    suspension problem?

    Yep, I've had it hit the locks, and make some noise before. When I was running MK4 TT wheels, it did it the most. These that I have now, must have more offset slightly, as they do not rub the sidewall, rim when I hit the locks. (I think from the marks, it was hitting the clip on wheel...

    400rwhp electric bike + goober = DoH!

    I'm curious. How long does it take to "refuel" this bike between runs? It is fast. It is dangerous. But is it practical? I'm sure the work on the motor is less than a piston driven bike, but what about the battery life? These batteries are supposed to be pretty innovative. Wonder when I can...

    The (old) Official Gun Thread.

    20k for any full auto machine gun is nuts. And there are PLENTY of them out there for more than that even. About the lowest cost full auto machine gun I've seen is in the 5K range, and that's for a POS Uzi machine pistol, or some worn out MAC10's. (Not bad weapons, but not very accurate...

    need computer help!!

    Try a reboot, then put the SD carb back in, and see if it finds it. Short of that, go to my pictures in my documents, and find it there. (Should be listed as a drive option.) Good luck. My multi drive has the "g" drive as the SD slot, in the many cards o dapter.

    400rwhp electric bike + goober = DoH!

    I like mine that runs on regular unleaded. :) Not quite as fast, but it does take about 3.5 gallons of gas to fill it up. Does nearly 40mpg fuel economy, and has a top speed in the 150+ range. (I've only seen 136mph indicated, but there are a few who claim 168mph verified on GPS.) Oh, and...

    Where is the MKV supra thread?

    I hope they build it, no matter what they call it. Then again, if Toyota really wanted to screw up the domestic market, they should make the following vehicles. 1) RWD and AWD "Avalon" sized cars. Put the 5.7V8 into it, and make the RWD car base price the same as the current Avalon. Charge...

    Electric Supercharger

    For what they are asking, a competent person could build themselves a turbo setup and the piggyback fuel computer to make it work. Just a thought. :) Especially with the Ebay/China knock-off manifolds and Masterpower turbo's out there for great prices.

    The (old) Official Gun Thread.

    There were a few for sale at Sportsman's Whorehouse last week. I think Impact Guns has them too. Here ya go... http://www.impactguns.com/store/T1SB.html But, if you want full auto, you get to pay, and pay some more... http://www.impactguns.com/store/MGT-S-499168.html Expensive eh? LOL

    Better way to work under your car

    Years ago, we built a "spit" for cars. You bolt up the impact bars to the ends, and you can rotate the whole car 360 if you want. But, not a good idea to have the engine and stuff in there.. It was for complete restorations, on cars with the engine/trans/interior out of them. On another...

    1987 chrysler conquest

    I liked them when they were new, and test drove one then, almost bought it actually. (It was 16k new..IIRC.) My brother had a perfect red one. It even still had the radio/HVAC controls in good shape. (If you know about these cars, those tend to wear out pretty quickly, and look like shit in a...

    Turbo oil filter ideas (to filter the turbo feed)

    I was tempted to oil my turbo off the "exit" of the Autoguard bypass filter... But I was not sure of how much flow comes out of that bypass setup, so I did not do it that way. I use that same Canton filter for all my engine oil. The bypass is fed off the filtered oil from the main galley...

    I Hate Auto Registration Offices

    Vehicle registration here is not that bad, but the Ada County Air Quality Board SUCKS ASS. Over 10 years ago, the smog here in Boise was pretty bad. The Feds mandated via the EPA that testing of all vehicles was required if the County wanted any Federal money... So the ACAQB was born...

    The (old) Official Gun Thread.

    For an autoloading machine gun, that group at 50 yards in the 1/2" hole is more than pretty good. It's dang good. :) If I could only have one weapon, that would be my choice. Dead nuts reliable, and accurate to ranges that sniper rifles drool at. :) All in an assult rifle. Not too...

    cam suggestions

    Yep, you don't want to tighten up the belt too much, that's for sure. I'm not sure there is babbit on the cams, but your right that most people freak out over any scoring on the cam journals when they don't need to. The cam saddles/bearings are just machined alluminum of the head. Nothing...

    Piston Protrusion

    Time to buy a thicker metal headgasket. :) Talk to your machine shop. Make sure the MHG has the proper bore size for your pistons too. Many are 83mm, and the gasket will catch the piston, causing problems. There are limits to how much can be removed from the deck too. Check the TSRM, I...
