You know, I once brought home a Miata transmission in the passenger seat of my old Mk3... small world.

One of them is a *little* bit lighter than the other though :p Besides, how else are you going to? While surprisingly roomy, there's not much room in the trunk. Perhaps if mine was empty I could.

I'm not sure yet what I'm going to do...if I want to use both as oil coolers (overkill), save one for the Miata when it gets turboed (meh) or run the blue one as an oil cooler and grey one as power steering cooler (most likely).

recently did some front bumper license space fill-in body work. I'm not a body guy, but took time to talk to shop owners and read some threads. here's a link to various pics at various stages, but you get the idea. I hope this give some folks ideas or helps them in some way. enjoy!

clean supra you got there! thoughs custom headers, OBX, or pacesetters? blue vavle covers stand out and look nice against all the polishing you did!

Nice looking car you have there man, I'm surprised you don't have a build thread posted (if you do, post a link...). Really clean, and a nice restoration it looks like.

For those who want to see the bumper fill end result:

thx! My build has been taking so long, i felt it not needed till i was done....for now, i'll just update the photobucket album as i go.
Basically what I'm doing. Would be done by now, but I bought a house, so that obviously eats a lot of the budget. The car is happy to be indoors though.

Anyway, looking forward to seeing the end result (if there is an "end" to a Supra build/restoration), keep it up. :)

Still tearing the old motor out of mine, but idk if anyone has done plasti dip but here's my experience with it
Did you use the plastidip for the entire bottom of the car? At first I thought it was a Mk2, kinda neat.

Thanks, my car looks like yours, cleaned up antilag wiring today!

You know, not to be a negative nancy, but isn't lighting fires under your car a bad idea? I'd be concerned with melting something, or frying a brake/fuel line/wiring under the car...

Anyway, I cleaned up my old suspension and wheels/tires yesterday. Tedious work, but they cleaned up pretty nicely. :)
