Hello everyone, I'm Randall S, otherwise known as "Captain Panic"

 

Not really sure what all info you're looking for so I'll start with what I've got on the road:

 

1986 Toyota MR2:

This car has been my best friend, and worst enemy at the same time.

 

List of mods, if you're interested:

 

Short ram air intake

ported and polished head

bore .040" over

268 cams

lightweight flywheel

RS*R header

2.25" exhaust

high flow cat

factory muffler from my '93 MR2

Enkei RPF1's w/ Azenis RT615

full polyurethane bushings, including motor mounts

Suspension Techniques lowering springs and swaybars

Koni yellows

Quaife quick ratio steering rack

TRD stage 1 alignment

 

 

All this crap and it's only dyno'd at 112whp, and 92Lb/ft of torque. FML

 

 

Yes, I know it's slow, you don't have to tell me.

 

 

On to the next one:

 

1993 MR2 Turbo

 

This car was a gift from my GF for a lot of things. It's pretty much stock except for the wheels, intake, and the grapefruit launcher exhaust.

It's not really boosting right, so driving it is... meh.

 

 

And lastly:

 

 

1971 Datsun 240Z

 

This car is all stock. I wouldn't have it any other way. Why screw up a classic? Though it is for sale if YOU want to screw up a classic.

Over all, I hate rice. I don't even really like 4 cylinders. I can respect all the hard work, time, and money that go into a good build though, no matter what the make/model is. Oh, and I am the author of the "wing ad" on craigslist http://columbus.craigslist.org/pts/1984170808.html. Yes, it's supposed to be stupid, and I hope you had as much fun reading it as I had writing it.

 

 

So there you go. Flame away. Just make it funny. I would do the same for you.

Oh, and the reason for building the engine in the '86:

On an n/a. Go big or go home, right? The machine shop had to bore it .030" over to get the cylinder trued. They could only get pistons in twenty thousandths increments, hence the .040" overbore.

Good intro, clean cars (not ricer shit), welcome.

 

Thank you, I appreciate it!

 

 

Hi Randy, great intro and welcome to the board!

 

LOLZ at the wing thread, even funnier now that I know you wrote it haha!

 

Haha! Yeah, my gf didn't get it, but I knew others would! I was sick of it taking up closet space. Someone on here wanted it though, I'm waiting for him to give me a call.

Welcome. Like the cars. I swear I saw your black mr2 in... couple weeks ago, maybe... I wanna say Delaware, last Fri actually. I was in a grey MKIII Supra. Eh, it's not often I see black MKI's. Could be a coincidence. Nice ad, btw.
