:rofl::rofl: At least they weren't the cheap China ebay turbo kits that we see today.
This was the scene back in the days before FnF. Baggy clothing, bleached blonde tips, a bunch of slow cars, Autometer tachs, ugly body kits. It was something to do on a Sat night since most of us weren't 21...
Those were the days. Post up a pic. I sometimes get the itch to buy a ITR and saw a few gems on BaT. I even saw a 91 CRX Si that was never modified and very clean.
I remember my friend talking me out of getting Bullfrog cams and to go JG. I was like, “What the hell is JG?!” He then says...
Your friends are dicks! :D
Speaking of which, I had to pull my dash apart to replace the CEL module since mine stopped working (very common and had a broken solder joint). If I remember correctly, if you bought a new odometer module from Toyota, they had to input the milage. So if that...
Exactly! Mod NA power gains are a joke. Speaking of Integra, I too had a 94 Integra GSR and ran a 80 shot direct port system for $800 back in '97 when it was all about the Honda imports. I then sold my NOS kit and bought a Revhard T3/T4 turbo kit for $2200 only to run 12's at Battle of the...
The BMW's aftermarket group is not as widespread as the MKIV aftermarket group but that could change. BMW just figured it out with their closed deck block and back when Toyota did it 20 yrs ago. I'm talking about shops offering a complete engine packages that can handle 4,000hp. Another...
+1 With BMW being the winner in this situation. Given the B58 has been out for a while, a few companies with BPU specs is normal. Since this is the MKV, the bigger players like HKS, GReddy, Real Street, AMS, SP will start builds and find ways to extract as much out of the engine, transmission...
It's all about first impressions. It's going to be a tough sell when the shock factor is not there. This is why Kevin Hunter made the FT-1 to exotic dimensions, to capture that immediate excitement.
Personally, I still want to drive it but buying... 1st year production... no thank you. I'm...
It was those little details that Toyota used to possess, sadly not the case any more. The MKIV had the signature "turbo blade" vent that was conveniently the same size to also hold a 60mm boost gauge. SMH Toyota...
Have you removed the fake vent on the fender on your FRS? I've seen threads where owners DIY'd their own vent so unless GRMN plans to offer proper ducting, it's going to remain a fake vent.
Yup, a manual would help but even with a 6 speed, it still won't win the hearts of car enthusiasts...
Man, I just can't get how boring that MKV interior is. I don't see any driver centric dash like the FT-1 or the MKIV. BMW gave Toyota a laundry list of interior components like TFT display, HVAC module, radio preset module, cheap vents, iDrive system and let Toyota go to work.
1)That...
Yeah, too late now. Oh well, it is what it is.
It’s possible for the B58 to be a great engine but as you mentioned, we’ll see. It really depends on how much aftermarket support, how easy it’ll be work on and the cost of OEM Toyota parts.
After Guff's video, it's more clear but still a bad decision by Toyota. Since the collaboration, the MKV shared the Z4's frame. That's why it had to be shorten 5 inches and lost the 2+2.
Toyota was free to design the exterior and interior but with shared parts from the BMW Z4 for that...
Yeah but so does everyone else. lol Prices have slightly cooled off but most asking prices are retarded. Good luck with the build. It's not that bad and you can get it back to a clean BPU in no time.
Dude, 10K! That's a steal! I'm still trying to find a '69-'73 911 "longhood" that I want to build so I hear ya when it comes to finding the car and then the fun part of starting the teardown. Are you going to create a build thread here or on SF?
Nice, I knew you couldn't stay away from the MKIV's. :beer: The trunk, tail lights and targa look off? Supra on the left and turbo on the right. What's up with all of that?
Ok fine, how about the other forums. :rofl: IMO, as @twntrbo03' mentioned in his post, it's not just MKIV owners but those who know like sports cars as well.
