• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

    How to install your WBS Intercooler

    Time to install your newly acquired intercooler! First and foremost use common sense and don't skimp out or use short cuts. Secondly, any modifications that took place I did as I deemed fit, you may decide to route your hoses a different way, not cut a piece that I did, etc. This write-up is...

    Question about LTFTs

    Just got done installing my WBS intercooler on the car. I ended up deleting the EGR and I am currently still running a stock PCM. (I've got an Intense tuned PCM ready to go in once I get my injectors) At idle with the engine cold, LTFTs are around -15 to -16.4 bouncing around between those two...

    V2LAB "Mystery Meat" in Orlando, FL

    There's a huge show occurring this Sunday (April 14th) in Downtown Orlando from 10-4. I will be attending, along with a few other nasty cars. A friend turned me on to this show, and we will be caravaning with his club NFCS. Should be fun playing with the Twin turbo 370z and the R33 Skyline...

    Help! Fuel pressure drops to 0 and hard starting

    I recently installed a ZZP modded fuel rail I purchased off of a forum member. The first few days everything ran fine. Then suddenly, I was having to crank the motor over for a few seconds to get it to start. Now I have to let the fuel pump prime for a few seconds, then crank the car for 2-4...

    What size AN fittings for fuel rails?

    I've got a set of modded zzp rails coming in, but without the stainless fuel line that connects the 2 rails over the blower. What size AN fittings/hose do I need to order to make my own? I believe its -6AN, but I want to make sure before I order. Also, any pictures of AN setups would be...

    Machinegunsquid's Sonic Operation Black things!

    My bike, The Fat Panda (lots of pictures)

    So, back in December '11 I got to hang out with a few friends on their bikes, and got to put around on one of their new 2011 Ninja 250s. From that point on I was hooked. So I went to my motorcycle class, and got my license. Spent a few weeks checking craigslist for bikes in my budget (under...

    My lady got mad and hit me

    So my old lady (19 year old GF) got really pissed at me tonight. Not sure what it was over really, she just came in screaming at me. I said, and I quote "I honestly don't know why you are so angry at me, but you need to go to bed and sleep it off" *Whack* She didn't slap me, but hit my in my...

    Thoughts on a new car

    So the GTP has been gone for awhile now...and yes I do miss it. The LT1 Wagon is fun, but with over $1000monies in body damage, and it getting 15mpg..it's more of a workhorse/truck than anything. The Eclipse GS is super fun, and gets 40mpg, but it's going off with the GF in about a month or...
