Now this is funny > Now that someone had relied to a post that I had posted on before I can post again. WTH?

Anyway, hey hey!

Duane

It asks you to log on all the time because you have to enable cookies otherwise it will do that. It will also do that if you came here through a link from elsewhere.

Yeah if i bend them up to be the same as the stock pipes then i will need 12 bends. I can get them through work for 15 bucks each but thats not the point cause think, $15 x 12 is still $180 bucks then the little bit of straight piping and clamps and shit. If someone knows a better way to do it let me know, cause id really like to make some up.

Paradox 05-20-2004 04:16 PM

yo Duane, hows the beast?

i have some ghetto hardpipe info about bends and such somewhere.... i'll have to try and find it

we have talk i can make you very shpot patch and not need as many bend as you think you do

Enraged 05-20-2004 04:48 PM

TB > 3000 pipe, 45 degree bend. straight pipe out toanother 45 by the filter. a 75ish degree through the snorkel hole, a 90 to the IC

Turbo> IC: 45 off the turbo down to another 45 aimed towards the front, 90 int the IC.

take 180 U bends and chop them up, should only take 3-5 u bends x $15 = $75ish + couplers + clamps...

duane: no rush, i know good quality takes time. car wont be on the road for a bit, and im still waiting for other parts...

in other news: Blitz ebc got here today, trim should be here next week, sway bars should arrive 25th or 26th...

Not bad ;)

Now rebuilding the engine to make some more power! Major head porting with over sized valves blah blah all stainless.

Also custom pistons from JE along with carillo rods. My new goal is 700 RWHP or close to it plus a 100 shot of nitrous.

Then to the track I go!

I have also gotten rid of my power steering for some weight savings. I have a 5.0 mustang manual rack custom made by Maxx to put in. Should loose about 35 pounds on that.

Another NOTE: Did you get my other email? I wanted to get something going with the logo and a few things as I had mentioned.

As far as cookies.. how do I do that? Only way to get on this site and post is to wait for someone to post then I can go on that link :(

Duane

Get your ride going yet Paradox? Drop me a line if you can. You got it right? The free one.

NashMan 05-20-2004 07:39 PM

well i have bena thinking of the manule raclk my self it kinda easy to make but i wounder how the rack feels in supra really

right nwo i am beaning a weight notize to make my car more of track car then any thing els

the big thing i wna aknow is how does the rack bolt up is it floating rack or bolt type rack folating racks suck big time in less you use meatl shims and stuff in stead of gay as rubber

cause the only diff when droping ti is is the tie rods that is it just swap them over but i don't knwo if it floats or bolts in

cause the stockj rack is pretty heafty thing it is esplily the 89 one it heavy fucker compared tot eh none speed sencering one

upgradedsupraa 05-20-2004 09:20 PM

Hey Nash,

It will bolt in but when I get it all together I will let you know how it is.

upgradedsupraa 05-21-2004 11:48 PM

The rack will be new and it will bolt right in. Only 2 guys I know right now have done this.

Mainly for weight savings and more response. You will feel the road better with this new designed rack.

Arms work fine on my car but not asll the hop is gone. I have a big project going on the car next year. ;)

lol.... I wasn't referring to the actual site, just most of the content. NOrth Island section is always dead, Vancouver section doesn't apply to me. THat's all. I think it's an awesome little site, but I just don't really check the whole thing out regularly, just here and the for sale stuff.

It's a fun place :)

NashMan 05-23-2004 12:00 AM
