...seeing as how tim now has 5997 posts, do we have to sing to him when he hits 6000?

all i'm wondering is if he ever found the picture.

bartenders and pharmacists!

way too boxy. i like my cars to have curves.

good, i'm not the only one thinking nissan should have hired that designer instead.

i'll never look at a monte carlo the same way again. :

cozy... anyone who mentions nader in a discussion about presidency is as far from serious as it gets...

97th annual Green Party National Convention 9:35...sound of crickets 12:00... Nader trips over tumbleweed 2:00... ah, i'll stop wasting my time on the Green Party. Bong hits with Bill and Willie Nelson.

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!! here's another one... 16-yr old virgin boy walks into a drugstore. he paces up and down the aisles for a half-hour before he's approached by the pharmacist. "can i help you, son?" "well see, sir, it's like this. this girl i know just told me she really... wants to...and, um, i'm going to dinner at her house tonight. so, i," "condoms? up front by the ...." so, later on, trojans in hand, he walks into his girlfriend's house. they sit down to dinner and begin to say grace. long after the prayer is finished, he still has his head bowed in his hands and is praying like the pope himself. his girlfriend leans over to him..."i had no idea you were so religious." "well, thanks for telling me your dad's a phamacist!!!!!"

no offense taken man... i've been taking it into account and not pounding it too much, but sometimes you just have to, y'know? :malebitchslap: safety precautions (boost gauge, i/c, etc) are the first things i'm planning for the car!

oh trust me bastaad.... boost controller #1 on bob's priority list! just have to clear it with the wife... or maybe she'll never know! taking it pretty much easy till it's in... just gets too tempting sometimes!

they really aren't as fast as they should be... if he only knew i beat him for a tenth the asking price! i just got it, so i haven't started modding it yet. the only thing done to the stock L28et is the boost controller, and since i haven't gotten a boost gauge in it yet i really don't know where it's dialed... i'm under the impression that it wasn't installed to be left alone, so i'm safe to assume slightly more than stock boost. it has a 280z 5-spd and the ratios in that box seem perfect for the engine. never seems to drop it below the powerband. the first step is to find out how much boost i'm running... the next ones involve making it handle more!

had a nice drive home from shipping out my extra turbo yesterday...... traffic was the usual warzone on 9W (new yorkers?) so in the course of cutting around the backway, came up to a red-light next to a nice shiny black 350z. about 40-ish owner, car's dead stock, but seems he had about as much interest in getting to the merge first as i did. so..., hmm, could i actually take him? only one way to find out! he got off on me pretty good... that car has an assload of torque! i launched pretty well, by the end of first gear i was about even...(turbo 1, torque 1) second gear lands me right at boost, nudge a fender, door, he looks pissed! i was about to hit third when he let off. MY LANE!!!!! :malebitchslap: wow. honestly, i thought he was gonna kill me.

little punk's gonna feel that for a month!

for anyone who doesn't know yet, yasin's the man... afshin also pm'ed me and after hearing about his setup and looking at juan (jsk)'s car tonight, i think that's the way i'm setting mine up too. it just seems to me that air would flow so much better without the restriction from all the bends. and now that i'm starting to sell off my pile of parts, (yeah, the ones i keep forgetting to post here... ) i can actually do it. thanks for all the help!!!...bob

if you like the crossfire, hold out a bit. the srt-6 version will have a supercharged benz 6. given the money... i'd buy one!

right up there with "the bunghole".... a liquor store in salem, mass. http://www.bungholeliquors.com/

he's got that covered, too... see those nyc-extra large size-pizza pan-sized brake rotors? or are they polished manhole covers?

please do!

never been smoked in... but how many bags of herbs were harmed in the making of that... um... hmm...

to funny!!! but too true regardless. it really is a disease!

thanks 'dude! i'll look through some of his old posts to see if i can come up with anything too!

hey guys... the time has come to put in the intercooler that came with my car. it's a supra tt i/c, what i was wondering was has anyone on here ever used one? i'm wondering if it's better to run all the piping on the driver's side or loop it around the front of the engine? the biggest obstacle to coming across is the fan/shroud... i have an electric fan to install but the cooling system i have now is doing a great job keeping the car cool and i don't know if i want to mess with that. but then again... if the electric fan could result in a little more power from not forcing the engine to spin a fan... thoughts? suggestions?

nice tim! and i didn't even have to blow your secret!!! and even better, you're keeping the goose!!!!
