    New times at the track!

    PS: When are you gonna put those rims you showed on that car. I thought by now they would be on already.

    Posted this on SF: Found these pictures

    Done for looks--if you like that look, that is. It should stay on the Lamborghinis--let them keep that style. Functionality=0 if not a negative figure. One thing I think of in the first 2 seconds of seeing that is the car was not designed to do that. Doors are what?--75lbs? And the leverage...

    Ross Pistons

    Well, they are the second most popular used piston amongst the 7MPower members IIRC. Slow66 is even using them & has had a 10.55 run. If they are good enough for him, they are probably good enough for you too. EDIT: Click on this link & then click on the members' names & you will see...

    New toy in the house

    "Arrived today" ... from the USA? I see it has [American Cowboy] on it heheh That must have been (if you did get it shipped from the USA) quite expensive. Btw, thanks for your wite ups (Maintenance Schedule, Headbolt retorque, Engine Rebuild / Blown Headgasket, Rebuilding the head...

    what size cometic to get

    Empera has just gone through the shopping of HG's very recently & bet he did a good job shopping around & figuring out how available they are from different places. .018" is how you state it heheh I was wondering what in the world you were talking about. I just made the following post...

    Slashed Tyres

    But doesn't sugar disolve also? (at least that is how I imagined it) I know that in grain form in would be filtered though. I just always thoght it was the residue in accumulated form in the engine that would seize it up. As a mention, this is all out of speculations. I have no first hand...

    She runs!!! after...4-5months

    Glad to hear that empera! It is especially interesting to me because I followed your story thoughtout the assembly. How you were getting the turbo out, what gasket to get & what size gasket, telling ARP to give you the best lube available because you need it to be so slippery as you turned...

    Supra Recognition?

    LOL I hope you have a targa, that would make it funnier. Maybe to him & in his mind it is not a big deal. He may see it as wearing the same shoes (in his mind). Or he may not work on it himself & makes it less of a big deal to him...

    I missed it

    lol OK I'll see you in AIM in the chat room. All the dudes you mentioned are back here. There is only one guy that is missing & has not returned that I can think.

    Slashed Tyres

    The problem is that there are SO many hateful people in the world. All the Aussies I met were so cool but I guess even in Austrailia (seeing that your car is there) there are hateful people out there too. So many people hate seeing other do well. I finally went off in one post in another site...

    GT4 MKIII picture thread

    The first pic in my quote reminds me of the movie "Hannibal" (which is set in Florence, Italy) where Dr Lecter kills the pick pocket theif in out in public; it had a very similiar looking background/setting. That second pic in my quote made me think it would be exactly what a painting might...

    IMV Films - Vehicular Lunatics review

    No problem, I have done the same myself with the chat room thread ;) EDIT: Just seen both vids, looks like an interesting movie! I liked the jumping on cop cars part. I bet if the cops caught them, they would get worse beatings than Rodney King got.

    GT4 MKIII picture thread

    There is something about mountains that has always dazzled me & that is why I LOVE this pic. I love beaches & oceans also to a very high degree. Two of the pics in my sig are up in the moutains (one the highest in its state); one is across from the beach. SO LET'S SEE SOME MORE SCENIC PICS...

    I missed it

    Oper8or, where the hell have you been? I was wondering about that. I was talking to a member in AIM & said that some of the members seem to be new or gone, and that the members seem to be different than before the ... & he agreed. But now your back & it makes things more like before...

    Thoughts on removing AC system

    Well in the 5 years of having a running MKIII, I only used the AC ONCE. Some of that time I had it was in Florida also (been there twice with it) & Texas too. The car is usually in Upstate New York though (less than an hour from shaeff or turbotoy, MO87NA, or sammydafish for that matter). I...

    overheating but no signs of BHG

    Threads that may be of interest to you in the MK3 Supra Information/Reference section: http://supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1097 http://supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=590 You did not really give too much of a description on how it overheats. I would say you should try to...

    Thoughts on an aluminum block

    That is why I said “Well unless you had a sleeve in the cylinders” ;) Does Dart make a 7M block? IIRC Honda makes aluminum blocks, I think a machinist pointed one out to me once. So of course they get used somehow. I just never looked at one up close. I guess you would need the inserts as...

    DIY CT26 rebuild link?

    PRICES $193 CD that you mentioned .81 @ exchange rate $156.33 = USD ^ that seems kind of high. I know eBay use to sell them for less (like $100 USD) I just looked them up now & found a kit for $140 USD...with shipping it comes to $150 USD, so I guess that is about right. I cant find the...
