    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    I had that problem at Clint's wedding that one time. You know what fixed it? I pushed the brake pedal harder and sooner. ;) Nice sounding though man... Digging the panda look. :) Me? I most recently scraped 4" of snow off the top of it. On the plus side, all the snow seems to have washed off...

    Good clutch setup for durability?

    Friend of mine up here likes to abuse the shit out of his FC, gets practice driving it sideways as often as possible (actually a useful skill up here when it snows, so I don't give him too much shit over it), and my point is, he goes through a clutch every year at least. Usually by then he's due...

    Tylers Conlins's Drag Supra

    No worries man. Eastern and Northern Utah is beautiful. However, Phoenix roads, while they may not be "interesting" (take the back roads, b-highways, and you'll see what I mean, the east valley is full of great roads) as you put it, are MUCH better maintained. Plus, you don't have to deal with...

    Finally my 7M on the dyno.

    What is up with the camera distorting when you let off? Is that 7m trying to suck it in too? :p

    New Initial D: Stage 5

    ...and this is why I refuse to watch it for now. Been watching Naruto for 8 years now, the whole waiting game is not much fun. On a more related note, has anyone else here watched Wangan Midnight? I rather enjoyed it, but have been kinda disappointed that it never had an official English subbed...

    What you didnt expect to find in your Supra

    Dude, it's a sports car on the high end of the low (pun intended), from the 80's. Tell me you're not surprised. Now if you were finding coke residue, I'd say you were dealing with a financially responsible junkie of a previous owner. :p

    Picture of the Day!

    You're right Figit... we need someone who drove their Supra into a lake or something to keep up the trend. :p

    1946 Chevy Fleetmaster 2-door, meet "Betty"...

    Got a bit more done last night in another hour or so. Probably going to try getting it done by the end of the weekend, time allowing and weather permitting. By the grace of God (hopefully), we'll be working on making the thing move under its own power for the first time since........? Shooting...

    2jz upgrades?

    Interesting, seems that they increased the stroke even further from the 3.4L stroker that we all know and love. Those pistons are gonna be SWINGING with a stroke that long, and they still say it's good for 9k maximum with proper cams and valvetrain? That's VERY impressive for such a long stroked...

    Chambers Build Thread - "The RAV"

    In comes Jeff just STOMPING any misunderstandings before they become misinformation haha... Anyway, I could see one of these making a pretty potent trail vehicle to be honest. Aside from that, I share your hatred of tree cum as well. Shit used to get all over my car when I lived with my parents...

    Throttle Body TPS

    Top of my head, I don't know the part number. Check with Andy's "JZ swaps for dummies" thread, if you don't find info in there, you might PM him. If nothing else, I'd be 99% willing to believe the 2jz part would work.

    My mistress getting fixed again.

    Can't complain about that man. I paid my buddy $800 for porting my head if I remember correctly. I think it was a little more extensive than just gasket matching, but still. All of what you posted for $1000? Money well spent IMO.

    Any suggestions on a good place to get a 7MGTE shortblock?

    Grant, one of the best pieces of advice that IJ ever posted on here was this sage piece of advice on the subject of reliability:

    shine auto project contact

    Rodel is your best point of contact sir. I never had much luck calling, however Ken had emailed me a couple times when I was dealing with the fender group buy. Still, they're quite busy I imagine...

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    There was a thread in Other Cars a while back (sometime last year?) that had a pretty good batch of suggestions from the wise ones on how to store an engine. ;)

    92 MKIII Power Steering

    Can't have that running around here now... I did that on my 88 and ended up preferring it like that. Made driving in the snow a bit easier to be honest.

    Tylers Conlins's Drag Supra

    Frankly, I'm with Steven on this one guys, having been to both places. Why? Roads: Phoenix Weather: Phoenix Food: Phoenix Women: Phoenix Car scene: Phoenix Scenery in the area: Hmm... actually I'd call this one a tie. Utah is beautiful. However, I say we all go down to Phoenix sometime. Or...

    Furious But Lazy 7M owner who gave Up.

    Jordan, I don't frequent this section of the forum, but I decided to stop by and suggest that you stop chasing the dragon man... Just buy a Miata at some point. At least then you'll have a running car that is a lot of fun. :) EDIT: Before all the other AZ guys jump in, I mean fun in the...

    Help me pick a website URL for my business! (with pics I'm a photographer, come see)

    Reminds me of Call of Duty for PC. Click, HEADSHOT sucka! :p Genuine first thought there. On that note, bedtime for me.
