Dave you still can haz BFF status....

Alex, yeah, they are always used.....it all depends on what condition they are in for price and availability. Originally got into brokering these for drifters bc obv tire life doesnt matter, but have been surprised some of the gold I have come up w.
My new conti's are prob 70% easily

Considering the efficiency of our government, I would guess you had an oil change and tire rotation done?

The movie 200mph is hilarious. Maybe the worst script ever.

Anyone have a spare starter? I need to run compression and leakdown on spare block?

Alex, let me know sizes you can run, and I will see what I can get my mits on....for example, the contis I picked up today are 215/50/17, not ideal, but cheap as hell and going to be spent on tarmac. Need to talk to the drifters and 1/2 milers, they'd cream for $15-45 a piece rubbers.

Ps this forum has ****ed me three times on this post, so if they all show up someday, sorry...lol

Here is the 350Z that I was talking about earlier.

Not sure if someone on here drove it.



It is sideways...

Close...

I had a steering shaft knuckle replaced, purge valve replaced, and front brakes replaced.

so my evo is done at DB. rewired the fuel pump to get a bit more out of it, and it was a bust.... not to fear though. I had them put in a kenne bell boost-a-pump and retune it. It is done, but I don't have numbers. Based on what I am seeing, 500 awhp (uncorrected) on their dyno isn't out of the question. This would be some serious power if it got there. Keeping my fingers crossed that I have time today to go pick it up.

the car pulled 408 awhp uncorrected previously on e70 (shootout mode was ~500)
