous for old engines, because they are not build for it. Several oil manufacturers here warn you not to use it for old engines. Why should they lie? I really don't...

    Why 0-30 Oil?

    I'm not sure if that is interesting to you but in Germany we use 10w60 or 5w50 synthetic oil. Nobody would actually consider using a w30 oil because it becomes to thin at high temps. Ok, you are only allowed to drive 80 mph maximum speed. Maybe it's ok for that. But 5 minutes on a German...

    mishimoto radiator

    I also would appreciate some statements on this radiator. :wavey: I live in germany and no shop has it, so I have to buy it in the US. Some shops here have Koyos or Fluidynes, but they cost a lot more than this one. First because of shipping costs and second because of taxes (3,5 % customs...

    "Dad can I have the keys to the car" New Ford Key technology.

    I don't know if something like that would help anything. We had a terrible accident here in Germany a week ago. 4 young boys have been killed in a brand new Golf 4 which belonged to the father of one of the guys. He bought the car that day and gave the keys to his 19 year old son to drive...

    MKIII VS Audi Quattro 700ps

    That's Normen's car. He's a member of our german forum. You mean because he started so late? It's because of the regulations. He has to start a certain amount of time later than the supra, because his car has more power. They want to make it more interesting for the audience.
