  1. nah, those aren't low profile tires. they still have a thick sidewall.
  2. we would calmly walk in, find the parts we need, and help each other lift the heavy stuff, and if someone got hurt we'd help them out lmao since that's how us Z owners are
  3. samsung makes some NICE LCD screens. I have a T190 that I got from a circuit city clearance sale (they're closing the store) 19in with decent contrast ratio and a 2ms response time. the viewing angle kind of sucks, but it's great for gaming and plenty big for me (i hadn't realized how much bigger than it was compared to my 17in CRT till I remember the CRT only has a 15.9 viewable) I could've gotten a bigger, better one, but this monitor only cost 200 dollars i think black friday is stupid though. people seem to throw away rationality and humanity JUST because they want those special sales on low quantity items and crap.
  4. if I was the manager of that store trying to close it and people said no, I'd yell at them to get the ♥♥♥♥ out of my store RIGHT NOW or I'll have the police arrest you for trespassing This is why I've given up on humanity
  5. geeze how much further will the prices drop? if this keeps up we may have (GASP) gas at under 1 dollar
  6. touge IS very cool. I love watching touge racing. narrow mountain passes and going as fast as you can through them.
  7. lol your trouble with getting the turbo out reminded me when I replaced the cranks on my bmx bike. I was swappnig out the one piece for a three piece, and after getting EVERYTHING out, the crank wouldn't come out no matter what I tried. I was to the point where I was beating on it with a hammer and kicking it. then i stopped and asked it kindly to come out... ...and it just fell out of the bike. an hours worth of work and the thing fell out on its own. hopefully everything works out fine haha. that detailing work you did looks GREAT by the way
  8. yeah, no kidding at .768/L he can get a gallon for like 2.36 with the current exchange rate...wait. the cad is worth 25c more than the usd right now...WOW
  9. it means they are REMOVING the launch control function from the 2010 GTR the wording is very clear on that.
  10. if drift racing was more like this, I'd say it would grow faster http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&VideoID=46461075
  11. I did this out of boredom using that picture cygnusx1 did (i hate those flat spots)
  12. lmao, I just thought of some 20 year old 80's style punk rocker, clad in beat up shoes, a beat up plaid jacket, torn up jeans, and a huge mohawk, carrying a file folder full of nice and clean paper work, then beating the system at their own game lmao
  13. WOW that thing cleaned up nice. I'm curious about something. It looked like it had an engine fire near where the mechanical fuel pump is located. any story on that?
  14. well, if it's a good solid rebuild and sitting for the past couple years hasn't harmed it, I'm sure it could get a decent price. you never know, someone may need a good longblock for their Z
  15. it's those flat spots on the sides of the fenders that annoy me. as for the shop, front end of an S2000 rear end of a Porsche. not bad haha
  16. WHOA so I was looking for info on this engine, and i found YOUR CAR posted LAST YEAR on hbz by a member! VERY cool 2+2!
  17. lol you didn't read his post did you. that IS the blue angels practicing for an air show
  18. one day in the distant future, that image will make people scream SHOP! until someone digs into the internet archives, and finds his website hahah
  19. No, I wouldn't use it, nor would I put anything into it to try and clean it out it's probably clogged to hell and won't cool your engine very well (like mine did, it started to crystalize and had built up inside the cores, clogging it to the point the car would overheat in 10 minutes)
  20. because of the weight placement. on a VW based trike, all the weight is in the back, on top of the rear wheels. if you turn, you need to shift a lot more weigh to the front before it tips over. in that Z trike's case, the weight is ALL up near the front, if you turn it just right, it'll go over real fast. There's a reason why a lot of drag strips don't allow trikes, and why ATV trikes aren't made anymore. Maybe if you're going like 25mph all the time it's fine, but a trike built like that isn't very safe imo.
  21. and for those of you too lazy/too slow to bother looking at the rear end flex
  22. yeah, killathrill is just a clothing company, meaning that the video is just a publicity stunt to boost their popularity and make more people know of them however, a plane can land and fly with one wing if it has enough thrust. many years ago an F-15 did that when it lost its wing when it collided with an F-4. the engineers even said it was impossible to do it till they finally came to the conclusion that the huge intakes must give the fuselage a large enough surface area for the jet to fly if it's going fast enough (it basically becomes a ballistic missile)
  23. ah yes, I remember that. must have been a cheap (and very dangerous) way to repair a destroyed front end? (I also noticed he still has the bumper shocks for the rear end haha)
  24. I just watched it for that, and that show rocks hahahahaha
  25. hmm i would think 45 would be the optimal angle, but that's just due to me playing to many trajectory/shooting games. I thougth about it more. 60* would be the limit I think. if you throw it at 60* it will land at 60* (not counting wind resistance) meaning the peak would HAVE to be at 60* hypotenuse would equal distance thrown. throw it at 61* and it lands at 61* the peak has to be 58* meaning the hypotenuse is now greater than distance thrown. I think...
