This is definitely not how I would do it, but it is at least interesting. Those are some pretty long runners… makes me question what the point is, if not frivolous chrome and bling. I will say that I had wondered about centrally mounting four throttles like this, just to solve the problem of how to sync two banks. Very […]
2 When it comes to turning wrenches, I swing hammers and throw F-bombs only when I’m lying under the car fighting seized bolts and wrestling with heavy components. Put my car on a well lit bench that I can sit beside, and you can walk my Grandma out there to sit beside me and do her word find puzzles. I’ll even […]
3 It’s always been the case, but I’m finally learning how to embrace it. World Rally Car’s are my favourite cars of all time. Some like Formula 1. Some like touring cars. Some like Group B.

6 Subaru participated in F1? I never knew. Unlike most boxer engines (which I find pretty hard to look at), this one is serious eye candy. Yeow. With a displacement of 3500cc, apparently it’s good for 650hp – not good enough to be competitive in 1990… but maybe still the greatest naturally aspirated, 180 degree engine ever. Lucky for me… I […]
