    What vacuum mods to make?

    Be aware that if you vent the aftermarket blowoff valve to the atmosphere(rather than recirculating it), you will generally encounter stumbling and stalling issues after letting off boost. That is, if you're on the stock MAF.

    Finally upgraded...

    Thanks. Yeah, I like the oem color matching, but you can change both the button and backlight colors separately to any combination that you can imagine.

    Finally upgraded...

    If any of you saw my other thread, I actually DID upgrade my '89 tape deck to a 2001 Camry tape/cd deck, and it was way better than the original.

    rod/main bearings

    No experience really. What sort of motor are you building? If it's just a mild upgrade, I'd go with ITM.

    rod/main bearings

    Too bad you're not on FB anymore. We have local mk2/mk3 meets on a semi-regular basis. What part of Atlanta are you in? I'm in Lawrenceville. LMK if you need anything for your build.

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Replaced my: Clutch master Clutch slave Power steering pressure line All three were leaking. Then I retorqued the mls head gasket. Previous owner had only torqued it to like 45 ft-lbs. That would explain why I was pushing coolant into the overflow bottle.

    Leaky shifter retainer gasket

    How To: Replace driveshaft support bearing

    Just an update, I drove the car a few times, and she's nice and smooth on the highway, no issues. I do still have the slightest of clunks, when releasing the clutch to move, but i expect that the is due to a 200,000 mile diff, with slack in the pinion crush collar, etc. its almost imperceptible...

    Project: Git'R driving...a VERY short build

    So yesterday, I got busy on replacing the bad pressure plate. But before I went through the trouble of assembling it all, I wanted to assemble it on the bench to make sure it was all good. So, I installed the disc, and bolted down the new, new pressure plate, in proper sequence, and looked it...
