    Not sure how it would handle flexing. You might be able to just use a standard flex agent in the mix but I'm not certain. You'd just have to try it and see.

    Ok... opinions on this rust

    It's all the way through. Most body rust looks like surface rust, but when it's spread that large, it's too late. As soon as you sand it you'll have holes.

    Rear quarter glass?

    It's not hard. Just follow the TSRM. If the old window is broken, you really don't even need the piano wire. You can get the butyl tape to seal it up from an autoglass place or even some autobody stores. I got mine from CarQuest.

    *this guy needs aristo ecu diargams*

    No diagrams here, but I'm going to guess that it's SFI like the 2JZ Supra, and in that case you'll need the MKIV Supra TT resistor pack.

    Cleaning up a bit

    LOL @ the old interior. Looks like you just need some carpet now. The engine bay looks good.

    2JZ swap *BUILD THREAD*

    Here is a picture of the back of the intake on a JDM 2JZ: No EGR on JDM 2JZ I don't see anything there that resembles EGR provisions. Yes, there are soft plugs, but compare that to the USDM intake photos here: USDM 2JZ Intake Photos Notice how the EGR attaches to the top of the manifold...

    2JZ swap *BUILD THREAD*

    USDM cams are more agressive USDM turbo's are steel turbine wheels vs JDM ceramic Also the JDM's have 440cc high impedance (saturation) injectors vs USDM 550cc low impedance (peak and hold) It's the same engine, but then again it's not. There are many differences. Basically, the USA wasn't...

    Ecks' Jet Black Supra

    Wow, that car is mint. You have to love Toyota's. 247K and looks new. The gauge cluster plastic isn't too expensive from the dealer. HPF also has them: http://www.horsepowerfreaks.com/performanceparts/Toyota/Supra_86-92/Interior/Gauge_Trims

    Rear quarter glass?

    The glass itself is easy to change. Just follow the TSRM. The thing that sucks is that you have to take most of the interior out of the back of the car to do it.

    New Headgasket Opportunity

    I really hope this goes through. Not because I have a 7M or a BHG, but simply because someone is willing to develop a new MKIII product - that chance doesn't come around for us often enough in this community. If it works as advertised, it will provide a simpler solution to one of the most...

    Got my new Lambo hinges today. They're huge!!

    Cool. An install write-up would be killer.

    Head to Wal-Mart and get some prep-all and some tack rags. Wipe your parts down with the prep-all before you spray. That will get rid of any grease, silicone, and other contaminants that would cause fisheyes. Once that dries, wipe it with the tack rag to get rid of any remaining dust and lint...
