I have one on my lawnmower. Sorry.

 

You should come out to the MANKATO meet, i'm getting this dude I know in his VOLVO C30 to come out.....get a little taste of the SAME engine thats in the RS....mmmm I5....detuned obviously for the Volvo and different in many ways, same exhaust note though!....he's got some mods I hear, I haven't seen it/drove it since last year....

 

I got a friend on mnmazda flying to Sweden to pick up his C30 Rtype (visual only, same power) on Friday. why cant he just get my RS damn it.

 

Ask him to pick one up for you.

 

I told him to pick me up a swedish chick...idk if asking for a RS is too much...

watch the vids.

 

You put up a link to those vids yesterday...no that I mind watching Ring videos but just letting ya know.

 

Yes.. cry!!

 

from people i know personally there's a ton of people that want it but don't want to take out a loan with a chance of losing their job.

i haven't put it up anywhere else yet cuz i was short on cash but today was payday so if i don't have a deductable to replace my windshield then i'm gonna throw it up on some more places.

 

Get that baby running!

 

but this one is in english.

 

its runs and drives, but needs to be tuned badly lol..

but 25% throttle and 15psi feels really nice!! can't wait for WOT and 20psi

I'd love to see Top Gear try to reach the top speed in this all new supercar.

Mosler MT900 GTR XX Twin Turbo Land Shark

TOP SPEED = 375 MPH+ WITH 118 OCTANE RACING FUEL, WITH IAD AERODYNAMIC MODIFICATIONS
LIMITED TO 305 MPH, WITH REAR WING ATTACHED, GASOLINE/METHANOL FUEL MIX
0-60 MPH = 2.5 SECONDS
0-150 MPH = 6.7 SECONDS
0-250 MPH = 17.5 SECONDS
1/4 MILE = 9.0 SECONDS
1/4 MILE SPEED = 178 MPH
ZERO TO 150 MPH AND BACK TO ZERO = 8.7
BRAKING: 250 MPH TO ZERO IN 8.5 SECONDS

The "Land Shark" weighs in at only 1898 lbs
powered by a 381 cubic inch engine V8 that delivers no less than 2500 HP!

I'm craving chinese food tomorrow night. This makes no sense whatsoever. Who's down?

 

No sure if I'll be able to make it today (Friday)

 

So Jalopnik tested the new lincoln mkt, which is a ford edge but the new one has the ecoboost twin turbo v6... I cant F'ing wait for this engine. Here is what they said in the test drive for the mkt mind you its a large ass crossover, what if they put it in a fusion...
**** im bored as **** today and no one on... well I got some new parts in, will install them tonight.

got the sti mod


OK so I have a 2008 ms3 with 35k miles on it. Powertrain warranty goes to 60k miles. Ill be there in a year or so at this current rate. I am looking at an extended PT warranty to 100k miles, but the dealer showed me 2 ( I dont think either were mazda) ext warranties but full coverage was 2100-2400. PT only with no loaner car was 1700. But I looked at mazda's website and they offer a ext PT warranty with loaner car...sooo anyway. what Im worried about is the ms3 engine blowing a rod or the turbo seals going out. so lets say its probably around 2k..do you guys think its worth it since I drive so much?

 

edit.

Well I made it home early...Let me know if you still down for chinese

 

well i got home from work and my car makes a new squeal, when going into gear. Kinda sounds like metal springs, ie. downpipe or maybe a rear motor mount... Im gonna jack the car up now :/ ******* turbo cars and all their ****. I should of bought that SS in benson

 

dev, how much would you get that w/ trade in? (or have you already gotten the vette)

house is good. it's been sucking money from me left and right... dropped near 2g for a fence that me and my old roomies (and some others) are putting in tomorrow. but thing's are coming along nicely

as for the s/c... i think i'm going to sell the parts as a kit. i've been thinking about it, i would have to pay money to get it tuned (either ryan or bryan) and probably drop more money into a clutch (and maybe flywheel). i don't have the free cash to do that anymore now that i've become fully invested with the house. on top of that... i got blindsided by one of my college loans and the montly payment has now doubled (my fault from something i deferred 2 years ago). so now i have to go searching for a reputable company that will buy out my college loans and consolidate them into one (with still having low interest rates and all the student loan perks). the extra cash from selling the s/c will give me a couching for that loan, and i'll also be able to zero out some smaller dept (small credit cards).

by doing this, hopefully in 6-9 months i'll be in a better situation to where as i can trade up to the ss/tc or what i've always wanted (and what maia wants too), solstice gxp.


sorry ryan.. i know it would have been cash comin your way.

but atleast you have a dead sexy tvs on your car and know that i would suck a **** to be able to drive that thing.

(figure of speech... put er down P)

i want chinese...

 

Where did people see turbo cobalts new for $17? Im considering it now...

 

$17? That'd be a hell of a deal. I bought my '08 in February for $19.

Couple TC's on carsoup:

1. http://myfox9.carsoup.com/used/detai...rtified=0&vc=1

NOTE: Same dealership I bought my TC from and I was actually trying to decide between this one and the one I had purchased. Car looked pretty clean, but the miles they are advertising on Carsoup are wrong. Back on February 14th, it had 2,100 miles on it. Who knows what it has on it now.

2. http://myfox9.carsoup.com/used/detai...=1&certified=0

Both cars around $19,000. I'm sure there are others too. This is just what carsoup had.

 

I got part throttle, and a little bit of WOT tuning done tonight.. No timing added yet, still need to re-install meth injection

This blower pulls harder than my 16psi and nitrous on the old blower. feels like it makes more torque quicker also (quite a bit more torque lol)
I'm also having an issue with belt slipping, boost jumps to 18psi and bounces around between 18-16psi, won't go higher, this pulley is supposed to see 20psi, might have to look into a bigger idler to hopefully make it stop..
Also I may add that my IAT2's never went above 105 degrees in boost, where my old blower IAT2 were 140ish.. but i also only ran 2nd gear out once never bothered with 3rd because second gears goes to almost 70mph and I really do not need another ticket. I will wait for the dyno to see actual temps in 3rd

Also I'm still on stock exhaust :O

 

haven't gotten the vette yet and no deal will gimme a price on my car cuz none of them have a vette for me to get so they won't take the time to look at it.

i just got a good size crack runnin across 1/4 of my windshield so i gotta replace that and keep tryin to sell it but i don't think the guy with the vette i'm lookin at has had any offers cuz he said he'd let me know.

i don't blame you sellin the s/c stuff, i think that sounds like a good move for you right now with the house and all and a solstice gxp would be pretty sweet. i'm supposed to drive one at a pontiac dealer i was goin to and lookin at the g8 gt and gxp
