one word: investment no, I dont consider the car itself as an investment. I dont want to give up on something I have so much time, money, energy, blood sweat and tears into. I can assure you however, I dont think Im like most Supra owners. I could part with my car in a second if the price was...

Scroggins is near DT. Basically 59 and 45

ok, couldnt find anything online so I called PTE. The first number is the flow data, marked as lbs @ 90% duty cycle (this was right from the horses mouth). So in my case 50.5 - 50.8 is what I have. The second number is a date, 3227 being Mar22 07. So thats the deal on the numbers.

lol, ok ya got me. The fact that they were black had me going. I am still trying to decide on some wheels myself. If there is one single element on a car that sets the tone for the rest of the car its the wheels so its important to get the right ones. I have a tight budget so I am limited by...

Fondren and Braeswood, basically just off 59 inside the loop.

yes and specifically hand sanding in all the nooks and crevises of a job like that. I hate it so much that I usually end up screwing up the filler because I try to work it just a little too long trying to get it smooth. Ken I cant say Im in love with those wheels but they definately will be...

Well you Houston area guys are suddenly coming outta the woodwork, lol. I didnt even know how many thre were here. Last night I got in this big discussion with my roomy and it turned south. Hes a drinker and Im sober about 16months now. Needless to say it wasnt a meeting of the minds, but...

:eek3: :runaway:

Kinda hard to do that with my can in about 1000 pieces! lol Yeah, the roommate is killing any experience here. But yeah, I can tell you I aint staying here. Of the places Ive been in my life (Ive lived in 7 different states) This ranks right about the bottom of the list, and its not EVEN...

ROFL, that made me spit up on my keyboard. :biglaugh:

ok, well not exactly. It turns out that my new roommate and I dont get along. Amazing, since we've known each other for a long time and never had fights before. Apparently now in close proximity we cant communicate very well. Anyway, its a long story but it turns out that I will not be staying...

werent Superman's gay ass tights blue? I rest my case. :biglaugh: LOL, who do all our threads degrade into red/blue contests. We need to start a new era of detente. Blue and Red need to team up and start baggin on all the defenseless white ones! HAHA

Hey Ken, I have to admit I have been in my own world a tad lately so I missed this. Im sorry I wasnt here to provide a little 3E5 support fo ya my brotha. The skirts are going to be awesome. You have to keep telling yourself that as you do all that hand sanding. Believe me I know. Big flat...

There are numbers inscribed on my new injectors and I assume these are the flow bench numbers but Im unsure how to read them. Can anyone shed some light on this topic for a bonehead like me? Part number on the injector is D1151BA. These are the standard PTE 550s, I was just...

why is there yet another thread about this topic. I can tell you from experience that you've already made up your mind, just like I did. Im now rebuilding my motor... I belong to the didnt listen club. When you get here I'll show you where the tissues are.

no...measly, as in - small, paltry, meager, inadaquate.

I actually agree with the fact that its more of a technical history than anything. Its the kind of thing you read if you just want a mechanical overview of the various models. Prehaps a more subjective look at how the 2000gt was the precurser to the line. Maybe try to find and discuss styling...

Right, I wasnt thinking. For some reason I had in my head that the exit of the intercooler was the same for both of us. Now I see the error of that thinking. Good luck with that.

unfortunately mine is all pulled apart but I have the set-up you are referring to. Out of the turbo I used a 70* pipe then a slight bend needed to be made for mine (you can get away with a hump coupler) to make it parallel with the car from there is about 9inches of straight pipe to a 90*...
