Top ramnen and ceral is all your gonna find in my apartment. ;)


I love my subie. I've had it forever and the only thing I've done to it is replace the alternator and battery. The scooby doo makes owning the supra iin these tough times possible.

Hole in the wall food places are good, after one meal tho they clearly told me I ate rat. Wasn't too bad. I knew a guy who brought one of those big ass spiders back and let it loose at his parents place. Took a shotgun to stop it..

LOL

Believe me you would not apprciate it as much. The harder you work for something the more satisfying it is.

Incrementalism all the way! (Also less likely to blow up your world of supra that way. VERY difficult to trouble shoot a kazillion change points, as opposed to one or a few at a time.;))

BEST RAMEN PLACE in the MIDWEST!!!:thumbup:


http://local.yahoo.com/info-16199661-matsu-chan-restaurant-canton#reviews

http://www.worldramen.net/World/USA/Review/MatsuchanRamen.html


If you GOOGLE it, you will find lots more info on this tiny little shop with odd hours! When I walk in once in a blue moon, the "obasan" (I call her "oneisan"! Which is "SISTER" instead of "LADY", or a younger inference in Japanese!;)) she orders up my "usual" immediately without a moments hesitation! (Curry Ramen! MMMMMMMMMmmmMMMM! Comes WITH a bowl of rice to pour the "leftover" soup on, and have CURRY RICE, too!:icon_bigg)


Simply the best! (Maybe I have a vid clip or photo of the place!)


CANTON MICHIGAN. Not far from Detroit suburbs if anyone is ever around there!


Dang! That RAMEN talk got me all worked up!:biglaugh:

LOL! After the ramen post... I was so hungry for ramen... I made it tonight and posted the pics in my thread!;)




Not as good as Matsuchan's... but pretty good for instant, no less!

^^^ ALWAYS an empty bowl in our sink!:biglaugh:



Cap'n CRUNCH, COCO Puffs, Frosted Mini Wheats, Lucky Charms! (Tear my stomach UP when it's empty!:cry:), Sugar Smackin' Pops, Honey Nut Cheerio's, and the list goes ON and ON!


WPMO is how they CHANGED THE RECIPE on some of the GREATEST cereals from our childhood! Like Count Chocula... where they SCREWED UP the tiny (and CHALLENGING) marshmallows with the BIG BAT lookin' things... and the cereal itself became "puffy" like Barbie cereal, which SUCKS!:icon_evil


Pop Tarts also changed the dough or somethin'... cause it ain't what it used to be!


Now Twinkies, however... are forever! (I don't know if that's a GOOD thing...?)

Ok so I am in the middle of building the 1.5 jz, with mpt70 turbo. I have run into a road block called the economy. I'm not really in a "bad" way but I need to cut back somewhere. So here was my decsion.

I have a NA engine with a new composite headgasket. I have an extra set of weisco pistons, a turbo oild pump and my hks camshafts have not sold.

So I am going to freshen up this engine (can I install my gte oil squirters in the na block)
I am going to use all my 7m stuff, ecu, wiring,(gonna have to figure out a way to make the second knock sensor happy), my intake mani and throttle body, r154 spec twinn disc.....blah blah blah.

I'm going to do this so that I don't feel as pressed for time to buy parts and build this swap. The swap is still going to happen just over winter instead.

This will allow me to enjoy the car through summer and the rest of fall. Makes some meets, meet some people and enjoy the supra.



Cliffs: gonna stay 7m through the rest of the year swap 1.5 over winter. K THNAX BYE

thanks K.


wasnt an easy choice to make as i am very excited about the 1.5jz. but it was a choice i had to make. i work at a performance shop and people have really cut back on spending money on "toys" so i have to also. it will get done. its not like im 90 years old and on my death bed.


tonight im going to spec everything out and make sure my old motor is not a pile of shit. turbo chassis with an na-t.....silly
