  1. These types of threads are usually on other forums; I have yet to see one here, so I figured I'd start one. If one actually exists, then a mod can feel free to delete or lock this one. So, whom did I see exiting the Majestic City cinema wearing an AutoLanka polo shirt? Didn't realize such things existed; had a 9th gen Civic on the back, if memory serves.
  2. It would be nice to attend one of these if it actually occurs while I am still around.
  3. yeah, i'm the guy with the white rwd corolla from the old car club meets at school. didn't realize you were graduating this semester; congrats! i discovered this place a while ago but didn't feel like registering until recently.
  4. gotta say, getting clean paint and body work done in lanka isn't cheap or easy, so nice job getting that done. while everyone has their own sense of style, i am curious as to why you went for body mods before performance mods. you say that your body kit has aerodynamic benefits, but few companies bother to get wind tunnel data or even consider aerodynamics during the design of their kits. where'd you get your info from? i would love to see how the brake ducts are set up. i am surprised you did not spring for the nismo lsd, considering it would last longer and would not require ring and pinion modification. speaking of which, did you seriously grind down the ring and pinion rather than shim the plates? that may compromise the strength of the setup, but hey, it's your ride. the phantom-grip style lsds don't have a great rep in the states because they don't last as long as even a vlsd; one can hope it lasts for a while in your setup. whom did you choose for your ecu? i know jwt has cracked the us-spec ecu, but getting new programs burned to their ecus isn't cheap, so i guess you are using something else for ease of tuning. finally, why go with a header and intake + other n/a mods if you were planning to go turbo to begin with? that's quite a bit of money spent on stuff that you won't be able to use once you go for boost. it may have been easier to get a pulsar gti-r front clip and swap that sr20det in there. doing things differently is cool, but it requires a lot of prior planning and understanding in order to properly execute it, and with a distinct lack of aftermarket parts supplies and availability in lanka, it can't be easy, or cheap. edit: noticed you have your parts list in your profile. that ems has a bunch of features; it's not popular in the states but it looks good on paper. why choose that over, say, autronic or motec or wolf? the turbo strikes me as sounding oversized, but since i have no idea what size the compressor wheel and housings are, i can't say for sure. what i can say is that's an impressive amount of cash being dumped into a sunny; more power to you.
  5. wow, you dropped a ls1 in there? just wow. that trap speed says a lot about where your car will soon be... planning on daily driving it?
