Saw the title of this and thought, "No way, impossible." Saw the video and thought, "Ouch!" :nws:http://hidebehind.com/429BF7 :nws: EDIT: fixed link

damn.. They should just sell the core of the gun and let you roll your own.

Hit up Best Buy or any appliance store, they shouldh ave the right cord. New dryers don'e come with power cords for this reason. (Well, I think it's an exscuse to get an add-on sale rather than include one of each w/ the dryer.)

*nod* I believe Thorne currently has a VF39 in his bugeye.

Bugeyes were only 02-03. Stock turbos had internal WGs. I'm not familiar with the 60-trim compared to, say a 20G, so I'm not sure exactly what will be needed. However, if it's much bigger than stock, you'll want an upgraded fuel pump (walboro 255) and injectors. If it's a big turbo and you're going to be pumping a lot of fuel, you may want to look into new fuel rails. The stock rails are a serial design, so the last cylinder can go lean under certain conditions. A parallel arrangement is preferable for high fuel needs. If that turbo is bigger than a 20G, it's going to be strangled by the stock TMIC. A FMIC is reccomended once you go with a big (and hot) snail. ANd if you go FMIC, you'll need an Intake. The stock aribox is good for up to 350-400awhp, but the FMIC piping usualy requires an intake. And as long as you're digging in there, you might want to research the TGV delete mod. Your buddy WILL grenade his tranny eventually. The WRX tranny is just able to handle the stock power. Much more and you'll turn it into confetti, ask Thorne.

Yes, but just 1/4cup or whatever in the intake is not going to hydroclock the engine. Enough water has to get there without becoming droplets for this to happen. It would take a hell of a lot more. It's like saying you can drown in 6 inches of water. True, but the circumstances have to be just right, and likely there are other factors involved. If air is allowed into the intake path, it'll flow around the water and allow it to pool or run out. The speed and volume of the air will likely turn the water into droplets which won't hurt the engine. Not that it matters, all that water and my airfilter was still bone dry. And I'm not running the silencer and snorkus. The last guy that crossed soaked his K&N, but he had a short ram which has no protection. Luckily the guy taking the video happened to have another filter in his car.

Naw, there wasn't enough water to do that. Maybe some wetness, but you'd have to fill the entire airbox, intake piping, and intercooler before you'd get water into the manifold. ANd if the sucton ever broke, it'd drain out.

Yup, like magic. I was using a plastic plate bracket from Advance so I could relocate the plate higher and keep it out of the airflow to the radiator. But the water just snapped it right off. I haven't decided if I'm goin to go that route again or toe the line and do the Euro-style plate mod.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZVDO7p6eO0 Watch the second car. ... Yes, that's my bugeye. We didn't notice that the plate was missing until a hour or two later. I thought I had bounced it off on some rough roads, but it turns out we managed to get it on video.

At the rate we're going as of this post, this will take us about 35 years, 2 months. Guess we better pick up the pace. http://www.londonbusroutes.net/photos/JPEGs/263-tp428.jpg

Mythbuster would be really cool. Pro Rally driver. I'd like to be the owner of the shop in Unique Whips. He gets a TV show and rich people shoving their money into his pockets for being an overglorified stereo/tint installer. I wish I could BS like that. Do simple stuff in-house and farm out anything beyond a simple body mod or stereo install to a shop that actually does work. A big mod for that shop is rims, and they don't even make them. Even OCC makes their own rims. Host of Top Gear. I'll take Richard Hammond's spot and leave the british humor to Jeremy Clarkson. And the #1 best job in the world: Lottery Winner!

Very Nice I wonder if it's RWD or AWD. The SKylines in the past have had RWD variants, but the new GTR only comes in AWD. I wonder if there's homologation issues if it's RWD.

Bah, you had two already. Or should I just assume by your name that you'll triple post? http://www.petermarsh.freeuk.com/stockcar/238lesmitchell-tn.jpg

Gods.. Ego-centric people like that just piss me off. What happened to the days when someone was being a stupid PITA, you could tell them so and they either stopped or were beaten? Darwin must be rolling in his grave.

Definately something going on with the board then. My 213 and TripleThreat's were posted at identical times. My 216 was clearly posted properly when the page loaded after Submit. I reload the thread before and after every post to make sure I have the last post and that my picture loads. And the quoted picture is just a red X to me. Even with a clean page reload. http://www.seoski-turizam.net/mercedes/mercedes-wallpapers/mercedes-slk-230.jpg

Have you ever logged into one of your favorite forums (i.e. CR) and see this icon (http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/images/statusicon/thread_dot_new.gif) next to some oddball thread and think "WTF did I possibly have to add to that thread?" It seems to be happening a lot to me lately. I'm either getting older or my inner postwhore is getting stronger..

Lol

Damn, and I thought I was big pimpin'. 24" LCD Widescreen for one PC, the other is hooked into my 65" DLP TV.

The plane's takeoff speed was 25. Considering a Truck can accelerate faster than a plane to 25mph, the treadmill was actually going faster than the plane. It still took off, which kills the arguments about the plane's speed vs treadmill. I think one problem that people are having is that they INTERPRETED the question to mean that the plane would be held stationary as part of the experiment. Unfortunately, that's wrong. The components of the experiment were: 1 Plane in takeoff procedure, 1 Treadmill acting in opposition to the plane's forward movement. That's it. You cannot interpret or apply meaning to an experiment or you skew the results. You have to run the test as designed. I'm sure peopel will start saying they should have kept the plane stationary, but that's not how the question was worded. If you try to keep the plane stationary, you're applying your interpretation to the question and FORCING the results to conform to your preconceptions. That is NOT science, it's politics.
