    Gilsdorf's Long Road to Automotive-Nirvana

    Installed the shineauto b-sides and abflug rears, finally got around to taking some pictures. The paint on the rear bumper is turning yellowish so there is some mismatch (I sprayed them in genuine Toyota 043 white and they are somewhat off all over), but the rear bumper is the worst. Plans...

    Blew off my Blow-off!!

    It's an aftermarket flange, so it may not be up to spec. Ordered a new c-clip, o-ring, and genuine HKS weld on flange--be here on Tuesday! Figured I'd give it a second chance with genuine parts, then if it gives me more grief a new Tial Q is in my future. The pipe it is currently on is a real...

    Blew off my Blow-off!!

    I was out doing some tuning this morning and had rolled on in first gear, boosted to ~22psi and when I shifted my HKS SSQV didn't sound like it normally does. No high pitch, just a big whooosh! . . . then no power, no boost! Figured I'd blown an IC connector, so I limped home --don't flame it...

    horsepower question..

    Off topic, I was on Kauai a couple of months back and saw a red MKiii parked behind the Flume/Zip-line tour place. Looked clean, in good shape and had 5 star mkiv wheels (couldn't tell if they were tt's) on it. Is this you? Meant to post up in sightings forum but never got around to it...

    Where are the Reno/Tahoe Supras?

    Looks like there's going to be a small get together in Reno if anyone is interested. Quoted from SF. Hope to see you there, Matt

    AEM EMS Training Class

    How about setting something up in conjunction with SILV'08 (perferably before the event)? I'd definately come down a few days earlier for it! And most of the attendants would be driving similar platforms.

    Where are the Reno/Tahoe Supras?

    Hey everyone, I moved to Minden/G-ville about a year ago and have seen less than a handfull of Supras (all years), and most were POS buckets. Where are the cool kids hanging out? I don't get up to Reno very often but would certainly make the trip if there was a meet or get together...

    Mooo haaa....

    We've got a 5-11 Slingshot in the prototype/testing stage right now, should be ready to roll in a few weeks (Tony Logoscz is doing the actual testing). Wake boards are further--out if at all (focusing on the kite industry for expansion right now). We have ~85 different shapes from 19 shapers...

    Mooo haaa....

    Very nice work Nick, did you consider tinting it grey to better match your paint? I'm in the CF industry and we do it all the time. Where we do it: www.avisosurf.com And for those of you who are interested . . . Yes I can get you a great price on a board.

    newb question

    When is it burning, acceleration, decel, start-up, all the time? These are clues as to where it could be going. Check your valve cover screws, they like to losen by themselves.

    newb question

    Have a compression test and a leak-down test done. They will help you diagnose where the burning oil is coming from.
