Actually, the more traction you have, the ET tends to be lower, but the MPH tends to be higher, at least from what I've seen over the years. Seems backwards for sure, but look at the cars that can't hook up for crap off the line, they cross anywhere from a few to a lot higher MPH than they...

I don't believe that it's against any rules to ask for a ballpark figure, but you can't sell it in this section, has to have it's own FS thread made up. As for a ballpark price, with a 2j and r154, you say it was installed by Driftmotion? Or was that just the clutch? If it's the whole setup...

This is what I've been trying to figure out... I think my max HP was around 145-150mph. Never have I seen a CT26 peak that soon on torque. Perhaps you have NA cams?

And this is exactly why I didn't mind that my 320whp car was getting it's ass handed to it by guys making 200whp in tin cans... I got to drive mine home in comfort. ;)

All that work for a car with burgundy interior... :nono: Just kidding man, looks pretty good, you gonna paint it all at some point, or stick with the panda look? Gonna have to look up the wheel specs again, those fronts look about perfect (IMO), but the rears poke out a bit much for my taste...

Fortunately for you, the aftermarket for these cars has grown exponentially and Greddy/HKS aren't your only option like it was in the 90's. ;)

Zerocool has a cat that used to bug the shit out of you when you were eating. Ate right out of my take out container of Chinese food once, was quite amusing.

Eh, no skin off my back... yet. I had a homebrewed Xbox back in 2002/2003 sometime, was a lot of fun with all you could do with them. When the 360 came out, I wasn't the least bit impressed (they're still not as cool as what you can do with an original Xbox), so I never bought one. This sort of...

You are kidding I hope? Those lines are what feed coolant to your turbos, which is necessary on a water (and oil) cooled turbo. Take them off and you'll be buying new turbos a lot sooner than you'd like to be. ;)

Why dream when you can make reality? Time to start saving those pennies... But tiny turbos can be efficient, fast turbos sir. Why put an oversized turbo on an engine if you get your ass handed to you while you wait for it to spool up? ;)

Pick up a used RS*R if you're after loud. Made my 1j sound like a large displacement pissed off street bike. Was awesome around town, but it is tiresome if you drive more than a couple hundred miles...

I don't have a build thread, at least not yet. I figure it's going to be a while before things really get underway anyway, I'd rather get a head start then fill you guys in later. ;) As for tires, they're really not that bad if you know where to shop...

^Still not quite as cool as having a pissed off trunk monkey...

Eh, do I need to remind you guys what the Honduhhs did to all but a couple of the Supra guys at SILV 2010? It can happen, and Supra drivers aren't always known as being the best at extracting the potential of their cars...

Using old beer bottles for coolant overflow is as old as the car itself, it's pretty much mandatory on a hotrod project. :p I've always been worried that glass and 220°+ coolant might not get along so well though...

Fuck deer. That is all. Glad you're ok. And Bio, man... wow. :p

I dig it, but that might not help for some cars, given the tight spaces some filters are in. ;)

Don't you love being able to get over speed bumps and not leaving bits of your lip scraped over every parking lot transition? *high five*

I missed that the first time, watching again at home, what's that all about Albert? Surely your old lady doesn't like that too much? :p

I'd be willing to admit I've probably seen stranger. Working at Blockbuster throughout high school/early 20's and having an appreciation for b-movies and Japanese stuff in general, this sounds right up my alley... On Netflix?
