    on a serious note

    These are all scams. If the person will not agree to meet you in person for the sale, something is fishy.

    TX2K5 video...

    From that angle, looks alot like a ST165 Celica Alltrac/GT-Four - which is a good thing, too.

    What the crap are these scratches

    One night when I was on temporary duty, some of "the guys" wanted to go out to the clubs. Well, since I knew the area, I played designated driver and showed them around town. We went to this little bikini dance joint, and the guys had a bit to drink. When everyone was done, we went outside and...

    PSP [PlayStation Portable] - Late post

    Unless Pro Duo cards go up in capacity and come down in price, I don't forsee the PSP getting more use on a trip than a Laptop, though it is fun. Then again, I don't have a Laptop. Sony needs to release machines to record UMD discs. Pffft... yeah, THAT will happen.

    What the crap are these scratches

    No kidding. Reminds me of Pulp Fiction. "Still got your Malibu?" "You know what some fucker did to it the other day?" "What?" "Fuckin' keyed it." "Oh man, that's fucked up." "Tell me about it. I had the goddamn thing in storage three years. It's out five fuckin' days --...

    well i'm on my own....finally

    "What, are your cells 8x8? Ours are 9x9 - no big deal..." I remember visiting a friend of mine at Jacksonville University in Florida. She had a roommate, and the room barely seemed big enough for ONE person. Crazy. I couldn't do it - I hate being around alot of people, even in open places. In...

    Few problems (kinda long)

    I live with these problems. I never drive my car - saving the money by not fixing the 7M and putting that cash towards the JZ swap. Turn they key - click. Nothing. Click, click, click. Nudge the car while in gear, click, and it starts. I love this damn car.

    Buying a house

    If you buy your house in a place where it LOOKS like it has potential and then 5-10 years later has grown, you can sell your house for multiples what it originally cost. My parents bought a house in Murrieta, California for about $130,000 back in 1997.The local area was just south of Lake...

    jdm engine vs usa

    Fix your car before you race. ..that's my advice. As for the JDM engine, I've heard that these are no better or worse than the US model 7M-GTE; the difference mainly being no EGR. Most people replace their thrashed US 7M with a Japanese one because either they need more than just machine...

    engine management & seasonal changes

    This is open to debate - many people get really pissed off that our ECUs learn the way they do. Some people have found their car running like crap a few weeks after a nice dyno tune session for their new piggyback because the ECU has re-learned and adjusted itself a little.

    Do it that way and you might have to settle for a salary way less than you want for your Supra[s].

    Turbo Timer Help

    You need to hook up the wires for everything. It probably has wires that go to RPM, throttle and boost pressure. How do you think the turbo timer gets it's signals to calculate out the automatic cooldown? It has to "watch" how you are driving. You need to hook everything up.

    engine management & seasonal changes

    I thought that most piggybacks just "see and modify" a signal coming to/from the ECU - in other words, the sensors in the engine bay see signals and send them to the ECU, which develops the fuel/ignition maps for that scenario and makes adjustments. When you tune the piggyback, I thought that...
