jordan080303 — Sun, 30 Nov 2008 00:33:31 GMT

I need to get ahold of a black driver's side door handle for a 2g ('95) Talon.

This is for a white Talon and the door handle is flat black plastic.

If you are not sure what style I am referring to I'll post a picture tomorrow.

BMW'S

Costas14 — Wed, 26 Nov 2008 03:49:38 GMT

Both are sadly sold, the e30 m3 just left in october, me and my cousin will be acquiring one in a different color over the winter, we kept the 540il wheels we put on and the mille miglias, and the recarro seats. She had about 76k miles

The 750il has 265k miles and it was the fastest thing on the highway, ive gotten the 95 gsx up to 130 on the highway and this car i had it all the way to electric cut which is 155

And a photo of the 1.8 with the e30m3 before i had purchased the 3000gt/gsx/gst

SuperCharger

Costas14 — Wed, 26 Nov 2008 00:21:02 GMT

It's almost done. My other blowers are at work but these are the ones at home, i just need another weld on the wastegate flange. I also am waiting for my silicone elbows and i will have to make a T so the wastegate pipe connects with the outlet back to the throttle body as i wasnt aware that the wastegate on superchargers doesnt work like turbos. You will have to use your stock intake hose. This one has been rebuilt but i havent cleaned her up yet. I will offer these painted, either the stock gray color or red, blue etc. This one will be red. Ive been a bit sick so i havent been able to work on it a lot. When i get to the shop in the morning i will try and finish up the piping.

Hood will need a hoodscoop to clear this. Only downside of it. I did run it succesfully with a ford t bird eaton m90 but because it lacked any wastegate or vacum ports or anything it would just keep climbing boost. So i had to get a later generation eaton supercharger which is not so easy to work with. The ford t birds came with an oulet box, which this has a bunch of different outlets under it and a wastegate and etc etc. I know the pulley controls the boost but the more you revved it the higher it climbed on the ford models and they were the first gens of the eaton m90 so they had some issues.

BTW those are mille miglia wheels of my 1988 e30 m3, if you want to see a pic ill post it up

Hydrogen Booster

http://waterpoweredcar.com/hydrobooster.html

I've been looking into this for a while and I must say it sounds attractive.
I'd go out and make me one but since with out any type of tunning device it wont do anything really..or will it? A cheap octane booster at least i guess. I dont know what do you guys think. I'm interested what some of you think about this. Like redline, caffinetrip, partsguy, really would like to hear what your views are.
