    Need some info on SILV06

    As for the Taxi bit - as long as I make it down there this year, (and that is the plan) you can carpool with me. :)

    Carbon fibre cowl hood

    Duane will make just about anything, it's just a matter of generating enough interest that he can sell 5-10 of them. Otherwise it's tough to justify making a mold.

    how much boost and hp CAN a stock hg take anyway

    This one is pretty good, actually. Nobody has started calling anyone names, there's been no mention of a certain dictator in eastern europe in the mid 1900s, and nobody has screamed "JIHAD" at the top of their lungs and tried to stab their nearest Supra neighbor. Debate is good, it lets the...

    Human Upgrades? WTF?

    Won't work. Local kid up here running a Gallardo got busted - he was on the freeway at night, lights off, doing 200mph, wearing night vision goggles. The police couldn't follow him, he was too fast. They couldn't tell when he was coming, no lights. 200 mph isn't faster than the radio, though...

    how much boost and hp CAN a stock hg take anyway

    How many of those 50+ supras were original gaskets, torqued low from the factory? How many of the remainder were too much boost without enough fuel?

    LOL - nope. It's not actually my theory, something I read on the 'net. Of course, *everything* on the net is true, so... ;)

    how much boost and hp CAN a stock hg take anyway

    The rumor is that the 7M was designed to blow it's head gasket from the factory. The theory is that the USA government was under pressure from the big domestic auto manufacturers to implement extra tariffs on Japanese auto imports, so that the domestic guys wouldn't have to compete on the same...

    New Spearco IC & BIC modified hardpipes installed *PICS*

    Not exactly, his are the replicas of this one. I haven't seen actual specs on the replicas, but if nothing else they will be a huge step up from a stocker.

    how much boost and hp CAN a stock hg take anyway

    bigaaron, I'm not saying people should build motors with composite gaskets and head for 700whp. Realistically, a MHG and the prepwork for one isn't that much of a cost to consider when you are going for that level of performance, and the extra insurance is well worth it. What I *am* saying is...

    Just how reasonable is the speed limit?

    Check this out... looks like driving the limit is more dangerous than speeding! http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5366552067462745475&q=A+Meditation+On+the+Speed+Limit

    Quick ? About Getting videos.

    You need a video card with a video in coax port. Run the video signal from the camera to the video in port on the PC, and the sound from the headphone port on the camera to the microphone input on the PC. Then you need something like ULead Video Studio to pull in your videos and edit them.

    Frame Strength

    I've seen a Corolla twisted from too much torque to the point that you can only get three tires to touch the ground. The only way I've seen a Supra do the same thing is after a severe accident. :) There's no difference between the NA and Turbo chassis that I am aware of.

    how much boost and hp CAN a stock hg take anyway

    Hmmm... I know lots of DSM guys here, and they very rarely have head gasket problems. They blow up trannies, crack pistons, tear apart blocks... but I've seen them running well over 500 whp without blowing head gaskets. The local guys don't even consider a MHG until they are nearing 600 whp...

    Hmmm... might be able to get the BC crew to drive down to this one, too. :) Cheap places to stay around there? Campground or something similar?
