Real Fiero Tech

Sweet read. As Pyrthian said, sealing is the issue. You could do it with some expensive, low wear, low thermal expansive material like ceramic but that problem is just that, its expensive. It sucks that F1 banned it but I understand why. Sure they are supposed to be pushing the limits of technology ...

All the lifters are run of the mill. its 25 year old technology. They stamp them out hundreds at a time. I dont' know of a high performance 60 degree lifter made by crane, so yea I guess run of the mill too, which they all are anyways. If you think about it though there isn't much to a lifter. I am...

Pretty cool and would take a lot of time and talent but come on.

He spent 15 years making a Ferrari by hand and he can't even drive it....what a waste of time, money and metal.

What kind of BOV is it, and any pics of it? How much for it?

Most katan's are able to cut through 6 human femurs with a man's strength behind the blow. Think about that, that is a lot of fucking bone...

Just a lot of the early 90's Nissan cars have a lot left in them if you go over the engines to reduce flow restrictions. The 300zx is the one that comes to my mind, the intake and exhuast tracks in that car have lots of weird neckdowned points. Thats all.

THey sure do, they have large "wings" on the sides of the oil pan that keep the pickup covered in oil at high G's.

Sure does sound like some crazy shit, and I am sure it wasnt too durable but it still is interesting.

I am 6'4 and 210 and am a TOTAL lightweight.
If I don't eat anyting, a beer will get me feeling goofy. I don't drink much in the first place so that has something to do with it.

Pretty interesting, anyone know of any more in depth dicussion of the car?

Spend some money to rebuild the transmission and have it either REM finished or that new Mikronite finish. Then cryotreat it and you should be fine:)

Yup, most mid engine cars have the cockpit stucture and then subframes attached to they can break loose in event of a huge collison. Sucks bout the Enzo and all the other carbon/composite passenger tubs is that in a big collison, its just a throw away item, you can't repair it once its damaged that ...

It is so heavy cause of the huge cylinder heads, the four cams and all the extra valvetrain.
Great engine, would love to get my hands on one and build it up, that thing could make some get NA power, turbocharged? OH MY!

May actutally be more than a month, not sure yet.
Hell, how does 10 bucks plus shipping sound? With all the cables and shit, ill never need it;)

what about one of the new crayloa crayon colors?
my favorite is "bittersweet" WTF?

WRX wheels have the 5x100 bolt pattern. Not sure bout the offset, but I think they should work.

i guess i should know that since I am surrounded by them.....lol i wish i had 5 k to buy something

This isn't meant to be a bash on anyone who has bought a PS3. Maybe I am just not in the element of gaming consels but why would anyone in their right mind buy a PS3 on ebay for 5 grand? For that much money I could have a desktop computer that would cook be breakfast, change my oil and still kick th...

When do you need it? I will have one available in a month or so.

If you have to high of a spring rate, you will wear the camshaft lobes out a lot faster and there will be lots of stress on the rest of the valvetrain.
I would think that unless you are going to be running huge amount of boost or rpm's over 6500 that the LS springs would not work.
