  1. I have to disagree on HIDs not working well with the SC's stock housing/lens. I've got HIDs on mine and I think they're great. Going on almost 2 years now. I lowered the beam so as not to blind oncoming cars. No halogen bulb can compare. Ebay's got them for like $75 now...maybe less.

  3. That link is so old, the sub is discontinued.
  4. 125 mph in my 91 LS400 135 mph in my 92 SC400 200 mph indicated, but 180mph GPS verified, on my 2000 ZX-12R.
  5. [COUGH!] Wow...so 1 British Pound is almost 2 US Dollars. 258 Pounds for both door panels equals $509.44. Guess I need to keep saving up. LOL
  6. I'm getting 18-19 average. If I drive mostly on the freeway, then I'll get between 20-21. <_<
  7. Anyone ever heard of Bravox? I've got my 92 SC400 in the stereo shop and they couldn't put the JL Audio 10" WS6 woofer that was originally considered due to the depth of the speaker and the lack of depth under the rear deck due to the gas tank. So here's what's going into my ride. A Bravox 12" subwoofer was custom fitted on the rear deck. MB Quart Reference series 5.25" speakers in back, MB Quart Reference series 4" components in the front door, 2 seperate JL Audio amps - one for the highs, one for the sub; and a nice Kenwood double DIN custom fit up front. Clifford RSX 3.5 alarm is protecting the car. I think the place is going to seal up that 12 somehow in the back. I'll take pics and show them when I get it back in a couple days. So if anyone knows about Bravox, let me know would ya?
  8. Not me, dood! I've got a 92 SC400 now that's in the shop getting pimped with audio gear. Currently driving a 91 LS400 that's only got 91k on the motor. We'll have to get together sometime. I'd like to see how that tranny of yours is working. Was thinking about putting that dragon torque converter in. Did you do it, or did you have someon else do it? If so, how much did it cost? Let me know if that back alley race with you and the Subie ever materializes. I'll come and watch. I'll video it if you want. :) Those WRX Sti models will run 4.6 - 4.9 second 0-60s according to the magazines. If it's nice out, I might even bring my ZX-12R and you can really see how slow cars are compared to bikes. LOL Peace!
  9. Yep. The WRX is AWD and Turbo. The WRX Sti is one step above that with a little more power and the ability to adjust power output through the wheels via a center differential. http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=htt...imagesr&start=1
  10. Watch out for the Subarus WRX-Sti also at the start. Not only are they usually modded, but they're all wheel drive too and guys just redline and drop the clutch. Next thing you know you're playing catch up. I had a 2004 Z06. Tough off the line to launch to the fullest, but do it right and it was gone. Too bad mine turned out to be a lemon. Had it for 15 months. I miss it. :cries:
  11. Those Porsche Turbos are all wheel drive. Helps in getting off the line tremendously. As long as the clutch holds up...which I heard those Porsches are strong. It's the 4 wheel drive Lambos that wanna break if you drive them hard off the line.
  12. No apologies necessary! I always like reading stories like that. Nice effort!
