It's gonna be fun, just an "at the track" kind of fun, not a "let's go for a drive" kind of fun.
I could never gut my supra, it's too comfy... and I am far too fat and lazy to not have all those comforts. It's half the reason I bought the car  | |

you can get fairly cheap aluminum tubing, thats what i plan to use. or, for a bit more $$, you can get stainless and polish it up a bit.

making all vac. lines out of piping... haha that'd be one crazy fucking job. cost too would be $$$$$$

I thought about making some radiator hardpipes for my car at work? But i dunno, i got to thinking they are made of rubber because otherwise when the engine torqued over it wouldnt give at all. I guess the little bit of rubber hose on each end to connect it would be enough give? What do you guys think?

dude just um use zap straps to hold em on i have never ever had a prob
one when you use a vac line cap ont he intake many it self then i sujest you use crazy glue or some of that nature, most of the time you will nto blow off a cap on teed vac line that are long caus eht epersu will not be as great freather doen the lien of the vacume hose
