I've never had a car with one on it, so I wouldn't know. I would like to have one with some ducting in it to bring air around the engine to exit around the cowl.

there are rebuild kits floating around ebay for like 400 bucks, iirc. ...I'm not sure on the quality, but we've used one in an eclipse (albeit a stock one) with good results. If you're on a budget, you may want to go that route.

my immediate reaction would be: remove it. ...but hey, that's me.

alright, so I didn't see a definitive answer on this: Is this a COMPLETE set? I noticed the prices on grimsta's vendor thread, which are 2x.xx and 3x.xx I'm guessing that the 100 dollars you're talking about would be for the whole set, correct? ...just making sure.

Good to see someone local-ish on here (knoxville). How far are you away from, say, UT? I have a couple of supra buddies in the sevierville/jefferson city area, if you need help/wanna talk cars/whatever. Shoot me a PM if you want. -Devon Goodspeed Ninja Edit: I agree on the wheels, but other...

Welcome to the boards. I, too, have had a white and black supra... ...of course, now I have a grey one, so I guess I met somewhere in the middle. lol.

I'd be down for a cookout somewhere. I live in knox, though, so I wouldn't have a clue where to go in nashville.

...just finished up my 4" yesterday. Estimated I think I have 3.5 or so inches of ground clearance under it (I can fit all five fingers on my hand under it...or a size eleven shoe turned sideways). All in all I used about 9ft. of exhaust, but I already made a DP, so that isn't included in that...

TN update: I just got my car running and boosting again! The boost still comes on slowly, and I'm not sure if that's because of the larger turbo (gto4088) and I've been driving it on a ct for a while, or if there's a boost leak somewhere. ...But yeah, as mentioned before, I'm still down for a...

I love this thread. I love the sarcastic comments! A good read.

I want to be able to actually DRIVE mine, instead of working on it all the effing time.

well, the amusing part is that I'm a graphic designer/photographer for the school newspaper, so you'd think that I'd have my camera everywhere with me, but NOOOOO, whenever my car is involved, it magically disappears. lol

well, I mocked everything up, but the car has some slow spooling issues (my guess is due to an exhaust leak before the turbo), so I'm in the process of helicoiling the head and replacing every gasket before the downpipe... ...and considering that I'm a college kid with two jobs and live about...

does it raise it on one side, or both?

P.S. How much piping did you use, total? I need to order mine, as nobody carries it around here and need to know how much.

oh wow, I wasn't expecting to have that kind of room. Awesome!

how much room do you have between it and the ground? My DP is finished and my muffler's on the way for my 4" system.

well, the local toyota dealer (and pretty much everybody in the parts department) acts like I'm wasting their time by trying to purchase genuine stuff. ...So I pretty much refuse to go there anymore.

so I searched for a while, gave up, and here I am. I'm helicoiling my head in the next few days and I need a measurement on how long the stock studs are, and how long the threads are on both ends. Anybody have an extra stud laying around that can give me the measurements? I know the thread...

I agree with the above posts. Frame straightening requires a special jig, and we all know that special tools = expensive. I have a 1966 avanti that we had to get the fame straightened/sectioned, and it was an expensive proposition. After the initial quote, and the fact that everything (and I do...
