    Valve cover screw problem

    Hello, I tried searching a little bit for this but just found things about oil leaks. Anyway, my problem is that every time I try to remove one of these, it strips real quick. I was just wondering what the proper method for removing these is. I'm just using a phillips head screwdriver, normal...

    Tragedy has struck

    Is it just me or did everyone just go check their braided lines to their FPR?

    My 1986.5 Supra build up thread

    Yeah, I'm definitely getting some new rims asap. Funny thing is, when I washed my car I tried my hardest to clean up those sawblades, but some black buildup has started growing on them that wont come off no matter what I try, short of sanding it... Anyway, I'm going to keep the car blue when I...

    My 1986.5 Supra build up thread

    Photoshopped MkIII fronts

    I've thought of doing this from time to time, mostly just small stuff because im not to good at photoshop. Never actually done anything with my car except make my little sig picture with photoshop.

    Wierd electrical problem

    Well the car starts fine now, the only problem remaining is that the battery is being drained slowly.

    Wierd electrical problem

    Well the thing is though that its drawing exactly what its rated to draw normally on the cd player box, and narrowed it down by removing the fuse labeled "Radio", it removed a significant part of the draw so I figured that was it.

    Wierd electrical problem

    Well I guess I found the problem, its my cd player. I'm surprised though, its the only thing other than the car's normal draws thats drawing any current, but its not drawing more than its supposed to judging by how much the difference was when we unplugged it and plugged it back in and what it...

    Wierd electrical problem

    Well I know that at this point the battery will fail any test I give it, but erlier today when it got off the charger I doubt that would have been the case. Not tested the alternator but even if that wasnt working I should still be able to start it right? Also, no jumpstarting wont work...

    Wierd electrical problem

    regular or Synthetic oil?

    Indeed, that is the problem. I take an Automotive Technician class and they say pretty much the same stuff thats been repeated over and over again. Thats pretty much why I don't listen to them when it comes to oil or a few other things, like how I need a smaller exhaust from my turbo back to...

    carbon hood ?

    Yeah I'm running the stock turbo, and now that I look closer my hood seems to have some sort of underliner to it. On a side note though the underliner looks as though its got some very mild discooration in the area of the turbo.

    Exhaust size?

    Yeah that seems to be the general agreement I suppose. To tell you the truth these exhaust things are one of the things I don't know very much about yet... Normally I don't use the chinese made things that are around, well except on occasion, like I just bought a keychain made in china...
