Not bad times, just a little slow outta the hole. She finally popped on ya, eh? Well, I guess it took a beating for a long time first!

Apparently it is a matter of opinion. I've gotten really damn fast at swapping transmissions so I now perfer to pull it first, then the engine.

:withstupi 100%!! EDIT: Well, maybe not 100%, how about 99.9%?! I'm going to go post my Supra FS on SF and link it here. I'm such a loser! :kaboom:

Beh, I'm an old-school car guy. This is by far the newest car I've ever owned. My background is made up of multiple old Impalas, an El Camino, a LeMans wagon, etc... I never had things like A/C and power windows and such so I don't miss them now. To me it's just like having one of my old...

Jersey, mine's a hardtop. Maybe one of our scales isn't accurate? I did find another place where I can weigh it. When I do I'll post the results.

Ok, Jeff just reminded me of some other things that are gone... Rear wiper motor/arm All TEMS equipment All Airbag Equipment Stock steering wheel replaced with Sparco wheel Rear speakers removed Stock deck removed Charcoal canister removed Antennae leads removed Power steering cooler...

Doom, I gotta agree with Siman on that one. Everyone who sits in my Sparco's is amazed by how comfy they are. I used to get a backache when on long trips in the stock seat, I honestly don't have that problem with the Sparco's.

I beleive the GVWR is fully loaded weight, including passengers. Granted not all people weigh the same, but I think they have a number they have decided to use.

Whatever you guys want to do is fine with me. Just lmk and I'll update the first page.

Things that cut weight... Stock hood replaced with fiberglass cowl hood Front seats replaced with Sparco Torino's Rear seats removed Windsheild washer resivoir removed ABS removed A/C removed Cruise control removed Stock fuel tank replaced with custom fuel cell in trunk Sound deadener...

I finally found a scale locally that has a nice road leading to it so a Bob took his Nova and I took my Supra and weighed them both. The 63, 2-dr hardtop Nova is still lighter, but not as much as we expected. The stock bodied Nova with 530/700R4 weighed in at 2,970 pounds. My 90 hardtop...

Bravo, Empera!! Great pics!!!

Matt, I think it's an 85. I tried calling, but didn't get him. I think it's his office number maybe, so I'll call tomorrow during the day. Jeb, when you pick a meeting point in Indy can you also get the actualy physical address for me? Then everyone can mapquest directly to it. Thanks! Wes...

I'm shocked to say the least. I thought this was a joke when I first saw the thread...I wish it were. I've known Mike's car for a long time now, but barely knew him. I just spent 30-45 minutes on the phone with him on Tuesday evening and he seemed like a really genuinly nice guy. To Mike's...

Wow! I'd say it's hooking just fine! lol! Eh, damned elbow is too big. I'm running an elec speedo, so I have a hall-effect sensor that was hooking to the elbow. If it were going to be cable operated I'd have it going already. K.I.S.S. would've been a good motto for me on it I suppose! lol! I...

Great info Dave, thanks! Now I know exactly what to get as I'm running Eibach's also! lol! Do you know what kind of power the car made, what kind of times it ran, and how well it hooked? Any additional info would be appreciated! Thanks!

Wow, I must say this is a great thread! I can't beleive it's taken me this long to read through it. I'm such a slacker! lol! I certainly didn't expect to see my name here... Thanks, you guys made my day! My fav MKIII/biggest inspiration is by far Ron R's car. Dead sexy!! It has it...
