why not test them first? ;) -shaeff

yes rust free, yes that's a tony fender, and in a few weeks you'll see the rear fender cutouts from mello's yellow car welded into my car. in more ways than one, that makes me so very sad. :( -shaeff

"drivable" doesn't necessarily mean daily drivable, it just means i can actually move the car and not have it on jackstands like it is currently. i still need to fabricate some IC hardpipes before it's able to be boosted. -shaeff

i pull my motor to change my oil, so i'm not exactly sure what you're talking about, colin. haha. :) that being said, i browsed this thread quickly, and didn't see any mention of rear main seal leaking oil onto the clutch. it's a possibility, but then again, that might show up on the ground...

NSX headlights for the win: and yes, it's quite a bit more difficult than it looks. ask me how i know... or better yet, ask my radiator support how it knows. :( no, none of the above pics are of my car, though i'm getting very close to that point. ;) -shaeff

i totally forgot about this event! dammit. i was going to go just to hang out. :( i hate my life. -shaeff

haha, yeah, that's what i've been up to. i'm hoping to have it drivable by 3 weeks from now, and painted within the next two months. i'll be tuning it while it's unpainted and multi-colored, though. ;) on the road to 400+rwhp... ;) as i said before, it's this damn headlight project that's...

ah, i see. if you're trying to get the turbo elbow off, heat it with a small torch, leave the turbo braces on, and give it a few taps here and there. don't really beat on it, as the head is aluminum as we all know, and you don't wanna be ripping out the exhaust manifold studs. PB blast has...

haha! :icon_razz -shaeff

oh man, you guys are killing me! it's been down since about october or so. but it was my choice to make it how it is. nothing broke to make me take it apart. i posted a thread some time ago about how rusty it is, so i'm fixing that. once i get the NSX light project out of the way (should be...

at least you have another to mess with! :) these NSX headlights are killin' me! but i think i've got it all figured out. the bracket you see in that pic isn't going to be used. i've got some supplies/parts coming within the next week or so, and that should almost wrap up that project, then on...

i miss my car. :( -shaeff

^ i was thinking of cutting my bumper support to fit my 12x24 IC, but i decided not to. i'll mount it a different way, once i get my current hold up out of the way... looks really good though! -shaeff

^ yep. i did mine a few months ago. by far, it was the most pain in the ass job i've done on the supra. i'd rather pull 6 motors in 6 days than do that crap again. :( i used a sawzall, and a torch when i finally got fed up with it. (short bursts with the torch). i had new nylon bushings, so...

lookin' good, joe. :) that was the cleanest mk3 i've ever seen in person. :) keep it up! -shaeff

i don't want to state the obvious, but did you loosen all of the bolts and turbocharger support brackets? -shaeff

this info has been on mkiiitech for quite a while: http://www.mkiiitech.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=374 -shaeff

no. you need an '89+ sensor. it doesn't matter whether or not the car is turbo. the OP sending units were identical between turbo and N/A. they are smaller from '89-'92. the only difference is size. the reason you need it is because jon at MDC made the kit using an '89+ oil pressure...

glassjaw- tip your bartender -shaeff

the '89+ OP sending unit is just smaller. otherwise identical. -shaeff
