the JDM 1JZ front bumper lip has two holes, one each below the foglamp location. From what I've heard the two duct holes suppose to aid in cooling and ventilates the front brakes. The material of the lip is the same as US spec OEM rubber.

Go to Supraforums and check the stickies under the general discussions forum.

I'll probably be attending the friday dyno, Sat. show'nshine, and maybe sunday drag. I sure hope there will be a lot more mk3s that show up to represent!!! See yall there!

I believe the other hose for the PS should be approx. 3/8 " . Please double check yourself to be sure. Use your open end wrench to approximate the nipple size.

sounds good guys, my pearl should be up & Legit to drive pretty soon.:naughty:

You can try vatozone , Oh'Really, or pepgirls for some headlight restoration kit made by Permatex I think, cost about 12 bucks. It contains 4 1000~2500 grit sandpapers and a bottle of polish with cloth. I've tried it on my fog lights and they worked pretty well! HTH.:icon_razz

"Fix you" by Coldplay. Before any of you say that song is gay... remember that majority of time spent on the MK3 is "fixing it".:icon_conf

:icon_razz Nice to see there are some mk3 owners in houston... Once I get mine running I hope to meet up with some of you peeps.:naughty:

Turbonetics 60-1, T4 P-trim with Supra turbine elbow housing.(for now). May switch to different turbine housing and external WG in the future. Cost me an arm & a leg, 1K to be exact. I like the warranty on the Turbonetics turbo, 1 year and no questions asked. Like the polished comp. housing...
