Me too. After taking the wood deck and the side panels off (a few times) to get to the springs and shocks, I came up with the same idea...surprised Toyota didn't.

There ya go...

Amen! I have had more debates on this forum over this exact subject and my arguement is always the same: The average guy does not have the resources or the knowledge needed in order to get coilovers adjusted properly. As a result they (coilovers) end up being a down-grade. And that's...

I apologize if this is a stupid question, but why not use the original fuel system ecu?

How bout a video or some detailed pic's of the car so far? C'mon, 17 pgs of build...we deserve a pic or 2.

Not likely you've taken enough off that head to increase compression to the point that it would overheat. Also, higher compression alone is not going to raise your water temps significantly. However, detonation will, but I don't see the compression getting high enough to cause detonation from...

4 doesn't divide evenly into 6... A six cylinder with 4 exhaust tips? I dunno. You may want to give that some more thought.

Here's what I can tell you for sure: 1. To get a true match from panel to panel, you have to paint it all at once. 2. I can definitely see what you are saying as far as the color difference. 3. I also see a difference in the metallic properties. It looks like the painter didn't...

Modern polyester urethane 2 stage color/clear paints require 90 days or more to cure (some painters will tell you 120 days), so that sounds right. What color did you paint? Something sounds wrong, it shouldn't vary at all. Did he paint the car in pieces or all at once?

To be honest, I have yet to see a really great headlight conversion. Even the HID's i've seen didn't seem to justify the expense. I dunno, maybe I'm expecting too much.

+1, although the stant heavy duty one is ok.

That's exactly what I was thinking. You'd just have to figure out exctly where to put 'em. If you do decide to do this, post some pics of where you're thinking of locating them.

Dude you are in waaaaay over your head. Stop before this gets more embarrasing for you. :3d_frown:

I can't see the whole head from the pic's, but given what I can see, I'd stand by my earlier post. I doubt very much that it's anything other than a stock casting with CNC'd combustion chambers and fitted with aftermarket valves. I like the shape of the chambers over stock. It would be...

Looks like they took a stock casting and CNC'd the combustion chambers, and probably did whatever else (like the water passages) by hand with a grinding tool. Just a guess.

Actually, I've found that the wife gave up bitching about the car after a few years and settled into a kind of quiet resignation (ocasionally muttering under her breath). Works for me.:icon_razz

hardwood Adidas or Nike's?

+1 except for the last line. I'm not being a hater, but as I've stated in the past...I just don't get the "stretched tire look". It looks kinda like how the lowrider 64 Chevy guys mount their tires...not feelin' it.

Quit guessing and get a block kit from napa. But yeah, it's obviously a head gasket or/and cracked head.

The L shaped one looks like an adapter for the fuel rail, and I would imagine the other two are generic adapters to mate the fitting with the fuel rail. I'm assuming this is a universal FPR and not a specific to Supra unit, which would explain all the adapters.
