    How to Mount an ipod / itouch in a Supra?

    Bump for my new headunit-less setup. Just bought this Griffin Navigate Ipod Controller from Best Buy. Cost was like $40. Even has a built in FM tuner, so you can listen to FM through this, not transmit to an FM station. It has the data cable in, about 2' of cord, then the controller, which has...

    My '90 3E5 Turbo Targa :)

    So I bought an Ipod controller today, sick of fiddling with the Ipod while driving, and it occurred to me that the controller was the perfect size for the TEMS switch area. Traced the TEMS switch plate onto the back of this textured ABS that I have and cut it out, did the same for the...

    Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

    Sam: They are the loveliest of lovely wheels. Quite expensive new, but can be had used occasionally. Check these sites periodically: www.rbwheels.com www.pandagarage.com to name a couple. MKIV Supra fitment is good, FD RX7 and 350z Fitment is on the aggressive side depending on size of course.

    If you played the Lottery, and won - what would you spend the money on?

    I've spoken to my GF about this before, and my list goes, in order. Call in to work rich that morning ;) Probably work till they find someone, since I'm not a douche. That day, I'd come home with a new Audi TT, the GF's always drooling over them. Call Vermont Sports Cars and have them build...

    I didn't know coil packs cost so much

    My black supra did before I bought it, according to the seller and carfax. Actually did enough damage to total the car.

    A few things I'm doing to my car.......again.

    Have you had the college paint your car before? There's a tech school local to me and I have wondered if it was worthwhile to have them paint my car for the same deal, cost of paint and supplies. Makes me worry, though. I envision painted exhaust, wheels, and gas tank. Although I suppose I...

    Good questions to ask when buying a new car?

    Buying a modified car is a totally different experience than any other car. I make my judgement based off of a few factors: car cleanliness what the owner is like (if he's a total douche or a numbskull, it's usually a walk-away type situation) how the mods were performed (i.e. zip ties...

    Concerning "The Great Fuel Filter Myth" Article

    I bought a Hastings filter for mine when I worked at a parts store. Never installed it. The way I figure it, Toyota has their methods. They say the filter is good for 20+ years and a quadrillion miles, and it's a pain in the ass to change. I feel it's worth the extra $$ for the filter that...

    (battery)Starting issues HELP !!!

    Did you replace the known bad fuses and such? Are you sure that the terminals were to blame? Some batteries have a reverse terminal polarity, so the +/- will be -/+. I'm willing to bet that's what happened. Grab the numbers off your friend's battery and compare it to yours. I bet one has an...

    Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

    ^ Those would fit pretty good without having to roll the fenders. They wouldn't be sunk, but they wouldn't be flush.
