Gotcha, mine did that too, just started leaking like crazy immediately after the swap. It was a total bitch getting a replacement, but you can at napa. Where did you order it from?

HAHA! That would be awesome, 2 issues, it is a monocoque and it is mid engine, the j and m series engines wont fit :( But damn that would be cool. we transversed the civic engine and ran cables through the center of the car to control it :) Wow, a fully carbon fiber supra would be so cool! Can...

I like that idea

All the carbon was donated. We have 3 CF companies in the area, so we get all of their scraps. We have more carbon then we know what to do with. it is great. also all the matrix we need too. We have built 4 of these bodies so far. real world it would be around 60k in carbon work. total i think...

Very nice dude! I look forward to meeting you at the meet -Josh

Awesome, another Josh with a 1j in the are. have you dynoed your 1j yet?

Haha! Yeah, i am going to be changing that. After fricken 30 years of designing cars, we haven't ever named a single one. It is so dumb. I have a list of like 80 names and we are going to be deciding on one soon. I will update when it happens :)

The rear is hinged. The whole rear area lifts back. It looks super cool, but i dont have any pix of that. :)

HAHA! Yeah, We didn't have time to create a cool cover, so i printed a photo of the flux capacitor. :) It was a huge hit! We are going to be building a real looking one with leds for the final car. :) We put the ecu there because it was the simplest place and safest spot, but it does need a cool...

I am in grad school at the VRI, Vehicle Research Institute at Western Washington University. This is our 40th car since the early 70's when Doc Seal started the program.

Well, this is the Automotive Research Raptor, It is the car i have helped build and design all year. I know i am cheating because it isn't a supra, but i think it is special. The info. It is a fully carbon fiber body and chassis. With engine and everything it currently weights dry just under...

Whatever, see u at the meet.

Excuse me, how is 300lb-ft not any torque? Would you like to clarify?

I agree!

3rd is definately most common. I might try 4th next time, but i ran mine in 3rd last time.

Man, should have gone 1j. I drive mine all day every day, no issues :) No, just playing dude:) I do want to see yours back on the road. TTFN

U r welcome :) I cant wait to see your car back on the road.

YAY! Dude there are tons of guys from Spokane coming, why don't you hitch a ride in a supra? TTFN

I am not totally sure, i wont be back until middle june for a week. Post a date and see if others can meet.having a monthly meet would be cool. I know a few of the guys get together often anyways, so i dont think it would be too much of a problem. We had a fricken blast at the last meet.

I will make a post on the spokane site so we can decide where to meet and head out. http://spokanesupras.freeforums.org/meeting-place-for-centralia-t7.html#12
