    Vented hood

    Wow, looks nice! Most people just talk about how much they like it and wish for someone to make one, but you've actually gone and done it.

    breaking in period?

    I've always wondered, after the initial hard break in, when the rings are seated and all, do you still need to take it easy for a couple hundred miles? Logic says no, but are there other factors to watch out for?

    New pictures of my old car.

    I'm not the biggest fan of blue but this is reeeaaallllll nice. I never noticed the clear lights all the way around before, it complements the color well!

    Buying a cheap AW11 MR2 for fun

    LOL at "super charger" decal. A dude I used to work with had one and it seemed fun. He paid like $800 for it too!

    Do targa tops really seal?

    Both of mine have sealed just fine =\ Both original seals as far as I can tell too. I took them off and put them back on a LOT too.

    Purpose Built Police Car

    Looks like it's pretty good from the specs. I wonder how it matches up against existing cars...

    Hood locks

    ^That would really concern me... Aerocatches on a MKIII. Unfortunately, they're not closed but you can see them =\

    17" or 18" Wheels ?

    I like 17s. The smaller wheels are lighter, and rubber is cheaper =) Plus big ones look kind of goofy if they're oversized... the only real problem you'll run into with smaller wheels is not enough space for brake upgrades.

    ct26-t3/t4 w/ ext. wga flange?

    That looks like the MR2 one, I dunno if it'll work but I've seen it on the 'bay. There's another one frequently listed for sale that is supposed to fit the MKIII though =\

    Thick-wall silicone vac hose

    +1 for hose techniques, it's actual good silicone hose =) A lot of the cheap silicone hose isn't that good, I had a length of ebay hose that somehow tore itself vibrating against the sides of the AFM O_o

    7MGE running on 7MGTE electronics NO TURBO

    Don't get the cheapest Harbor Freight engine stand (It was like $30), it won't hold a 7M without bending like 20 degrees downward =( The one that's $10 more can probably hold it though, my friend's got one and it's a lot sturdier.

    what i made today

    Cool! If you kind of make yourself forget that you know it says MKII it looks sort of like alien writing with triangular symbols too. I dunno, that's just what my roommate said.

    Is it really too much to ask for shops to do things properly???

    =( This is why I'm really, really nervous whenever other people touch my car. Sorry to hear...

    after market antenna install

    Mine was broken so I ordered one that looks almost identical to yours. Haven't installed it yet, but it looks like it won't look too bad =]

    "Illegal Exhaust" In Virginia

    Just bad luck, I don't think cops pick on everyone with an exhaust that doesn't sound stock. They wouldn't have time to do anything else!

    Shipping companies?

    That's how I'd do it if I had the time/money =]

    Myrtel Beach Supra Owners?

    I have some parts, but I'm in Charlotte. I don't know if they'll have any 7M parts, but if you want to visit a seriously cool shop check out NSI in Wilmington (National Speed Inc)

    2010 mustang revealed

    The newer F-bodies aren't even that bad on the road course either, I've seen a lot better performance out of them than MKIIIs, that's for sure... And the 03/04 Cobras are simply beasts. Are they bigger and heavier than miatas or S2000s? Yes, but that doesn't mean they automatically suck at...

    Random...i love my integra!

    They are pretty high in price (probably because of their popularity) but I wouldn't mind having one to DD either. I think the GSRs even have decent horsepower (180ish?) so it wouldn't be terribly slow or anything either!
