Hey all, I wanted to know where the powerband is on you're cars. My n/a is auto and bone stock, but it seems like it's powerband is in the higher rpms. I get great acceleration off of the line, but the RPM's fall off a little if I'm not WOT. Here's how it works for me: Say I'm at half throttle...

I have to ask this... what good is a car if you can't drive it anywhere? I mean, you could have a 1400hp car on the street, but you'd have to slap a tow hitch on it and use it like a truck to haul cargo :biglaugh:

Yeah, just like the lady who stole a u-haul... Sorry for going OT The car could look decent if it was done using stock mk4 parts, and also done professionally. No offense to the owner of the car, but it looks like something me and my friends could do in our backyard ::toothless::

IJ: Do-Luck RXB Ablug (not in an a70, but gives the general idea of how it works) JIC lower arm bar

So what you're saying is that the JIC lower arm bar and Abflug bars would do jack squat aside from lighten my wallet? This is true with the money and weight parts. For me though, the comfort of having no/reduced noodle effect far outweighs the added weight. There's nothing better than...

So basically the best thing to reduce the targa effect is either a targa brace or an underside x brace tying the subframes together?

No no no, not dead/broken Supras, that's bad! Yes, it will be my first big meet, that's what I was implying when I said "supra heaven" :D

I can't wait for the meet this year, I'll probably be thinking that I've died and gone to Supra heaven :biglaugh:

The only places online I've ever seen them are on Nengun and RHDJapan (both located in Japan). I've not seen a place in the US that sells it. Links: http://www.nengun.com/do-luck/rear-cross-bar http://www.rhdjapan.com/jdm-low/Do-Luck-Rear-Cross-Bar-Toyota-55916

Thanks for the input guys. Would using a combination of the rxb and the lower arm bar have more effect on the wet noodle effect? I know that a weezl wing would be best, but I personally would like to have my top completely open.

I have a question about the product for anyone who knows. Would it help to eliminate the "wet noodle" effect from having the targa off while driving? I realize that it's meant to bolt to the subframes (separately) and should firm the handling, but is the product really worth it? Anyone who...

Yeah, but go over a bump and hit it on something... CF doesn't bend like plastic would

Last time I checked, Rich (suprarich) from SIP in our vendor section had it listed on his site

Um... Recaro?

Most threads usually do

The only thing funnier than reading someone calling another person a wanker is to hear it in person... especially if the person saying it is from Oz or the UK :biglaugh:

Too cold out. Salt doesn't operate effectively under a certain temperature

Car came with steelies and that's what I got right now. Haven't washed the car since before winter cuz it's been too damned cold out. I tried turning my hose on the other day and got nothing. Unscrewed the nozzle and there was ice inside. I could try taking a piss on it, I'm pretty sure THAT...

Lol at the "beater for the winter" remark. I drive my Supra year round, rain, shine, or snow/ice. Just have the spare tire and some sandbags in the back and traction is less difficult to get

rear sump oil pan and pickup is around $530 from Toyota, just so you know...
