    inner tire wear

    Yeah definitely ^ a good alignment is key. Although, I ran into a problem with my coilover's, a perfect alignment wasn't possible. Me thinks if you're going to drop the car significantly and still keep a 0.0 camber, you should look into getting modified A frames. The best the Tech could do with...

    A sad end...

    Should be turned into a floating museum like the Intrepid was. The Invincible is a piece of history, an epic ship, should be preserved as such. A Phenomenal ship http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Invincible_%28R05%29 Was such a waste to decommission after they modernized her.

    how many pounds of boost can a 7m handle??

    Not quite, but you're on the right track. I don't claim to a expert but, the higher PSI in the intake, the more air can be crammed into the cylinder when the valve drops. So in essence, more boost = more air velocity = more pressure in the cylinder. Size of the turbo depends on what you...

    HKS/Brain Cower/CCS cam? I need help

    A little off topic and I'm not sure about anyone else, but I'd think you'd need something more durable than a W58 for a transmission if you're aiming for 780-850hp. A R154 would suit you better, and with that power, I'd consider even beefing that up. I believe the 264 Cam's are a mild...

    Got hit tonight, :) Fixed with pics on Post 91

    My cousin has it, it's a Mig welder Mario. It has all the necessary gear to make it work, if you need me to weld something, let me know. If you go the repair route, fixing that body is going to be a pain but doable, I can help with that. But it's likely that the frame has taken some stress...

    a different kind of MKIV...

    That looks amazing! But to think with just a turbo, he could be making double that power easily with that built engine lol.

    Simultaniously lower the value of the MKIII and the MKIV

    MKIII Supra in TopGear.

    Could be wrong, but that looks like a black mk3 next to it also. Same body line, just lowered.

    strength/weakness of transmissions

    Yeah, from what I've heard/read the w58 is the weaker one, holds roughly 350-400, and the R-154 can hold roughly double that.

    You know of any machine shops around nashville? I'm gonna get my block and head checked out soon, just about have the internals pulled out

    In a bind

    Umm... I know there is spec's to follow, but I assumed he knew of them and to check them. Was just giving some basic advice I could think of, off the top of my head. I've been through the BHG. It's a long, tedious and complicated process... and a pain, I know. Hopefully everything will be...

    In a bind

    Just make sure the head isn't warped or damaged, and make sure all the remnant of the old gasket is gone, and you should be good. Then a MHG and proper torque. Then another compression test. Don't forget to re-torque after 3 or 4 heat ups and cool downs. and by heat up, I mean actually...

    In a bind

    Looks like something is messed up on #5 and the ones nearest it, from what I remember pressure of the cylinders should be within 15 psi of each other at max. Yours is all over the board from 140 to 100, I don't think your motor will do well like that. If you keep driving on a BHG, you're only...
