  1. That wasnt the exact brand I was thinking of, but yes, that is a real one. I have that issue of Turbo somewhere.....
  2. Something tells me that my 3000+ and my 9800 Pro will choke and die on this game....
  3. I was there for the last hour and a half of the event and the Trophy Presentation. I was sitting next to my friend Sean who won C Mod, along with his dad and clbsinvaders. I didnt get to go to the entire even because yesterday was the 3rd anniversary of my dad's death and I had to go to church because the mass was dedicated to him. Sucked really, cause it took half the day.
  4. New Plan: I am going to win the lottery, buy 2 20b's, mill a custom excentric shaft and make a 4 rotor quad turbo |,,|, ,|,,| lol just kidding
  5. Holy hell, I would have been all over that! Thanks for trying though, man.
  6. Many programs can play DVD's, its the Decoder that you have to pay for. Unfortunately, I dont know of any free decoders.
  7. I havent ruled out the rotary option yet, just trying to brainstorm ideas. My main argument is price. As far as I can tell, it would cost a lot more for me to squeeze power out of the existing 13b than it would be to just put another engine in it. You can blame this on greedy tuner companies. "You know you own an RX-7 if you've taken apart and put back together your entire engine and still dont know what a valve is." <- clbsinvaders told me that joke Edit: Tinman - Yeah, the guy who built the above car didnt seem to have much trouble with all of the wiring. He just put the V8's ECU where the Mazda one used to be, and he wired up everything else with little trouble.
  8. I have never heard of those, but I know the real electric superchargers work.
  9. I am not a big FB fan. I think they are cool and everything, I just wouldnt want to own one. The FC is a car I can see myself driving every day, and not looking like I only spent a grand on it. I am going to keep shopping, though. If any of you guys could let me know if you find any FC's that are in good shape and are cheap and at least will run until I get all the parts together for a swap, that would be great. Eric: What about buying a carbed engine first, then buing one of those EFI conversion kits?
  10. lol literally not more than 10 seconds before having refreshed this thread, I loaded up Torquecentral, having read about it on that cardomain page.
  11. What do you guys think is more expensive generally, an LS1 or an LT1? Because the guy in the above link used an LT1/t56 combo. I wouldnt really want a carbed engine due to fuel economy. There are also the Ford swaps, but I heard those were harder. Not sure if that is true or not. I am not really partial to Chevy or Ford.
  12. This is the actual car: http://columbus.craigslist.org/car/206096155.html As you can see, he doesnt give much input into what is actually wrong with it. I was messing around with it on Google when I found this: http://www.cardomain.com/ride/641869 This guy really inspired me to start thinking about a V8 swap. Like that dude, I have nothing against the rotary engine, but I am all for something different. I have seen all sorts of swaps into these things, and this seems like it is the most fun and cost effective of all of them.
  13. Ill be there, I missed the last few events.
  14. There is an FC for sale on craigslist that I have been looking at. The guy says it "needs a new engine", which I took to mean that it must have a blown apex seal or something. If I were to buy it, should I A.) Fix the engine in it or B.) Swap in a V8. And if its the V8 option, how hard is it to do?
  15. I am only saying this because I put a shit ton of my time and energy into a project he wanted to do, and after all of that I am just trash. It really just pisses me off.
  16. I dont care if he doesnt want to hang out with me, Its the fact that he wont speak to me that is what REALLY makes me pissed off.
  17. rant I knew this kid, or I though I knew him anyway, who I concidered to be one of my closest friends. We have known each other for quite a few years. He all of a sudden one day, cuts all forms of communication with me and disavows all knowledge of my existance. In addition, decides to take some of his friends and turn them on me. So now I have been getting phone calls from them about stupid shit that isnt even true. This has hurt me like you have no idea. You would think that a real man would even have the balls to say what their beef is with me, and confront the situation, but no. Its kind of sad, really. Its had to believe that some people have to act that way. This person and I have been through a lot, and it seems as though everything that we went through, everything we've done together, all the walls we have climbed, all of the problems we have tackled, dont even matter. /rant
  18. the full name of Bawls is Bawls Guarana High Caffine Energy Soda. just some trivia.
  19. you can race the olds. Ill loose by 150 lenghts, though
  20. BAWLS is the best, by far. Although I cant really drink it anymore because I quit drinking regular pop. They have Guranexx, the sugar free stuff, but it doesnt taste very good to me.
