    Is it just me, or this a bit....er...cletus?

    ^^ That says everything that needs to be said about the aforementioned "project". For example, when we built the race cars, we had all the equipment needed to do the work "in house". (MIG, TIG, All the stainless you could imagine, etc..) We built the motors, we did a lot of the work...

    The (old) Official Gun Thread.

    On a different, but still on topic note: Went to the Cherokee County Courthouse to "renew" my carry permit. I say "renew" as I let it expire too long and now they consider all applications as "new" permit requests - no more streamlined renewals anyway. Which would suck. Except my permit...

    “cash for clunkers” program

    Anyone who "need reliable transportation and realy own a cluncker" can't afford a car payment or qualify for a loan. The vast majority of people who own piece of shit cars own them as a matter of necessity, not as a matter of choice. Where do you get your information from? Once again...

    Prefered street legal tire that performs for drags too?

    I wouldn't recommend the VictoRacer V700's for drag racing however. Sidewalls are too stiff and they won't last through burnouts very long. It's a road race tire. Agreed. I'm partial to Mickey Thompson Drag Radials myself. We run 8 second quarter miles on them. This is on a DOT approved...

    should i cut my springs???

    nose, while I can agree with you in principle, most people who cut springs aren't going to do do it correctly. Springs are cheap. Dirt cheap. It's dampers and coilovers that cost money. Most of the time when you see someone who wants to cut springs, it's because they are broke. They'll want...

    cosworth guy to see supras

    You can remove the water neck and tap & helicoil it, or replace it. Only 2 nuts and 1 bolt hold it on. There are probably a few for sale in the classifieds, or you can post a WTB ad in the appropriate section.

    should i cut my springs???

    Moved from SME forum to general - this is way too basic. To answer your question: NO I'll be blunt. Cutting springs is riceboy cheap ass bullshit. It's one of the dumbest things you can do to the suspension of your car. The search engine on this site is your friend - this topic has been...

    jza70 stalled, and will not start.

    While I don't disagree that it's easy and cheap to replace, it's also probably unnecessary: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=101090 I concur with the author of that article. I've personally owned 15 of these cars since 1990. I've owned a Supra performance shop and have worked...

    Plagiarism

    Long story - it's in another thread if you want to dig it up. But basically it wasn't worth the "process" that I'd have to go through to make it happen. I just rewrote it. And no, this thread wasn't created because of me - it was someone elses hard work that was stolen this time. However...

    Charging low.

    No, it does not. There are fusible links between the battery and the alternator. The TSRM will answer this for you. Check the wiring diagrams. The alternator is on this page: http://www.supracentral.com/foundation/tsrm/electrical-wiring-diagrams/ You can trace the routes from there.

    Oil Pressure drops :(

    That's what the "what oil was used" question was for - I expected a brand and a weight back. ;)
