    what is in your avatar?

    I always thought it was Kirillin from DB... but now I can see the blonde hair, and after the explanation, and looking at who is being smacked, it makes sense. Mine is my old 88 Supra, got some good shots that night. :)

    What Grinds Your Gears?

    Honestly, I can see both sides of the arguments. It could be argued that it's more economical (the green argument), or that if visibility is clear, there is no danger, I can definitely see that side of it. Unfortunately, that's not how it works, you know? Personally, I'd probably get really good...

    Not bad, not bad at all... first one kind of looks like the lady that drops off the uniforms for the guys in the shop.

    good old 50cent map clamp

    Ask yourself one question, and be honest with yourself: "is a few more HP worth the risk of blowing my engine?" What happens when things don't work out like you "think" they should based on something you've read online? I'll give you a hint, it's not good. ;)

    Rear passenger wheel sticks out further than the rear driverside??????????

    Had this happen with the aluminum hub centering rings for the Mk2... put the old P-type wheels back on it for a while, and when I removed the P-types to put the Konigs back on, I noticed one wheel only had a few threads of each nut holding the wheel on (since the P-type wheels are hub centric...

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    ...and do what? That is the question I've always presented myself with when the thought of selling a Supra pops into my head. I can't think of anything better to do with my time/energy/money as far as a car is concerned, so I stick with it. Guess it all depends on how insane you are much you...

    Passenger headlight wont go down... High beams randomly shut off

    With most electrical troubleshooting, it's worth checking all the grounds in the system. Do you have access to the TEWD for the car? If you understand how to follow diagrams, the answer to your questions is likely found in there. :) That said, I know enough about wiring and electricity to get...

    Taillight kill switch....Ghost car

    Try driving your Supra down I-15 in Utah sometime. I can see your point, but I can see his point as well. In all my trips through Utah on my way to Vegas/Phoenix, I would be willing to bet I've been pulled over by the majority of highway patrolmen that I've seen. Two of the I've-lost-count times...

    H&R + koni yellow = dump

    The lack of travel is my ONLY complaint about my coilovers. It's not hard to get wheels off the ground in my car on some of the bumps and dips in the road around here... Is there a way to fix the travel of the suspension while retaining a low ride height?

    Masons/freemasons, nutters in general?

    You know, in a weird sort of way... I almost hope you're right. That might mean that this bloody nose is hopefully on it's way out...

    What Grinds Your Gears?

    On your first point, I think this is more discourteous than dangerous (tailgating, running lights and stop signs), but it could cause a safety issue in traffic. Utah... try it out sometime, I can almost promise you they're the worst drivers in America. Not worst as in rudeness, but just seem...

    wideband hooked up... is this normal?

    Ahh, I think I understand now... but my point still stands. Your car wouldn't boost as high due to the FCD settings, the car wasn't running as it should. That makes sense, we just were looking at the wrong culprit in your situation. :)

    Twin turbo 5vz-fe

    Actually, I seem to recall a VZ in a Mk3 that was for sale sometime last year. It may have been an earlier model, I thought it was a 3.0 v6. I agree with the sentiments on handling though, as much as I love I6 engines for their smoothness and power capability (plus, that sound...), they tend to...

    Gee, I couldn't imagine who would do anything along those lines. Must have a lot of time on their hands. :p Well, with a set of LED lights, quite a few I would think. :)

    Is it possible to convert my88 mk3 coupe to a sports roof ?

    I'm with him, but I think we're in the minority of people blessed enough to have both. :) Biggest thing, at least for me, is that driving with the targa off is enough to clear my head after a rough or stressful day at work. It just makes things all better by the time I get home. That is pretty...

    Supra 7M and 1jz VS SRT4 and Cobalt SS/SC with NOS and LS1 Camaro New Race added

    Dude, even with lots of miles and bits of dings, it's still an $8000 car pretty easily... nice score. Is it hot? And no, I don't mean the weather, that much is obvious. :p
