Hmm, "Jack Stands". I think you may have just given me the proper name for the widebody project. :rofl: Flight Doc, keep your patience, and set aside a few bucks now and then, and get to your Mk3 when you can in the future. Sometimes, the time just isn't right for a particular car in our lives...

Should be grateful we still live in a country that bothers to find random jurors. For now anyway. ;) That said, my girlfriend was on a panel a few months ago, she seemed to enjoy it if not for the cramped conditions of the jurors box.

Haha, you must be new around here. :rofl: Nice looking gun Mike, I've heard nothing but good things about Kimbers from what little I've heard about them. Hope ya get some time to enjoy it!

What do you mean that molds were out of the question? Either way, I love suspension seats... most of the equipment I've been around has them. Quite comfy.

Well that was quick, didn't you just buy the Golf a few months back? Anyhow, how's the weather up there? Been around -20° the past couple weeks, and for the first time in a few years, we've gotten some pretty serious snow for the area...

Ugh... sorry to hear of your misfortune man. Consider an Autolock, or Brakelock (whatever they call them), I have a couple, and while I'm sure they *can* be bypassed, I can't imagine your typical joyrider would have the proper equipment to deal with something like that. I can tell you from...

Looks good man. So, when can we expect a supercharger and some tires?

Haha, I knew what you were getting at. For what it's worth, my porting job was worth about 40hp (combined with BC264 cams) over a stock head on stock turbos. I can't WAIT to see what this thing does with a proper turbo. :D

Check JDM Engine Corp's ebay feedback. IIRC it is really good. Might be thinking another company though. Shame JHot isn't around anymore though, they were in Denton briefly...

Glad to hear you got the issue figured out. :)

Well said, and I agree. HPF does some terribly awesome things to the M3 platform... Basically the biggest attraction to the NSX for me is the mid engined platform (new thing for me), and the fact, that well... look at the thing. It's an NSX. That's about all the argument I need. :p FD I could...

Also found on the 9th gen Corollas that I've seen. Buddy had one in his 2005, I kept threatening to steal it. :p Man, that is some GOOD customer service to hear about!

Hang in there man, mine was down for ~13 months while I saved up for and did the 1j swap. ;)

Much as you might not want to hear it, I have yet to sit in a more comfortable seat than the stock Mk3 seats... Hmm, actually, the seats from the FR-S are a close second, now that I think about it. Might be able to find a set for cheap too, given how many of those are destined for track use...

I love how people say things are stock. My ass. Stock they're quick. Stock they're not monsters like that... And as for "cold weather", you can bite me haha. It's been like -20° for most of the past few weeks. Colder even, depending on where you're coming from around here...

Myself, I bought a SPEC twin disc. Set me back about $1600 or so, but I know it will last a lot longer than 3 clutches that *might* hold the power I'll be putting out, and I don't have to do two extra clutch jobs. From experience with a friend's 500+whp setup, just do it right the first time...

Dustin was allowed to go out and play? :rofl: Seriously though, that Celica is a lot lighter than a Supra, so 350hp goes a long way...

Sounds like something is trying to get out... and is knocking until you let it out. :p Seriously though, does the sound go away after driving for a bit? Might be an exhaust leak. Might however be something smacking around inside the engine.

You want dependability, extra oomph, and good engineering, but still want to keep it in the family? 1UZ my friend. :) Aftermarket isn't exactly there, but if you're looking (and able) to swap an engine that didn't belong in this chassis, that shouldn't stop ya. ;)

Jay, remember the basics. You want air to flow in and out as fast as possible, correct? Have you ported your head lately? ;) Best money I've spent in laying ground work for making this a fast car...
