    Engine Shops in Alabama

    I'm in the Huntsville area as well. I don't know of any shops personally, but Suprahero might. He's in the Birmingham area and knows a few shops down there I believe.

    Swapping oem radio for another oem...what are the possibilities?

    You might be able to pull out just the knob or whatever it is exactly that you need from a radio at a junkyard this way you don't have to buy a whole radio again. The radios on the 3rd gen 4Runners look almost identical, they just have a different plug on the back because they are externally...

    87 Supra Preservation/Modernization Build (Lots of pics!!!)

    I think some GM wheels are the same bolt pattern, but they're kinda ugly most of them. I think you named everything that will fit on that truck. If you live near a fairly large city you should be able to find something decent on craigslist. I'm fortunate to have Nashville, Birmingham, Atlanta...

    Project: Git'R driving...a VERY short build

    That's weird. I don't think I've ever seen a build here called "done"... I also need to get my bumpers painted, but can't seem to find a shop I trust enough to work on my Supra.

    Project: Git'R driving...a VERY short build

    You sound like me. People kept asking what year my car is so my plate now reads "SUPRA87", but it doesn't stop them from asking... Even when they are standing behind the car.

    87 Supra Preservation/Modernization Build (Lots of pics!!!)

    I assume he has the Tundra Brake upgrade? If so that's what I've got on mine too and they clear with no issues. Thanks for the compliments. That's pretty much the same reaction I get from anyone who is into cars/trucks when they see the wheels. I think I did good haha I agree. I had a pretty...

    87 Supra Preservation/Modernization Build (Lots of pics!!!)

    Yeah I know what you mean. I don't want it to come out looking cheesy or ricey. I've seen a few Tacoma guys do it and it can look pretty slick if it's done right. Here it is on a black Tacoma. I think his came out very well.

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    It's not that bad to replace. I did a write up on replacing it a while back when I did mine. It's even easier to replace if you go with the braided line from driftmotion I believe.

    87 Supra Preservation/Modernization Build (Lots of pics!!!)

    Yeah I kinda amazed myself looking at the differences in the two pictures haha. I had forgotten what all I had done to it. I didn't realize how dated looking those wheels are until you said it, they do look very early 2000's. I love these new wheels, they're the wheels off the new Trail Edition...

    87 Supra Preservation/Modernization Build (Lots of pics!!!)

    Thanks man, I'm super happy with the way they both came out. I think it really sets mine apart. This is the earliest picture I could find of the 4Runner. She's come a long way since then.

    Hard line? Like the metal part that the rubber hose slips over and a clamp holds together? Or are you talking about the high pressure line?

    87 Supra Preservation/Modernization Build (Lots of pics!!!)

    Yeah they are! You beat me by about a week to getting your's put on. I was waiting on the guy I was buying them from to get back into town. It was a long wait, especially after I had my new tires sitting in the garage waiting to be mounted haha. Definitely worth it for the price I paid though...

    87 Supra Preservation/Modernization Build (Lots of pics!!!)

    Not too much going on with the Supra. I had another bad set of Ballasts so I just replaced them and the lights are working alright for right now. A few days ago I placed an order for a set of ST sway bars. I only paid $242 shipped for the front and rear brand new! The 4Runner got some new...

    Tnice17's 1987 MK3 Street Build - Weekend Warrior Project

    Looks like a really clean start. I'll be looking to see where you take this. That body is immaculate for being from up north!

    Good to see someone coming from a MK4 to a MK3. Most people go the other way...

    Bring back the Kaminari 3 piece spoiler???

    That's an interesting thought, I'm sure someone out there with bodywork skills could do something. But at that point it may be worth it just to have a completely custom spoiler made instead.

    Kaminari 3 piece wing-let's bring it back!!!

    Yup, that's the issue. Everyone that has one payed to play so they don't want to have a whole bunch of replicas out there running around when they payed $1k+ for theirs. It's a good thought, and if they reproduced them I might buy one just to have in-case I would ever put a wing on mine because...

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    I would recommend buying the samples from RedLine and matching them to your interior. That's what I did, and it turns out the "Saddle" is a great match tot the burgundy in my 87. You get the money back from the samples when you order the actual covers too.

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    For the knocks over bumps that may be your subframes. Retorque them and it may go away, mine did. There's torque specs in the TSRM, it's a maintenance item that is commonly neglected. The full lock turn knocks are probably the little caps that go over the steering stops, they break off because...

    James' 94 Supra Turbo

    Awesome! Once you get her painted and the MK3 all put together you need to get a shot of all your awesome Toyotas lined up. Sounds about right with the LEDs... My power antenna on the Supra wasn't going all the way up so I bought a new cord and drum, it's been working fine now and the new...
