Dude, just pull the engine this weekend. Install new bearings, and a headgasket. That all should take about 5 hours. Right guys?

Cool, what are you going to go with as far as EMS? Those are bone stock CT26's right? You could always upgrade the CT's compressor wheels if you get bored of the power.

Miguel, I'm not sure if you're for Vegas today or tomorrow but have fun and be safe. I'm at a point where I'm happy with my car. No leaks, runs good, good small turbo... just need to keep dialing in the mapecu. My old ass laptop to run mapecu doesn't last but 45minutes before running out of...

Yeah, this car has been there for a while now. Plus it's just a regular general repair shop.

BTW, there's this '89+ White package supra over on Eckhert Rd. that's been there for well over a year. I stopped to talked to the shop about it and apparently the owner of the car has several MKIII's. He's known to be a fanatic of MKIII's. The mechanic there couldn't tell me more about it and...

Back in the day(15yrs ago) my friend had a 1996 LT4 Corvette Grand Sport. He and I ran the exact same trap speed in the 1/4mile suggesting we had very similar power to weight ratio. He was running 12.20's to my best of 12.89 back then too. From a roll if we hit it at the same time he'd pull...

Power steering pressure line done. Today after work I stopped by Taylor Made Hoses and showed them the length I wanted. I mocked up my old banjo bolts I cut up with a BS hose I had on there and took it up there. They said they could use my banjo bolt assemblies I had and they'd braze some...

So how did you install the new one? Or how did you re-crimp new hoses on the ends of the existing one?

Yeah, steering pressure hose was no good. Had pinholes all over. Evan I don't know how you snaked it out, but I couldn't for the life of me. I ended up just cutting the damn thing in half and removed it. I'm going to have Taylor Made Hoses make me one very similar to Driftmotion's steering...

I was going to get on that pressure line today, but I had to do my rear brakes on the Protégé. I went by my friends shop so he can turn my rotors, but he didn't have time to do it. He had a lot of work on his hands and was a bit cranky, so I just slapped on the new pads without machining the...

Eagles - One of these nights. I had that song in my head all day long. I'm old. I did take a look at that pressure line today to see how to take it off. It doesn't look hard at all. I'll be tackling it sometime this week. Hopefully.

You NW guys/gals are having too much fun. Ya'll need to tone that shit down. Makes me depressed.

His sig does say 420whp @ 12psi, so I guess that's it for now. I will add that's pretty damn good for such low boost. That's nothing to scoff at. I'd like to run low 400's to the wheels.

Now I understand about the auto bid to your max bid thingy works. I thought they were just helping the seller boost his price. An excellent presentation, and an unmolested sports car will bring top dollar.

It doesn't give the full name, but it does show the first and last character of the bidder. The same bidder bumped up the price of the car a few grand. That's sketchy to me. And yeah, there are three guys bidding that are raising their own bid the inflate the price of the car.

FIRE IN ENGINE BAY!!! This morning I was out doing some street tuning with the mapecu. I pulled over to make some adjustments to the fuel table and notice a bit of smoke coming from under the hood. I jumped out and lifted the hood up to discover I had a small fire going on the turbo...

I was looking at the bidding history and noticed one bidder took it from $2300 to $5300 all in one day. Nobody else was bidding against him during that time. Hmmm...

You know I'm just teasing. Congratulations on the marriage. Welcome to the club. So what days are you "allowed" to come out and play?
