Gotta start somewhere man. ;) I put on the Nitto NT05's, cleaned up the engine bay of the dust with a rag, washed the windows off with my secret "water bottle and a rag" technique. Then I drove to my parents house to pick up the video camera they have, and found out that the gas station by...

I'm still in at the $350 price Noel. Paypal ready as (almost) always.

Aerocatch hood pins. Problem solved. :)

Careful with VHT Niteshade... CLEAN whatever it is you're tinting, as best as you possibly can. If you don't, the result looks like crap. Also, I'd recommend only using ONE coat of it. Two coats will likely make the tail lights next to useless, and unless you like getting rear ended, I wouldn't...

Tires are on and ready, boost controller is here (had it overnighted from Japan Flyin' Miata when we couldn't find one like we thought we would... ...and then my boss gave me the news. His car won't fit on his 16' trailer, as it's too long. Front bumper hits the front rail, and the rear tires...

Looks like it was a lot of fun, I only wish we had sections of unrestricted highways... I know I could make it to Vegas in 4.5 hours if left alone by the highway patrol. Question for you though, are trucks (lorries?) restricted from the left most lanes on the autobahns?

That works for a few years, but my advice? Start saving some of your money for the house too. No sense in having a badass car if you have to park it on the street, right? I know it probably doesn't sound all that exciting, but I was 27 (28? I forget) when I bought my first house. Finding out...

No kidding... that's one thing I'm finding isn't so bad about being paid on salary. At least I don't get my hopes up for a bigger paycheck if I work a long week. :p

Cool cool, well congrats on getting married man, and enjoy the tires. :)

Not bad, always did like the C5/C6 cars... good to see people use them like they're meant to be used where you live. Where I live, you see 20+ Vettes any given day if the weather is decent, but I think I've seen ONE car ever turn a wheel in any sort of anger...

400 cubes and you're thinking it's a 275hp engine? That seems low to me, unless the compression is at turbo-friendly levels... in which case, I think the solution is more than obvious. ;) I figured it was about Supra weight too, they're all steel throughout. Granted, so are Supras, for the most...

Unfortunately, not here though. I'd have to drive at least 3 hours to even test drive one. I want to though, just to see if they got it right by my book. Even then, I have one argument for a car that handles as good, and would be as fast in a straight line, but you won't see many of them in...

Honestly, if you have a hardtop car that hasn't been molested, Dynamat shouldn't even be necessary. On my 88 (100% stock except for suspension), I had a stereo in it that you could turn the volume up loud enough to make YELLING at your passenger next to impossible. When at this volume, if you...

I think $350 would be a fair price for the panel, I paid something like $300 for the last replica that was built, and a better built one would be worth the extra $50 for me. $100 for shipping doesn't seem all that bad, but the way I do shipping at our work, a package is shipped by weight through...

Finally put a battery tie down bracket on my car. Pain in the ass that was, I seem to recall the stock one using a bolt in the hole that is just behind the headlight, and a J-hook on the back side of the battery. However, my battery tray only has a hole on the FRONT side, and the hole on the...

From what I've seen of your posting, you'd give a fully loaded testicle to just about anything that moves. :p I remember seeing a teal Mk3 pass through my town about 6 years ago, only one I've seen in person other than your car.

What side skirts did you go with, the Bomex replicas? Car looks great, I'm glad to see that wing on another color, I picked one up myself a while back, but haven't gotten to doing the widebody yet, so it's still sitting. :)

Ugh... I remember when driving to AZ, I discovered that the hose into the engine bay from the driver side hasn't been pushed on far enough. Car slowly leaked hot coolant into the cabin drip by awful drip. This was in late April, where temps are already getting into the 90's in that part of the...

I may have missed it, but is the truck a necessity for work? If not, I would suggest getting an economy car of some sort for the daily driver. 20mpg is optimistic for most trucks, depending on your driving habits/environment. However, if a truck is required, I would HIGHLY recommend an early...

It's Monaco. Pretty much any car crash ends up around a million or two...
