Just how many Mk4's do you have Mike? Sad to hear you sold all the Mk2's and 3's... As for me, once the motor is pulled from the current car to start the widebody on the 87 chassis, the Mk2 will be my winter steed. Works well enough, and I love the slip angle on the car, it's a blast to drive...

First thing I would check is your EFI fuse. ;) As someone who's pulled the dash a few times, you have my sympathies.

Hey, give the guy a break eh? What's this all aboot anyway? ;)

Projectsupra, when did Tom's make seats? Any more pictures of said car? On the subject of "the experience", I would suggest that driving a RHD car in a LHD world would have it's ups and downs like most anything. Left hand turns in intersections, for example. I've been in intersections where you...

I catch nearly any other "sporty" car driver staring at my car, and it's absolutely filthy... Almost always driving the opposite direction though, for some reason. And I wouldn't give that article much though, the guy clearly doesn't get the intent of the design. :p Always liked the thought of...

That's just a rod. ;) :p I'm not even a Dr Who fan, but that's quite amusing. :) Well said on both accounts. Same here, I've been driving a Supra for so long as a daily, it's a good feeling. Fortunately I'm blessed with a short commute. I can understand using other cars for commuting longer...

Wonder how all those people feel knowing your car is mostly stock? :p That CTS seemed to be afraid of the fun pedal...

Generally I am one to have the opinion that horsepower is like cocaine, there is no such thing as too much... However, if it ruins the balance of the car, AND it's done on a nice car to begin with? That's just a shame.

Well? How did it go? :)

Yeah, I get about 4-5 months of good weather, we call it springsummerfall here. It is basically the season where snow is *unlikely* to happen. :p

Good to know guys, thanks for the info. I have a set of Trico's sitting in the garage, they seem nice. The Bosch ones I put on a couple years ago are still in good shape though. Funny what spending a year in a garage does to the life expectancy of rubber parts... not out in high altitude sun and...

If you value and appreciate the response of a naturally aspirated engine, I wouldn't recommend rear mounted turbo systems. That is a LONG way (especially on a car that big) for exhaust to travel. Plus, where do they get the intake air from? Under the car is nice and away from engine heat, BUT...

More than likely a dry sump, yes. What's wrong with that though? I would think that a dry sump would be ideal for a drift car. Worst case scenario, you *are* a fabricator. ;) They also used these engines in a number of cars, although I'm not certain of oil pan orientation. RS200, Altezza, also...

Power is all fine and well and all, but sometimes man, there is more to a car than sheer numbers. Balance is something that can't really be quantified. I traded my old 2000 Miata with GS-D3's on it for a 2001 Camaro SS. The Camaro was stupid fast out of the corners (thank you torque) and on the...

My guess, the clutch... but the driveshaft might let go too, if it's stock. I don't think I saw what you're running as far as a driveshaft. By the way, I am loving the paint scheme. Who said beige can't bite? :evil2:

What was the camera car, and was it really trying? If you're saying the camera car was 800+hp, holy sheeet...

Grim, were you able to get new wiper blades from the dealer? I've always heard that the OEM ones were the best... You've inspired me to clean up and paint a few things on mine once we start tearing into the shell. :)

I wondered the same thing... Dude, I live where it gets WELL into the "spit goes 'tink'" temperatures, and my car has never had a problem getting up to full operating temperature. Might wanna add some troubleshooting that to the list. ;) That said, seems pretty quick...

Long time no see... you know, there is a nice thing that makes v8's better... boost. Get to it, start scaring some AMG's. ;)

Not even gonna sugar coat it. Some pilots are simply badass motherfuckers. :D
