Yeah, I hear ya man, gotta get something fitting for what you do. If not a Mazda3 hatch, what about something like a Volvo XC90? Isn't that essentially the replacement for the V70? Would recommend the Dodge Magnum, but I'm a bit leery on Chrysler products, although that one has a good bit of...

What about wiring an ipod directly into the stock deck somehow, or even the speakers themselves? I've seen that done a couple times. Not necessarily pretty, but should work alright for now. :)

Fuck me in the beard Ian... How in the world did I not realize that? :rofl:

We do have a section for parts reviews. How much info is in it, I do not know. Might be a good place to start though...

If you want loud and aggressive (not to mention light), you can't get much better than RS-R... but they only came in a 3" far as I know. Still, sounds about like a motorcycle when paired to a JZ. Honestly, if you know anyone who can make this sort of thing, I'd say have one custom made if you...

Eh, you'd be surprised... I've driven home in snow that was up to my hood level, must have fallen 10-12" that day. Felt like riding a boat on that drive home... Then again, I've never driven on pure snow tires either, they might be absolutely amazing for all I know. Given the way it snows here...

Slighty lowered is one way of putting it... if you're still on stock sized tires, you're not gonna have more than maybe 5" of clearance on the front lip. ;) Probably the best looking stance though.

Earlier 7m's with the 6m crank will rev to 67xx before cutting off the fun Don. Unfortunately, they don't really make much usable power beyond 5500-6000, depending on setup. Being a long stroke, small bore (in relation to stroke) engine, they're designed for lower rpm torque, not screaming along...

That's not terrible if that's the route you decide to go. I've just outlined how I've gotten by all these years. I'm with Luna above though, I wouldn't buy a new car other than the FRS these days... :)

Ahh, well of course it's up to you, don't let me steer your choice there. :) With GM dealers, things can be surprisingly cheap, or surprisingly expensive. I spent $11 to have a DOOR key (nothing special, pull a vin, get a code for the key cutter, cut key) made a couple years ago. You don't even...

Not a big deal, I have an entire parts car to salvage from, could probably have a local upholstery shop do one if I really needed one. Go ahead and keep it, in case you ever get the itch to pick it back up again. :) There's always a big enough hammer...

That's the second post today calling for my man card... sheesh. I *just* got it back too! :rofl:

Ahh crap... don't tell me you've never missed a shift in the Miatas before. Like using an exacto-knife for a shifter. Let's just say top of 3rd intending to go into 4th, but being 2mm off on your throw, ending up in 2nd, that's not a good thing. HELLLLLLOOOOOOO 10.5k rpms...

Beautiful picture sir, looks like a lot of fun! Oh, and just be sure to spray off your car (the wheel wells especially) a couple times a month, get that salt off there. Stuff will make your red car look like swiss cheese eventually... Well there's your problem haha... I think you'd get high...

You have rules to make people do car modification properly? What a concept! :rofl: I plan on running 315's all around, with the following offsets: Front 17x10.5 +25 Rear 17x12 +15 Going off some mental calculations, it should put things right about to the edge of the fender while allowing...

Provided I'm not in a lot of traffic and feel like I go unnoticed, I try to leave them down during the day. Mostly speaking of highway driving here, it's easy to spot a car from a LONG ways out with their lights on... I like to have a fair shot with cops since my eyes aren't what they used to be. :p

Eh, I dunno about you, but I've never lost to anything that had ONLY more torque than me. Now, the guys with way more HP *and* torque, that's a different story. :p Yeah, not too many turbo vehicles NEED to rev that far, but come on, does anyone really NEED more than 300-400hp? Probably not, but...

This happens to me about 3-4 times per winter. I have a dremel, I have a garage, I don't know WHY I haven't done it yet. Greek, do you see part # 64680 in the picture there? Right by the license plate area? I believe that might be a point of interest too... is that the cable you need to pull on?

Yes, JZ. Dylan... I'd give you a hi-five if you were closer haha. :p Andy, does BMW do that on purpose for some strange reason? Could freeze even if you DO have coolant. Say you don't have *enough* coolant... I've seen it happen. ;)

GM's can be a pain in the ass if you don't have the code to reset them, at least that's how their factory decks have been for 20-something years now. However, the more important question, if you're unemployed, couldn't that $25 spent on a junkyard deck be better used?
