    i m soo annoyed!!, Moving to Plan B

    When I pulled apart my perfectly running, not overheating, not coolant using GTE in my red car, it was millimeters from actually blowing the seal around 2 of the water jackets. Even if you dont actually have a bad HG, if its stock and never been done its gonna need it anyway, one way or another...

    ohh yeah? thats cool, my deal fell through so looks like Im still driving the jeep. Have you gone and looked at that black one up on Witham Hill yet? There are several mk3's within 300 miles of here that are under 2k. Are you looking for a project or a runner? How much do you have to spend? If...

    i m soo annoyed!!, Moving to Plan B

    Over heating is either going to be caused by excessive heat introduction (i.e. What Suprra girl said or bhg from a cylinder to a water jacket) or lack of adaquate heat reduction (i.e. bad radiator, water restriction, lack of airflow). I dont recall seeing the answer to this in your...

    What is this guy thinking?

    The seller is a douchenozzle, the car itself doesnt seem so bad and not that far off on price.

    What in the hell have I gotten myself into?

    Ha, I didnt even notice that until you said it. I have no idea whats up with that. Anyone know how to get rid of it? Another thing I noticed is that my sig appears multiple times on a page instead of just the first post.

    Bluechulappa's 89Turbo restoration

    sounds like a low battery from the description. Got a charger? If that still doesnt work alot of times just while sitting the battery connections can corrode enough to make it not start.

    Dispute resolution

    "estimates" are just that...estimations on final cost based on the information given at the time...when things change (work added, unforseen troubles arise, vendors change prices, etc) the end price can vary greatly. now a price "quote" is a different matter and most times is quoted a...

    ROTM 2008 MAY WINNER: Tanya -AKA- TANYA

    Good to see a mk2 representing SM as a ROTM winner. You are right Tanya, she photographs well ;) but I think your hard work shows regardless of her little flaws. Seeing such a nice looking mk2 keeps inching me closer to one every day.

    Why do I need a -10AN oil drain for a DBB w/ 1MM oil restrictor ?

    yeah, thats ugly. Any room to clock the center section a little starboard and use a longer hose? I also found a 130 degree fitting off the turbo helps make that transition to the block a little smoother.

    How Many Would Like These..... *PICS*

    Those look really nice nick. IMHO they are bettter than the one peice fiberglass ones. They look to have better fitment (so long as the duplicates are exatly the same. Imagine color matched on a white package, or blacked out on a black supie...yumm! (I dont have a Sup' right now so my...

    little problems

    yes the switches arent that hard to take apart, but I suggest in addition to some air that you use some contact cleaner and follow that up with dielectric grease just before re-assembly.

    Required winch pull for Supra -> Trailer

    Well Asterix's math may not take into account everything but its probably closer than just throwing out a wild guess. Assuming you dont have any serious drag (locked brakes, flat tires, etc.) a 2000lb winch should be sufficiant. Also remember those ratings on winches are the "safe" range...
