    Man... I have gotten more shit for this haircut. ... My buddy asked me if I just went in and asked for an 82nd! Yes, I'm stationed at Bragg. Pedal bike and snowboard come from living in Denver! Not driving it wouldn't bother me if I could ride my bike in to work, but I'm still recovering from...

    Ok, so the exhaust got here yesterday, and it's awesome... However, I got held up at work yesterday so I started late and and only managed to get the DP on...

    Trudat. I'm already in for a good chunk of change and haven't even driven it other than on the way home from the purchase! It'll be worth it though. Check the resto thread later this week for exhaust and brakes. A door will hopefully following if a pending deal goes through!:icon_bigg:

    Watch out for those "small oil leaks." I thought my OP gasket leak was going to be a relatively simple fix until I looked in the manual. I stopped by the stealership just to see how brutal it would be since I may not be able to find the 5ish hours it will take to disassemble the entire front of...

    Thanks. The engine was recently rebuilt and has less than 40k miles on it. I also picked up a "spare" turbo with it. The biggest issue is undoing the half-assery that is present throughout the car. It's a lot of little stuff, mostly. Missing or loose bolts, DIY wiring, etc. Calipers and rotors...

    Pretty much a wasted day under the car today. The torx oilpan bolts were all on so tight we couldn't get a single one to move, much less 24 of them. It seems that whoever replaced the block just impacted them on, which could be the cause of the leak. On the plus side there was a lot more oil in...

    Fair warning: I will ramble, so if you don't want to hear about how I got it then skip down to the pictures. *** I picked up this red(ish) '90 7M-GTE from a kid off Craigslist. I was looking around for anything that would roll and was less than $2k, when I found a Supra with a recently rebuilt...

    Hey everybody, my name is George and I just bought my first Supra on the 23rd of December. I have owned a 1986 Mustang GT and a 2002 VW GTi, the latter of which was my baby until the wife made me sell it so we wouldn't have to move two cars cross-country. :cry: Just about all of my limited...
