    City light wiring.

    Only thing those ebay lights are good for is retrofits, they're glare monsters.

    R154 With W58 Slave?

    Yeah, so they took the multiplate setup I'm betting. Gonna be hard to sell it without the push/pull converter :)

    Aftermarket camshafts

    Depends on other mods. I've seen several higher power cars make about 10% more power with cams, so dollar for dollar they're usually not a smart upgrade on a BPU car.

    what tire pressure on slicks ?

    I assume you mean for road course stuff, and like drag racing, it's a lot of trial and error. I've known racers to have different pressures for front and back all the time.

    R154 With W58 Slave?

    Definately looks like a push/pull conversion for a multiplate use. You said you got it from a 1J, where's the clutch?

    drifting on a fixed rim?

    Exact opposite. Repair is usually stronger if done correctly.

    Slipping Clutch Diagnosis (PICS)

    The backstep is important. As you don't machine those flywheels, it shouldn't be an issue.

    The Great Tool Debate

    Got a set of old professional craftsman screwdrivers. They don't even make em anymore or I'd buy another set :(

    need help deciding next step to my suspension upgrades

    I have the whiteline adjustables front and back. $80 for an alignment is very cheap, they may not know what they're doing (or have the rack that's accurate enough).

    Targa people, would you be interested in...

    Front strut towers are only taking verticle loads from the springs and dampeners, as the upper A-arm takes all other forces. McPherson strut car (like a MKII supra) all loads are handles by the upper strut tower. On the rear, you have the same arrangement, plus there is already a large brace...

    need help deciding next step to my suspension upgrades

    Rear swaybar made a lot of difference on my car, YMMV.

    drifting on a fixed rim?

    Wheels can be fixed, yes. Dunno how much I'd trust one that some says was fixed though. Powdercoating won't do anything to a wheel (if you track the car, the wheel is getting hotter than that from braking alone...)

    Shutting a bully down. Repost?

    Some shrink says the kid should have run away instead. Yeah, the fat kid is really going to outrun the skinny kid... Typical pacifist idiots don't understand that sometimes you need to defend yourself and beat some ass. I had issues like this in school too. I'm slow to anger, but when the...

    Depends where it's welded. Do you remember which bar he had? Most of the ones on the market these days have joints in them rendering them useless. Notice who you're calling a troll...

    Help me decide between these 6 Rims!

    Offsets all appear to be FWD stuff. Also, you have no idea how old the tires are on these wheels, if they're over 6 years old they're garbage. Don't look at them as getting wheels and tires, just look at them as wheels with junk tires.

    Rear one still does nothing. The X-brace that attaches to the strut towers and the rear shoulder belt spot are a maybe...

    Slipping Clutch Diagnosis (PICS)

    See what they say first. If they tell you to go pound sand, take the glaze off the disk and the surfaces, and run it until you can buy a new setup. Of course, don't buy from the same brand if they tell you to pound sand ;)

    The (old) Official Gun Thread.

    Cool revolvers, only one that's effective with a suppressor so far as I know.
