I know but the wheels I have on there now arent exactly shabby either

And, I dont know, the Equip while it is awesome is almost in a way cliche and common.

Much to think about have I!

My valvetrain has cleared customs so I should have it any day now I think!

Haven't seen any for sale locally for a long while.

ive seen a few 7m manifolds cut and welded to be front facing, ive got a spare manifold, i might cut it open and see if its possible, i think these run 17" runners.

i just want to clean up the bay a bit and cut like 1.5M off my i/c piping...

unless anyone knows of a 1jz manifold going cheap? ive seen them spliced nicely with the runners from the 7m manifolds...

went to the gas motorsport dyno day today
very embarrassing/dissapointing :(

only 2 a70's were there and the winner was announced at the end with a increadibly dismal 130rwkw ( some of the a80 na's got a higher peak hp )

unfortunatly for me i didnt take my car down ( because iam trying to save money :p ) only to realise that by winning the a70 class the winner takes home $200 :eek:
so with my car putting out a consistant 200rwkw's or just over, i would of easily taken the money.
i hate my life :p

the highest single on the day (apart from the gas motorsport cars and mis52j) was mazman ( sf ) with 360 - 380 rwkw ( cant remember exactly )
so he wont the prize for biggest power output for a single turbo

would of freakin loved dan, or i think your above that power ij to be there to kick the 2j's ass, :p

Hahahaha!!!!!

I should have told you and got you to come up... Was a really great day!

The GAS cars are just insane!!! They ran up their Supra & MIS52J, The GAS Supe for 995.9kw & Jodi got 665kw on her first run on dirty fuel & fked plugs...

Have to say though that DJTees' supe made me embarrassed to own a MkIII :nono:
