    Help finding thread about front window rubber trim, (or something like that)

    Good catch Lonnie, I believe you are correct on this one. :)

    Powder Coated 1J Manifold

    I dig it. Looks 10x better than the greasy before pictures. Any plans to fix the valve cover leak so these stay clean? ;)

    BIC Downpipe vs EBay

    I had a BIC ddp on my 7m shortly after I bought the car. Loved the performance (and the sound), but only got to enjoy it for about 2-3 months before I trashed my crank... I would recommend it. You can always sell it for a decent amount down the road if you change your turbo to something...

    Personal Sponsored Projects

    Shine Auto hooked me up with a diffuser for all the effort/cash I put in to make sure the S2 front fender group buy went through, those guys are awesome. As for this place (Supramania), it has given me a LOT of encouragement and inspiration. That counts for a LOT in my book. :)

    MKIII Supra Spoilers?

    Could always go for a Regulus or a Kaminari, but be prepared to pony up some money for one... That said, they look damned good, without screaming "look at me!". Same with the whale tail, and they are much easier to come by.

    For Speaker Sizes and Questions Click Here

    You'll likely need to pull the whole panel off. Quite easy though, there are about 6-7 screws along the bottom edge of the door, two bolts in the handle itself, and one screw in the bucket where the door lever is. Takes all of about 10 minutes your first time. :)

    Super Charged NA

    Suppressors? My harness was pretty well hacked up when I bought the car. Not quite sure what you might be talking about, but I'm guessing it is an inline filter of some sort? If so, might not have been on my car when I got it...

    What The F*ck??

    Someone brought up another thread in off topic more recently than the last one. Again, New Jersey does terrible things to the taste of some people.

    Another Nutjob... Mass shooting in Colorado

    This is what I'm interested in... did someone let him in? Every theater I've ever been to that I can remember, did not have handles on the outside of the emergency exits. You know, some people are just too naive to believe that criminals or the people like this would be unable to get guns if...

    Another new toy for me

    Chase, you really DO live in Texas (flagpole, star on the garage, big pickups)... :p Car looks nice though man. We don't have too many GS or LS around here. A handful of SC's, but not too many of the 4 door cars.

    92 4-runner dead 3.slow

    Are you still in dire need of getting this thing fixed? If not, I would suggest changing the thread title to something like "vehicle XXXXX not running, thoughts?" that way people don't come in here all super eager to fix something that isn't urgent. :)

    1JZ-GTE VVTi BOV Mod

    I'm running a 1j on stock twins, also it is MAP based rather than the MAF of the vvti engines. Running a Turbosmart manual boost controller, on its lowest setting. Good news is, I've gotten it to where the BOV spring is loose enough, it only hits fuel cut maybe once or twice in 2nd gear. Before...

    just a quick question concerning pricing things..

    The bumpers (and any of the urethane parts on the body) have a tendency to fade quicker than the metal parts. Same thing happened on my old 88. General rule of thumb concerning shells, assuming all have a decent interior: Rare shell (91/92 cars, some colors), or excellent condition body/trim...

    MX-83 Cressida questions. 7M-GTE swap?

    Check under the hood of the Cressida, it should tell you an axle code... that will be good info in determining whether or not they'll swap easily enough. ;)

    New CT26 dyno 573lbs of torque

    Nevermind, I was confusing torque for HP. Not gonna run a 10 with 470whp in a car this heavy. :p That's too bad. You're right about Tyler though, guy is a madman. I've known a few people who synchros fear, and he is one of them. ;) Correct, knew something was off there with the tire size...

    Super Charged NA

    Ground loop isolation, is what I've been told... we fixed the problem with my 88 (same one, different car) by adding a ground to the aftermarket deck, and cleaned up the ground for the amp. I really don't mind, you barely hear it unless you're on a quiet song and the volume is pretty loud. :p

    Toyota scion fr-s!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Another thing I'm interested in, is that Greddy is working on tuning the FA20 engine in these. Both turbo and NA products from what I read in a recent Super Street (believe it was SS). Anyway, I think with the 12.5:1 compression AND boost, this will be an insanely fun and responsive car. Now the...

    Quickest way to pull an engine (not sure if repost)

    Definitely a repost, I believe I mentioned that a buddy of mine and I pulled an engine out a wrecked Supra with a Yukon and a chain in the other thread... Anyway, to post a video in a thread, put tags on either side of the URL for the video, like so...

    Don't suppose you took a picture or two of the car? I dig wagons. :)
