    very shiny supra alert

    Oh I did. I just detailed it at my friends house and took the freeway home. It was about a 10 mile drive and so i took out my fair share of bugs on the way. They are not deep in there, just very recent after detailing. Haha

    very shiny supra alert

    The trick is to have someone side swipe you pulling out of a parking spot and get a free bumper repaint.... Thats why mine looks good. haha. (had it repainted at the dealership courtesy of the lady that hit me)

    7M-GE "Factory Refurbished" engine

    7M-GE "Factory Refurbished" engine

    I didn't want to start a new thread so I'm bringing this one back up. I was reading on a few BHG jobs that it's not smart to use the stock bolts for the head, and that you should get ARP bolts, but wouldn't putting new bolts in require a new head gasket because the seal would be broken? (I...

    7M-GE "Factory Refurbished" engine

    I read a bunch of the FAQ articles and one had something about rebuilt 7M-GTE engines not needing a retorque(for the head). My neighbor is the guy that sold me my supra. He had a factory refurbished engine put in at 60k miles (car currently has 91thousand on it). My questions is do i need to...
