Paradox 02-16-2003 12:54 PM

wouldnt that red MK3 on Volks be the same one i saw in Brentwood? looked like it had a lip on it but it wasnt Jaretts... all the windows were tinted very dark. and the paint looked new or very well kept


or am i tripping? :confused:

Paradox 02-16-2003 01:04 PM

ohh yeah. i dont have my old o2 sensor either.

for some reason they dont tend to live very long with the DP leaking a 1/4 inch on almost all 4 sides of the turbo to DP

NashMan 02-16-2003 01:34 PM

but here si the big qestion did you buy a ford one or yoda one

i don't know wtich oe i will buy yet but we will see

fuzebox 02-16-2003 11:51 PM

I just filled up on Friday, 61L for $59... This will probably last me less than a week (5-6 days).

Fark :(

Those kits are nice, although my favorite is the stock front end with a lip. Just wait until you guys see my custom lip (almost Lam-style).

Don't worry, it'll look nice ;)

NashMan 02-17-2003 10:01 AM

Paradox 02-17-2003 01:08 PM

hah, i havent had to pay for gas in awhile

although riding my bike f*cking sucks nuts.... :flamemad:


ryan go with the ford sensor, its like half the price of a toyota and does the same job

NashMan 02-17-2003 02:26 PM

well toby i got he prics for you and this seam's to be about the best price i can get and they whould be here on saterday and thast is 423 taxes in for the h&r springs


so supra sport sell em for 364 whiht out shipping so you will have em here whiht shipping about 400 bucks

so if you want em in like cuople of days tell me about it and no i did not puish to get lower prie that i can do but i wonte in less really intrested

Paradox 02-17-2003 02:37 PM

thats from Lordco?


i got my H&Rs from suprasport..... i forget what i paid but shipping wasnt too bad compared to other stuff of the same size

Paradox 02-17-2003 04:22 PM

well... since i cant drive i figure i may aswell finish my car well i have time to work on it. im trying to think up possible exhaust upgrades. as is my pacesetter is only 2.5" mandrel bent very free flowing.

.. but not good enough

plan a) spend all my money and gets a Blitz NUR Spec catback or the MAXX system for a little bit less money

plan b) keep the stock exhaust pipes, but buy one of those cheapo canister style mufflers off ebay. have kenny weld it up and put a mechanical exhaust cut out in the place of the 2nd cat.


im sorta leaning to plan b... i know electronic is easier for the cut-out, but its more money and i want to do this as cheaply as possible, if infact i do it at all.

suggestions?

NashMan 02-17-2003 04:51 PM

go run out buy shinny muffler of choice and send you to the pla cei got my stuff done at you can ever get you muffler put on angle if you wish it all up to you


buying cat back system is just plain dumb i find in less you are rolling in money


over grand for exhuast is not my cup of tea


but under 200 bucks for pipeing that will never rust and you choice of muffler you can't go wroung

Enraged 02-17-2003 05:00 PM

$320 to my door from toysport on socalsupras, he runs www.supra-sport.com

as for the exhaust, why not keep your current exhaust, and get an electric cutout before the cat? uS$99 for the electric cutout, US$35 for a cutout from summit, probably not even an hour to weld it onto your current downpipe. when you want to go fast, hit a switch, thats it.

tell you what murray. ill trade you my exhaust for yours + an electric cutout? lol

Paradox 02-17-2003 05:05 PM

hrmm yeah the cutout idea is sounding sweeter the more i look into it

electric cut out. i dont know.. just more money... is it really that hard to stick your hand under the car and turn a knob?

i mean it may be useful if you get pulled over by a cop for sound polution or something, but i wouldnt plan on using it very often. i think even on my shitty catback if i had the resonator welded out and put on a canister style muffler it would flow fairly well. but thats besides the point

i want fast spool... very fast, and the quickest way would be the cut out which for the money, seems the best way to go.

im still worried about burning the hell out of the underside of my car, i mean ryan shoots flames from the back of his muffler, if that was happening post-cat it cant be good for daily driven (thinks up some sort of heatshield idea....)

Enraged 02-17-2003 05:11 PM

heatsheild, good idea hehe. just get some mild steel, cut it out, hammer it into a shape, drill some holes, and your done hehe

NashMan 02-17-2003 05:39 PM

i ran open dp and stuff befor qnd then hooke dup my exhuast did not really notice any power incress that was realy that great


but heat seail will not do squte for flames it will burn you car remmber the close the open end the bigger the flame the hotter the flame akak blue flame

not avised in any way if you wan to run open dp let it go out side of the car plus you trans tems will sky rock it just not smart

i wounder never do it but that is me

Paradox 02-17-2003 06:20 PM

im talking about using it hardly ever though. trans temp and such really wont matter if i use it once a week (or even less most likely)

Enraged 02-17-2003 06:33 PM

or you direct the cutout away from the trans, thats how they are designed. go tell all the hotrod guys that run cutouts that they arent good.....

Paradox 02-17-2003 06:39 PM

i'll have to ask what steve at the tranny shop thinks

i wouldnt want to do it, then have my warranty go to shit because of it.

also he deals with alot of killer cars, so he'd know about cutouts first hand.... and well if he doesnt, marlon will

NashMan 02-17-2003 07:40 PM

baaa mna flip the elbo around and make you down pipe stick throu the hood
