The TSRM seems to say that grinding/honing crank journals is okay. http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=EM&P=83

OP: What I read from your first post is that ignorant people getting in your face makes you angry. I can think of stupider things to get angry about. Let everybody talk about how they're more mature than you and would have never reacted - talk is cheap. Maybe you shouldn't have reacted quite...

I'm surprised that the bumper reinforcement bar dented like that. I guess its designed to do some energy absorption with all of those funky dents and bends that come in it from factory. Is there any damage to the area around where the reinforcement bar bolts up? Have you taken it off to see...

So has anybody actually installed a new set of these bushings in the rear subframe? I'm looking for info/pointers on how to actually remove the old ones. Looks like its going to be the opposite of fun...

As long as natural selection naturally selects a telephone pole and not somebody's rear bumper. Purposely removing safety features because "you're better" is foolish. No two ways about it.

I completely agree with Grandavi on this one. Driver training is abysmal these days, and imho a little bit more prudence would prevent the vast majority of accidents. I'm all for spirited driving, but don't do it 2 feet behind me or anybody else. Respect other vehicles space. CiFy6, I...

I believe the flat side is top, goes flat against frame. The curve on the bottom matches the contoured steel plates that go between nuts and subframe bushings.

I'm not quite sure whether or not I dig the length, but it has a really finished look to it. Nice job. Was that a one off?

The price point doesn't seem all that appealing. The website says 2,500 for that 66 series. Seems steep for the relatively modest power goal of 375Hp... maybe I'm missing something?

Strangest thing I found in mine was a couple of +18 year old resumes, couple of pay stubs, and a letter from a collection agency under the drivers seat (on top of the random assortment of coins, nut drivers and plain old dirt).

I bought a set of the rear subframe bushings from Ronnie a while back but haven't installed them. I've realized I'm confused on one point: Do these bushings replace the stock rubber that gets sandwiched between the subframe and body? Ie. part 52272 seen in...
