Here in my corner of the world we have a small issue with people just outside city limits. Some of their homes/land looks like a dump, but there's not a whole lot that can be done outside of nuisance laws. Hoping to put a car-park area on the side of my house at some point when I build the 7...

Just like herpes, you'll be back sooner or later... :rofl: I keed, I keed... take care man.

I'll just leave this here... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YupwgBpiOn4

Work/family, plus the job market in AZ sucks. Well if you throw insurance into the mix, it can range WILDLY. I pay ~$600 USD for insurance for the Mk3 and Mk2 per year, but a $208 registration fee is absurd. Your toilets flush backwards, your deer have pouches on their bellies, you have 9/10...

From my experience the Eibach Pro kit may only offer a 1.5" front and 2" drop if I remember correctly, and it is FAR from being a 4x4 at that point. Hopefully someone can provide you pictures of cars on different spring setups. Smaller tires will also help, as I've seen with my brother's 64, but...

In my experience, the only time I will EVER replace a speedo cable again is if I have the dash out for some OTHER reason as well. But as all have said before, it helps to have two people here, one to spin the cable, and one to watch and see if anything's happening. As always with things like...

20 years ago, yes, but compared to a modern GT, they're not so bad. Hell, at 3820 lbs with me/tools IN the car, it's not bad at all compared to the modern equivalents, with the exception of the Vette, which is clearly more a proper sports car... The view down the side of the car *still* gets me...

http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?14479-Your-guide-to-drag-strip-success-w-pics. Read and be enlightened sir. The fact your 60' times were even that quick is surprising on tires that size. V700's are a pretty sticky tire if I remember correctly. Realistically, if you can learn to...

Holy cattle man, that's insane! Granted, I could have fun with a car that gets those kind of figures, but it wouldn't be a factory built car... and not sure how kind the UK MOT inspections are for things built in your garage... :nono: Well, you made me feel worlds better about paying $127 per...

They seem like they would mount easily enough to a cage's main hoop from what I've seen, but from that angle, how well would the thing be able to see outside the window?

Water/methanol injection cools down EGT's and intake temperatures as well, but not sure it has any measurable or appreciable effects on how fast a turbo spools up...

Nah, I think its just the weather in the UK. Does funny things to car engineering. :p

They certainly were ahead of their time. Between the Mk3, Mk4, and FD Rx7, all three of those cars easily look like they could have been put to market as a model year 10 years further than they were. I love how unique my car is. Seriously, to my knowledge, I am the only running/driving Mk3...

That in a sense could be even worse, taxes based on book value? Price on some cars is only likely to go up in that case... I believe here in WY, we pay based on factory MSRP for the car. My 89 is listed at something like 27k for original MSRP, my girlfriend's Mazda3 is only like $90 this year...

Hahaha, that's sig material right there... Aww man, you tempted the gremlins... never tempt the gremlins. :nono:

I still want one of those... you're fixed on one angle with those, correct? Couldn't hurt to have one pointing out the back if you ask me...

You have a girlfriend...? Those tires look so much larger than they actually are, I love that about small cars. Kinda gives away your secret though, if people know what to look for in a car...

http://dahnautomotive.com/ I know Wes has had a swap like this in mind for one of his crawlers, and I KNOW he's more than capable of a conversion like this. Too bad his website is kinda sparse, he's probably a bit busy with work in general. Either way, give him a call, it's worth a shot. :)

Good point. Fortunately, I was always smart enough to be aware of where I was in relation to people's mirrors. I get uneasy in ANY car if I can't see their eyes in *their* mirror, I change position, traffic-wise. Have nearly been run off the road in the Supra at least twice when cruising by...

They also make it a pain to put long objects into your interior, although the cage doesn't help in that respect either. :p
