The 2JZ in the SC300 and GS300 are not an engine you can simply stick a turbo on and call it a day. The 2JZ GE the 2JZ GTE are vastly different. The 2Jz GTE has a different head, larger injectors, stronger rods, stronger pistons, and a stronger crankshaft... All of which are absent on the 2JZ GE. So the 2JZ GE is a…

I don’t know much, but I think EP’s front tons of money so that the movie can be produced.

I hired a bodyshop guy to put on my fender flares for me.

You don’t understand dekotora?

IT’S TOO LATE.

Some of the new Castlevania games sucked too. How far Konami has fallen...

This is how I feel too, and it’s a sign of a well-done Free-to-Play game. I am going to spend a few bucks on HOTS just because I really enjoy the game and I want to see it succeed and grow. I haven’t paid for anything yet, but I think I’ll pick up a costume during the sale.

But they asked him to put that Camaro into the wall. Big difference.

I’ve got a terrible rattling sound coming from the front end of my miata, but it’s only when I’m engine braking. I keep thinking that the element in the cat is loose, but I can’t duplicate the noise just by revving in neutral. I also get a scraping sound, but only when I turn one way. Any ideas? I jacked up the car…

On a micro level, harassing has become a HUGE part of competitive SC2. Even just to be competent in bronze league you have to watch for reaper harasses 3 minutes in. It’s a bit exhausting, but that’s why it’s fun I guess. I can’t hack it past bronze in 1v1 because I don’t want to need a build order written down on a…

This is some of the best writing I have ever read.

C’mon, that’s life baby! It is not a feel-good book, but I wouldn’t call it sad either.

You should read “The Art of Racing in The Rain” if you haven’t already. There’s a passage in the book that lays out exactly what you just said, when the narrator is talking about sliding a car around in the rain. It might seem like this guy is just on the edge of control... but the way he’s initiating countersteer so…

It helps more if you watch some of Tsuchiya. He’s the AE86 driver the main character of Initial D was kinda-sorta modeled after. He raced in JTCC (I think) and got his start on the touge.

I’m hoping to go to Japan some day, and the only places on my list so far are: Tokyo, Kyoto, and any mountain in Gunma. Awesome.

OK, OK, I’m gonna be the guy to do it:

That was vicious!

Thanks goodness, no S2000 on this list. They are expensive enough as-is!

I disagree with his statement. Farts are funnier than poop, and they qualify as a “substance,” right?

Agreed. Their lawyers are clearly overworked and underpaid, but they know what happens when this shit goes wrong (this story gets written, among other things). I have a difficult time believing that the people who were forced to do nothing but read for three years at law school managed to screw this up.
