  1. So, I have had no luck contacting Les. Is there anyway I could employ someone to give him a call and ask him to check his messages on classiczcar.com or maybe even here if he has an account? Being deployed sucks sometimes The hood looks great Nigel! Hopefully my car looks that nice when I get back.
  2. That piece really makes me consider a G-Nose again. Maybe down the road, lemme see how well I can tear up the current airdamn .
  3. Sorry missed it, was to excited to see someone recreating it. I sent him a message on classiczcar.
  4. That looks really good. I'll see if I can find him. Got a link to a forum post?
  5. Crud can't edit from my phone. What about the other books by Mr. Smith?
  6. I'm not finding Driving Faster. Is it perhaps Going Faster? Do you have an author?
  7. I'm about to deploy again and am looking for reading material. I'd like for it to be driver based (IE: self improvement). I'm also looking for aero and suspension related reading but I need for it to be in depth and understandable. I'm the kind of person that will not sleep untill I feel that I have mastered something (I just stayed up till 3am this weekend study turbo's, from basic to advanced). If you have any recomendations, I'm open to them. On a side note Competition Car Aerodynamics: A Practical Handbook is coming out as a second edition. Has anyone used to looked at it. Worth looking at? On the turbo thing. I'm working on a turbo efficiency spread sheet so I don't have to keep doing the long division. It's currently SR20DET based. Would anyone like me to modify it for another motor? If so, which ones? Maybe I'll make it so it'll graph over existing compressor maps in the future...
  8. No it is not necessary. Most do it because they're looking for a turbo bigger then will fit in the stock location. Though I've seen T2 flanged 30 series turbo bottom mounted
  9. I prefer the N1's myself but the HKS Hi Power Ti with the burnt tips peaks my interrest
  10. Lemme look around Oahu, there's a few being parted out that I know of.
  11. If you can hear the pump running its the FPR. Even getting it new there's no telling how long it sat and in what conditions, the diaphram is prolly toast. Either way it only takes 5-10 mins to pull it apart and check. Edit: That exhaust plumbing is crazy! Is it staying like that?
  12. Your local Home Depot prolly does monthly, if not weekly seminars on basic home repairs and what not. I went to a couple to see if they had anything for me that I hadn't already known. They were great for my wife (made her a safety brat), not so much for me, but a great free hands on experiance.
  13. I have "silver" suede in the Audi. I swear by the regular Mr. Clean Magic Erasers.
  14. I know a lot of people just switch to their high beams instead of replacing their bulbs. It pisses me off but my Audi has 110W high beams, I love to play the game
  15. There wouldn't be an akward silence for me, I'd be to busy laughing on the floor. I dont mind the sport, I can't stand the fact that professional athletes are payed so much.
  16. LOL and the fact that she managed to mess it up!
  17. There's been a Top Gear marathon on all weekend. Dont think I even know where the remote is now...
  18. It'd be pretty crappy fitment. I'm sure you could find a better fitment but not at that price.
  19. Which manifold are you using? There still seems to be the whole what fits issue. I'd like the twin scroll but if I have to go ramhorn so be it.
  20. I'd like to see the aftermath caused to the engine. Looks like a piston laying on the track afterwards.
  21. I've decided to go with a smaller cowl hood and cut the sides like this. It would keep the hoods flow that way I think. After looking at more pictures it looks kinda cheap being slapped on with a gasket underneth.
  22. After living in Hawaii for a while I'm kind of missing weather like that. I'd be up on that roof with a sled and a death wish
  23. Theres a report button at the bottom, that's as close as I think we can get.
  24. Let us know how you like the GTX I'm sort of interrested in it compaired to other turbines.
