OMG I want.

I love hypocrites.

After getting off work I hit 2nd gear and short shift to 5th. At a red light I hear "Hey this aint no drag strip, that aint no drag car NAH. C'mon!" :hustler: Its a big black guy in a Hemi Ram. Light turns green and he takes off. WTF? He's doing at least 65 in a 45. I go to pass him to avoid slower traffic, as soon as he heard me he goes VVVRROOOOMMMM RRRUUUHHHH so I couldn't pass. :nuts:

You couldn't pass a hemi ram?

You need more boost, balls or learn how to drive.

I was in 5th rev matched into 3rd. But...

Sloan's security was on the side of the truck. I didn't want to risk geting chased by this wanna be.

Plenty of fuckin balls man! Going to hit some back roads right now before my study session.

Dammit, just realized that the used R pkg front lip I bought was painted red, then repainted black at some point in the past. Now the paint is starting to crack and chip around the edges. I can't complain too much as I got a good price on it (though the 2 layers of paint weren't mentioned), but I'm getting tired of having to refinish and repaint every part that goes on my car.

Solution: Sand down and repaint before.

I know, I'm going to start sanding it tonight...I'm just tired of this process.

Hey man, Im only following the instructions on the manual. Im was freaking out lol

Priceless, how did the meet go?

So today I was at a stoplight in my car and I decided that the mile or so of strait road in front of me was a dragstrip. I rev, dump the clutch and launch at ~3,500rpm at WOT. Tires spin about halfway up second and I finally get grip. Go to the top of third and the whole time I noticed there's a bigass pickup hanging onto the back of me.

Turns out it was a 5.7 supercharged Hemi. Damn that fucker was quick and loud.

I think the only answer is MOAR BOOST.

Fargin awesome!!! I finally got my FM2 clutch in. Talk about a heavy pedal. That thing will make a man out of me for sure. I bet it wont slip though. I was really surprised, as tight as that thing clamps, not a bit of chatter. Smooth as butter. I am a happy panda.

I'm so excited, I may just put my '96 diff and RX-7 lsd in tomorrow along with my cam gears!

Big thanks to Shuiend and Brain for the advice!

How much power can I push through a 2" downpipe? 2560 with FM log mani.

Anyone in the sacromento/fairfield area want to show my fellow buddy that WRXs dont stand a chance to a correctly built miata? He is a lil scooby happy.

Just thought I'd share a few helpful observations, as even if you know something like second-nature, it is still occasionally useful to be reminded.

1: If you elect to remove a transmission by hoisting it up through the engine bay, and you forget to first drain the gear oil, it will all run out through the tailshaft onto the floor.

2: A typical five-speed transmission holds approximately 700 gallons of oil.

Joe's Garage: New home of BP.

rubber band and a condom on the shaft ftw.

My condoms fit over the bell housing.

This story is going to make some money. David Fincher. I'm excited...
