hah, hell, I spent $1400 on it in a day at Super Autobacs in Tokyo Bay. That place is like Christmas with cash registers.

2JZs are definitely heavier, but you'll definitely mung the balance with an LS to a degree as the FA20 is a very, very light motor. I'm looking forward to the FA22/FA24 that comes out when they...

Everyone shows this or similar. The DOHC in this shot is fully dressed, the LS has no accessories. Unfair.

300lb over stock isn't bad for a racecar level of power/weight, though. You could always...

I wish I could use it! I have to retain cat, sadly. Been eyeballing pretty much any option that lets me keep the front one, even if the back one's going to end up in the bin.

Yep. Unfortunately I picked up a rumour, I just left it alone since I didn't come back for a while. My apologies!

There's some nice EL headers but it's worth noting they do a little less against the "dip" and more for the peaks. It's honestly a non issue for me-- the Silvia is fairly cammy and won't respond...

Don't think so off the top of my head. The stabilisers are a friction pad that holds the clip/latch base and tighter fitting clip/latch. A sliding plate enables the pressure without forcing the issue.

yeah man. Insurance. If you've got it, use it. Sure it's your first car but if you don't use your insurance why the hell do you have it? Doesn't mean you're going to stack like this again necessarily.

I'd agree that you wouldn't see much power loss between transmissions but it's worth noting the gearing in the AT limits its acceleration compared to the MT. It's not severe but it's very notable.

Ooh, jesus. Yeah, AVGAS LL110 or UL105 if you can get that instead. Don't put the full leaded shit in there. And jet fuel is a fantastic way to mangle car engines.

Because they have to meet emissions targets and noise levels? The "restriction" in this case is your entire intake tract, that's why there's midpoint volume expansions and reflection points.
