    How often are you underestimated?

    This Saturday night I was out playing foosball with a friend and getting my ass kicked so we moved on to check out the races. We meet up with some friends and move to one of the spots where you can hang out for hours without getting hassled. Now there is a beautiful blue 280z (if I can find...

    Targa on or off?

    I take mine off often and if I'm at work I just leave it off all day. Depending on if I stop somewhere or the area I'll just set the top on and put the windows up. When at home I just leave the top off and put it in the garage. targa >hardtop I don't care how much better a hard top handles...

    How many MPG do you get on your supra?

    Good gas mileage = no power I get around 12-15mpg and have fun with it. If I can keep my foot out of the throttle and on the highway I can see around 20mph but that never happens.

    It feels like my left rear tire is dragging

    Something could be catching up in the rear end too. There are tons of things it could be. Does it make any noises or do you get any vibrations?

    Bad day

    Next time don't run into a pile of ice and snow ;) But shit happens and sorry you have to deal with it in that weather. I dont even want to think about how miserable that has to be. Good luck and you can work on the supra another day. Its not like you would want to drive the supra in bad...

    Holy Crap .... 4.30's are lots of fun!

    Using mkiv wheels on the stock twins I was using Fuzions 275/45/17 and they were great tires. They were outstanding in the rain. I would purchase them again if I was still on the same set up. Week ago I was using some decent tires 255/40/17 and they didn't hook worth a shit. I forget the...

    Wide band kits

    Dave I cannot believe you don't have a wideband in your car yet :nono: I have the m-500 and went with that over the 300 because of the datalogging capabilities. I would have gotten the m300 if i was using emanage or map ecu because you can datalog the a/f signal though them. I bet you'll be...

    Holy Crap .... 4.30's are lots of fun!

    best suggestion so far. I would roast my tires into 3rd gear. I put some real tires on it and I can dump the clutch at 5500rpms and dead hook :evil2:

    Pix of my new Apartment.

    depends on your area. $650 a month is pretty cheap for the area I'm in for a 2 bed apartment. Renting serves its purpose. Not everyone is ready to handle the responsibility of owning Congratulations on the place. Have fun with it

    Checking timing

    I used the green rpm wire which is used when dynoing. Worked out fine for me and my timing seemed to be on par :)

    Lookie What I found....

    That is my thoughts as well. I even wonder what the difference in how well the 2j one flows vs. the 7m one. I bet it isn't worth the hassle. At least it'll clean up the bay.
