    Anyone use this body kit, or ever seen it on a Supra?

    I find it sort of odd I haven't seen these before. I mean, i'm new to the forums, but i've had mkIII's over the last 12 years. It looks like if anything they might be on clearance. Perhaps they're getting rid of the stuff because they have poor marketing - has anybody heard of these...

    Differential

    Sound Performance gave me a loose estimate of anywhere between $300 - $800 depending on what exactly was needed (they would be doing the labor to remove the diff as well). In truth, it's not really about saving money, it's more about me feeling like I would be missing an opportunity to learn...

    Differential

    Thanks for the info... I did not find that when I searched... So it seems like the removal will be easy based on the first response and a skim of the TSRM. As a person who has never done this type of thing before, should I attempt the rebuild, find a used LSD, or ????

    Differential

    Hi guys. My differential is making some noise and is in need of a rebuild (or replacement). I had a few questions I was hoping some of you might be able to answer. 1. How easy is it to remove and rebuild one of these things? Am I better off leaving this to the professionals? 2. From...

    Damn it.

    I had that same conversation about 3 years ago. I was at work when a buddy asked if I had laid my bike down over the weekend... I thought he was f*cking with me. When I went out to check out my bike, it looked like somebody hit it with their car and then propped it back up. It was a black...

    Awesome! This is just the type of info I am looking for. I am definitely going to start a post as soon as I get everything together I think I will need. That way people can let me know what I'm missing. I am really interested in having the machinist do anything that will be better for the...

    did i just ruin ALL of my DVD's and CD's? holy shit...

    Sorry for my ignorance, but what/why are we looking at these pictures? Has the maker affected the data surface? Or are you just illustrating the different disc layers?

    The article does not use any credible evidence to back up the stated claims. Disk writer pens were originally created because most markers don't write well on the top surface, not to protect data.

    TEST YOUR MIGHT!

    Mine was pretty consistent across all of the servers (except one up in Canada). Having a huge download speed like that isn't going to do much for internet browsing. It certainly helps with large file downloading, though. The upload speed is really important for me though, I upload a lot of...

    I would be in favor of changing any recommended parts that are easier to do now than they would be at a later date. I would rather do more and be safe than do less and end up having to do it anyway.

    Thanks for the tip - If you have other suggestions about what I should do while I'm in there, let me know. I have a koyo radiator coming and am thinking hard about an intercooler, DP, high-flow cat and catback. I have about three weeks (starting 5/12) to get this car into nice, reliable (as...

    I have read through the TSRM (more than once) and will be doing it again. I do not have a problem following directions. In my own experience though, there are always little tricks or subtleties that aren't conveyed in instructions for something involved like this. Believe me, I have...

    I know, I know - I'm acting like a puss, but my biggest fear is getting this thing apart and not being able to get it back together. I would much rather have somebody to help. I used to help people all of the time with audio installations, etc. so I don't think I am unique in wanting to...
