flyinmiata.com I still say they're the cheapest fun you can have. Just have to be able to learn to live with the looks, and all the gay jokes that your friends will throw your way, because they WILL be thrown your way. I pretty much changed everyone's mind when I'd let them drive my car (stock...

OP, just how much power are you looking for here? If powerband is your main priority, why in the world are you going with a turbo that big, with an A/R of 1.00+? Now, if you're looking to approach 1000whp, don't let me stop you, but at that turbo size, you're gonna be lagging, lagging, lagging...

"I swear officer, my speedo said I was doing 0mph the ENTIRE time..." ;) Nice build you have there man, got any other pics of the car?

So, what I'm taking away from your post 3p, is that you want to increase airflow before you increase liquid flow, correct? Now, I see that graph only goes to 500cfm, what were to happen at say, 3000-4000 cfm?

I've bought from both Tire Rack and Discount Tire Direct. Would buy from either of them again in a heartbeat. Usually I'll use TR for the reviews, and DTD for the purchase, in many cases DTD is a bit cheaper overall. I bought both my winter and summer tires from DTD, paid about what I would have...

Just an fyi, vacuum is measured in in/hg, not psi. We know what you mean, but to be technically correct... ;)

What about LSx swaps into Miatas? Does that ruffle any feathers? I figure Mazda doesn't make v8's, so...

Never thought I'd see a thread started by Aloshan turn into a serious subject... :)

I've run the NT05's when it was getting a bit colder before I bit the bullet and put on the winter set, and if the temps were below 40°, I'd blow the tires off well into second gear on the Nittos, and they are a very sticky tire when warm... stick to something closer to the temp range you expect...

Talk to Albert on here, I believe they're working on something, not sure if it's quite ready just yet though.

Something to consider, be VERY careful with credit cards. These bonuses likely come from the fact that many retailers have to pay the credit card company for accepting their card. They wouldn't just offer something for nothing, or they wouldn't be in business. See that thread about "living with...

Kai, allow me to introduce you to the swap hammer: They'll make any swap possible. :D

In a tractor, you have 8 tires out back... fit some nice wide, tall slicks? Oh yeah buddy, talk about traction. It's the guys with 2000+hp cars that still resemble street cars to some extent that surprise me how they get traction. ;)

Could have sworn my 1j had different mounting points. What is the serial number stamped on your block? If it's a really early one, it's possible that you got an odd one...

They're kinda hard to hear over all the rattling and roaring as I pull away quickly... I've never had one keep up if I put in any real effort. Top end and diesel doesn't belong in the same sentence... like I said, great engines for hauling stuff, (people, equipment, freight, etc) but there's a...

Man, your 7m looks funny... is that custom? :p That "BMFSBCFTMFW" in your sig, that mean, "big mother fucking small block chevy for the mother fucking win"?

You're still able to pull codes through the wire method though, correct? If so, his scanner might not be working correctly, or possibly be plugging into different pins than it should be...

Noel, I already have a hood on order through Central Composites, but that's a one-off. Just good to have a good looking option for less than $1000, in case I ever need another hood. :)

If you're looking for a long-lived (so far anyway) and relatively sticky tire that can also handle weather, I've been fairly happy with the Continental DWS tires that I've used for the last two winters. The only complaint I have about them is a fairly soft sidewall, but this has the added...
