Late to the party buuuuuuuuuuuut.... The N1 works juuuuust fine with an R32 if that’s your thing :)

They’re plenty tame on jackstands in the garage.... Waiting for an alternator installation..... One day................................

As a fella accumulating parts to build one now..... It may just be cheaper to buy that from Nismo/Omori :(

Eh, here’s this for you fellas (and ladies?), it came out juuuuuuust before the car was released.

Back in the mid/late ‘90s it was kinda big in the boosted import community. Folks would spend 300 to 500ish bucks and have their intake manifolds extrude honed and would pick up 5-15hp or so on something like a 300hp turbo car. At that time I don’t remember it ever being marketed as a way to clean out the manifold as… Read more

The original is still my favorite, and I thought Tokyo Drift was the second best. Crazy.

I started mine off okay, bought a Tomei spline drive kit and took the day off!

Guys.... These are new pics.... I SWEAR! LOOK! LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOK! SUPRA! Meh.

I just started working with a company in Canada to do just that.

I get a different haircut every time I visit a barbershop/salon. Every....... Time. I tell all of them the same exact set of instructions, and every single one of them interprets said instructions differently, in fact my barber (the one I keep coming back to and who does a pretty good job) will cut it differently… Read more

It was me!

Agreed, 35% drivetrain loss seems.... Excessive to say the least.

Ugh, I’m probably gonna get flamed but the 33 is my favorite of the bunch. It kind of looks like a Supra and an R32 had a baby. Don’t get me wrong, I like my 32 but man oh man is the interior crappy, probably one of the worst interiors of any Nissan produced. It’s bad when you yearn for that generic 33 interior but… Read more

Bingo, and cost more to own (or purchase) to boot.

In order to get the youths interested in buying a sedan Nissan would have to actually make a nice sedan, and they haven’t done so since the Altima SE-R circa ‘03-ish? FWD sedans nowadays are way too bloated and expensive to get me or anyone I know interested.

So it turns out the best way to build a budget turbo Miata for autocross is to get all the parts from friends for cheap, free, or use leftovers and rub a little elbow grease on all that stuff. Makes sense.

1. For 7k you better be selling it with this L18/KA in there.

I mean, this is bad and that fella should be ashamed of himself for asking some kid to sign his “tramp-stamp” area. Though the real tragedy is how this article completely overlooks how the male racers are forced time and time again to do the same stuff to their female-fan counterparts. It’s just as disgusting but… Read more

Get a 318ti for all your RWD Corrado needs, in the meantime, I’m still wanting a proper RWD maximum, preferably of the ‘94 SE variety though a smoothed out 95 SE would be okay as well. (this is a ‘91 but whatever)

Yep, EH7 yellow pearl glow.
