When you're walking, you're not 15' x 6' x 4' and 80 decibels are you? I pay attention to my own driving (hence why it was a "nearly" situation), but on a bike, you're a much smaller target, and people generally just don't care what is in the lane next to them before changing over. :nono:

My old lady bought me a nice book about the complete history of the Celica and Supra, and it even had a heavy focus on motorsports (mostly rally and road race stuff, not so much on the drag racing, drifting, or anything else), but it completely missed this one. Good info!

Looks like a filter relocation piece to me, but something still seems off... then again, I've never put on a filter relocation setup, so...

Eh, even without the nitrous, you're looking over the 700whp mark. A built 1j will take 9k without trouble too. However, one oops at power levels like that and you're towing it home...

What about anodizing? Given all the cracks and fins that would need coated, I don't think it would be very easy to do, but I know very little about anodizing parts.

Well played sir. Let's just say I don't take well to people I don't know poking their nose around my business without asking. I'm more than willing to show a car, or give a ride, but sneaking around tends to look VERY shady. :p Plus, you know, I don't want people knowing I'm running full on...

Heh, would love to, but have a lot here I still love about the US. Buddy of mine who was there with the Marines a few years, and has known me for 25 years said I would do quite well there, it wouldn't be too much of a culture shock for me... Would likely just be a better option overall to get...

Guys, I doubt there is a maximum on these, only a minimum. I could be wrong though. Paging Noel to the thread he started... Noel?

Generally speaking around these parts, you're right. That is what sucks about playing with his 7m's, they are fun and pull great... for a day or two. :nono: In this guy's case though, it is more a lack of time to do it than the skill. Plenty of that on his end. ;)

I mean, it is pretty awesome, don't let me take away from that, but 200mph... in what sort of distance? Obviously you're going to need around 400-500whp to pull 200mph in one of these cars, but was there a limited distance? If it is only a mile... not bad at all. If the runway were like 2 or 3...

So, "good news, it's a suppository!" quality then?

I would be, but we don't have any tracks around here, and I've nearly been run over in a CAR on more than one occasion, so... I'll leave the fun to you guys. :)

Yeah... carbon fiber wide body. Might have gotten in over my head, definitely didn't consider all the costs involved. Word of advice, ask around before diving in. :p Just don't rush things in the name of getting it driving, nobody likes cut corners, especially Supras. ;)

Long as you ask for permission first, explaining why you would like the picture, I don't see anything wrong with the idea. Whoever it is might have some insight as to where they came from too. However, take pictures of my car in my driveway, without asking? I'll assume you're a car thief and...

Shouldn't mean you can't get them Jordan, just that shipping might be a bit more expensive. If all else fails, you might find someone that lives in Japan or Europe that you trust to ship the gears to you...

Bit of overspray really shouldn't hurt anything. I wouldn't recommend coating your intercooler with too much paint, although I am no expert in the subject. As for maintenance, if you're bored, pull the intercooler off and straighten out those fins, get the bugs out, pull the AC condenser and do...

Ever done any LED setups Wolfie?

Just giving you crap Nick. Also, wasn't "for the win", or FTW for short, taken from Hollywood Squares? Pretty sure that show is at least as old as I am...

Alternatively, I would think to use fingernail polish/paint/whaterver girls call that stuff... Then give it all a layer of clear when you're done. :) Just giving you hell man. I've never had a "new" set of them, and I'm sure the couple sets I've driven on were a bit beyond the "use by" date, so...

Is your house from 4 years ago too? :: zombie ::
