  1. that side skirt looks absoulutly awesome, would look even better with a similar design to replace hte garden trim in the front.
  2. Lemme know when you are doing testing!!! that tunnel is jsut a couple mintues from my house. Maybe we could have a little get together.
  3. LMAO I dunno why thats so funny but i couldnt stop laughing. The integra from a dig was sooo funny.
  4. holy smokes..... those things have some dish!!!! Im assuming this is for a track car since you when with 15's? What tires are you gonna run?
  5. Please bring me a hot brazilian girl between the ages of 18 and 25. No gift wrapping please, but a bow would be nice
  6. Hey guys, Thanks for the feedback Davyz, Im glad you like it and I hope it works out good for you. I want to emphisize as well that you probably will want to cut the fenders a bit higher in the rear then I did, I have rubbed them a couple times.... I dont have bump stops in my car though. Next time I get a chance i will take the spring off to check suspension travel and see just how close it is (prolly something I should have done before hand lol) Also I do reccomend buying the flares from Classic Datsun. I do however believe they are the same as MSA. But the customer service and people at Classic datsun are great, and I believe that have a slightly better price. I do as little with MSA as I can, costomer service is not the name of their game.
  7. Haha yea if that motor was only 15 grand oh boy oh boy. Id be saving my pennies!!!
  8. Pretty sure he had those made, I remember seeing a build website for this guy a couple years back... awesome to see he finished the thing!!! That car is kick ass.
  9. haha thats because its been sitting in my garage for a couple months.

  11. Youre right crispy, silly me i guess it was pure conincidence I will give yamaha's one thing they have really really comfy seats!!
  12. Oh nad my vote goes for an Aprillia Super motor, or any supermoto bike for that matter. I was was in the local aprillia dealership today looking at one and man they are baddass, looks like they would be tons of fun and make a good run about bike as well.
  13. Crispy Chicken Looks like your a little defensive. Im just trying to share my expriences, Ive never had a single problem with a Honda. I have three good buddies with yahmaha's. And ill review, One blew his r1 in less then a year doing wheelies, another has nagging electrical problems on his r6(likes to cut all electrical power while riding) also had second gear go out, and the other switched from a honda 600rr to a r1 and complains constantly of build quality. Thats all.
  14. My friend blew his brand new r1 in just a couple thousand miles from oil starvation, might be something to think about if you stunt. He liked to ride long standup wheelies on the interstate. might have just been a problem with a certain year but im not an expert, just something to check into.
  15. I agree 100% drop down under the name, I hate looking for albums.
  16. I love the silver and black, my buddy has one of those. I actually bought my rr from him and he bought his brothers r1. He wants to get rid of it for a new 1000rr, says he misses the smoothness of a honda but love the power of the r1 here is my baby, i love the way it pulls above 10K :
  17. Awesome bike if you can find one used, new they are like 500 bucks less then a 1000 haha. Be a nice step up from a 600 plenty of power o get you into trouble. I believe the new ones have 143hp.
  18. I love the new cbr1000's, and liter bikes are very tempting...BUT.... I know that I CANNOT ride a 1000cc bike at or near its limits. I dont think there are many people who can. I personally thought very hard about going to a 1000 but becided that until i can ride every once out of my 600 I wont change, Its just foolish. I have a 2003 Cbr600rr I ride every day, its my daily driver now even in the winter and I love it! Im a honda man (motorcycles) , they are so smooth and well built. R6 & R1 I havent heard to many good things about from my friends, lots of problems; electrical, oil starvation, rattles etc. If i was buying a bike for 5K I would be looking at 03-04 cbr6000rr's or 2004+ gsx-r 600's
  19. They can also be affected by backflow due to the turbo. this is particularly true with KA setups. The air coming back out of the turbo on decel messes with the MAS and causes the motor to shut down
  20. Very Nice. I love panasports, great wheel for the Z! Reminds me of my old 260... time for some fiberglass bumpers and some lowering springs!
  21. Hey Glen! While youve got it out there isnt any reason not to check it out a bit. You can check all your clearances on the bottom end with a couple pieces of plastigauge. I personally would go ahead and tear it down replace all the gaskets including headgasket. Clean everything and put her back together. Anyway Good to see you posting here, If you need any help hollar.
  22. This is my garage, its a detached 3 car unit. 2 bays are used for parking/working on cars and the third for fabrication. If your building/organizing a garage just remember anything sitting out uncovered will collect dust, and if you start piling stuff on hte floor or in the corners it will never move. Shelving and plastic boxs like ive done are pretty cheap for storing lots of stuff. We put steel bars over the windows, I keep the powertools/airtools locked up and we have motion detectors inside. For fire protection a heat sensor was put in this way it could be active at all times and anykind of fumes wouldnt set it off. Also for anyone building a garage, a sink is a must, one thing I wouldnt mind having.
