  1. Cole, Do you have exhaust clearance issues now? at the back?
  2. Will the Armada flanges clear the A arms? They are 7/8" dia. larger than 300Zx TT. R230 TT R230Aramada
  3. I hope your joking again. RB weight more than V8s.
  4. I generally call mine insulting names, like piece o junk, etc..., because I once bragged that it was reliable and never left me stranded. So to repay my compliments it refused to start. I got to keep this one on a short leash.
  5. loss of headroom for your helmet leaking creaking ugly like 70's socks with stripes weaker car
  6. What size turbo piping does one use for a given horsepower?
  7. Answers people we need answers. Can anyone produce a rear struct pic with a 10 inch spring at a reasonable height.
  8. Car Mag Shootouts! Did you see the Motortrend or C and D, they had a big shoot out. The cars typically cost $55000 ish total with all mods and delivered lame performance. The cars never seem to deliver. There was a 396 HP civic SI turbo (2525 lbs)that ran 13.5@106 and a 452HP Neon SRT that ran 13.4@112mph. That got me to thinking I must be putting doen around 750 HP with this new math...
  9. I just put it at 4500-5000 any let the clutch out under WOT, by the time the things catch up with each othe boost is made.
  10. Analyze the forces. Since the strut move up and down with minimal side load the top bar is sufficient.
  11. I think I can run 10 inch springs instead of 8 inch (to prevent coil bind at 225lbs/inch), on the rear. I am running 17x9 with 245 40 17, coilovers, no flares. Is the perch slightly above the wheel? It look to be close. Let me know.
  12. http://www.gtrproto.com/ Discuss.
  13. Update: This was my garage more recently. I have pulled the drivetrain for painting and a rollcage. I have some good pics to post soon.
  14. first show us the pics of the turbo second if it needs a rebuild it is not worth rebuilding (cost wise) get one from the yard for $200 bucks. If you are doing a hybrid you have enough problems...
  15. Who has the new R35 GTR Skyline Pics and info?
  16. You can not live like this... How in world do you get to work, etc....Sell all cars but the GTO. Buy a newish 98 or newer for cheap. And pay off all tickets fines etc... And walk the straight and narrown so the law forgets who you even are.
  17. Go to the Junk yard they are a dime a dozen for about $60 bucks.
  18. 83-93 mustang 5.0 5 spd 924 turbo porsche 1986 ish monza 350 ci (california) mid 1970's Any GSX or TSI Turbo daytona's (lame FWD though) 87-92 RX-7 turbo II 280ZX Turbo 1983 ish Any v8 GM car 1972 or older car that weighs less than 3500 lbs In general the turbo cars will bleed you dry after you blow them up with too much boost.
