    THE Z06 VETTE may be the best bang for your buck

    Guys, Give me a break ! You both keep taking 1 model year and comparing prices of 1 model, of 1 year. What I said was the Vette has the 1 # resale value of all cars period. I meant overall thru out the years. Vette's have been around Way longer than , Supra's or NSX's. Useing your example's...

    THE Z06 VETTE may be the best bang for your buck

    It's not a right or wrong thing. There are X amount of cars. 1 of them has to have the highest resale value. The Vette by fact is it. My post was in no way directed to you or what you said. Just the facts.

    THE Z06 VETTE may be the best bang for your buck

    Huh, I'm sorry but guys...... The Vette is the #1 car for resale Value period, American or Other Period. You can't just go buy a Z06 at a Chevy Dealer for sticker. You either pay sticker and wait about 6 months - 8 months or pay way over sticker and buy it now. My Favorite Vette...

    Altering the MAF on a sc400 or Soarer?

    Yeah I have, Unichip can do it to. Not alot know how much the Unichip can do. It can change anything the ECU can do. Did you feel a big difference in the power losing the MAF. Did you have the one like I have or the Metal one with the screen ? What year is your SC ?

    Altering the MAF on a sc400 or Soarer?

    Ok this is what I'm talking about. Not removing it but replacing it with the VVTI 98 and newer model MAF ( see last Pic ) . The cup shape MAF has to be one the most restrictive thing on the motor. Imagine that the space inbetween the fins ( Pic 1 ) is the Max amount of air that the engine can...

    Altering the MAF on a sc400 or Soarer?

    I know people who did this on other cars including Toyotas and lexus and the driveability Sucks. It stummbled and surged. If you tune for full throttle, works great at full throttle. Sucks at everything else.

    nitrous on a 92 sc400?

    About the heater situation : 1. We are human and we do make mistakes. I would rather have a bottle heater that shut's down if a mistake is made. A short or crossed wire could have caused the same problem. 2. I posted that so that others would know potentially how dangerous a 1500 lbs...

    nitrous on a 92 sc400?

    Sorry I left something out. Not the bottle that is unsafe, it's the Heaters that do not have the safety measures that the Zex heaters have.

    nitrous on a 92 sc400?

    In reguards to the Bottle blow up, there are a number of incidents where the Bottles have blown up like a bomb. I have heard that the NX and NOS kits have the worst bottles for this. The Zex bottle has a timer or temp sensor to shut down. Also a blow down valve would prevent this.

    5.8 Liter 500 bhp Lexus (N/A)?

    I was kinda thinking the same thing, sorta. My $ .02. You could build with Stock Crank ( lighten ever so sligthly, Knife edged, and other minor crank work. Use Max Overbore that stock sleeves would take Custom pistons (JE, Aries or someone). Have a stroked Rod ligther than stock.(...

    Altering the MAF on a sc400 or Soarer?

    Yeah I know the best way is to try. Don't need to call the dealer and ask if intakes are same. The intake tubes are different.

    Altering the MAF on a sc400 or Soarer?

    I have a MAF off of a 98 VVTI motor. It goes thru the intake, like the set up for the SRT intake and GS400. The connector is the same but, I have not built a pipe and tried it yet, I wonder if it will read ok with the 97 ECU and 98 MAF ? Anybody know or thought about this before ?

    Spark Plug Diagnoses

    Lex I think the one step coolder plugs are the thing to run on Boost or Nitrous. Are the Supra plugs one step colder ? I was running some Zex colder plugs that I got from Zex. They also had some kind of sheild or something is case of detonation, that no plug material would come apart in you...
