If you have to go a v8 and you are happy with...

nsx brakes will be more than enough to do the job, they pulled up steves starion unbeleiveably well at wakefield, even with the smaller of the 2 types.

The official word is *maybe*. Have a chat to "BILTEL"if you can track him down, he's running widebody wheels on his narrowbody race car. He sometimes posts on here, but ive seen him on the Lancerregister (ex2000 section) also. The 7" fronts will be tad to far under the guards from pi...

if you want to start eliminating on the cheap, jack up the rear wheels (CAREFULY DAMMIT!) and take it up to 90, if it still happens you have just eliminated 2 wheels, if it doesnt, theres your problem.

not every scene, if you have seen that much you should also see the pictures where they have the side of the mustang completely messed up and also a proper fucked 350 when he put it into the head on collision. Was worth the download and will probably watch it again, the drifting was real and thats t...

im not gonna preach, but to let you know, the reason i bought it was because the programming is done by only 1 person, music by another and art by a 3rd and thats almost the whole team and they charge like 12 pounds. And anyone who played it knows how good it is. Its not a starion, theres only 2 lic...

Why would anyone? they are normally mounted east-west so there's all the mounts to fab up. Then you have to find a gearbag to mate up to it. And it's only 2 litre and Toyota. Plenty of cheaper options out there. you can grab a 6 speed tiptronic from a 3sge in an IS200 but thats about it, otherwise ...

seems to be a common theme, we had to weld a nut onto the inspection hole bolt with the welder at the highest settings and pack it full of weld before i could get it off with a ~5' breaker bar.

I think mine took pretty much spot on 2.5L

g techs in themselves are pretty accurate, but it all depends on how you set them up ie they are pointing directly backwards and how the road is. I got one here and i managed a 15.4 @ 83mph iirc, i remember working out it was good for about mid 14s but i cant launch for shit, plus its not easy to la...

the ideal combination is 7" fronts and 8" fronts off the SHP wheels as they are both +18 offset. 8" or 9" rear wheels will stick out too far.
