    New Initial D: Stage 5

    How is that a spoiler man? Pretty much every race in the show's past was divided into a few episodes, so they tend to leave things on a high note. Good marketing though, and Naruto might be one of the worst for pulling that haha. I've read the manga though, so already knowing what is gonna...

    PSM / Playstation magazine is done...

    I see what you're getting at sir. I'm still a kid at heart though, and still find it fun to re-visit childhood memories sometimes. Having grown up has its advantages for sure, but being grown up has a place and a time. All the time, and all the places? Just wouldn't be who I am. :)

    Bring back the Kaminari 3 piece spoiler???

    Tempting as that offer is sir, I really think the Regulus is going to be the icing on the cake with my car. Now if you could get a couple replicas made for me (mostly for backup purposes), we might be able to work something out...

    Sc300 front calipers?

    I know they're a bit pricey for most, but ARZ is having a sale right now, IIRC, the basic front BBK is around $1100 or so...

    The UGLY Supra Thread...

    I shit you not, about 7 or 8 years ago (sometime in 2004-2005), I saw one of these, with the Mk4 front and rear molded onto a Mk3 body. This one was white, in Arizona, and while it looked a bit odd... it seemed nicely done.

    Wanted to share this

    DT??? Never let your dreams outpace your patience to save money for them. ;)

    AEM EMS installed in factory location *PICS*

    Try using the old 7m ECU brackets. They swap right over, and you can mount your 1j ecu in exactly the same position as the 7m ECU. That's the bright idea I came up with when trying to mount my stock ECU, had a bit of a laugh when I realized it really was that simple. :) To the OP, nice stuffing...

    Mystery cam bolt stripped! SOLVED

    Note to self: keep the anti-lag pressure to a minimum. Two-step will have the same effect, correct? Honestly don't know which the AEM is equipped with...

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Remember, as per the TSRM, that bolt needs to be tightened with the car's weight on the suspension. I guess this was a cheap way of giving the Tacomas a minor lift, loosen those bolts, lift truck off the ground, tighten bolt, and align. Of course, I didn't bother to read that part of the TSRM...

    Diesel trucks

    Never said it wasn't impressive, but I like being able to turn too... Perhaps it's all the douchebags with white sunglasses around here that drive them and think they're badass, I dunno. If you want to surprise me, outrun me in a minivan or something. A truck that comes stock with twice the...

    What would your 1st hand gun be?

    Much like I told the girlfriend, take away the guns, people will still find means to act on crazy impulses. Pipe bombs are silly amounts of easy, and if strategically placed/used, one could cause a lot more of a death toll than what happened this week...

    1976 celica liftback GT with a VW 1.9 diesel TDI swap.

    Certainly not much more than a comparable Supra engine though... Well, I guess they could be actually. I don't know that I've spent more than $100 maintaining my car in the past year if I'm honest. Not that I drive all that much compared to many people out there though.

    Shipping items internationally

    I suppose the value of an item is only what the buyer deems it worthy, right? Most people that aren't "car" people would think I was nuts for what I've spent on my room full of go-fast bits. Not until they get a ride do they have any sense of appreciation for it. I can't say I've seen an "app"...

    PSM / Playstation magazine is done...

    Heh, seems we are in the same boat sir. At least NP knew they were going down. Apparently the PTOM guys found out the day they were shipping the last issue, that it was the LAST issue, according to what Roger (last/former EIC) told me. Kinda sad to see all these publications go. You really...

    What would your 1st hand gun be?

    Like I told my girlfriend last night, you can't legislate crazy away. If someone intends to do something like this, gun control laws aren't going to stop them. I sincerely doubt it would even be a hindrance. If they take away gun rights from law abiding citizens, the people that will still get...

    I No Longer Shop At Autozone

    Is that you Bender? :rofl: You don't get cold weather silly... :p Couldn't have said it better myself. I'll admit, I didn't notice the part about the guy doing it for his coworker's sake, BUT... like Jordan here points out, the guy probably wasn't a real threat. Guns are usually a weapon of...

    Picture of the Day!

    Nice map you posted there Kelson, and thanks for the advice. If we were able to attend, you can bet money that we'd be spending as much time as possible there. Not like we get to do this sort of thing often when you live in what some would consider a ways away from BFE.

    Cheating on the supra

    Very nice, definitely looks like a hoot. A local guy has an S12 with a similar setup if I remember correctly. As for that Corolla, if it's an E7x car, you're going to have a hell of a fun time fitting a 7m in there. I had mine at the same time I had my 88 Supra, did some measuring, and the...

    1976 celica liftback GT with a VW 1.9 diesel TDI swap.

    Such is to be expected of Japanese cars (any cars?) from that era. Hence why rust free Z's are so hard to find and tend to command healthy prices. First gen Celicas are in this same boat of desirable, yet hard to find in good condition. Also, while a diesel may not be my cup of tea (I like my...
