    the 'what is this?" game

    nah it's definitely mig'd cause there's two big beads of weld and some wire hanging off it, it's not a good job at all, and i think when i thought i blew the headgasket/coolant line, in actuality it was coming out of this hillbilly contraption

    the 'what is this?" game

    yeah i read through that oil filter thread, it was pretty informative. i've had the car less than a month and only put about 50 miles on it before i pulled the motor, well 49.75 miles and about a 1/4 mile burnout just acting stupid. it probably has more carbon buildup in the intake manifold...

    the 'what is this?" game

    near the back of the motor you will see a hose sticking out towards the left. it looks like someone cut it off from something, then used a mig to try and weld it up. it has to do with the cooling system coming off the block, but what does it hook up to on the car? it was like this when we...

    HID Bi-Xenon, 5000k vs Hella Halogen, Pics!

    thanks, i was just curious on it, cause the other pics i've seen have wash on them. i love the hid's, but without a good cutoff, even a small bit of wash is not cool (thinking of me being on the other side of the lights)

    Did i find a very rare supra?

    you don't understand, it is worth every penny of $74k. see the car was made in 87, it has parts on it from 89+ that were installed from the factory (according to the owner). that means, that someone specifically used their time travelling watch from the factory to go forward to 1989, get the...
