To Ray. Who completed my Manual conversion very quick prompt like. And wow, am I impressed! The difference between driving a 328i Auto and 328i manual is phenomenal!! It really does noticeably accelerate a lot faster than the auto, feels a lot more aggressive too.. I think thats the word I want. Yeah, aggressive is the right word. I've lost some top end but Id say that's the different ratios, Could hit the end of the clock down a hill with some wind behind me in the Auto but I havent completely clocked her out over the weekend due to all the rain. Have been at 220km/h at around 5k revs, and it gets there damn fast too. Not 100% sure on the diff ratio, though I remember Ray saying something like a 3.7 something?? Maybe a 3.63? But anyway, Ive noticed that with my typical driving, which is around town and 50km zones, I can sit in 5th gear - 1500 revs, 15 km/L on the fuel eoconometer (yes I made that word up) where in the auto it would consistently be around 10Km/L in a 50 zone. So I'm liking the current diff ratio to be honest. Spoke to Brian yesterday and he made reference to a 3.15 diff ratio, which I'm taking into consideration, but for now the poor mans supercharger is really doing it for me! Im finding any excuse to drive now, even more than I used too! Need some groceries, I'll drive! Mrs wanted to go shopping, I'll drive! Mates wanted to go to town, I'll drive! Sister needs a ride to the mall, I'll drive!! On Saturday alone I clocked up 200km's!! :D:D All in all. I'm more excited than ever when I get to drive somewhere. My face is split ear to ear when I change gears at my OWN pace, not the bloody Auto boxes pace. I love it. Think I'll keep her a while longer. Thanks Ray.

I'm calling your bluff

Just sit behind the car and have someone open the throttle up in neutral (?)

Probably, opens in the higher rev's I'd say. Like my GTZ did

Sick! Why would you go from a JZ to a 3S? Doesn't make sense in my head. Confirms they're crazy

At the same time?

Sex. Top Secret built the V12 supra off the top of my head. I wouldn't be surprised at all if they also built the RB supra. They're crazy!

Lock it

Its got that little bit of a street fighter look to it. Its aite

$30 court costs per ticket

I just wait till they're through to the district then pay em $5 a week. $30 if I'm feeling generous

That 2JZ r32 skyline on trademe a while back was pretty cool. Someone in Japan has done a RB26 supra also. I swear some people just have too much money

Im thinking this Gold. OR resprayed in Time attack. IE TE37's minus a spoke (lower pic)

Mmm 17x8 ET34 Drift Teks on the way

Not sure if you're taking the piss..

Edit, no longer needed. Sourced some blank not yet drilled rims

This next:

A 1000hp 2JZ is common these days with those crazy Japanese tuners and whatnot. I'd say its more the figure that matters to the person that built the car. Its not a car that would get driven much, and 1000hp sounds so much cooler than a cool usable 700hp. I think its an insane car. Something that I'd build in need for speed or something. Where I can pretend I have lots of money to build and drift muscle cars
