    Where do you buy steering rack boots?!?

    Does anyone make and sell Polyurethane Boots for Supras? Or has any found a set of Poly's that fit another car but will also fit Supras? When I do replace mine I would prefer Poly since its lasts like forever even when exposed to tranny fluid.

    Rust/crap on cam lobe. Not sure if starting is a good idea. *Pics*

    This isn’t a fix for the cause but, if you can get to the lobes that are shown in the pics. Get yourself some Acetone (Highly Flammable) and some Wood bleach (local Hardware store). Clean the lobes off where the rust is using acetone and white paper towels, keep using a new one until when you...

    MSD ignition question

    The coolest thing about an MSD ignition, the ones the little rev limiter plug ins is when you take your car to get it worked on you can throw in one for 4k rpm max and the mechanics can't burn your car up.

    Just thought i would get some Input for someone

    Here in CA I looked at traderpubs.com which is worldwide and saw very few MkIII's for sale in all of CA. The ones that were for sale were from 4k and up to 10k, so it seems the market on our old rides might be starting to take off finally. So remember those N/A's might be worth 50k someday when...

    chrome sawblades?????

    When I stripped mine I found that when Toyota masked the wheel face for sand blasting of the slots they did a crappy job so I had these random sand blasted areas on the wheel face. When they come from the factory you don't see that due to the wheel face be painted. Maybe those areas that look...
