    MKIII dyno runs at SILV 06

    Saw a black MKIV wreck after show and shine

    I left the Show and Shine at 5:30 because I had to go to work. Anyway's I'm going south down Frank Sinatra Dr. behind the Luxor and it curves kinda sharp at the end. Well I see this black MKIV going way too fast and he doesn't make it. He goes over the big ass curb, popped like 3 tires and...

    I like Exige's too, when I got my oil changed at the dealer the other day they had one in Gunmetal that was badass. :squirt-mo

    My new carbon fiber hood! 56k warning

    I’m kind of disappointed it’s not a CFX hood because the seller told me it was. Oh well, I should have asked for better pics of the underside before I bought it. I was just excited I was able to find a carbon fiber hood for the MKIII because they are almost impossible to find now. Again, you...

    My new carbon fiber hood! 56k warning

    It was just so bright outside when I took the picture it turns out greenish. But if you see it in person the carbon fiber is much more subtle. I'll be at the Supra meet if any of you guys wanna stop by. To me I'd rather have the Lotus then an MKIV. I see plenty of MKIV's in Vegas but you...

    Engine Management Suggestions

    Yeah, I would forget about the Motec system unless you plan on spending more than what most of our cars are worth. I think the data dash logging gauge is more than 3 grand alone without the ECU. They are expensive but Motec is used by many race teams for data acquisition and is practically the...

    My new carbon fiber hood! 56k warning

    Just wanted to show you guys my new hood installed. In the pictures it shows up more greenish, but in person it's more black. At some angles you can't even tell its carbon fiber, anyways it looks great in person. The guy I got it from said it was made by Duane but the underside doesn't have...

    Polishing question

    I'll take some pics and post them up after work. I've done the 3000 pipe, the stock AFM, the Apexi air filter adapter, igniter and some other pieces. I want to do the intake manifold but I want to wait until I can find another one so I can polish it and keep my car running because it's my...

    Polishing question

    I'm polishing some parts on my car and had a questions on how you guys sand parts that are difficult to get reach. I normally use a flap or nylon wheel but some parts such as on brackets the bends are too tight to get the wheels in. I tried sanding by hand but even that is really difficult on...

    I need your honest opinion!

    I'd say $4200 is not bad if it's a Turbo. If not your probably gonna be spending a big chunk of change swapping it over. I picked up a 91 Turbo with 89k miles for $4100 that was in great shape in July.
