We maybe need a noob-free backup plan?

The other FT related sites were working fine, too bad they all suck..

Hopefully hachi has the funds to add make this a dedicated host instead of shared (assuming). Eventually I'm sure we'll start seeing advertising on here, at least I wouldn't want to foot the bill for a high traffic site without advertisments..

Was it the traffic that killed the site? Or was there some other problem?

Some angles I really like it, but the more I look at it from others its like the front quarter and the rear are from 2 different cars and it doesn't seem to hang together that well...

Sorry about the downtime yesterday folks... too much traffic from the first live pics

Things will be upgraded and should be ok (hopefully) for the TMS reveals

*** That said, there may be some site downtime this weekend for the upgrades.

Those who are concern with turbo adding additional weight, or messing up the weight balance, there is always the option installing a Remote Mounted turbo setup.

That's how I feel. It should look good no matter what angle you are looking at it from. But the very moment it turns 45 degrees in the front view, I see and RX-8. The very moment it turns 45 degrees from a rear view, it's boxy like an American V8. So, I'm not really feeling it. FRS gets my vote on this one. It flows all together and doesn't transition from smooth lines to a box shape at the rear.
