ROFLMAO!!!!!!!! that beats my story!

what you can do with a rental mustang...

Don't even bother going through the company to get your $$ back - contact your credit card company, write them a formal letter of complaint, and their legal dept will take care of it. Less hassle for you

either way, whatever that red blotch was (looks like either a C4 or C5) it is definitely chevy powered. And that mustang driver needs to learn how to drive - that looks like a mid 15 second pass he mads. I can do faster than that in my 4 banger dodge neon! (in fact, i have)

no, i think all the civic owners saw what it could do since it was the fastest import at california modified import races (ran 9.5@146mph, letting off the throttle because he would break out of his dial in)

Correction: great minds think for themselves

ok so it's not really a question

Now you guys know where most of my ricey humor pictures come from just offchance of having the camera in the passenger seat Oh, and the wheels are Ronals 15x7 - they actually belong to DavyZ who's kind enough to let me borrow them. Thanks for the compliment, truthfully when we got davy's pc up and running, i showed him the thread where you said you took your wife for a spin, and we sat there for 5 minutes drooling over your car. Then Davy had his wife drool over your car too! hehe

unless you have a japanese sport bike, you're not a rice rocket driver the term rice rocket came from harley owners describing japanese sport bikes that started surfacing in early 80s and some late 70s.

Are you talking about that brown 240 that's sitting on the cross street? Davy and I checked it out, it'd make a great parts car, but for a project.... it has frame rust and pretty torn up frame rail on the driver's side, along wit some other issues. Just my 2 cents when we checked it out on april 6th meet. I think he wanted about 300 back then for the car? don't quote me on that

Late chiming in here! I'll follow suit - the bbq was great, I got some useful info, and gave some useful (i hope?) info as well... As for the car thrashing, I think Dan Juday was doing that on my car on the stiffest settings (tokiko illuminas on 5, GC coilovers with 200lb/in springs all around, pu and pg bushings, 1" front sway bar and scca's vented toyota kit). He and Z dreamer both found the car to be quite stiff (no pun intended) and have no further use of their prostates! just kidding :)O

the stock tach until 73 has 4 prongs, 73 has 3. as everyone knows, 73 tachs go out all the time. unfortunately, i have that problem. I have a spare 4 prong tach, so my question is can one wire up the 4 prong to 3? What are the wiring differences? It's impossible to find a 73 tach at a junkyard

example 1. I go to Bank of America today to deposit some checks (that, and a hot blonde works there). Anyways, a teller motions me over, as she's depositing the checks, I mention that it sucks owning a black car in 100+ * heat. She replies saying that could be worse, could be leather seats. I tell her how unpleasant arizona was when I went there in april, and it was over 100 degrees there. She replies with... "April? Is that like, in the Fall?" I look at her thinking "OMG... did your parents have any children that lived?" I also recalled seeing an episode of the tonight show with jay leno, where he went on the streets and asked people "when was the war of 1812 fought?" and he got ridiculous replies like 1100ad and the 1990. I didn't think people were really that dumb, but shoot... I guess there are! example 2. I stop by Ross (yes, I am cheap and a bachelor, I shop at Costco and Ross for clothes). I am looking at white shirts for the heat, and there's a big black dude next to me talking to his friend. He says "man, you see all them people working here at ross? They're all immigrants, working for the white man, for minimum wage. Just like we used to... on the f#cking plantation!" Then he continues to rephrase the same thing about 10 times in course of 3 minutes I was there, every time finishing up with "Goddamn plantation" and "the white man" I stood there scratching my head and wondering if I was in a rendition of The Big Lebowski where Walter constantly talks about vietnam, even though it has no relevance whatsoever

Pete - gotta give some leeway for wankel powered cars - no matter what, with anything but stock exhaust they'll sound like a weed whacker on crack. My friend has an '89 GTUs (stripped of all luxuries) rx7 n/a. He put on new pipes since his old ones were shot to hell and rusting. These are aftermarket mazdaspeed? units, and they're loud. REAL LOUD. But at WOT, the sound clears up quite a bit and it sounds like a bike driving by But it did help out with top end quite a bit

I had a shoei rf800, got it with the bike. my nose stuck almost into the vent, and generally it was a warm helmet with crappy ventilation. the arai quantum/f is what i have now - terrific helmet, worth every penny. has detachable cheek pads, 10 vents (7 of which can be open/closed) retractable neck guard spoiler, etc.

Yup. My friend loves doing that in his FC - wind out to 8k and let off the gas ... POP! backfires

HAHAHAH!

Arai!

toyota called. they want the celica front end and the lexus rear back this is what the new Z should have been:

actually, the guy who runs riceboypage.com is a friend of mine, and if you look in hall of shame 10 and 11, the turbo ferrari, the pro stock hood prelude with spoiler and the yellow crx with TRD banner are my work

but aren't GT racing stripes on an econobox = rice?

would you put it on this car?

With road rash! Stupid squid looks like he's about to cry. in fact, he looks like this dude

they did. they tested prototypes for a 3 rotor wankel 240z, and a factory v8 Z. then the gas crisis hit in the 70s and they suspended testing of wankel and 8 banger motors
