    Help requested identifying parts (w/pictures)

    Hey guys, I have some parts laying around that I need help determining what they are. The first one I think is an interior part that maybe goes somewhere under the steering wheel maybe near the crotch vent. The second I believe has to do with the side-view mirror. A good virtual...

    NGK Platinum life expectancy?

    I just installed a set of NGK Platinum plugs in my '87 turbo. What mileage should I anticipate changing them at? Also, what mileage should I anticipate replacing my MSD 8.5mm wires? I put those one with the spark plugs last weekend.

    Shops in Oak Ridge/Knoxville area

    Hey guys. I just moved to Oak Ridge, TN about a month ago and need to find a local shop that's got Supra or Toyota experience. Not just piddly stuff. I may need a headgasket swap, so I need a place that knows what they're doing. Can anyone recommend some? Thanks.
