Project SC : A New Beginning… Or is it?

I have to admit that moving from the nimble and athletic S14 chassis to a heavy pig like the  Z30 ( or Soarer if you are in Japan ), hasn’t been an easy transition for me. It’s taken some time, but the comfort of the SC300 and overall finish make for an excellent street car […]

NHL Lockout : Can Hockey Survive 2012 Lockout?

Every once and a great while, I question the decision making of sports executives and owners. After all, they are in direct control and primarily responsible for millions upon millions of dollars, they must know what they are doing right?? I’ll have to admit, as much studying, analyzing and detail I like to pretend I […]

NFL Week 5 2012 : Redskins vs Falcons Preview – Griffin vs the Amoeba?

I really can’t help but admire RG3’s season thus far, his natural talent really jumps out at you, as well as his composure and comfort level. In the rookie signalcaller, the Falcons face a stiff test in not only what Griffin can do with his feet, but the league’s leading rushing attack at 175 a […]

Sports : Michael Whitlock and Stupidity… A perfect combination

There’s a few times when media pundits, so-called experts, ex-players or coaches say something that really makes them look like idiots. And to be fair, they are human just like you and me and thus prone to making mistakes or saying things that they should never say. You know what kinds of things I am […]

NFL Week 4 : Matt Ryan, Jay Cutler and the F Bomb.

Is Matt Ryan elite? I’ve argued this point ad nauseum, and almost to the point of trading blows because the term “elite” is thrown about so liberally when it comes to the quarterback position. The thinking that Ryan is overrated is based largely on the Falcon’s winless record in the postseason, and the fact the offense’s focal […]

Case Studies : Clocking a Turbo

After my diagnosis on the CT26 turbocharger, I’ve determined that the best path would be to service and sell the turbo, rather than put it on the 2JZ as a starter kit. To do this and get the maximum return however, I’ve decided to just sell as a replacement MKIII Supra turbo. Problem is, the […]

Project SC : Setting the Stance with Megan LP Coilovers

Welp, it’s about that time to get off my lazy behind and finally get some work done to the SC. While the car was lowered by the previous owner, the KYB shocks weren’t up to the kind of punishment that only Bay Area highways can provide. Where else to go for a good coilover set […]

Project SRT-4 : Back on the road and tuning with the AFC

Project SRT-4 has been on a long hiatus, and after popping the headgasket late in 2008, we’ve finally gotten back around to getting this monster back on the street. Since it’s been a few weeks since our last update, let’s run through a quick recap. Staying with the stock bottom end, we’ve chosen to run […]
