    Facime's Mk2 build

    The day before yesterday I decided to get under thec ar and look at the cause of the flex plate noise. Inspection cover was already missing and a complete revolution of the motor revealed of the 6 bolts holding the flex plate to the TC, 4 were snapped off and the last two were the wrong length...

    Should I buy it?

    its a no brainer really. Parts or fix it up, either way if its a mostly complete car you cant go wrong. I got a parts car with no engine/trans/diff for $500 and parted it out for well over $1000 in total.

    Hit and Run, WTF IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE

    disturbing, but not surprising. unfortunately, just stopping to help people along side the road sometimes has ugly consequences. Here in Oregon there was serial rapist on the loose along I-84. Sodomized a woman and made her boyfreind watch helplessly. As a man I rarely sense that kind of...

    Weird Clutch problem after tranny install and Drag racing.

    I dont know if its good or bad but I never like to use any chemical (liquid solvent or otherwise) on the disk material. PP and flywheel yeah, but if the disk is greasy to begin with, cleaning it with brake cleaner isnt going to help. Im thinking that would just help the oil penetrate right into...

    Facime's Mk2 build

    Oh Im not expecting its demise, but Im prepared for it though. I think it will be a fine car, Im just worried about buying it sight unseen. I already got a shop thats going to repaint the bumper for me. Also, its just a possibility, but I may be coming home with 2 mk2's. And Ken, I liked...

    How to tow a Supra with Dakota...

    drive wheels turn transmission internals, on a manual box thats ok, thats how its designed to work. On an auto transmission its basically a hydraulic pump powered by the torque converter and turning the internals without fluid circulating = bad. For very short distances its not the end of the...

    So where's all the weight???

    all those weights up there are great info, might be a good idea to compile that with the other weights list before this thread gets lost in time. As I suspected the hood is far lighter than most people realize, even if you did take some bracing off. The doors were the thing I thought were...
