    Annual "Vegas Burrito Wrap-Up Thread"

    I think the details of this are up on SM & SF...but my view was pretty spectacular. I also left my street tires back at the hotel, so Jerry R. let me pump'em back up to ~35 so I'd be able to drive it. The rain kept me a good 6-7 car lengths in front of Keith & Chris in the minivan, last ones...

    Official MKIII Smack down, High Roller Series and other VEGAS results here!

    I'm gonna hafta disagree with that one! I suck so bad with my new set-up that each time down the track, I shaved .5! Dave only beat my 60' and ET's on our semi-final run. I just gotta learn how to freakin' drive: Maybe I should train with Nick! :nono: The low time should have gotten the "bye"...

    Official SILV08 Information

    OK folks. Pre-registration has CLOSED for this year's Poker Tournament. There are 14 confirmed, paid players. What that means is that I'm SURE there will be folks that want to play when they get there but haven't pre-paid. The entire purpose of pre-payment was to avoid the situation last...

    SAFC tuning fuel press Q's

    Am I absolutely sure?...No. Like I said, there's alot more to these calculations that needs to be considered. But you also must assume that you'll be creating full boost at well below red-line RPM's. The key here is to consider all the variables when calculating the correct FP to your Boost & HP...

    SAFC tuning fuel press Q's

    Wow. I'm running pretty much the same mods in Sarah, my 90T/Auto (7m with all that and some 7-series NGK Iridiums), but with the stocker 440's benched to 455 @ 100%. I was peaking my STOCK CT at 305/350 with an even safer A/F Ratio at 15 lbs, but as you guessed, even with full hardpipes &...

    Pinks Supra wants to head to the Vegas event...(see info inside)

    automatic turbo supras

    ...which is why yours doesn't do a damn thing. :icon_surp When the temps here in AZ go up, that sucker kicks in and gives that little extra air pull through the AC fins/Tranny Cooler/Radiator, and it DOES make a difference. ...and my car is a 90T/A, which has the higher rear gears (lower...

    automatic turbo supras

    I, too, love the feel of a 5 or 6-spd. ...but I'll agree with everything said here. "Sarah" is currently sporting a built-AT with a 3500 stall TQ. Last dyno (SILV'07) on the STOCK CT26 netted 305 RWHP/350 RWTQ at ~15lbs boost. Since then, I've added the 57-trim CT, upped my FP to...

    :confused: huh ??? Uh, the Poker Tournament buy-in is just $81, not $250. Where did you get that crazy, grossly-incorrect information?? Oh, and if you suck at poker AND you're over 21: PUULLLEEEZZE Play!

    They may be, but Greg A. is not Arabian. He IS, however, the defending SILV Poker Tournament CHAMPION, so he's bustin' his behind from MD to LV in either his MkII or his VERY nice '92 MkIII to defend his title. If you'll be over 21 yrs old on October 2, 2008, SIGN UP for our annual...

    Official SILV08 Information

    Actually, the Poker Tournament will also allow for you to pre-pay for your escorted guests, and they'll also get the same discounted pre-registration rate that you'll get! With less than 80 days until SILV, I'd like to remind everyone about two things: -SILV this year is going to be...

    MKIII Smackdown - SILV08

    Since this thread obviously has a few gamblers present, might I remind everyone about two things: -SILV this year is going to be something very special! The organizers have gone out of their way to take the event to a higher level while at the same time keeping the "everybody knows your...

    infintiy or not?

    I highly recommend the Infinity Kappas for the fronts, especially if you're 87-90 and the 6.5" conversion is out of the questions. I've got'em in the doors of my 90T, and I'm having a hard time convincing myself to switch to the 6.5 thin-mount Pioneers I still have in the box. AFA the subs...

    Vegas!!!! MK3's smack Talk/update on travellers heading to Vegas

    ...at least the ones you can get by payin' all them folks to vote for your car at the S&S. Here's some SNAP to go with my sour grapes! Luv'ya, Nickster. -=S=- & Sarah ps...2jzGTE's (single or dual) will probably be racing in the MkIV's classes.
