  1. seeing how I own one of the slowest cars ever.. I'm quoting this for truth.
  2. lol I kinda giggled.. It may not be very fast compared to a v8 car, but it does look damn good.
  3. Ask him about maintanence done to the car, make sure he's up to date with everything.
  4. HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH, I just noticed that and laughed my ass off.
  5. No, you're right lol.. those engines make some serious power. Gotta love the engineering back in the 80's and early 90's. Anymore everyone just wants to slap a SC or Turbo on whatever car.. it just doesn't cut it for me. I'm all about the sweet sound of open throttles/carbs.. and raw NA power. But in reality it's much cheaper to get a power fix from a SC or Turbo.
  6. I linked a video with a good example of how my engine should sound for you people that aren't sure what dual Side Draft Carbs on a 4AG sound like. Again, the sound of NA and Carbs on these motors are rediculous.. and surely something to hear. I looked up the specs on his car and his build up is very similar to mine except he has a few little changes. They took it up to 9500rpm's simply because it wont make any more power above that with those cams but it'll easily hold up to 10k+ rpms. Ueo Katsuhiro in the D1 series has an almost identical Formula Atlantic build in his corolla and he's making power up to 12,500rpms.. If I can find a video of that i'll post. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5804122519147158991&q=hachi+roku His Setup: 82mm Piston Camshafts 300in, 290ex Jun Connecting rods TRD N2 Crank TRD 0.8mm Head Gasket FCR Carbs MSD 6AL Ignition Box Power: ~180rwhp Weight: ~1918lb My Setup: 81.5mm Piston Camshafts 304in, 288ex Stock ARP'd rods Balanced Crank TRD 0.5mm Head Gasket Weber 45mm DCOE carbs MSD 6AL Ignition Box Power: Aiming for ~190'ish hp Weight: Trying to get ~2000'ish
  7. Man, that makes my balls hurt just watching that.
  8. Annnnnnnd it still works... imagine that There's a reason for safe mode and it still does it's job.
  9. Oh, I already know DeVry sucks... hence the reason why I dropped out not even a year into it. I was in the Networking Systems Administration or NSA Cirriculum. Part of the cirriculum we learned to code and maintain on Cisco systems, and another part we had to learn ways people hack and bypass the systems that way we know where to look to prevent it.
  10. I would recommend booting your computer up in Safe-mode that way no other un-needed programs run in the backround and re-create files that you delete and run ad-aware, spybot, your Antivirus software whatever..
  11. I've got some from my securities class in Devry.. great stuff. PM me if you want them. They basically taught us how to hack that way we know how to prevent it

I had a delay of a few days because I didn't have access to an engine hoist. The same night I got my hoist I pulled the engine and tranny and got the two detached from eachother. Believe it or not this is my first time pulling any engine from any car so there's always a first for everything . The engine bay is filthy and will be meticulously cleaned out by yours truely. Also in the meantime of waiting for a hoist I decided to go on a search for some SS braided lines for my oil cooler, and repainted the cooler itself so it looks almost like new again. I plan on eliminated the heater core and all the heater lines and whatever else I can get rid of in the engine bay. As far as my parts go, I've recieved all of my ARP studs and my TRD .5 mm headgasket.. but everything else should be here VERY soon. As soon as it all comes in expect plenty of pictures. With my busy schedule I may not have time to take the block and head to get the work done this weekend(the 21st) but I may have to drive to cincinnatti sometime next week and get it done. Basically I just have to wait for my parts to get here and the work will come together VERY quickly. Keep checkin' back!
  17. who gives a fuck.. a processor is a processor. If you want to waste money on the fastest processor out there at the current time.. go right ahead. I just laugh at people who thinks having the newest this and fastest that is the best. The machine I built myself is stable as shit and does everything and anything I ever wanted.. There isn't even anything you can possibly do on a PC that would use the Intel Core's entire processing power.. it's just a waste of money. Same instance goes for the SLI video card shit.. there's not one game out there that requires THAT much processing power to use both card's full potential.. it really is a look-at-what-I-have type deal.

  19. I recommend staying with AMD since their processors are relatively cheaper than any equivalent Intel chip. I'm using an A7N8X Delux Motherboard with 1gig of RAM and a 2ghz processor and it does an amazing job with Video Editing and the like. Never had problems with any of my hardware. If you just want something faster just get a quicker AMD chip and update your MOBO and RAM if you have to..
  20. that's almost scary to think about.. I bet it was so hard for him to breathe at that altitude and imagine how SOL he would have been if he tried to jump out of the balloon and he wasn't falling.. instead he was slowly floating into outer space.
  21. And calling everybody a ricer is apparently still humorous too.
