So I work at a local pool hall, earn a meager income, but every now and then I get to meet interesting characters. Case in Point, a weekly regular who plays the tournaments I run. I feel you should know he isn't the typical rich-white ass-wipe who thinks their car is the shit. What he is is...

Plan is to run straight NA, No turbo whatsoever. Old GTE head is junk which is why I can't put any part of the turbo motor back in. Old CT-26 was in pretty bad shape too and I wouldn't want to put it back on there anyhow. I gave it to a friend of mine. As for gauge cluster, I have both clusters...

The Pope. I have nothing against him. It's just, Dude, you punched the POPE?

Right now I'm considering my options. Whether to file a formal complaint or not? When to do it? If there is a time limit on it? I've been licensed since I was 16. I have one point on my record received about 2 years ago. I fought it in court, lost initially by declaration, then missed the...

Hey Johnathan you're in Downey... I'm a couple cities over, Cerritos. Eh, it all depends on the cop, just like them mentally profiling the drivers on the road, we profile cops and group them into general categories not all them will fit into. That same friend made an interesting point while I...

Sorry IJ. I know I talk too much. I tried writing cliff notes in the past, but they turned out to be longer than the actual paragraph.... After talking to a friend of mine who's been in a heap of more trouble with the law, he said I might be better off lodging a complaint against the officer...

Maybe, but in this case I may have a proper allegation for grounds for at least improper conduct since the officer let that little insulting tirade loose. Officers shouldn't brow-beat you just cause your parents still help you. Who knows, maybe he had just had a bad day? Still no reason to act...

Only thing I can say is cops are people. If they feel like you're easy prey, they pounce. I got all my papers together right now. I'm going in as soon as the ticket is processed and getting arraigned and setting a court date as soon as possible. My right to a fair and speedy trial. Put in my...

Yeah, I'm returning the Neon to Stock Ric. Bad judgment on my part I admit. But you can't say cops are always scrupulous, when they want to get ya, they will. At least they ain't like Long Beach PD. A friend of mine who grew up there, he's white, gets pulled over for a busted light (his were all...

Yeah CK, mom still covers my insurance. Cheaper that way. I tried a year ago getting my own insurance, the bastards at farmers wanted $300 more per 6-month than my mom was paying just for me (which was $400). Shopped around, got all-state, now for 3 cars every 6 months is a little over $1000...

Wrong. I saw him from awhile off, I had a feeling he would pull me over. And no, I didn't come tearing off the freeway at 5K rpm either. Hey, it's 2 am, easy target. I tried the whole creeping along quietly thing keeping the revs low, but when I saw him make a U-turn from the middle lane going...

I'm going with modified exhaust. I should know exactly what was the reason once I get his notes and such subpoenaed or get them through the discovery request. I'm kinda confused, since he said you've got modified exhaust and unsafe left turn real quick. Although I dunno if I can say it's OEM (on...

I achieved what I have never been able to do in the past. A great personal milestone. A cop writing me up at about 2am this morning, wrote me up on 4 violations! (I'm driving my daily driver Neon btw). Completely filled the front of the ticket. You could tell he was itching to write me up for...

Haha. Item invalid.. need more proof it was a scam?

Oooh. Makes sense. Sweet. Thanks.

I can still run a GE without having to change the wiring harness? It seems like theres a fairly large difference around the afm connector, well, we'll see when I get to putting it in, thanks.

Hey there everyone. I have a 7M-GE parts car that was involved in an accident that tore up the front and back. I want to swap the GE parts into my non-running turbo car, but am wondering if anyone here who has experience swapping (either GE-> GTE or vice versa) knows exactly what it entails. The...

I brought home the parts car yesterday. I would rate interior as 85%. Lots of minor cracks and such, but definitely not as bad as my car. Now begins the fun part... of cutting and unbolting... Anyone know what it takes to (temporarily) swap in a 7M-GE (whole engine) into a GTE Body?

Hey everyone, I like to go canyon driving from time to time and rarely see any Supras. After suffering a busted tire (sidewall bulging) after running over a signpost idiots threw onto the road (probably thought it was funny or something) I went home but my friends I went with stayed. They met a...

Tragic. Just tragic. Nothing more to say than that.
