  1. if you want them to be any more than fashion flares, you have to cut the fenderwell.
  2. i think that would be pretty cool, right now im overhauling most of my electricals, and i sure hate it, right now ive settled on the one wire at a time test, armed only with crimpers, connectors various wire and a power light tester pen gizmo, big fun, ive been taking it slow i admit, one wire a night!~!!! a section devoted to electrical would be great, cuz our cars, beautiful and fast as they may be, are very badly electrically assembled!!!!!!!
  3. the mesh ones are common at the jy find yourself a set, clean them and get them powder coated, should run you arount 200.00
  4. spacers can be scary, its best to come out the pockets on this expense, cuz its yo ass if they decide to bust on you, id go with the billet units strictly...if i could afford the rims after wards i would do it, but for now im sticking with these 15x7.5 enkeis
  5. the "normal" jag rearend is mounted like that? has the big half shafts and what not? hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, ive spotted a couple jags in the jy not far from me, sounds like it wouldnt be that hard, i know that jtr does make a kit for the v8 into a jag so i know it would take the power too.....
  6. i like them, i think people run 10.5 wide tires under those with 275's or something like that....they are nice, but the wheels are expensive once you get the space like that to fill.
  7. ps. i usually shift hard at 5600, but if im up against a close match, its 6400, and the 327 LOVES it up there....
  8. i run the best bang for my buck, and right now thats 5.4 OHV with the cam in the valley, and carberated, all ive done in 40,000 miles of driving and driving hard is tuneups and a valve job, and im grrrrrrrrrrrrrreat!
  9. whoa that was weird, waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnggggggggggggggggggggggggannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnoo midoniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiite!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (did i do that? )
  10. the solid mount fits both 180 and r200, they hold the diff tighter, with the downside being vibration, and one new thing that i have discovered is that if you launch hard and shift hard on a regular basis, this leads to the center crossmember breaking in half,ive had a lot of issues that i blame on the solid mount, it broke a mustache bar in two, snapped flange bolts, and cracked that above mentioned crossmember in half, new bar new bushings and a reinforced center crossmember and im back in there...
  11. waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnnnnngggggggggggonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmmmidonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnittttttttttttttttttttte!!!!!!
  12. i used to be a valet and had to park an 80 something mr2, had the seat pushed all the way back, maybe something blocking, but i swear my head was pushed up against the windshield!
  13. they use the jag rear end on some of those 427 cobra roadster kit cars i think.
  14. i think the t56 would work, hopefully it will bolt up....
  15. i like that motor a lot, but the costs outrule it.
  16. sorry, that puppy is a little far too gone, any one of those spots could be fixed, but all at once, wow! shouldnt be too hard to find a suitable body. ill sit down and be happy with my rusty floorpans now.
  17. if i were to use the 300zx hub, what size spacer would i need then??
  18. he went the expensive route too, could have got the same results with milk crates!!!!
  19. i thought they only need a 1/2 spacer if you use the 240 hubs?
  20. hey this new update thing is cool, but its jumping me in and out real quick on the reply i meant to say im probably going chevy hugger orange, with an orange metallic touch to it, with a slightly darker ghostflames, or type R yellow with the same deal, or maybe even HONDA championship white, i do want to finish on the paint and body before years end, the funny thing i help do body work and ive painted cars a lot this year, and i still have to do a lot to my own car, im gonna post flicks soon of the works ive helped make. im also still working out the bugs on this car and making junkyard dog runs to finish it up, i dont want to have to worry about paint on top of all that. but imma make this puppy CLEAN.
  21. get this book called jtr, its good(jaguars that run)
