Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

Base price of the GT3 over here is 1 515 000 SEK (Easiest way to convert to USD is to just remove the last zero, and it's somewhat accurate most of the time).

 

Price would probably be closer to 160k for a spec I would actually want myself. The $10k for carbon-ceramic brakes is just too much. Maybe would have gotten them if the car were to see a lot of track time.

Yeah carbon ceramics way overkill for my uses...

Rather have a AW11 personally. SW20 is still nice though

Oh I forgot about this. Part of Highway 1 has fallen in to the ocean.

Our hope for the rest of California to follow suit is possible.

Not until we save the 3 Zondas that are in California, two cinques and one tricolore. Once those are out of the state, I am fine with it falling into the ocean.

Full electric works. Just not for everyone.

 

It works for your usual daily, if you're not driving too much in a day. If you have up to 100 miles (160 km) of real-world range, then you're more or less good for normal city use over here.

Methanol?

hoonicorn v2 doesn't run an intercooler. 

 

And neither do those massive v16 cummins genset engines. 

I have no clue about methanol. I believe it does run much cooler? idk.

Anyone want an auto transmission for a miata? xD

 

engine was pretty clean. The front water outlet tho broke in shipping. At least I have another engine with another one. Let's not break that one too... 

 

We pretty much pulled all the accessories and built a little stand out of 2x4's for it to sit on. 

 

Of course I didn't take many pics! Why would I do that?

Thinking about adding a boost gauge and oil pressure gauge still.Brand recommendations that won't cost me an arm and a leg. Been thinking about Glowshift pretty seriously but I don't have my heart set

One annoying thing about having nice headlights. I get flashed all of the time, so I flash people back. God you've got to feel dumb when you flash someone with their low beams on.

 

Still want to get Auxbeam LED bulbs for my headlights and foglights. But IDK at this point

Some bulbs are waaaaaay too bright though tbh, and a lot of people don't adjust them properly either.

It's the fact that most cars have super oxidized housings around here with super dim lights and typically only one headlight. So people flash me all the time. I just wish my brights were a tiny bit brighter so when driving down country roads I can see Deer from further away (Actually a big issue here)

I love blue LED headlights but NO ONE adjusts them properly... They're always way to damn high and go into your eyes....
