LoL thanks guys :D I'm taking a break from the hellish Texas afternoon heat... got so much to do!!!! damn this heat...

Thanks guys!! more pics :D got her back today... time to get to work I need to figure out a way to adjust the placement of the side pieces to the spoiler... that gap is just way too big... the inside surface should be flush with the body... also going to order full set of...

Yeah he kept saying he was trying to line up the antenna hole... I told them repeatedly that the antenna hole doesn't need to line up because the only solid point of contact is with the main body... the little rubber seal on the spoiler is flexible... you think i can adjust it myself? Also what...

LoL yeah... once I get all the parts put back together over the weekend I will post finished pics :D.

OK I get the Supra back tomorrow... went to the shop today to replace the fuel pump with a temporary one from my buddies car. I will install the walbro once I figure out the wiring and details on the install. The paint job looks exceedingly good, apparently the paint code by itself was more...

ahhh ic ic... I hear sethrons work is just as good as ron r... can't wait for the day when I can do a full engine rebuild as well :D gonna get me a ffim too woot!!

I think it's something else... the car scene in Austin is very very lowkey... I'm actually hoping to organize a REAL cars n coffee next year as well as a bigger meet to coincide with the F1 races... I haven't worked out any details yet since the June 17 date for the race is still not set in...

Whoohooo update!!! what ffim is that??

Ok I'm at the shop right now... my tach moves during cranking so cps is getting signal right??... I pulled the first spark plug and its super dirty, but it fires... not a blue arc but an orange one. I tried spraying carb cleaner into the brake booster port... but I can't get much in there most...

same... tomorrow is the day... I will have to bring my tools to the body shop... so I'm going to check for spark, ground conditions, clean out the connectors, check for tach movement... and... how do you check for fuel and/or air??

oh... =O well then... I shall see tomorrow... but I really don't see how I can just up and lose spark alluva sudden out of the blue for no apparent reason....

hmmm I don't mean to hijack the Op's thread, but mine doesn't die... just cranks. I will check tomorrow if the tach moves. Also (prepare for super noob question) how do you test for spark?? (sorry OP, hopefully our issues are the same and we can get it fixed soon)

I am having the same issue... one question though when you say "wiggle" what part of the CPS wiring are you referring to exactly? where the wires go into the CPS body or the connectors?? I wiggled the shit out of my CPS wiring while a buddy cranked the engine and had no success....

yeh... idk man if i can't get it started at the shop... well let's just hope that doesn't happen... stupid stupid cps wiring... fml

Ok stopped by the shop today good work going on... gonna post pics later... but the car won't start. They had to push it around today... so I had one guy cranking whiile I wiggled the shit out of my cps wiring... nothing. I'm going to try manual cranking tomorrow.... but idk.... wut part of the...

anyone ever rebuild an auto transmission themselves??.... boostlogic wants 3k for a rebuild and IPT's rebuild is better but costs almost 3700 fml

Auston LoL.... No just the foam inside the cover was shattered... So the shop wants everything so they can install it after fixing to make sure all the parts fit correctly =O I guess that's ok... and now I'm driving around a big ass Charger cuz that's all enterprise had :(.... thing has...

LoL yeah... we shall see... we shall see :D I have done my part and prepped it as best I can... I don't even want them to install anything... just to fix the damage, paint and make sure everything fits straight...

Qualitek :D heard of them?? they have the best rating in Auston on citysearch and yelp... hopefully they live up to it thanks guys btw :D can't wait for the semi-finished product

LoL I got rear-ended... and it's cheaper for me to provide a newer bumper in good condition than for the shop to try and repair my smashed up one with rat nibbles all over it =P
