    My Metro just got totaled :(; Stupid Ford Escapes

    Man am I in the wrong business, I only get $0.55 per mile if I use my car for anything company related... At least you seem to have a sense of humor about it. Sorry to hear though man, stupid fat cars are why we can't have nice things. :(

    Bring back the Kaminari 3 piece spoiler???

    I was just throwing out a ballpark figure, of course I have no idea what their pricing structure looks like. :) Either way, just having the option would be nice... Can always ask if Scruggs is willing to suggest that to the new owner, get with Shine on it...

    89+ Tail light conversion done. Remove the spoiler?

    They're not too big if you hate understeer as much as I do... They're a bit more weight to roll around, but you'll never wish you had more front end grip. :)

    where to buy regulus type header panel

    Good luck. I've seen TWO pop up for sale here in the last few years. I have one of those two...

    It was bound to happen, and a good move for this company I believe....

    Looks to be, but I imagine if you're going to be spending CCW money or even looking at CCW's, you'd be needing taller (or at least wider) wheels than are offered here...

    supra drift in russia

    If it's the same video I'm thinking of, it was also posted on Jalopnik a couple days ago. :)

    Winter's coming, where can I learn to tame my supra?

    Ahh, that's too bad, looked like one. At least I hear they're good road trip cars, which I could see a Chrysler product being. :)

    Lucky! Well, for the time being, I'm only paying 1/2 of their regular rate as part of a promotion. Not unhappy with the service as a whole, and reading through the fine print, it specifically calls out that "speeds are based on ideal conditions, and that they are *up to* what you're paying for...

    Hp and MPG?

    You also live in the part of AZ that has hills and mountains... I'm sure a 67mm doesn't behave like the twins on mine, but mine go into boost just because of the load on the engine from the hills around here.

    3UR-FE swap?

    Same way you do in any other car... you'll just have to slow this one down a lot more and be a LOT more careful about when you crack open the loud pedal again. ;)

    89+ Tail light conversion done. Remove the spoiler?

    You'll like those 275's man. If your wheels are wide enough, stick 275's up front too. ;)

    Finally picked up my Volks. Pics inside

    Hey the sawblades don't look horrible, but you won't want to go back after the Volks. Nice taste man...

    Bring back the Kaminari 3 piece spoiler???

    You know, I offered Shine the chance to replicate the Regulus wing I picked up sometime last year, but at the time they had no interest in replicating it. This thread however, seems to have a hope. I like the idea of a "community" wing, get enough people to pitch in and send the original one...

    My 1977 7M-GTE CELICA! Finished! Test drive vid on page 18!

    Not too bad, but I would think if you have sticky enough tires, with a proper on-boost launch, you might see 1.4's with such a light car. :)

    Updated PICs of my post Supra BEAST

    Luckily you live in a low elevation, with nice weather to enjoy such a car... up here, the SS I had that started as a blast in 2000' Phoenix became a slug at 6600' in comparison. :p

    Winter's coming, where can I learn to tame my supra?

    Exactly! You never know when someone else has you in their sights, however unintentionally. Most of my best maneuvers were completely on accident, but calm and controlled reactions kept me in the clear. :)

    DSL Modem Education

    Could that explain that while one pays for 20mbps service, you only get between 7-10mbps? That's the boat I'm in. Always figured it was like the old 56k modems, where you were limited to 53.something.

    What's the worst car you've ever owned?

    Did you try getting it to smoke? French car after all... they're a lot like a 2 stroke, you only worry if it's NOT smoking. :p You mean the Cadillac Cavalier? Haha, unfortunately, yes... speaking of Caddy's, listening to Rancid's "Time Bomb" at the moment. :) Was yours unsafe despite your...
