the remaining part sticking up after doing the soggy mod is too small in diameter to thread with the correct pitch of the stock knob. Have the existing threads welded on top.

which throttle body is that?

I'm gonna give fibrenew (www.fibrenew.com) a go with my steering wheel and see how that turns out.

nobody around here is rockin a 2jz manifold? mine will be in when the car is together...so no pictures!

wow. what new parts were needed for that fix? (aside from the rear bumper,etc) Did you go with new quarters or just use the damaged ones?

so what seems to be the problem then. I can guarantee you the ebay gasket and your everyday mhg is gonna be from the same factory. A manufacturer can not simply just throw a cheap metal gasket together like one could throw a cheap exhaust manifold together. A significant tooling investment is...

ah, you're from saskatoon, that explains the classy thong on the rearview mirror.

by the way, there wasn't that large of a hole in the floor when I tore the car apart - there was a little hole surrounded in rust. In anger, I started chipping away all of the loose rust I could see with a screwdriver until it was gone. This was almost the point where I decided to say F-it and...

yikes. that should suck you back in the seat pretty hard... nice work

where are cometic and titan HGs made?

I wouldn't think there are many manufacturers attempting "knock off" headgaskets - this is probably from the same source as the branded gaskets, just sold by another company on cheapbay.

what is the story with the rear bar? I'd be interested in it in a few months (when i coincidentally return from australia - no, I don't have a supra here)

you are wasting your time breaking it in (or attempting to anyway) If it makes you feel better, check/adjust the torque on the head bolts/studs after driving the car a couple of times

i think a deep cherry pearl (near black) would look hot for the lower color. That car in the picture may very well have that color, but I cannot tell

here are a couple of the ones that I could find.

It isn't my dad doing the body work, we farmed that out, we're just working on the car together. As for the engine, currently, this is what it has going for it: (engine build performed before restoration, currently with ~55k kms) complete balanced and blueprinted rebuild w/ .5mm o/s...

here are the pictures of the shell painted. The car will be assembled in spring since that is when I am back home again (in australia right now) enjoy.

windshield seal could be one cause, the molding sounds like the most likely one though.

did you manage to change the rear main seal while the motor was on the engine stand? Also, is that a new wiring harness I see? Looks far too clean... nice work

i love the additional part comments
