So, picked up a Blitz Nur Spec as mentioned above... So far, I love this thing. Came with two things my RSR didn't have: a built in resonator and a silencer. Sooooooo much more tolerable now, I can drive through neighborhoods without feeling guilty about doing it at 3am. I think I may still...

Hmm... so basically if I were to ever get serious about trying to hit that speed at the salt flats I'd wanna put as tall a tire as would fit, to keep driveshaft rpms down as much as possible? This is more of a pipe dream than anything, but I'd rather do my homework on such a subject considering...

Question, does it have to be OUR personal Supras? If not, here's: 4: burning out.......... If this is acceptable, it's Tyler Conlin (TKMK3) and some really fast Mk2 at SILV2008. :)

It's a few years old (unfortunately sold this one, great car, I miss her), but it should be suitable for #3. :)

Don't think 800 would be enough for a Mk3? I'm by no means an expert, but I can't imagine it would take much more than that... Or are you referring to driveshaft strength?

I'll look into that, thanks for all the input guys! :)

Hypothetically speaking, this motor will see something between 600-800hp, I live about 3 hours from Bonneville and would like to get a Mk3 to 180 (200?) mph someday, so critical speed is a bit of a concern. There's nothing particularly wrong with my driveshaft, but if it's gonna net me better...

With your throttle needing to be open in order for it to idle, it could be that your ISCV is stuck, as mine was. Easy cheap fix too, just adjust the screw to the left of the throttle body to crack open the throttle just enough. Might raise your idle a bit (mine sits around 900-1000 most of the...

Googling "PMoI" returns a lot about something called the People's Mujahedin of Iran... I don't think that has anything to with driveshafts, just a hunch. Explain perhaps? As for strength, the aluminum and cf ones are sold by Titan, I would think they'd be plenty strong enough for my goals.

Hey guys, doesn't seem like this question has been asked yet, but I'm wondering what the benefit might be of a lighter driveshaft? In my tired overworked mind, my logic seems to point toward a similar idea of a lightened flywheel, i.e. better response, less rotational mass, etc... HPF sells a...

Part of being in Utah I'd imagine man. Not much different up here in Wyoming either. Last car show around here I was gonna put mine in, but had a hard time justifying spending $35 on a t-shirt and a parking spot for 5 hours. After browsing the show and seeing nothing but the same old domestics...

Is IJ really the Stig?

Generic 70's Toyota wheel I'd say. I had a full set of them on my 79 Celica. Check some junkyards. :)

Have a set of 555R's on it now, but they're show. Kinda just wanna replace them with a set of 555's to match the front. Same tire, stiffer sidewall from what I understand. Not really a fan of the bubbly feeling of DR's on the highway... :)

I miss my 7m for the sound, but I don't miss the headaches it gave me. Was a great motor to drive though, that sound is undeniably sexy. The 1j though, has served me much better as a DD motor, stock bottom end, same type of mods as the 7m (downpipe/exhaust), with cams and a bit of head porting...

Tyler, mind driving my car a few passes down the track at SILV this year? I'd like to see what it can really do. I'm by no means a bad driver, but have no experience on a track...

It was sarcasm man... I've been following that series since it first came out back on the original PSX. By the time GT3 came out I'd had more miles in on that game than my real life car! :p Thing is now, I live in a small place... do I prop the bed up against the wall to make room for one of...

Those guys are still around? Wonder if people still make fun of them like they used to?

If by 'modification' you mean taking a pair of snips or probably even scissors to cut out the outer part of the 'ring' where the screws go, then yes, they need a bit of modification. Seriously though, it's a piece of cake to put in the 501's. If you're interested in sound quality though, I'd...

Nissan has a VERY nice looking black cherry paint on some of their newer cars, would suit my car quite well. :)
