    Best oil for the 7mgte

    Hmm, thats very interesting, never knew that. I actually just bought some redline for the supra a week ago at the summit racing store near me, it was about 9.95 a quart but I've heard only great things so I figured it was worth it. Anyway, thanks for enlightening me once again. (All this oil...

    personalised plates ideas/suggestions

    One time I was driving on an expressway around here an an Audi RS6 Avant flew by me at what must have been like 140 and his plate said "MCBOOST". I thought that was a pretty cool one.

    Best oil for the 7mgte

    Sorry to get back semi-off topic, but 10000 miles? Is that ok to do if you have a good filtration system? If so I was never aware of this, in fact I have people telling me I should change my oil every 1000 miles because my car is so old (not my Supra, but my Lexus mind you, using GC and a napa...

    Best oil for the 7mgte

    Like the Lexus AFM (not sure what else you could be talking about)? Shouldn't be any difference in oil or oil filter, and if you are asking about air filter, I believe no difference there either (as far as brands).

    Its Great Waking Up To This.

    I would say get her to replace everything absolutely, especially since thats a turbo A isn't it? Or am I just being thrown off by the black sawblades and duct?

    Do you believe the Supra (MK3) will become a collectors car over time?

    As for it being a collector's car in the future, I say maybe. But to me, I always seem to have people like my car when I show it to them, not that I even go out of my way to show them what it is or what it does. Of course I suppose the people I hang out with somewhat effects that doesn't it...

    Wyotech or UTI? Opinions on em?

    I'm currently enrolled at the program at Ohio Technical College. I love it so far, as for the shop/class time split, it depends on what class you are in. The engine repair class was mostly shop time, but my electrical class was a lot of class work (wiring diagrams and the sort, its my first of...

    Tie vs. VW GTI Turbo

    From what I understand, the way VW does it with turbo engines is from the factory they have the whole engine pretty much set up for low end and not peak power. My buddy owned an old Jetta 1.8 turbo that he dynoed with like 150 hp with an exhaust iirc. It had good pickup I suppose but the...

    Does anybody slide their mkIII?

    Funny, I did this awhile back on Forza 2. And PS I drift my mk3! In the video games...

    Does anybody slide their mkIII?

    Yeah some times at the start of the winter I'll like to kick it out a few times, but I get bored of that fairly quickly and that's pretty much the extent of my drifting. (By the way, how much light are you putting in front of you with your headlights like that, or do they go up more? Never...

    How are KYB GR2 Shocks?

    I think they are ok, but my opinion isn't really informed. I have them on my car, but the problem is, they came with them so I have no idea how a supra handles with anything else. But the car feels pretty good compared to other cars I've driven, if that helps?

    My 1986.5 Supra build up thread

    Well...good news abounds. I got my Lexus fixed, cheaper than I thought it was going to be too. So I'm driving that again. Plus I actually took some time and worked on the Supra a bit. EDIT: I guess I already told you guys that...heh stupid me...well more of the story is in the next paragraph...

    Tourenn Eurolight thingy

    Yeah, I'm not really a fan of the tC myself, but it did look pretty cool. And even if I was going to use it I wouldn't put it on my Supra. I don't see much point in tinting the headlights of a car that has them flipped down half the time anyway. I don't normally see the kind of car its on...

    Tourenn Eurolight thingy

    Damn, I should just learn to keep my mouth shut. I make a post about something I thought was interesting and I get called gay, awesome. I'm sorry about the lack of details, but if you go to the manufacturer website they only say as much as I did. They also have no link as to more information...

    Tourenn Eurolight thingy

    I saw this thing in a magazine my friend had the other day, I can't remember what the magazine was but they had a Scion tC and put this stuff on it, they said it was like $45 or something like that. Anyway, this stuff was like some kind of colored tint that you applied with a cotton swab...

    My 1986.5 Supra build up thread

    Well all the coolant leaked out and it overheated severely which caused the BHG .

    My 1986.5 Supra build up thread

    Well my Lexus BHGed today, which is pretty much a kick in the teeth considering that I figured out of the 2 vehicles I own that would be the last one to BHG... Basically what happened is I had a car alarm installed on my car because I moved to a urban area that bordered an "unsafe" area, and...

    My 1986.5 Supra build up thread

    Hey, I hate to ask a question like this because it makes me feel like I'm not putting enough effort forth but I still feel like I need to ask it. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone could provide me with some more in depth help when I get to building my engine. I think I could do a lot myself...

    My 1986.5 Supra build up thread

    Heh, sorry about the saw blades, but I never put them on. And also the rims are still on the Lexus, but guess my luck? I ran over a nail with those ones too...

    My 1986.5 Supra build up thread

    Well I got my brakes on my Supra last weekend, they look great, but no chance to test them yet. Since I'm getting the MHG done soon, I'm starting to look at a new piggyback (or maybe keep my SAFC 2?). But the main problem is that I have very little knowlage on piggybacks, and even when I...
