New Minilite/Wantanabe style rim

actually a 240SX transmission can mat to an L series engine with minor mods... and they do make sequential trannies for 240SX's.... So.. you can put a 6 speed sequential tranny into a Z car... and a light mod to the bell housing and driveshaft, it bolts right in... almost.

.. yes I lost my job.. and yes I am sad... But after I sold that seat for $500 and I got such a good deal on these wheels, i couldn't pass them up. ( oh and that DVD player I installed month's ago :nervous: ) Plus the tires I had sitting in my basement from a previous parts car I had.. back when i had my accident a year ago *cough* i know... they were BRAND new tires though!! Soo.. total.. for the wheels.. and putting on the tires and getting them balanced.. and the lug nuts... $120! I am so thankful !!

Toyota Supra Injectors - 440cc - Um.. any performance gain in an N/A???
Hey guys... I am slowly building up my parts for a kick arse turbo conversion... my latest bunch of parts i just purchased was a set of low impedance 440cc injectors from a Toyota Supra Turbo.. Now i still have a LONG way to go, and alot of parts to get untill my conversion is complete.. but untill then.... if I hook up those 440cc injectors and a new fuel rail.. will I be looking at any performance gains? I have a stock N47 engine.. with just intake and exhuast... But i figured.. ehh.. why not give it a try... maybe I can use these now... If i am not looking at any performance gains with pluggin the injectors straight in.. how can I achieve some performance gains?

De-varnish the valve cover?
aircraft stripper is a really powerful chemical available at your local auto store, or Wal-Mart, which basically strips anything and everything off of metal... used for removing paint from cars and stuff. But be very careful! it ate through 2 layers of rubber gloves, and disintigrated a plastic brush I had... very strong stuff... but does miracles! I used Dupli-Color Textured Metallic coating.. also available at nearly all auto stores

I'm so proud of this valve cover... hehe spent hours and hours on it.. I used aircraft stripper and a toothbrush on the inside of the valve cover.. and it looks spotless... just in case any flakes of hardened oil and varnish breaks off and damages my baby!!
