Case Studies – Cam Angle Sensor and Drive Belts on a Infiniti G35
My G35 has been driven hard and put away wet by many various members of my family, and just the other day the car threw the dreaded P0340 CAS error. Oh well, I guess I can’t be too upset considering the G35 has over 230,000 miles on it. What better time to replace my drive belts […]
Case Studies – Installing a B&M Command Flo FPR in a Supercharged B series
Anthony’s Jackson Racing Supercharged EG last put down 219 hp at the wheels with a completely stock Jackson Racing setup. Since then he’s added a walbro 255HP fuel pump, which has significantly increased the fuel pressure under load. Unfortunately, it’s also wreaked havoc on his idle fuel pressure, causing an overly rich condition at idle […]

Why install […]
Tebow and John 3:16…………..
Tim Tebow is easily the most intriging athlete of our generation, easily the most polarizing name in sports in recent memory. No other athlete will garner the reaction that Tim will, you either hate him or love him, there is no middle ground. As a Christian myself, I love his morals and his faith and […]
Piggyback Heaven – Installing a SAFC in a MKIV Supra TT
I’ve died and gone to piggyback heaven in the early stages of 2012, as a good friend recently picked up a MINT 1997 Anniversary Edition Toyota Supra Turbo. I have always loved these cars and the insane amount of over-engineering that went into the legendary 2JZGTE. Since this car is probably one of the ONLY […]
2011 Atlanta Falcons – One and Done… again
It’s been 4 days since my Falcons were pulverized by the New York Giants, and it’s taken that long for me to collect my thoughts in a coherent fashion. It’s one thing for me to go off half-cocked but I like my ability to be subjective about the subject matter so it’s taken me a […]

Case Studies – My R33 Skyline
I had my Skyline imported back in 2008 as a parts car with the original intention of following Motorex’s guidelines in federalizing the vehicle. After just 3 hours the motor and transmission was installed and within 5 the car roared to life. With a bevy of HKS parts, my Skyline belted out 365 at the […]
