If you're looking for a long-lived (so far anyway) and relatively sticky tire that can also handle weather, I've been fairly happy with the Continental DWS tires that I've used for the last two winters. The only complaint I have about them is a fairly soft sidewall, but this has the added...

That's the one. I think putting that engine in anything less than a train would be kinda difficult to get traction with. Then again, two axles with 4 slicks on them each...

I believe you're referring to snap rings? If so, I always found that a couple thin screw drivers did the trick. So did the magnet when they went flying off into the unknown... :p

There's a line in the first Metal Gear Solid game that comes to mind... "Single action Army... .45 caliber, 6 shots... more than enough to kill anything that moves." Always liked that line. But yeah, if it takes more than a couple bullets to stop something... yikes. Must be one of those...

Show me a Mk4 these days that HASN'T been tinkered with, and I'll show you a 35-40k car. ;)

I know to each their own and all, but I love to hear an engine SING... all I've heard a diesel do (and I do hear a LOT of them, they're probably at least 20% of the vehicles on the road here), growlllll...shift, growlll, shift, growl some more, shift... on to an amazing speed of 45mph through...

Are these going to be available beyond this group buy, or is this run all that will be made? Looks quite nice to me. :)

Not saying I condone violence of any form really, but that would be enough for me to consider tattooing her forehead with "I'm a crazy bitch". :nono: Check your fuses? Is the hazard switch plugged in? IIRC, the hazard switch is tied in with those... don't quote me on that though, been a LONG...

As a PWR owner with an electric fan setup (good luck fitting a JZ and much of an electric fan in with a PWR), I will say this: cooling is more about how much air you can pass through the radiator than it is about the size of the radiator. Think about this, if you have a giant radiator, but can't...

This is true, I almost forgot you're a 7m car. Stock redline of 7200ish and 275/40/17's give it everything it has in 3rd, but doesn't have the power to need 4th unfortunately. 320rwhp here, stock bottom end, intake, intercooler (JZA70 stock anyway, tiny bit bigger than stock 7m IC), 3" turbo...

Same here, still sounds good. If you're creative and skilled with interior work, I'm sure you could figure something classy out, but if not, you may have to find 91/92 door panels. Could possibly try the dealer, but that would likely be expensive. Try it with your door panels as is, if you don't...

LS3 + boost = :D Do it. ;)

They did put these engines in different cars, with different mounting positions. ;)

Appears to be a hardtop at that. Can't be mad there...

15.3 @ 93mph, not too shabby. Gotta figure though, it probably has a power:weight ratio similar to a stock Mk3 turbo. Now, imagine the engine that Supracentral posted a video of recently in one of those. :evil2:

Kai, Kai, Kai... a 2jz moving that kind of weight would have to work VERY little, you'd see at LEAST 47mpg with the mighty Supra engine. They're rev happy too. :p

Well they do say variety is the spice of life... just gotta be careful that you don't end up with someone who has neglected taking care of a car, and you end up with their maintenance problems. ;)

Take off the entire front bodywork and you've saved yourself less than 100 lbs...

Err... what? You realize the "diagnostic" tool for our cars is merely a piece of wire (I keep a piece of speaker wire in my fuse box), even a paperclip will do. If he thinks your ECU is bad because he can't hook up his "diagnostic" tool, I'd be wary of letting him near the car with any tools...
