    Building a new desktop PC, what do ya'll think?

    Most people don't. I don't know anyone who has an SLI / crossfire setup that would buy another one.

    Look whats for sale.

    Wait... let me work this out. Guy takes decent back end of Supra off, replaces it with wobbly plastic POS from Corvette. What was he thinking? Where's the profit?

    Type A rare car?????? Anyone heard of this????

    There were only 11 Group A cars made, so ya, that's pretty damn unlikely. Probably a Turbo A car, there were 500 of those.

    Possibly silly question for someone over the pond...

    Interesting. Here, they paint the curb yellow, which means you can't park there. And every stop sign has small print on it that says you can't park withing X meters / feet. Anything else is covered using signs. I suspect that the zig zag lines method is probably cheaper.

    Possibly silly question for someone over the pond...

    I've been watching a fair bit of Top Gear recently, and all the footage of British roads has made me wonder. What is with the crooked lines between lanes? Are all the line painters horribly drunk?

    Building a new desktop PC, what do ya'll think?

    Looks like Nvidia has dropped the pricing on their 460 since I picked up my last ATI card, so they are pretty much neck and neck now on $$$ / performance. Gotta love it when there is decent competition between two big companies... we win. And don't get me wrong, I'm not saying Gigabyte...

    Building a new desktop PC, what do ya'll think?

    Hmm... couple things. I've recently switched to ATI for video, seems they've pulled ahead on the price vs performance battle with NVidia. I've also been sticking with intel processors for the last while, although I haven't gone through the work of researching which is better in the last year...

    HID Bulbs & Headlight Housing

    That's a great idea! I've been building molds to make fiberglass covers for the back, but I think I'll ditch that idea in favor of tape. There's some crazy tough tape that works in huge temp ranges. Never even thought of that! Thanks!

    HID Bulbs & Headlight Housing

    Any tips on how you waterproofed the projectors?

    Installed EGR...Interesting Effect on EGT

    No... you've left out the fact that the JDM ecus are specifically coded to run without it on that level of fuel. Without the JDM ecu, you're missing a critical part of the puzzle.

    Hasn't happened yet... the parts are all still sitting on the shelf, gathering dust.

    Nashman runs one of these, drop him a PM and ask.

    will a LHD heater core fit a RHD?

    I was certain it would not... however, some serious digging in the parts catalog appears to turn up only a single part number, so I suspect you may be lucky.

    has anyone had good success from an alternate to Dynamat?

    I've used quite a few alternatives over the years, they all seem to work about the same. Even used some thick roofing material at one point, some kind of tar impregnated paper that we glued on with spray adhesive. That worked well too. All you're doing is adding mass, the fact that it's...

    open loop

    No, there is no way to do this. Even in open loop, it still uses the vast majority of the sensors.

    Cell phone in 1928?

    I figured as much... I am still giggling about people on the internet arguing about which time travel theory is correct, given that there isn't any hard evidence one way or another yet.

    7matt's WTF am i doing?! BUILD

    Inspected first, then machined... sucks to spend lots of $$$ in machinework just to find the head is annealed and won't hold exhaust studs for love or money. Especially when a hardness test takes seconds, not minutes, and most shops will do it for free.

    He did say: There are plenty of alternative theories to the alternative reality idea.
