Well these are the old-school domestic "mag" lug nuts: Here is a Nissan/Toyota OEM "mag" lug nut: These are "acorn" lug nuts: "cone" lug nuts (common on steel wheels and many OEM Domestics): These are "tuner" (specifically spline-type) lug nuts: From what I was told when I...

They should use "mag style" lugnuts just like the mk3. The ones that absolutely won't work are the "cone" style used on many steel wheels...

In norcal, with a supra as you described, you'll probably get the most money for your time by doing that 1-time smog deal... You would be hard-pressed to make $1000 profit by parting a NA supra out -- and that is before you consider how much your time is worth to you. And ones in your...

I ran MKIV wheels with MK3 lugnuts for a long time, with frequent unmounting/mounting of the wheels. Broken studs that far in are usually caused by overtorquing -- are you sure your shop isn't using an air gun to put the lug nuts on?

No, it still happens. It even happens to the Cressidas (which generally weren't abused as often as the Supras)

This thread has been heavily edited by me (and reign). I'm sure I've made some people upset by deleting posts, so feel free to send me a PM to get my explanation. In the future: Please keep it civil, and please keep it on topic. If you want to make a post that doesn't met those two...

I'm almost inclined to sticky it. I think the original poster brought up some issues many people feel from time to time, but most of the people who have replied have posted constructive criticism. The search is a powerful tool, but like all tools it does have limitations. I don't think...

I ran champions once -- for about 3000 miles before I developed a miss and pulled them. Two of the plugs had cracked insulators -- something I've never, ever had with NGK over 100s of thousands of miles and much more abuse. It could just be a defect in the cast for that particular part...

HI OFCR

*thread cleaned* Play nice, stay on topic Thanks, Jeff

You might try PMing IJ since he was the original tester...

You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink... Thread closed

I love buying $250-$500 cars then boonie bouncing them until they die...

In British English it means vulva; in US English it mean buttocks. (two things you probably don't want to confuse...)

Corbeau Seat bases come with an extender so you can use the stock seatbelts...

If you plan on doing any rock crawling with the true-track, just remember to apply a little bit of brake when you lift a rear wheel (with a true trac, if the wheel is in the air with no torque against it, it'll just spin).

LOL

Locker front, true-trac rear is a good setup (you don't get chirping when you go around corners normally because the front hubs are unlocked). As for mudding, its a lot of fun but will get very expensive once you start breaking stuff. Good times though!

Ah, I miss portland this time of year... Sure was a lot of fun sliding all over the place in front of police and them not caring...
