    Just got my supra home! YAY! Couple questions

    1. Your bird is gone (a little joke among supra owners). 2. You suspension issues could be bad bushings, tie rods, or ball joints. 3. Blown struts or cracked rear subframe could cause this issue. Congratulations and welcome to the stage of your life where you donate your life savings to...

    Downforce

    If you don't have a lot of mods, I'd say there is a good chance you have some suspension or rear subframe issues. Early model MK3 supra's are known to have more brittle rear subframes. We really need more information though.

    SILV05 Road Course - URGENT

    I would definitely love to come to this because I love to auto-x and track my car, but I'm on the other side of the U.S..:( Everyone, for the amount of driving time you get, this is one of the best investments per dollar you can find ANYWHERE!!!

    Who attended the NASHVILLE supra meet yesterday?

    So, a highway battle entails crusing then? A battle means you were racing. I'll stop taking things seriously when people stop posting misinformation. :icon_razz You are correct that 500hp n/a and 500hp turbo are different in terms of powerband, but it is STILL 500hp. I know I sure as hell...

    Helicoil, in car

    I had a little trouble getting mine to go in at first, but out of the 12 coils I had to play with, I got the last hole filled with the last coil. It was tense, but what I did was just drill, tap, vacuum, lube with WD-40, re-tap, vacuum, and lube again. This ensured I made it as easy as...

    Helicoil, in car

    I think the T-handle is easier to use for lining something up, but I guess it's just personal preference.

    Interesting AVCR Mounting Position

    I must have missed the part where you said you'd never look at it. Sorry. As for the theives not knowing where to look....they do now, especially since you posted it on SF.

    Interesting AVCR Mounting Position

    Ok, I'm not one of the retarded people thinking it is going on the passenger side. I know it's going on the driver's side, but think about this; have you ever looked in a mirror on a driver's side visor while driving? If you have, you will notice that your eyes completely focus on the visor...

    Interesting AVCR Mounting Position

    You don't understand my point. 20 CD's spread their weight evenly across the visor. Now, take all 20 of those CD's and put them in one pocket in the middle. Now, go do some spirited driving and I'm sure you'll notice a difference. ;)

    Interesting AVCR Mounting Position

    Are you going to take off the lid section that you have to open? If not, that's going to be a pain in the ass to get a good look at. The originality is there, but I wouldn't do it for fear of the extra weight making the visor sag eventually and the fact that since it is in a visor, there is...

    sanctioned night time canyon/drifting

    I'm surprised Siman hasn't jumped in on this... Unfortunately, there's no way they (the authority) would sanction something like this.

    Anyone auto-x their supra in the rain? I might...

    It was at Oak Ridge Mall. Rumor is though, that they won't be letting the SCCA do it there next year. :(

    What's your occupation?

    Where do you live? Minimum wage in the U.S. is $5.15/hour. Is that Canadian?

    Nashville meet, July 23rd.

    So, is anyone on SF going to attend this thing? I saw your thread there, too, but didn't know if those people were backing out, too.
