If you haven't bought already, I've owned both the Megans and Stance SS. The Stance have pillow ball mounts all around if I recall, but it's been about a year since I installed them, so I may be mistaken. As for performance, the Megan's were decent enough for the price, but the Stance I've...

Believe it or not, I kinda wanted to go into journalism at one point... and then I realized who my coworkers would be. :p

...you make my doodles look like dodos. :p

Jeff, I hope to be able to do justice to my 87, the quality of the build / restoration that you've done here, in my modified mission. Looking good man. :)

No worries dude, I guess a better way to describe the Porsche was a car made by Porsche engineers, making the best of what they could from the shared parts bin of the VW group. :p As for the C5, they did indeed move the transmission to the back. Sits right between the driver/passenger and the...

The cars themselves were really, REALLY well built, you are correct. They'll hold up to quite a bit of abuse before calling it quits. However, you've clearly maintained your car. My point was that a LOT of the cheaper Supras on the market (and even some of the more pricey ones for that matter)...

Interesting, makes me think my car *might* have a chance against my friend's old GSXR1100... but it did dyno 220 at the wheel, so I'm not holding my breath. :p Also, who messes with a car equipped with a parachute? :rofl:

I'm not terribly familiar with the Holset turbos, but if memory serves me, the "R" in Garrett turbo part numbers designates a ball bearing CHRA, correct? If so, I would think that GT35 would be a nice setup for mid range power, quick spool, and easily capable of 450whp. Hopefully some more...

Two things: -Is that the sound of your tires rubbing on occasion? -Also, the honking thing when you pass someone, was that just a show of appreciation? Not too familiar with that custom where I'm from. Then again, where I'm from, people don't usually drive courteously, much like that turd in...

Indeed IJ had done one. Worked great for lower power levels, but sizing was an issue for higher power, according to him. Despite suggestions to the contrary, given the environment that I'll be using the car in (not ideal to me, but I'll take what I can get), we're going to try and set up an air...

High five to you man! You're literally clipping at the time I manage to run (albeit the only time I got to run it on a track) with around 320whp... Well done. Hit 12's out of a 7m NA and I'll mail you a cookie. :D

I'm not aware of any such thing... if you have any more info though, I am DEFINITELY interested though. About the closest thing I can think of is either Bonneville (Speed Week) or Nevada's Golden State Rally. Not sure of anything in Wyoming or near it unfortunately... The answer is always Miata...

When did Firebird close? That was the one out in the northwest valley, right? Not the one down by Allwhitetuke?

Sorry I didn't see this post sooner bud, I'm pretty sure those are the speakers that are currently in my car. Actually I'm pretty sure it's the component version of the 501's. And yes, they fit great. Sorry again that I didn't confirm that thought sooner. :)

Can't believe nobody's commented yet. That's a proper burnout for an NA sir, well done. :)

^VERY impressive man, very impressive. I'll just have to point this out to all the turds around here with the Subarus who think you have to have AWD to go fast. :p And to think that was done on a 275 drag radial... Think you could cut that 60' down much more with a full slick?

Sounds about right to me. I'd be in 4th over 100mph myself, with more or less the same setup (gear, tire height, rev limit), I thought you did that whole thing in 3rd! Was gonna say, I'm loving the power band! :D Any chance that white Vic that was going the other direction was a cop? :p

You know, I'm a fan of ocremix.com, they take and (as I'm sure you guessed) remix music from video games. Might seem weird, but combining my love of gaming with my love of music, it's a wonder I didn't get into the stuff a LONG time ago. I find that Keef Baker song you posted good music for...

Ad in the local paper has a guy selling 3000 rounds of it (7.62x39) for $400. Not sure of the brand, or whether it even really matters at that price. Is it just that it's a common military round that makes it so cheap? Typical rifle ammo at that same show in American calibers was typically...

Actually, you just described the C5 Corvette. The Porsche was actually rather expensively made (hence the expensive upkeep and maintenance), while still retaining some of that VW parts bin, if not much.
