  1. yeah, but Mark's should've been finished ages ago!
  2. i've used a stumpy screwdriver before to get them out. but i've since bought a right angled screw driver set, which would make it easier to crack it at least.
  3. drove past you today - you were showing it off at forestville. i had the baby in the car sleeping so i couldn't honk or stop. looks good.
  4. fluttering is not 'intercooler' sound, its the sound of the air pressure formed by the turbo being pushed back against the compressor blades. yeah it sounds pretty cool, some people debate on whether this is all that bad for the turbo. the pipe work in these cars is horrible, so shortening it would be a good idea, although the diameter wouldn't have to be bigger if you aren't going to throw extra boost at the motor. i don't think you'll gain much and at 115kw from the factory you would want some decent gains for it to be worth buying.
  5. every $100 you blow on the 4k is $100 further away from your conversion. you could spend a small fortune on your 4k before you know it and it will still go like ass compared to a proper conversion.
  6. if you are doing a CA or SR conversion why waste money on an exhaust system for the 4K?
  7. most people run a remote booster, as that one will get in the way of the clutch master cylinder (if you put one in line with the pedal).
  8. wrong, see post #20 for an example.
  9. BTW 13b (and 12a strictly speaking) are illegal in a ke20 and won't pass engineering.
  10. different things affect different people in different ways. i know lots of people who have come off unscathed after more than 10 years of partying hard and smoking choof hard.
  11. depends on how much you will do yourself? if you do it all, then just the cost of the motor and any sundries to get it wired and fuelled up. if you want a drive in, drive out price - then take it to a workshop for a quote.
  12. it was the Facebook ad which was the point of the post "...shows how to get ripped as quickly as possible".
  13. So Michael Phelps gets busted with a bong: And the Facebook ad which has been around for ages:
  14. + 1 for some pics! you can run 10psi easy on the high comp motor.

    saw your car in Zoom, whats up with the wierd colour rendition? it looks more goldy than bamboo!
  16. i know they were sold in limited numbers, but apparently they took a long time to sell with many dealers struggling to move the ones they had bought for stock. Didn't Soulsearcher have ECU problems too? If i remember right she was lucky it was under warranty otherwise it would have been cheaper to replace with a Haltech or something.
  17. i bet toyota let out a big sigh of relief that these cars didn't sell very well when they saw most of them coming back for repairs.
  18. nice, engineered?
  19. dude just go a 4age, cheap as chips. wait around for a RWD manifold to pop up on ebay and you have less problems to worry about. if i was you i'd look for a 7k efi.
  20. you won't get a good conversion done, and on the road LEGALLY with $4000, double it and its possible but you won't get the good shit. IMHO, 20v isn't worth it. put in a 16v and turbo it. heaps more torque for your dollar.
  21. Tower 7 is one of the holes in the story and the Jewish guy who took on the lease for the WTC (with new insurance) even let it slip that it was demolished. But seriously, i've believed the real story to be phoney since day 1 (which is over 7 years now) and I had a huge feeling that Iraq would be invaded after Afghanistan. You know what though? i got over thinking about it real quick because there is nothing we can do about it. We don't seem to have revolution in our blood (unlike the French).
  22. legally you have to use a year 2000 or later series motor, not sure how much a late model 3SGTE motor + conversion would cost. Overpowered RWD cars are more fun than overpowered FWD cars.
  23. yeah, you've just seen a movie which is probably full of emotive montages with music which makes you feel like it has to be true. You may feel a little "eyes wide open" for a while, read a bunch of stuff and then decide its all part of the Matrix anyway...just take the f@$king blue or red pill or whatever and go back to sleep.
  24. nah haven't seen it and can't be bothered downloading it, but read lots of info from different sources over the years from both sides of the story. If you love this sort of stuff check out Reptillian Humanoids and Serpent Seed Doctrine on wikipedia lol.
  25. sounds like www.serendipity.li
