My dad reminds me that all parties to the war equally took part in the slaughter of our people or turned a blind eye to it.

Mostly referring to the "I would rather see an S65B40 swapped in" part. Why RB over 2JZ? Well, 2JZ is a boring swap. Make power all day, Supra, etc. etc.. The RB swap you generally see in other Nissans while this platform has that Toyota history so you see 2JZ swap a lot. I just think the RB is a more interesting platform - less exposure than the 2JZ, but still being among the more known engines.

Might as well go LSX

Did your Dad save our country during the Cold War by protecting the waters from Russian subs? Also reminds me how much I loved playing Red Storm Rising on my Commodore 64 and first Windows computer. Nothing better than sinking some Russian subs in my LA or Seawolf class US sub.

No, my father was in the Red Army's Air Force during the Cold War. My grandfather served in the KGB at the end of the war and during the period immediately after the war.

I thought you meant US Air Force when you first posted, and I thought that must have been a really interesting family decision. So your father immigrated to the US after serving in the Red Army's Air Force and you are a second generation American?

He and my mother emigrated from the Soviet Union before it fell. I was born here, so I am first generation American.

I thought that because your parents emigrated from Russia and immigrated to the US that they were considered the first gens, but you are probably right as you are the first to start life in America. What are your thoughts on in Soviet Russia memes? I love them. You also made me research the difference between immigrate and emigrate.

My thoughts? Don't give two shits about Soviet Union or Russia - shitty places. My parents are from Ukraine anyway. Fuck that place too.

Orbital liek memes doe.

That is the @OrbitalEllipses I know. I just hope we don't find you swimming with the fishes tomorrow after that statement just like the Russian who let the fifth Olympic ring fail.

@King Tut, it's okay. I know a guy.

The mix will depend on the amount of E85 vs 93 you have in a tank

tuning problems might be non existent at this point for all we know

I saw on FB yesterday that @Visconti just realesed his Flex Fuel V2 for the BRZ/FR-S. It was very hard to resist asking if the big improvement was the inclusion of a fire extinguisher.
