    Hid's ?

    Why are you shouting at us? Did we do something wrong? Yes, they will mount on the frame rails nicely. You'll need to pull your headlight assemblies to get in there easily, though.

    Looking for your turbo impressions

    I've gone from stock, to an upgraded CT, to a full on bolt on Turbonetics. The upgraded CT was fun, but it didn't last. It was a bit hard to drive too, boost hits hard and fast - not such a good thing when you're cornering. The Turbonetics bolt on is very nice - slower to spool, which makes...

    Fiberglass dash's?

    Roy (TTE) was talking about making one way back when, but I don't think he ever did it.

    Computer Guys Look Inside!

    Download an Ubuntu install CD off the 'net and boot off that. You can boot to Linux without installing anything, it all loads from the CD. If it works, there's something wrong with the windows install. If it doesn't, there's something wrong with the hardware.

    How about... call them and ask?

    Car wash sprays water past window seals?

    Nope. I've got new seals as well, and I get a small trickle on the passenger side only, the driver side seals perfectly.

    I can't help but kinda laugh at this guys death.

    Agreed, it's a pretty safe thing to watch. Unlike euro rally racing, which seems to knock off a bunch of spectators every year.

    Changing Engine Mounts

    It's not a problem, I just didn't want to leave everyone with the impression you can pull two nuts per side and it's done. It's actually 2 nuts and ~5 bolts per side.

    Roommate problems, what to do?

    That one never works, because nobody ever turns on the shower while standing under it.

    what do you do with the oil dipstick tube...

    Flexibility is key in many places... oil dipstick tubes and girlfriends come to mind. Seriously, I just bent mine too... as long as you don't mess with the length, you should be fine.

    who here stands by the 7m and have 350+ hp reliably

    The calculations aren't that simple, I'm afraid. To get a true idea, you'd need a whole lot more factors. First of all, who spins their 7M to 7000? The real question is, with similar setups, what RPM does each engine have to spin at to get, say, 400whp? The 7M will be lower, and that will...

    Roommate problems, what to do?

    I'm old, wise, kind, and thoughtful... Unless you really piss me off, then I've got 40+ years of experience to truly fuck up your life. Furthermore, I grew up with an old retired soldier / merc who did a good job of pounding into my head that the way to win conflict is to consistently take it...

    Roommate problems, what to do?

    Ok, the key here is that you only need to show respect to people who show you respect in turn. This guy is a clown, so treat him as such. He's pulling the racism card? Pull it back. Find out what he is and isn't allowed to do / touch / eat for his race and religion. For instance, wrap...

    Fast and the Furious 4

    I'll go. I go see pretty much everything in the theatre - hitting up Monsters vs. Aliens tonight. Hell, if all I get is a bunch more of these, I'll be happy:

    My Motor Carnage pics!!!

    That's exactly it. Faulty injector doesn't put in enough fuel, cylinder runs lean, lean = HOT, piston melts, molten aluminum coats the rod / crank / everything underneath it. This has nothing to do with machine work.

    afm question

    There are so many things wrong with this idea I can't even start to count them. Methods of dealing with fuel cut are well documented - not a surprise, considering that people have been hot rodding these cars for over 2 decades. Read up on them, and use one.

    Acceptable?

    If a product doesn't arrive in the condition it was described, you should do something about it. Among other things, even if you don't suffer any loss from this, the shipper obviously needs to learn something - before he pulls the same stunt shipping something a little more fragile.

    7MGE & 1uzfe Cressidas

    WOW - that's very well done. Glad to have you here. What transmission is bolted to the back of the 1UZ? Stock ECU or standalone?
