    7M--->2JZ, EquallengthT4--->DM Tubular T4, Same Trust 3" but WAY Louder?

    I don't understand what you mean about the length of the DP. But the second part is certainly true. Ever compared the sound of a Revving Straight-piped GE compared to a GTE? The difference is huge. Turbo (With the exception of while spooling up) always quiets things down.

    7M--->2JZ, EquallengthT4--->DM Tubular T4, Same Trust 3" but WAY Louder?

    Most certainly will. Go with something 26"ish long. You'll be pleased with how much depth it can add to an exhaust note. Don't pick up a cheap-o Cherry Bomb, or something of the sort. The packing can be blown out as quickly as a year.

    UTI: Universal Technical Institute

    There are a few good looking ladies. But to be blunt, the place is typically the epitome of Sausage Fest. The Ford FACT program, and the Toyota TPAT are indeed concentrated on those manufacturers vehicles and techniques. Where it comes in handy though, is how comparatively in-depth they go...

    UTI: Universal Technical Institute

    Hahahaha, I should rephrase my thoughts on the instructors. 85% of them are lazy, incompetent morons. 15% are guys you would want to have as an uncle, drinking buddy or neighbor. And are the type of people you just want to rack the brains of until they've taught you everything they know...

    UTI: Universal Technical Institute

    Sure I have. I mean, think of it this way. All of the Master Techs and Journeymen you see bouncing around Dealers, Local Shops, etc. How many of them do you think went to UTI, Lincoln Tech or Wyotech? Not many. :icon_surp Once again though, not a problem. I'm about as blunt and honest of a...

    UTI: Universal Technical Institute

    No problem bud. Just as a heads up on the post-graduation employment figures, those are old and inaccurate. And even then, were grossly overstated. I can't remember the specifics right now, but I'll just say that I'm privy to the fact that many of those jobs procured had nothing to do with...

    UTI: Universal Technical Institute

    I didn't really read past page #1. I will say this, your views of the school will really depend on how you behave, and what your expectations are. If you fuck around, or give them the opportunity to do so, they will wring you out and leave you hanging. If you endure the occasional stupidity, and...

    Supra vandalism with pics

    Holy-hell in a hand basket! I am so sorry. I agree with the others- At least it looks like the Bulkhead did it's job, and the fire didn't spread to the Engine bay. 1j and your underhood goodies should still be kosher. I also agree that someone definately had it out for you, the Sup, or both.

    2008 Supra MKIII - Project 1BYDFALT

    ...I can't believe I have never noticed this thread before. But seeing as how I just spent more time than I like to think about, reading straight through all 94 pages- I demand compensation, in the form of this thing on the road with vids as proof. <3 Great stuff dude. Keep up the great work.

    Me vs civic turbo vs civic vs mk3 supra 7mgte

    I'll give you a hint. My GE had far more work put into it than yours, and my Saturn could still walk it. Stock GTE is a mid to high 15 Second car. GE on the other hand, just can't scoot our whales quickly enough. And on the topic of you being under the legal BAC. Unless you breathalyzed...

    Limequat's 4.2l I6 Swap

    Understood. I'm hoping the most you'll have to do is (nothing) although I wouldn't be surprised if you have to modify some of the hood's framing. Keep up the good work! I've been following this intently since you started. :icon_bigg

    Limequat's 4.2l I6 Swap

    Figured out yet whether or not you'll need to cowl the hood?

    Me vs civic turbo vs civic vs mk3 supra 7mgte

    -Drunk Driving is always cool. Even better, is Drunken Racing! -Header. You have only one. All in all, I call Shenanigans. And note that you need a slap upside the head.

    Limequat's 4.2l I6 Swap

    Could just be the angles of the pictures, but in those last shots with the 4.2 resting on the Spacer/Mounts, it's looking like the top of the engine will still be interfering with the Hood. I'd just say "f" it, and mock up a stock hood with a taller Cowl.

    Hello all.

    Nothing TOO horrible. For whatever reason, my body felt as if it had bore the brunt of things. ("Severe Whiplash", Etc.) The Front Fenders were pushed to right, The hood was warped a wee bit, and forced out of alignment. Hood latch was broken. Fog lamp and Chin spoiler mountings got...

    Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

    Idle Curiosity. With the exception of the Non-Reinforced cracking issue, has anyone had any trouble running FD Rx7 OEM Wheels? As far as I can figure, the offset difference wouldn't pose much of a problem. However, I understand the Hub bore is slightly off. Would they be plug and play? Or is it...
