yeah i'd imagine. i bet somebody would go and install some bad parts intentionally make it look like shit... then enter. i haven't seen too many rustbuckets on here but i guess anybody with one would be reluctant to post a pic i guess :naughty:

cool. thanks for the info on him. I wonder who took the time to scan every page of the manual...if thats how it works....yikes!! QUESTION!: I removed my distributor assuming i could find the match marks and didnt pay attention to where the rotor was pointing much less exactly where the gear...

bobiseverywhere- by that quote are you second-ing my idea? or did you forget to type something? Either way...if i can polish my car and get a high-res camera i'm in for this month. sadly its going to be tight!! with school, and my current engine work i might not have money for a good polish...

I was just thinking that maybe it would be cool if the current month and then the next month after that were posted every time a new month comes around....like AUGUST: Naturally Aspirated Month September: Hardtop Month That way we can get a heads up on the month to follow the one that...

ok here you go... awsome pic on cygnusx1 if anyone knows who this guy is PM me and tell me so i can thank him. lol. http://www.cygnusx1.net/supra/library/EPC/MKIII_NATO/291410/1708_2.html

shaweeet!! now i can pick one up! as soon as i finish blowing money on other things that is :nono: woah shaweeet. i didnt have a clue if it was good or bad or even dangerous (i believe some electronics can be) so now i'm anxious to try it out! i hope my power antenna works b/c i've never...

::w00t:: Bought some nifty stuff today... probably try to get the studs helicoiled today...at least the broken ones. there are two studs i'm going to try just installing new toyota parts because the new studs are longer for some reason (i wonder? lol) and they havent moved yet...

thank you that helps a lot. we have a 90 degree adapter but dad says its crap...may need to buy new if this is true. didnt think of the lube...definatly need that. i take it 10mm is what i want if i'm sticking to the stock studs (new parts) I already bought some new studs and they have a...

woah man, congrats on that award....impressive numbers. right now you have about 3.5 times my car's power. must be fun! lol.....yeah....

shaweet. now we know one parts car.

BAD news all..... and thanks mickyg for your help. OK! well... i havent touched the head because i was running around getting oil, filters, and new belts (no timing belt this time around) and when i got back i was bolting on the exaust......and what i feared happened...... 2 more studs...

oh and one more thing... what do you guys think on the torque in my situation? I've heard lots of different things. i wont go higher than 72ft/lbs because i've read that webpage on the bolt tests done on 7m head bolts. right now its been sitting at 60 ft/lbs for over a day. i'm wonding...

OH yes it does. yeah the other way would be...uh...stupid? lol. thanks. ok, thanks. now that i realised how this is done it seems much eaiser. i did that do my EGR cover because someone ruined its surface. I have another question about the valve clearance...i think its the only...

oh ok. ......lol.

you know...as my dad keeps telling me...i should stop worrying...it wont help me at all. i should just get the damn thing done. nothing i can do now anyway. thanks IJ.

so...the usual life on the seals??? anybody? IJ why the heck does it say you're offline but obviously reading this as i type.

too late then. i thought it was part of the valve job idea... he said i didnt need one and i didnt know. is there a difference between getting a valve job and changing the seals? can i do this while the head is on? i heard its not easy. this is upsetting..i've done everything the best i could.

i dont have the cams on yet.... i can still do the check.. but if they are loose how does removing material help? THAT doesnt make sence. can i get the tool to remove the material without spending a bundle or do i have to get a machine shop to remove some for me? my dad is with me. hes...

i'm wondering the same thing. i dont like 100 at toyota...i've spent a lot lately.

Well I believe those metal and rubber pieces that came in my toyota kit are valve seals...and i didnt use them. Good luck with that head gasket set...my dealer was stupid to say the least... when i got there to pick up my stuff they gave me some hoses some clamps and almost let me walk out...
