    Notice which car he ISN'T trading...

    Hahaha that's awesome. Notice it's an NA car as well, not even turbo. God he must hate that Ferrari.

    New to SM, need advice!

    Definitely check the spare tire compartment for rust. Leaky rear-hatch seals will cause rust to build up in there. I think for what you're getting, go for it. Like te72 said though, make sure you have a separate daily driver to depend on.

    36 up front (225/50/16) and 32 in the rear (245/50/16) on stock sawblades with Toyo Proxes 4 rubber.

    What does it take to go E85? Advantages/Disadvantages?

    At least you guys GET E85. Up here in Canada, we can only dream of having such a fuel. *sigh* I GUESS I can stick with 94 octane for now.

    New to SM, need advice!

    If you want a reliable Sunday cruiser, just rebuild the 7M with new rods and pistons and it'll treat you well. As long as you check the fluids often. Low oil on the 7M is what causes them to blow up. This way, when you rebuild the motor you can be satisfied that the work done to the car is how...

    Ohhh okay. As long as it's better than the stock one than I'm gonna get it.

    Supra Won't Hold Traction Now!

    I never knew Energy Suspension made a transmission mount for our cars. That's good to know cause one of my transmission mount nuts is stripped.

    7MGTE Gasket question and 1990 MK3 Auto Questions

    For the AT flush it would be a good idea to do it if you don't know when it was flushed last. Make sure you use Toyota ATF, the tranny tends to not really like any other fluids that I know of (correct me if I'm wrong? especially if anybody used a fluid that the tranny liked beside Toyota ATF)...

    Yeah I went for a cruise with Duane last weekend after a local Show n Shine here in Richmond. He is busy with his bike that he got an exhaust for.

    Is an Mkiii the right car for me?

    I bought my 89 last year to be my daily. Back in April I spend $6.5K to swap in a 1JZ and have never regretted it one bit. The 7M for my wasn't as reliable and so I took it out. Ever since April I have spent a total of $3 to keep my 1JZ running (aside from the usual oil change, etc.) and that...

    Used mk3 with 1jz vs. used with 7m

    It cost me 6.5K to get my 1JZ swapped into my MK3. I went with a standalone though hence why it cost me a bit more. Definitely go with the JZ car, I've spent a total of $3 to keep my 1J on the road and that was to replace a worn out heater control valve with a brass coupling. I'm super happy I...

    Driveshaft Decision. I'm torn. Advice from experienced?

    I can't comment no the noise either because of my exhaust, but there is no vibration on my DSS AL 3.5" driveshaft. And I've taken mine upto 120mph.

    BHG #4 I think so ! And the new plan lay out :)

    You're gonna love the 1J. It's a completely different engine compared to the 7M, and boy is it ever addictive. I instantly fell in love with my 1J when I got my swap done and got my car back (and until then I hadn't ever driven or gotten a ride in a 1J car). Make sure you spend the money and...

    Pretty damn happy today, I just took 2nd place in a car show :-)

    Nice and clean! Love those wheels what are they?

    Driveshaft Decision. I'm torn. Advice from experienced?

    I have the DSS 1-Piece 3.5" in my car. My end goals with my 1JZ swap are ~750HP and it should be able to handle that easily.

    What clutches for the W58 don't squeal?

    My centerforce dual friction didn't squeal at all when I had my W58.

    Adjusting boost?

    I don't change it much. My standalone was tuned @ 14PSI and that's what I run the majority of the time. Yeah every now and then I'll crank the boost up a couple pounds but I tend not to as my stock twins are on their way out. But once I go single I'm just gonna set and forget it and just take it...

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    ^^ I'm actually thinking of getting my sawblades stripped for next year. My powder coat is starting to come off and it doesn't look that great. Plus I love the look of stripped sawblades.
