    pulled over 1.07 g's today in my car

    Yeah, he may not spell it correctly, but he tells it right. 1.07, Jeeeeeeeez that's awesome, sustained or not. I think a Z06 Vette pulls around .97g. How 'bout some details?

    Weird A340e shift problem

    I just checked back in on this thread, I'll try the 70 to neutral test and let you know what happens (I know buddafucco did it already, but I never noticed this quirk before so I'm also curious).

    Weird A340e shift problem

    Sounds like it might be a bad solonoid. If one or more of them is not working properly it can cause all kinds of anomalous behavior. Easy to check, easy to fix. Beware...when they go haywire, frequently the problem will be intermitent, which obviously makes it harder to pin down. Best to...

    smack talk

    Congratulations on the 1st place finishes. Too bad there wasn't a first place award for being a man, stepping up, and doing the do... you surely would have won that as well! As far as the critics, tell them to kiss your ass! Again, thanks for representing. :icon_bigg

    how to start

    If the motor is brand new (never been started or has only run for a few seconds) don't forget to disconnect power to coils and crank it over a few times to build some oil pressure and get some oil to the top of the engine. It's really important for newly fitted moving parts. I know more...

    Electric fan problems, again...

    uhhhhhh....no it's not.:nono: I have run dual electrics for 2 1/2 years with absolutely no problems. Quieter, flows better than stock fan, no parasitic power drain on engine and only runs when the electric thermostatic control senses the temp justifies the fan (adjustable). The...

    Operation Clean Engine bay

    Other than that (and the fact that it doesn't flow too well either), it's great.:sarcasm:

    Supra wins on "Pinks" reminder Show time-

    I just checked my tvo. Thank God, it was gonna be bumped for some crap my wife was recording. I guess she'll just have to find out who returned from the dead as his twin brother from one of her friends. Boo-Hoo...

    hp gains?

    I 'm not parting with my a/c or p/s but, I did notice a difference when dumped my belt driven fan and went to dual electric fans (electric thermostatic controler). I have heard some people say they had bad experiences with them, but I've never regretted it or had a problem. Great mod if you...

    What are you Paying for Premium?

    Some of you guys riding bikes might want to factor in a titanium rod in your leg, and pins in your wrists into the motorycle equation. I quit riding mine after my son told me he was "scared" everytime I rode off on my bike (GSXR 750). If you ride, you will eventually pay the piper.

    Alternator and Tire concerns

    Have the battery checked for a shorted cell too. Alternator is connected right to it... maybe a shorted cell could cause enough resistance in the wire to heat up the post??? Just a theory.

    That's horrible. I didn't know gas was that high over there. I guess the US is next. I think I'm gonna puke!

    Rant- Braided steel hose

    A thin strip of electricians tape around the very edge keeps it from fraying while you getit into the fitting. I've done it countless times and it works fine.

    L.A. California I just filled up my Supra with octane 91 Premium (high as octane as is generally available) : $3.91 per gallon at Shell near my house. $60.00 to fill. YIKES!!!:aigo: How much in your town? Are you ready for $5.00 per gallon gas? (Analists say expect it by this...

    anybody have lambo hinges?

    Well, at least he's humble, and he captured the spirit of the expression. Can't hate a guy who's sincere.
