    Looking for a new DD- Lexus IS300, or BMW 3-Series?

    I hear more comments like this than I would have thought! LOL. That's another thing, it needs to be kindof peppy. My job might me switching locations, which is why I'm asking this in the first place. My '94 Toyota Pickup rides like a rock, so if it's smoother than that, I'll likely be happy...

    Looking for a new DD- Lexus IS300, or BMW 3-Series?

    Whoever moved this, you bastid. I'm not posting pics of other cars, I'm ASKING about them! That's why I deliberately posted in the OT section, as to get more traffic, since I'm only asking opinions, and this section gets little traffic compared to OT... grrr...

    FFIM= clean bay

    This is the only pic I have of mine right now. Made by Ron R, and fitted with an Accufab 75mm throttlebody. Please excuse the sorry state of the engine bay, that was right in the middle of re-routing lots and lots of wiring and sensors. (not how there's a clean driver's side fenderwell- and no...

    Looking for a new DD- Lexus IS300, or BMW 3-Series?

    I don't work at a dealership, but I get the employee discount. Best of both worlds! ;) I'm still up in the air about it. I'd really like to get a nice, comfortable daily driver. Toyota quality has come a long way. Hell, the interior of the Supra is well built, and that's 20yrs old. I can only...

    Looking for a new DD- Lexus IS300, or BMW 3-Series?

    That's the kind of thing I keep hearing from BMW owners. :) Yes, I can afford the repair bills, they're not an issue, aside from the fact that I keep hearing about how unusual it is for them to break down. :)

    Looking for a new DD- Lexus IS300, or BMW 3-Series?

    I despise the clear altezza style tails on the new Lexus models. Ugh. Other than that, one doesn't appeal to me more than the other, which is why I made this thread. ;)

    Dim rear turn signals???

    That's a start. :) Is it flaky, scale type rust? If so, the continuity of the bulb holder could be compromised. Well, I suppose you can forget the above. :( That's kindof what it's starting to sound like to me. As for the fusible link, you have to split the fuse box in half to...

    Why is the 2jzgte so much better?

    I hate to rain on your parade, but the BHG issue on 7M's isn't caused by the metal used in the block, it's caused by the low torque figure on the headbolts. Which, of course, is remedied by using some ARP hardware, and torquing them down properly... Before you go spouting off information like...

    Update: 7/12/09- White car stripped for paint

    Gotcha, that's why I polished mine- just to make them easier to clean. Wipe 'em down, and you're done! They're too porous in stock form. Oh yeah, that's why I refuse to put any of the old stuff back on, and I'm one step ahead of you with the anti-seize. ;) I have some left from when I did...

    why do you make your supra fast?

    Because I'm an absolute idiot. I mean, seriously, who would want to own a car that's been beat to crap by it's previous owners, left out to rot and die, and be in so many various states of disrepair, that it takes several years to get it just so things don't fall off of it when you drive...

    '05 Toyota Tacoma Blues (Beware, lengthy spell/grammar checked rant inside)

    Wow. That's incredible. :( I'm really sorry, man. I have a '94, and it treats me just fine. No problems. Sounds like when you're done putting money into this truck, it'll be like brand new again. :(

    Anyone have a 05+ Tacoma?

    22re powered trucks didn't come with R series transmissions, unless you got the 22rte. The 4x4 22re powered trucks had w56's in them. (at least the '89-94's)

    Is this normal shifter operation?(Silly Vid)

    That socket is different in the w58. I'm very tired, so I might have picked the wrong diagram. But, it's a start. Off to bed! http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/EPC/291410/catalog.aspx?F=3307&P=1

    has anyone seem this front lip on mk3 supra

    Yeah, you don't fit the requirements to sell here on SM. So, why exactly are you trying to come here and sell? I'm editing out all that B.S. as it's quite dodgy, and you're NOT allowed to just waltz into our house and do as you please. You're a guest here, and will be treated as such. Oh, and...
