Agreed with everything above. Keep the resonator, maybe change out the muffler. Or, buy the RSR setup. You won't get louder without running open downpipe. Still my favorite exhaust for day-to-day driving, but it suuuuuuuuucks for road trips when you don't have the silencer. On a 7m, it is loud...

You know... even though it is in a ~3800 lb car (LS400) with an auto behind it, I find that the 1uz is a great engine. Good response, and plenty of power for only being a 4.0L. Would be a lot of fun with a manual behind it... Quite a bit less actually. the 1uz is right around the 370-380 lb...

Heh, for what it is worth, I think I have something like 7TB worth of space on my computer... when storage space is as cheap as it is, a folder of pictures like this to make yourself feel better about your own car is WELL worth the space. ;) You know... You would think that between the Aztec...

SO... MUCH... CORN... :rofl: Nice videos there at the end. Is it appropriate to say, "road's closed pizza boy" in your third video? :p

Looks familiar... Helps if you post it like this though: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IXAz_8geai4&feature=plcp That opening song... I haven't heard that since Midnight Club 3 man. Good memories!

Well that surprised absolutely nobody sitting behind this monitor. :p Silly VW's, going fast is for the big boys. Still love the VR6 exhaust note though...

Dude... that's when you get to make shit up and see how gullible they are. VERY fun game. ::evil2:: Heh, maybe with slicks and a cliff... not saying it is especially hard to get them there, but what factory is he talking about? :rofl: I can just see the Colonel Sanders looking guy from the...

So, about as smooth and balanced as a sober man on a cruise ship? :p

8 liter inline 6 turbo diesel? How could that be underpowered? Unless it isn't really meant for a passenger vehicle or light duty pickup...

Unless you happen to need a shell, and this one is very much on the VERY clean side... I would walk away from this one.

Chris, your oil "problem" is merely the design of the 7m. I would highly suggest that you spend some time reading through the oils and lubrication sub-forum on here, you will learn a LOT about how these cars were made/operate. ;)

Sounds like you could stand to learn a lot from IJ. He has been down the path you're contemplating. Also, if you have the funds, I would suggest giving Titan Motorsports a call. IIRC, they can still get fresh 2j blocks/heads, etc.

Buy a ZZ Celica... trying to be cheap with a Supra is kinda like pissing in the wind man. Especially if you start modifying the car much...

Curious what that feels like... I imagine something like riding a hardtail Harley on a bumpy road?

Hey, can't ever go wrong by asking, right? :p You know, for the price of a GT-R, you could build a badass track worthy Mk3, and a badass track worthy LS3 powered Miata. Could probably afford the truck and trailer to take them to the track too... wish I had that problem to worry about haha. :)

Worst case scenario, do you have anywhere you can stash the car for now? Failing that, a tow can't be too expensive, I think the distance between NC and NJ is less than the width of I-80's stretch through Wyoming... What hvyman says is right though. If you're overheating, chances are good you...

That is a sign to walk away if I ever saw one... this coming from a guy who will have his suspension up for sale in a couple months. :p

You got it, I love the way that thing looks... I've seen freight trains that looked more delicate. :p You would have to do at least 6.0+ liters of diesel power to have many Americans willing to try one out. No worries man. :) I took it to mean as between you and I... IJ is someone completely...

I'm with Poodles here, after reading through more or less the entire oils/lubricants section... Aren't most products in that aisle? :p

I could be mistaken, but isn't Driftmotion also in LA somewhere? I hear that Aaron guy knows a thing or two about these cars... ;)
