would an 04-06 supercharger fit a 99?

Nope. But why buy a $5500 supercharger for a 3G Tl, when you can just buy the right one for your car for a grand less? unless you know of a great deal... then you should tell me about it because I want one

Ummm.... I'll have to check when I get home. I just grabbed a bit and held it up to the standoff, and it looked about right.

Hehe...I couldn't find a quick deal and I couldn't wait so I just put a huge hole in my pocket for that. It was a smile now, cry later sorta thing lmao.

The car doesn't look all special or anything but it added a nice touch... You get a few looks here and there... on the freeway shortly after I left the dealership after picking up the car this sweet looking white teg passed by with a couple of dudes sticking their heads out the window checking out the car and that made it all worth it lol.

What time and where at for Uni if you're going there sleepy? Im in the area all day and I could just stay after drop by and meet you guys there.

I was wondering if you guys were familiar with the meets there...I've never taken the time to check out the meets there ever...but I do notice there's quite a large import gathering every friday and saturday right across the street from where I work at that Unidale Strip mall by that "Foodsmart" place. (I'm looking out the window as I'm typing this and there's a flea market going on right now lol)

Muscles are more Westward past Lexington avenue, towards Porky's. Love the classics that show up at night though.

Half of my relatives are more into American Muscle than Japanese Horsepower....If my uncles had more time to finish up their Camaros and Transams I'd take em out for the night. They used to run em at rock falls alot. Those things are beasts.

Here's on of em, a '79 Z28. Haven't had time to get it back running for so long it's all dusty lol.

I got the scoot running tip top, and even took some time out to give a good cleaning. It is now officially on the road!

E took her first rides on the scoot tonight but is not ready for the mean streets of Minneapolis. A few more days of riding in parking lots and she should be good to go.

I think Jorge and I should have a little scoot race since they are both 50cc...

So I got kicked out of Grumpy's. I was up there with the wife and 4 of her friends. One of them is dating someone. This dude walked up and started talking to everyone and her boyfriend said that everyone was takin and e should just keep walking. Well dude got in his face and told him to back the fuck off, so I decided that it was time for me. I got in his face and told him that it was his choice. Then he took off his wifebeater and I again told him that it was his choice - leave or me beat his ass.

Needless to say, the bouncers came out as soon as he took off his shirt. I yelled a few things at him, and there were like 15 people that held me back. Man - If you're gonna talk shit, back it up. Otherwise keep fucking stepping. Bitches,

Okay so my friend just bought a 96 integra with a CAI, dc headers, and a greddy potato can exhaust. And he's one of those people that thinks there above everyone else and everybody elses cars blow balls. I want some one to race him and shut him up. Do you think I could beat him 0-60.

If you race him and loose, you can say it was because of all the crap he bolted on. If you race and win, you can talk MAAAAAAD shit about how your shit is stock and you still whipped his ass.

As to being at the races when the cops roll up, they are going on the assumption that you were racing and are going to bust everyone they can. What you have to do is go to court and make certain he shows up and then get him to admit that he never witnessed you racing and has no witnesses to back him up. But, then you have to go through all of that mess and they can charge you with something like inciting racing or some stupid shit like that.

if he has a gsr it might not be favorable to you, but an LS or whatnot i think you got a decent chance. your car out torques his pretty hard, but he does weigh like 1000 pound less. just take it and go, if all else fails have him line up with josh

was a pretty cool night, really hoping to see TS's car. met up with some dudes, most of them drives tegs so i told em about azine and the meet. tricked out rx7 and evo there. a supra was in at one point. vandalia was blocked off by cops so they busted foodsmart at 11 and we all bailed

Lol, my car is in need of a little fender repair/adjustment and a new paint job from the previous owner. But, damn, I wish I was there to meet up with you guys.

Just curious, which generation Supra and RX7 you lookin to buy?

Anyways, If that Teg isn't a GSR or better you have a good chance. I remember a thread back in that racing section with a guy in a TL-P taking out a RSX base model which is a 2liter dual cam I-Vtec compared to the 1.8liter non-Vtec dohc in the tegs so that should give you a good Idea. He's probably only making around 10 or so more whp with those boltons.

Next time you think you want an Rx-7, let me know, I have a little story for ya.

Tomorrow is Autocross #5 for the season, again at DCTC, come on out if you want to see me munch on some BMW bumper! Cars are on track at 10, so give me a call if you want to make it and see the TL race.

Sweet man...I wish I could make it to that! Unfortunately I have more family business to attend to tomorrow. You should get someone to tape you sometime and throw some clips up on youtube. Good luck Josh!


Oh btw, the other day I spotted another 99-01 NPB TL kitted and sorta murdered out by the Mount Airy project homes...anyone from here?

There's a couple TL's that live by me that I see all the time that I want to invite here. I also saw two NSX's in Blaine today.

Well Supra i've always wanted the newest ones like a 93 up, doesn't matter what year, gotta be a turbo though which adds about 10 grand to the supra for some reason! And RX7 same thing 93 up. Josh what's the story is it good or bad?
