    70 MPH Freeway burnout

    Your right IJ, when your in the Z your butt is less than 12 inches forward of the rear axle and after watching the video I couldn't believe I wasn't more sideways than I was. Watch the last video, notice the existing burnout marks I roll over at the end of the burnout I am doing. I was so...

    Supra crash...

    Its so so sad you can see it in the cops response, the first cop to look in the vehicle takes one look and goes for the criminal. For a few days I have seen stills, but not until now did I see that this was an outright homicide. I have been the victim of a head on collision I had 5...

    Cooling at Highway Speed

    Once I was riding with a friend and there was one of those tissue thin plastic grocery bags just floating thru the wind dodging ever car on the freeway, it lofted our way and went straight at the grill, I wasn't driving so I didn't bother to look in the mirror to see if it came out. In about a...

    Cooling at Highway Speed

    Tons of people buy electric fans based on the CFM, I never see those fan companies state at WHAT inches of mercury this alleged CFM is produced. The facts are there is resistance thru any heat exchanger and unless you have actually done the tests on your fan, I would never believe the CFM...

    Front spindle with out ABS

    We are talking about a factory MKIII Supra Caliper vs. the AZP Wilwood brake kit. Your right the piston volume, the swept area of the rotor, the rotor diameter, the caliper design and the ridgity of the caliper body have nothing to do with it.:rolleyes: The MKIII Supra has a floating caliper...

    Front spindle with out ABS

    I think the exact same thing. I think the whole ABS system works better with my brakes because the ABS dosent have as much hysteresis induced by the caliper body flexing, the floating caliper sliders moving and the brake lines expanding. All these things happen with each system and with each...

    Front spindle with out ABS

    Dan is 100% correct, The ABS only does something if you lock up a wheel. It really is damn near perfect. Think of it this way, if your ABS already works, put the car together with functional ABS do some track days and see if it doesn't do everything you wanted. You can always pull the fuse...

    Matts Sorry to stalk you, but I will see if I can find a couple of my customers that can answer your questions, about whether you want to ditch the ABS. The short answer to your question is YES you can install a spindle from a non ABS vehicle. Yes you can ditch all the ABS on the...
