Talking "i think i am going to throw a supra motor in my car"

This from AOL IM. Nick, if you read this--sorry dude, but this has to be made public for laughter's sake. It's all in good fun, man

creed172: yo
creed172: this is nick with the red 7
LTfarrell411: hey
LTfarrell411: what up
creed172: nm
creed172: i think i am going to throw a supra motor in my car
creed172: then ill never worry about blowing it
LTfarrell411: that's a great idea
LTfarrell411: the motor just drops right in
LTfarrell411: you have to mate it to a Kia Sephia tranny though
creed172: really?
LTfarrell411: yeah--you didn't know that?
creed172: no
creed172: i did not think it droped right in eaither
LTfarrell411: if you don't like the 13B, then why did you buy an Rx7?
creed172: cause they are great cars all around just i am afraid of blowing the motor up that is y i wanna learn to build one cause i wanna throw a single on there
LTfarrell411: we already discussed this a bit
creed172: i know
LTfarrell411: let me ask you--why do you think motors blow?
LTfarrell411: and define "blow"
creed172: to much boost
creed172: apex seal failure
LTfarrell411: right, but why do apex seals fail?
creed172: to much boost not enough fuel or just getting worn out over time like a piston ring
creed172: or over heating
LTfarrell411: ok, well, it's fairly simple to prevent all of the above
LTfarrell411: motors don't blow just for the hell of it
creed172: even when i throw a single on there and boost the **** outta it
LTfarrell411: how much?
creed172: what how much boost?
LTfarrell411: yeah
LTfarrell411: brb
creed172: much as i can
LTfarrell411: run like 17 and you'll be ok
LTfarrell411: just need knowledge
LTfarrell411: that's all
creed172: i want to run like 25
LTfarrell411: then get a supra
LTfarrell411: do you have any idea how much power 17 psi is in an fd?
creed172: or learn to build a motor
LTfarrell411: kan runs 24-26
creed172: i know
creed172: he was runnning 28 at nopi
creed172: 27.8 i think
creed172: i wanna be able to run with kan though
LTfarrell411: well
Previous message was not received by creed172 because of error: User creed172 is not available.
creed172: that is my whole thing
creed172: people are like run 15-17 and you will be fine but i want to run 20's with a 75 shot

Sounds like the kind of person who thinks an aftermarket intercooler will lower coolant temps.

Give that guy some stickers.

But the 20B didnt come in an RX7.... It came in a Family Sedan... If any thing at least the 2JZ came out of a sports car.

Ask him when the last time he oiled up his ball bearings in his mufflers was? Or when he used his auto-slide for the upper gear ratio? Or the last time he gave those injectors a good flushing with a mixture of water and zippo lighter fluid?
