    Casey's Ricer RHD Build

    God dammit. So I brought the car to the shop on the 5th of this month. It is now the 24th. It's been 19 days. Guess what they have done so far... All they did was take the dashboard out of the clip and the gauge cluster and armrest out of my car. :3d_frown: WTF! Nobody in the shop saw me today...

    Targa Headroom?

    I'm 6'3" and I fit fine. Although the back seat behind me isn't at all usable.

    Casey's Ricer RHD Build

    Well, the 23rd came around and no car yet. I am going to check on its progress tomorrow. I'll take a few pictures of what they've accomplished, if anything. The shop is dicking me around with dates. I call every 2 days asking if they need anything and how much longer they think it will be and...

    Gauge Cluster Needles: Paint Question

    The cluster is completely stock. But there is a huge difference to me at least. I messed around at work a little bit on it and it turned out great. After I scraped all the orange paint off with a razor blade I put this stuff on with a microfiber cloth. It worked awesome to get it to a clear...

    Gauge Cluster Needles: Paint Question

    Can I get a picture of those at night time? I'm only really looking at the speedo, tach, and fuel in this case as the other gauges came with the red, lol. It's a valid point. All of my needles are off right now. And I scraped the paint from the bottom why would I not paint the bottom of...

    Gauge Cluster Needles: Paint Question

    So I pulled off my gauge cluster needles and scraped off the ugly faded orange paint. What would be the best kind of paint to use for this application. I'm looking to paint them red. I was also thinking that I don't have to use any kind of transparent paint because it will reflect throughout the...

    How long will the power steering last without fluid?

    Lol, I never noticed I was in the 1JZ section. I just went into new posts to see what was up. Oh well, my bad. Just another reason the 7M is better than the 1J. :sarcasm::runaway:

    How long will the power steering last without fluid?

    Take the power steering belt off, fill the rack with fluid and cap it off. Drive as long as you like.

    Casey's Ricer RHD Build

    Shit, its been a while. I FINALLY sent the car into the shop for the RHD swap. I got it there on Thursday and he said he'd start it this Monday and have it done in 2 weeks so that puts it around the 23rd of this month. Hopefully that will stand true. This is when we were loading the Supra on to...

    Is German Castrol really going the way of the dinosaur?

    Every month is a new oil deal. It usually alternates from Pennzoil to Castrol but for some reason, last month was Valvoline and Mobil with Purolator filters. Next month it'll be safe to assume that we'll have the Pennzoil/Fram on that deal. But who knows, Pep Boys has changed immensely in the...

    What would you do if gas hits 7 bucks a gallon?

    When gas hit $3.75 a gallon 2 months ago, I bought one of these. Fun little toy... I just hit 700 miles.

    New To The Sene

    So, I'm sure at least a couple of us want to know and they know where I'm going with this... Were you going to put an alternator on that motor or just kill batteries left and right? It's missing a water pump as well. And was his car originally turbo and he went supercharger or did it start N/A?

    Is German Castrol really going the way of the dinosaur?

    So I was going thru the oil we got in the delivery at Pep Boys earlier tonight and I see a few cases of Castrol Syntec 0w30. It turns out we are starting to carry the 0w30 Castrol oil now. At least in the Southern part of Florida. Our Atlanta distribution center has 2000 quarts and the Indiana...
