  1. I work for Hyundai and youll be seeing a few other new cars before you see the new "Tib" as im almost sure its not going to be called that. Theyre supposed to keep the Tib (a FWD) so ive been told by the region reps. Early next year Hyundai should release the Genesis sedan, this is a car Korea has had for years just updated and its going after the 7 series! Also soon you should also see a really cool Elantra Hatch.
  2. Is it normal to sit beside the mail box waiting for it to come?HAHA
  3. Too bad the 4 rotor is kinda costly to build, someone correct me if im wrong. Cause that just sounds nasty!!! Plus youre looking at 5.2 liters of displacement. I'd also like to see more of that car!!!
  4. So when are we gonna see pics of everything finished? I watched the vid the other night and showed my buddy(who owns a skyline) and he thought it was the coolest thing. Cant wait to see and hear more of this car!!
  5. sweet and nasty all at once!! Awesome ride you built there Jay.
  6. Loved watching him drive, sad to see him go!
  7. Little do you guys know they left the burners on the ground and Mike provided all the hot air needed to fly the balloon. Congrats on the 6th Mike and Donna hope to see you two have many more. I think you did a good job Mike, Donna looks awful happy!
  8. We just need to get you a belt clip Paul!! then youll always have the keys to the tool shed.
  9. Using the search function will provide you many results! There are heads most outside of most anyone heres price range if they can be found. 1fastz and member just built his own and has a thread on it.
  10. Heres my 05' FZ6 converted to buell xb9s headlight and xb12s faring I made everything for the conversion. Hand polished wheels, Leo Vince Carbon w/ cat elimanator, 03-05' R6 forks and brakes, Pilot Power CT2 tires.
  11. I run Engine Ice w/ Water wetter added per bottle In my Sport bike. It dosent seem to get hot as fast In traffic. Also after a few hard runs up the mountain it matains good temp. As before with reg. glycol the temp gague would be pegged in these situations. I know its not a car but this is my experience.
  12. The Mex blocks were supposed to have a higher Nickle content in the block making them stronger.
  13. Sounds like Cylinder Ring blow by to me, you might do a comp. test and a leakdown test.
  14. I also like the blue sky to dark clouds in the second pic. Really nice car and awesome pics.
  15. Everytime ive done one I either brazed around it or welded it depending on what the plug was made of.
  16. hope she comes out on top, we're here for ya Jon!
  17. welcome to hybridZ love the mag so far just got my first issue!
  18. Thanks for the credit Oliver, and for making my head sore j/k. We could always invent or apply witch ever comes first, maglev bearings. I too think time would be better spent lowering CD to improve upon economy. Or use drive by wire drafting putting trucks nose to tail would help out as well.
  19. My thoughts on this would be, the extra drag caused by the lift would counter act the benifit of lighter load weight. Most cars now and some newer trucks have adopted better areo for fuel eco. Also the rolling resistance in modern tires has greatly improved over the last few years as well. I could be wrong tho, I too once thought of your concept.
  20. hey if you still need help let me know, I was lucky enuff to lose 4 of my wisdom teeth today. So tommorow is pending but if ya want give me a call. I could surely use the dough.
  21. Still planning on getting it Ive got him down to 600 now. But due to recent work on my knee I have a few medical bills I need to take care of. So hopefuly by next month sometime I tow it over here and start deconstruction. Ive got alot of work ahead of me if Im going to have Mikelly looking at my brake lights on the track someday.
  22. Def. check the oil in the carbs mine used to leak alo, so I had to constantly fill them. Although I used ATF just because I used so much, and its easy to find.
  23. I honestly dont like the build quality of the laser product. I installed one of their bike systems and wasnt impressed by the quality at all. But they sound pretty cool, not overly loud. Another note the muffs seem pretty heavy due to the stainless steel they use. Hope this helps some I cant speak for their Car products.
  24. If it happened after the intercooler install and nothing else. I'd be looking for a major boost leak.
