Has to be red of course.

Then when the weekend comes I'll take the red race car (Maxima) out and terrorize the streets.

When exactly do you expect that will be?

I'll have a well cared-for, lightly modded G37S Sedan 6MT for sale in about 8 years. Is that too soon?

She read it and surmising from his spelling errors that he wasn’t the brightest light in the harbor, told him that she could not accept his stickup note because it was written on a Bank of America deposit slip and that he would either have to fill out a Wells Fargo deposit slip or go back to Bank of America. Looking somewhat defeated, the man said, “OK” and left. He was arrested a few minutes later, as he was waiting in line back at Bank of America.

I gained 23 whp when I changed my airbox to a POP charger.
After tuning.... Gaddang... I wonder what a non tune will do.

On the red car the Popcharger just killed my power, car was awesome in the city, but @ WOT it was miserable, would not redline for chit.

GTK. I surpose that makes sense in the cable setup because you're basically prying against that mount during shifting. Where with a linkage it's just a ball-socket that transfers the pivot, so there's not really any force/wear there.

Strange setup this cable. Glad not to have it, have to say.

Soo more research makes me glad I haven't bought that 8.5:1 engine yet. Seems that might be way to low on Compression for the Centrifugal SC unless I go ape-chit with it and run 15+ psi and T-Trim the compressor wheel to produce better boost across the range........

Still reading though, because I think I can get it for under $2200 shipped

sure it could, but it'd throw a different code. flashing CEL= misfire. whether or not it's caused by coil or injector, the code should tell ya, I'd think.

Nice delivery on that, t_behr. Made me laugh.

I don't know bikes at all. Not one bit. But this takes a nice picture.

You know, if you turn around backwards on this bike seat, it would look like you're riding down the road with a 2 foot erection.

Agreed. 8.5:1 is pretty low for a S/C unless you go high on the boost or put a really big one that can throw a lot of volume at the engine.
