I just don't want to install it because it isn't easy to comeby. The rear is even harder to get. Brian knows, I'm 1 of 3(that I know of) in america who has it.

Yes, I am a first time homebuyer and yes, it's a fixed rate. F that adjustable crap. My co-worker is going to lose his home because of that.

Brian, I'm not bummed that I didn't get the house. I guess the other people made a better offer than I did. I wasn't 100% excited about getting it anyways even though it had almost everything I wanted. 3 bed 2 bath and 2 car garage for the queen.

Sorry to hear about the house situation - that sucks. It was frustrating for us to, very stressful. Hang in though, it's all worth it.

As for the car, how much hp do you think it puts out currently?

Yea, I can't wait 'til I finally find a place. Then I can go nuts and start tearing stuff down. Then work on the supra again.

As for the car.... it has never been on a dyno, but with the current mods it should put out around.... 260-270ish..... The engine is in need of a rebuid to actually see those numbers. I don't need alot of HP just a mild mannered 300hp or 300lbs of torque and I'll be happy.

I love your vette. Back in my day most of the hot cars were just primered because we spent every dime to make it go faster. We just primered the car to keep rust off of it.
