Surprisingly..when my Prelude was stolen 3 years ago I was able to use Receipts of $3,000 in OEM Honda Parts and Labour/Machining etc (i left out the performance parts like pistons/cams etc..) towards the claim payout. I ended up getting $16000 after 3 years, and I paid 16,500+tax in the first...

It has a knock sensor, and the ecu has programming to retard ignition timing and add fuel if it sense knock. Also the MR2 is turbo...not a lot of flexibility in octane there...even if they programmed fuel and ignition to respond to a knock sensor you would likely get compression/heat...

You'll find people like that everywhere, owning all different types of cars. Pretension cetainly isn't car specific; I'd just brush it off and suddenly develop a very smug look on my face, cause you can own the same car as him and don't have to wear it like a resume.

Ha, sorry I copied it off Google..which means I searched it misspelled hehe.. I just remember reading the article in ROB magazine about Midland and mentioning the SLR. Anyway if I had such great performance machines I'd be taking them to the track too :) very cool. Emailing...

SLRs? Damn is Alex Schnaider coming to the track day? Stu if there is still room, I'm in I'll fill out the form today..I'm getting my brakes and fluids all done this week. I will need an instructor.

yummy..that's around the corner from me! I also like the Rosebud at Queen and Bathurst.

Did you check the code? If so what was it?

yeah...think so. XGA speculation is somewhat true but the end of the S2000 probably isn't

No it's not, it's a photoshop I realized. the windshield wiper is floating on the glass...

Agreed, I'm no scientist, just generally I wouldn't recommend it for reasons of consistency. It's all oil at the end of the day, but in refinement different detergents etc are being used by each company, and you don't know how they may interact with each other, although I would assume the...

Is that really a picture of it? Or a photoshop?

High-end: Scaramouche (not the grill), Sursur Now Toronto just put out a 50 essential restaturants guide http://www.nowtoronto.com/issues/2006-03-30/goods_foodfeature.php hit that up

yo man...Phil and I are good friends, been to his shop many times. I used to live in Waterloo a few years ago and met him when I was destroying MKIII supras, I was pretty good at rolling them lol. Anyways yeah I've seen the track car in progress should be fun. I e-mailed him he might bring the...

Do you know what's in there now? If it's conventional non-synthetic oil you don't want to start putting synthetic in there unless you do a full flush. That being said I wouldn't mix other synthetics either. If it's conventional oil I wouldn't care as much about mixing it if you only need a...

Oh an on Ultra 94, unless you're running forced induction or much higher compression than stock, forget about it. The car is rated for 91 and that's all you need. More octane than you need is harded to burn, and the engine can experience worse performance, possible hesitation on hard...

Oil: I use German Formula Castrol Syntec 0w30 in my supra, it has excellent properties and is good for all year round. Oil Drop Forums have more info on it. And it's Green! :p I beleive most there recommend it over Mobil 1, and it's cheaper and you can get it at Canadian tire..just make sure...

Stu can you email the forms to [email protected] ? I have it from the nsx mailing list but I don't have access to that e-mail @ work. Thanks! Also do you want me to see if anyone off the supra forums in the canadaian forum wants to join? How many more people do you need?

So the 14th as in good friday? hmmm.. edit: oh I see the e-mail now, thanks stu, I'll see if i can get my brakes done while I'm gone to NYC this weekend and I think I can make it

In open loop? I don't think so. Long term fuel trim etc is for closed loop only..unless i'm smoking crack open loop /WOT doesn't adjust

Mine came with it, I'm more against test pipes more for cops than anything else.

Oh I agree, a wideband before a cat is much better/accurate.

Test pipes will change your A/F ratio due to the change in exhaust flow. Not recommended unless you have tuning tools and are heading to a dyno shortly. You can take the risk that it will be okay, but I doubt you want to run the risk. I run a 'high flow' cat just to avoid harassment from cops...

Nice numbers! I like the nice flat tq curve and consistent power. Now get up here the 400whp already :p The fact that you have no reference for the A/F ratio is not so cool though, if I were you I would go throw down another run at a place with a tail pipe sniffer for piece of mind, you don't...

MR layout is a big factor in keeping decent traction vs. a FR layout off the line anyway, trust me I know! :p

Well you need full engine management..and sock filters or a custom airbox...it's also LOUD AS HELL.. How much are you modifying the engine? there's a lot of things to do before ITBs are warranted. Plus many would argue a well designed plenum can do the job just fine and be easier to tune
