If I'm thinking correctly a heavier car can be just as good or better around a track as a light weight car with the proper brakes, tires, suspension and so on. However, those modifications for heavier cars cost ALOT more money than for light weight cars. Hondas can buy 4 nice tires for cheaper...

people have but not many people road race so not many people need brake ducts. Same idea but then route the hose to a hub mounted duct (hole through the dust pan). http://www.timskelton.com/lightning/race_prep/brakes/cooling_ducts.htm

Run a high flow cat on the street. It's not like you need every last horsepower driving to work. When you are going to run on the track than you can swap in your test pipe. Don't drive on the street without a cat. If you do I hope you get caught.

You can measure the block for warping. Also, since you are getting the head machined you will want a larger HG, probably 2.0mm to keep compression close to stock.

In California its gotta be 1975 model year or earlier to be smog exempt. Next car out of college: 1972 Corvette.

If you have the money get it, especially if you are going to track your car. I'm looking into getting the 3qt unit, but I probably wont get it for a while.

weight = luxury, stability, safety, too bad about the drawbacks

AWESOME!

You don't need a BBK on the street. if you have lots of horsepower and you are fading high quality pads on the street than you are driving way too hard and you probably will get a ticket eventually.

If you do it than no one will buy your car off ebay in 2 years.

90% Most 7M engines are the original engines that have been in the car for 20 years. 90% of most 1JZ engines are imported and completely rebuilt. No doubt the 1JZ is a newer design and probably less prone to faults, but, you have to understand why everyone has problems with the 7M and why the...

If you want a cheap drag car get a Mustang 5.0. They are light, cheap, reliable, adn you can get into the 12s with slicks and a minimum amount of mods. Plus, if you get one in good condition it should look really nice as well. No shit talking about Mustangs. Last time i went to Fontana for...

Everyone bags on open wastegate but no one complains about straight through exhaust with no cat or resonator?

2JZ block + 1JZ head = still a 2JZ 1JZ + custom crank/rods/piston stroker kit to 3.0L = still a 1JZ EDIT: about the deck height argument: the 1JZ does not NEED the extra deck height. It might need it to get to a certain displacement, but why does it have to have that certain displacement anyways?

I play StarCraft and read forums for $10 an hour. I haven't done any real work in the past 3 weeks. My coworker went 5 weeks without doing anything once. If I don't show up I still get paid, but I try to be on time so that I don't feel guilty. As a student, its hard to beat the flexibility...

if you disconnect the 3 bolts holding the downpipe to the turbo elbow than you can disconnect the elbow and than take the turbo off.

well, the emanage wont eliminate the afm like maft pro will

Wait, did I miss the pictures or did no MKIs show up. I looove the really clean ones!

well, unless the dealership told you that everything was covered it seems that that notice up there states that youwill have to pay for all the extras (refill, new lines, etc).
