yes my spelling is horibel.. horrabol... bad ;) to be fair most of my post are done on my phone, please forgive me. lots of posts guys, thank you very much. I'm enjoying the back and forth and hope other are as well. sorry for those who don't like these kind of threads. i'll ease up on the "lol" also. so the drive home was so fun. i did get a feel for how this kind of car differs from others I've owned. also noticed that it doesn't wake up till about 3700rpms, then it sets you back pretty nicely :D It does seem like the suspension was a wise move. does anyone have any thoughts on the lowering springs? just a question... don't hate on me lol... i mean ha ha ha driving school..... again i hear ya and not saying anyone is wrong. i just cant see me paying some one to show me that. but I'm also out in the sticks of the thumb in Michigan where there is not much around. as long as i can dodge cows in the road i should be OK. that shifter feels a little stiff. is that normal? notice my navigator in the passenger seat ;) my little buddy loves doing car stuff with me. the man upstairs has blessed me. as far as my other cars "pics of said supras" etc. lo... ha ha I'll load up some pics of some of my projects as well. |
Sorry bud, I assumed that 'Compensating' was taken so you switched a vowel!
Plenty of great people have been rubbish at spelling. In the office beside me there's a guy who drives a Maserati GT, owns several office complexes and can't spell to save himself. Wish I had his problems. |

ok so attached is the car i'm building right now. i'm actually building two of them one for me and one for my brother. mine is a 383 lt1 bolted to a boxster s trans. the other is a 5.3 lq9 twin turbo bolted to an audi 5hp. mine should be around 500hp and the 5.3 will be around 800hp. they will weigh about 2200lbs and stand at 40" tall with a 105 wheel base. they ARE NOT replicas or built on donor cars. i am building my own frames, and my own body. the closest car i can see that looks similar would be a noble. the other picture is of my current vette. i stripped it down to the frame and redid everything on it. from radiator to rear end. i also cut out my fenders and made a wide body look in the rear. i currently have 305/35/18 on there. i'll post up some pics of my 5.3 twin turbo camaro and a supra pic or two when i fire up my tower pc. anyway. thanks for reading guys. |

one more of my current project. this was in the beginning stages. the panels are just held together with clamps and such. i cant take credit for the design of the car. i bought the molds off a man in canada. great guy with some awesome vision. there is only three of these car. mine my brothers and his and i own the molds ;) lol http://i1207.photobucket.com/albums/...psda3186b7.png |
Those are some damn sticky tires!!!
Dont sweat speeling misstakes LOL The more you drive the Boxster, the more you will like it The power curve is about 3500-6000 comes on like gang busters and 3rd gear is good to just under 100 It has a good rev limiter, so you are safe to push it as far as driving school, many of the PCA chapters have DE/TT track days. Lots of laps and they give you an instructor I am doing one this weekend at Buttonwillow Raceway. cost under $300 for 2 days. You get almost 2 hours of actual track time |

To the sticky tires in the other post. Had to, with the stock 300hp it would light em up. ive added about 150hp to it with 3:54 gears and a stall. I needed to get some of that to the ground ;) |

In fact I hardly ever see Vettes at the track. Mustangs, Miata, Hondas, couple Porsche, various other cars but usually only 1 or 2 Vettes per event and always in my way. And easily lapped [emoji6] Sent from my SM-G925T using Tapatalk |

I might have to get you to spell this one out for me, can I assume that you aren't referring to my financial situation? |

Then he told us we are all poor and doing it wrong. I took comfort in telling him well, at least I could hold you against the ground for pretty much as long as I wanted to... Total egomaniac. Glad he's gone. |
Oh ok, I was lacking inside knowledge :)
cheers |
