Remember how we were talking about Apple suing various companies and whatnot?
WHY THE HELL AREN'T THEY SUING HP? Honestly, HP does more blatant copying than those obscure Chinese manufacturers. It's really disappointing when a big company like HP does something like this because they lose so much respect IMO. I'm not an Apple fanboi, but I do own an iMac, and this is just ridiculous.

I'm going to be in Chi-town for business this week, too bad my flight back home is Friday. I know they've got some nice whips over there, I just never knew an R34 would be in that area.

Was it available in the US? I'm guessing no
I'd love to buy one of those powertrains...Toyota used Eaton TVS SCs on a few models outside the US before. Although, I noticed the 1NR transmission has an extremely short 1st gear, which sorta bothers me. I prefer the smaller 1-2 gap on the C60 trans. My C56 is a 3.166 to 1.904 or something and I feel like shifting 1-2 is kinda awkward because you have to wait for the revs to drop a bit or else you get a big jerk. The C60's 3.166 to 2.050 is about right IMO, if my 2nd gear was at 2.050 I think it'd feel like a pretty natural shift. The 1NR's transmission (haven't heard of the designation yet) has a 3.538 to 1.913 1-2 gap, which is freaking massive. |

Can't even wait for someone to crash theirs and pull the supercharger out. Sad face. Makes me wonder, why the f does South Africa or whatever out of all places get the supercharged (state of the art R900 too) 2ZR-FAE Aurion? Not fair. |

All aluminum, compact 60°, segregated intake runners with ecu controlled butterflies on the secondaries, short stroke, if Mazda 6's 6 speed manual has a Duratec bolt pattern it will bolt to the motor, Cosworth AND Yamaha co-developed. Did I mention it's a V8? I'm already verbally commited to another Mk3 Supra (fuel pump and tune needed for 400whp), otherwise I would probably buy that Taurus I linked to, and look for a ZW30 to stuff it into. . Edit: They also seem to have a major camshaft design flaw that randomly eats engines. D'oh!
