    upstate ny build 08-09

    The shop that I go to with my 88 turbo, when I don't do it myself, is called Inline Performance at 1809 Altamont Ave. Schenectady, NY 12303. Phone is 518-357-4100. I don't know what they do as far as tuning is concerned, but one of the owners (Dave) is a Mk3 guy and knows his shit. I've had...

    $150 bet for me to run 13.5, need advice

    Practice practice practice! It doesn't matter how fast the car is if you screw up the launch. Good luck!

    Supra from HELL?

    What a waste. If the owner of this car ever has the misfortune of meeting me, I may just have to hurt him. Until then, I'm going to go be sick.

    engineering jobs anyone?

    I'm a mechy as well. Unfortunately my school didn't so SAE, which really pissed me off. They do some fun shit, and it looks really good on your resume.

    I just had to post this...ricers

    So I was talking to my buddy, Wolf, and he insisted I tell the story of his favorite race... He was going down a local highway that is the popular local place to drag, on his modified Katana 600 when he pulled up to a red Isuzu Amigo. The next thing he knows, the amigo is revving and the...

    Crisp, is that a compliment I found hidden in there? I didn't realize you cared!!! :biglaugh: But you bring up few good points, and overall, I agree. Especially the part about the car and the mods there for your own personal experience. I couldn't agree more. My car is mine, and is the...

    I just had to post this...ricers

    Around where I am there really are very few decent imports but there are a TON of ricers. More often than not, if I find anyone worth chatting with, they're in a domestic, and usually a camaro/firebird or a mustang. I've had more fun tearing up the streets with the domestic guys than I ever...

    I just had to post this...ricers

    Personally, I like the movie. I just try to ignore all the talking and only listen to the cars. You have to admit, they do look and sound good, even though the rest is bullshit.

    building up a blown 7mge n/a

    If you decide to go this route, do a lot of research before buying. I've been considering a JDM swap to replace my toasted 7mgte and from what I've seen, it's not worth it unless you want a JDM engine specifically. The general consensus I've gotten from the guys on the forums is that if you...

    Rebuild or Replace?

    Doesn't sound like it's worth the money. I figured that would be the case, but I saw it out there and thought I'd ask. So what I'm getting from this thread is that I really need to get my old man to clear out the garage (or let me clear it out) so I can get the supra in and the engine out...

    Rebuild or Replace?

    So how hard is it to tear apart the bottom end and replace the crank, bearings, rods, etc? I don't have a lot of time to work on it, maybe an day each week, but should I count on not being able to drive her at all this summer, or is there a chance I'll get it done in time for an August cruise...

    Rebuild or Replace?

    You guys bring up some good points that I haven't thought of or didn't know. Thanks for the insight!

    Could you escape, and live the rest of your life undetected?

    Not me! My father lives in Wyoming! I'd head to Australia. So much vast open space with LONG straight roads... Plus, you can head out in the bush, find a small town and move in. Plus, they speak english, so language isn't a barrier.
