No me. There is only one person I know of that has a fondness for yellow sleeves, funny or not.

Ever wonder why Randy hasn't been to Reading recently? He's been busy freelancing as an emcee at various automotive events, including this one.



I believe his stage name is "JDMR-dub" (In Japanese, it is pronounced "arrghhhhhhh")

Still not sure exactly what that thing's made of; there was some clearly incorrect information out there. One site said that it was an American EZ30 with a 3.3L stroker kit, which it's clearly not, you can tell from the pictures it's an EG33.
I am obsessed with that car, and do you see the size of the turbo on that svx!?!?

Not really, that's a terrible and tiny picture. Hey, if you think you can weld up some exhaust/intake piping, then we can turbo my 6-speed car one day. That is provided I can figure out where the burning oil is coming from. How cool of a project would that be? Or two little tiny turbos, and then change to bigger ones on a low CR build engine?

I'm going to try to find more info on that STi too when I get some time.

Lol, I've got a spare engine so I'm not too worried about the possible outcome of this little project.

5th picture down:

It's hard to see, but there's a turbo in there. The intercooler is more obvious.

If you zoom in you can see how big the turbine housing is compared to the intake manifold. It looks pretty effing big to me!

No idea man. Get some welding practice in though.
