Just add water and the DR's will like to go sideways. ;) Oh, and I would think that it goes without saying you didn't take those pictures. Who would be driving? :p

Weekend update, I'll try to post pictures later. Put the rear seats and passenger seat from the LS into the Chevy. Rear seat fits almost like it was built for the Chevy, and I'm pretty sure the front seats will work nicely too. Gonna have some interesting things to sort out to make this all...

Sorry I never got to you. Running stock CT12a's, the only mods I have are the cams, head porting, 3" exhaust from the turbos back, and at the moment (while it's still warm enough anyway), a Turbosmart boost controller. I would estimate anywhere between 320 and 360whp, power comes on nice and...

Check with a member on here who goes by Devin Leblanc, he should be able to answer your question.

I'm with this guy on this one. We had a member on here a while back who did this. In the end I think he sold the car, or parted it out, I forget, but it was badass. His forum name was Syst if I remember correctly. Another benefit to this (other than the beautiful sound), the LS motors take well...

Coming from someone who hasn't had them in a while, they do come in handy on occasion, at least if you live somewhere that "streetlight" is a dirty word. ;) Uhhh... just what ARE you doing to the poor car? :naughty:

I see the problem with the seat, but the bracket appears to be able to be used on either side of the car. As for the seat, something to consider from a business perspective. It would make no sense for Corbeau to make a seat for the left side of the car AND the right side of the car. I would be...

Interesting bit about the thermo siphon... learned something new today. Would suck to burn off any coolant from the sounds of it though. Even though you may not *need* to allow for a cool down period like you needed to back in the day, it wouldn't cause problems would it? Other than burning a...

Wonder why they won't do a rebuild for you? How is it any different from you living in Japan and mailing them to the manufacturer for rebuild? Your third party idea might work, but you would have to be able to trust the person... not the best way to do business unless you REALLY know that you...

Very nice looking, quite period correct too...

You'll have to let me know what you think of it, I have one too, but it won't be in the car any time soon... they seem pretty awesome though! Err... how big is that tire in the passenger seat? At least I think it is a tire...

Read the "JZ swap for dummies" thread in the JZ section (even if you're not a dummy, lot of good info in there) for starters. Three things I've learned in the last few years of daily driving a 1j: -Replace all the gaskets and rubber parts now, when the engine is out of the car. Same goes for...

Lonnie, I have a 48 Chevy in the garage as we speak. I think I missed the boat on buying up "leftover new stock" parts. :rofl:

Do yourself a favor, don't jump on the first car you find. I would be SO much further along in my quest with my car if I had just bought my 88 back instead of the heap I have now. Agreed on the concave face on the wheels looking good Joel. However, for that much money, you would be kind of...

Hey, another Mk4 to add to the list. Looks like you have a pretty solid plan (and wife approval haha), what Nittos did you go with?

445whp in a Mazda 3 chassis? Good Lord man... my girlfriend has one (non turbo, and an auto unfortunately), and the chassis is great, but I can't imagine having to deal with that much power in a FWD application. To the OP, head work is not cheap, but if done well, is a VERY good option to...

You know, if you really want to be king of the hill (so to speak), look into more modern turbo technology. Both Comp and Garrett have some rather impressive turbos these days. Prices might be a bit more steep, but if you're looking for the best of the best, there you go. ;) The old Greddy...

You know, the trouble really is finding a combination of size, offset, and style. Very rarely do I come across a set of used wheels that fit all three requirements. If I could find a *decent* set of magnesium wheels that could even be made to work (I would be a lot more flexible on offsets and...

What is preventing you from using this passenger seat on the driver side? Is flipping the bracket 180° a possibility? If nothing else, check with THMotorsports on here, Jonathan might be able to help you out here.

I figure a 300cc bike would be enough for me if I were to ever buy one, I'm light enough. Does "slow car fast" apply to the bike world too? Kinda strange, Kawasaki doesn't mention power output or redline on that bike. Compression seems a bit low to me too, I thought most bikes were in the 12:1...
