Not quite. You get a certain number of days per season.
^^ thanks guys. The car has been out at a couple shows locally and the owner even drove it to Vancouver Driven.
Shoot me a PM with what you have in mind
I don't know how the timing map...
^^ I did not know they were so rare either haha. Sure learned a lot about the car in the past year.
Reportedly higher output although I haven't tested this personally - they are also happy...
Thanks! Greddy install is next:

The Nismo unit proved its worth though, all 6 plugs were visibly identical after a half day of flogging on...
While we were waiting for the rest of the parts, the car came out to the I'll motion show:

Hey all, just sifting through some pictures and thought I'd share. Over the past couple months I've been fortunate enough to work with the owner of...
If he is as knowledgable as you think and chooses to explain tire dynamics to you with Coulomb's formula, that certainly says a lot about how he percieves you.
I never said anything about the...
Who knows, who cares. Nothing to take seriously either way. Sounds like he works with some interesting guys, too bad he is the one posting here.
How cute. If you had read and understood even the first chapters of the book you wouldn't be regurtiating what your tire salesman told you. Doorstop? Hilarious. I suppose that could be true in a...
Wouldn't it be nice if the behaviour of a tire were fully described by a single variable equation? Turn your googling skills to "limitations of Coulomb friction model" and use your sick bonus to buy...
Have a couple sets of universal canards left over from some promo stuff earlier in the year. Canards are all made in Japan and high quality.
I have one set of each of the following:
Type 2:...
Small update, had a medium strength thrash to get the car up and driving to illmotion sunday school. I simply haven't had the time to get this thing back at 100% this summer but as of last week it's...
Good race, would have been nice to see Alonso go to the end. Pretty bummed that Alonso's engine let go but at least he got to enjoy a competitive powerplant for once. Unlike F1, at least he got to...
car as it sits:

started working on the wiring. For pretty much everything, I'm using M22759/32 wire. It's pretty high quality stuff and helps keep down the...
^^ Thanks. My friend grabbed a video of the pass. Car in the right lane is a longtube ZR1.

Some parts started to arrive so thought I'd share some progress. The main goal this...
^^ Same. Flaked off my turbine housing after some dyno and track time. If it's going to be coated, Swaintech or Zircotec for me
Selling my PFC ZR22 and ZR24 motorsport calipers. Great shape, come with a set of near new PFC01 compound pads. Can get details and images for serious buyers. $2000 firm Would prefer to sell...
I'd be really, really surprised if it was exclusively HCCI. It only works in very specific combustion temperature, pressure, and engine speed ranges. There has been a ton of effort in the past...
oh jeez don't do that haha
It does? Kind of a shit old solution. In the first post you said it has finger followers?
^^ thanks Jimmy
Thanks! I think I remember your FD from back in the day haha... silver LHD with a carbon hood and lip right? I think I remember some of the issues you went through. Sucks,...
Thanks for the kind words guys. I should have some decent updates as parts start to roll in for winter upgrades.
Pretty sure you're the dude that left an unconscious woman at the side of the road in a wrecked car and tried to defend it? What on earth are you doing here commenting on the decision making...
EK, Nick, Mike - thanks guys the kind words mean a lot coming from you guys.
Thanks haha! Sadly not that :bigpimp: though... I was visiting Scoot and started talking suspension with him so...
Thanks for the kind word guys
Thanks! Haha yeah the 3 piece OE seal choice has raised some eyebrows for sure. Works well for myself and some other local high power 13bs though ;)
Had a bit of a break between track days so I installed a ProEFI 128 purchased from blackbirdts.com Car was up and running that weekend in time for the illmotion show and shine. ...
So I guess that brings us to the end of last year. After the drag racing and lapping day, I decided to re-make my exhaust. Too loud with the screamer pipe haha.
Good thing I did. Found this in...
Engine bay done. You can also see the coolant overflow I made in the back corner of the engine bay.

I think the first thing I did was take the engine out and rip it apart. Felt like a bit of a waste as the engine had about 1100km on it at that point but hey had to be done. After studying the port...
Between buying the car and that point, I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to learn from some very knowledgeable rotary people. A lot of learning, research, disassembly and study of multiple...
A bit overdue at this point as the car is more or less complete. I was compiling pictures from my past 3 phones and figured I'd post up some of the stuff I found.
This post will contain the...
The early boxsters (up to '03) had a plastic rear window as well
why does it have to be more expensive ? Pontiac Fiero ,Toyota MR2 , Fiat X1/9, Porsche 914, Lancia Monte Carlo were all affordable mid engine sports cars
Perhaps you should clarify your post. I don't think anyone misread what you said:
"There's at least a couple grand of wiggle room in a $21,000 car in my experience, probably more. The dealer...
This isn't San Francisco, lane splitting here isn't going to reduce shit. Its just a lame excuse for the tiny percent of motorcyclists arrogant enough to actually do it to skip traffic.
You tell 'em EJ 2.0!

I don't feel that either tax is appropriate, but if I were to choose I'd take the blanket tax and I'll explain my personal reasoning.
A few months ago I decided to stop eating out 2-3x carefree...
