I haven't posted in forever, the supra has been running great ha. However, my buddy bought a 1967 vespa 150cc 2 stroke and we are having a hard time passing Az emissions. It failed on carbon monoxide barely, baseline is 5.0 and it read 5.5x while the hydro carbon was way under the baseline. I...

So, it's never ending ha. The steering rack bushings on the ole ladies 95 lexus sc300 are shot and need replacing. I've found a place that sells poly bushings but the vendor is a total joke and is hit or miss on receiving parts based on forum reviews. Lexus doesn't sell OEM bushings separately...

Throwing this out there incase there's any mac guys familiar with the slightly older stuff. Working on a friends g4 tower AGP graphics all stock. Trying to install an airport card(Not Extreme), with the card installed it would not boot at all, powers on and chimes then that's it. Card is...

I usually don't buy games launch day but I had to grab this and it's been awesome so far! I got it on ps3($55 with amazon $20 bonus) and it comes with a pc/mac Steam download which is cool even though my macs can't run it ha. Within the first few minutes it had me LOL'ing and it's kept up the...

There was a thread on another forum that brought up a lot of questions, I was wondering what people think here. Supposedly Tokico does not warranty their products directly. You must make a warranty claim with the vendor who you purchased from. I know a lot of us buy stuff online or some of...

Ok, The 95 sc300 (2jzge) failed really bad the first time around. Test 1: Results / Allowed HC .94 / .80 CO 2.37 / 12.00 NOX 4.43 / 2.00 I had 2 new magnaflow cats welded in and re-test. Test 2: HC .20 / .80 CO 3.23 / 12.00 NOX 2.21 / 2.00 (ahhhh .2!) Checked the timing and it...

A buddy of mine has a launch day ps3 that is just starting to act up and thought I would ask around for any info. He says the video distorts and just shows color artifacts. The backgrounds and stuff are just unrecognizable but usually the text is clear. He's reset all the settings and tried...

Ok, we got the 95 sc300 and it's been awesome with a few minor issues here and there. However, this oil lose issue has me confused. It doesn't leak oil anywhere that I can see. No drip spots and I've been under it a few times and see no sign of oil leaking. The oil level will stay Full for...

Ok, I used to do desktop/network support back in the .com days but I'm way out of practice and out of touch these days. I've had an on-going issue that has been bugging me for a while that I finally want to figure out. Basic problem is if I got a site such as supramania.com, a site that I...

The sc300 has been great so far just a few minor kinks to work out and one of them is the power mirrors don't work at all on either side. I've had the door panels off to fix broken door latches and checked the switches and everything looked fine. I searched on other forums and everyone points...

I've been looking for a car for the ole lady and she saw a lexus SC400 for a pretty good deal. I call the guy and it's not some out of the country wire transfer deal and sounded legit. I'm still very hesitant to even go look at it however. I googled his phone number and he's had 3 pages...

I finally got my 240v compressor outlet wired in so the compressor is alive and I bought an Ingersal Rand Thundergun to go with it. I am now shopping for an air hose. The thundergun has a 1/4 fitting and a 3/8 hose minimum spec. I'm wondering should I step up with a 1/2 hose with 3/8 fitting...

So, the wifey has finally gotten her license and is looking to get a car or maybe SUV for sub $3k. She loves the old 60-70s mustangs but at that price I can't see it happening. She sorta likes the 90s mustang and I've seen the v8s going for that price range. We actually went to look at a 95...

Ok, I was talking at work and threw this scenario out there and stirred up a big debate so I thought why not bring it here. The fight takes place in the ocean and assume kong can swim(he has in a movie). I see Kong as coming out the winner here. He has the monkey feet that can grab jaws while...

Ok before I start, I wasn't ticketed tonight and I never have been ticketed for anything in my life. I'm driving my daily route in my jeep which goes through a 25mph construction zone. I always slow down and go the speed limit I don't mess around. I get near the cones and check my speed and...

So a friend at work has been looking for a part time job on craigslist of all places. He found something and was telling me about this awesome new job he found. The ad was for a guy who lives out of the country and is coming here for several months and will need a driver 3 days a week. He will...

Ok, here's something I've never paid attention to until just now. Do we have any grease fittings(stock parts), I haven't noticed any and looking through the TSRM maintenance operations doesn't show any. With my jeep I hit 7 fittings whenever I do an oil change, all of which are easy to spot...

I was recommended Green grease and have never herd of it before and wondering if it is a quality product or just a grease gimmick? Just looking at the website makes me want to run away from it. I'm just looking for an all around grease for u-joints and such on various vehicles. Green Grease...

I'm wondering what's going on with my transmission here. It some times doesn't likes to downshift into 2nd no matter what speed/rpm I am at. An example being, I pull into my drive way and coast along from maybe 15mph and try to go into 2nd and it wont. I eventually almost come to a dead stop and...

The PO removed almost all traces of the windshield washer setup and I've decided to finally add it back. I've got almost everything back in except the hoses that go to the front nozzles. I found this diagram which helped a lot, I need the top part of the setup now. I have the hose leading...
