    MkIII Supra pictures!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    There's always google too... but we have a photography section on here too. Might also check the random picture threads, although you'll find lots of NSFW and not-car related things (hence the "random"), so careful where you browse. ;)

    Should I jump on this? 91 targa turbo, about 80k original miles

    IIRC, the valve cover gaskets are pretty cheap at Toyota, can't go wrong there for gaskets. :) What's a valve cover kit?

    10 reason MK3 Supras are garbage

    Yeah, what he said... Goggles will make it hard to see what you can't un-see if you Google felching. ;) Hmm, beyond the relatively simple mechanical stuff involved with these cars, I'm pretty clueless. I can drive them pretty well, for what that's worth. :)

    lets talk shift knobs

    So does changing an "i" to an "a"... Err... really? Surely you jest? I mean, to each their own, but that thing looks like a rabid chihuahua... Statements like this make me wonder if Ian wasn't on the right track initially... As for mine, my car came with a Greddy knob of some sort, just...

    Daily drivers!

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    High five to you sir, plan on putting sound deadening back in, or is this a track build? Welcome aboard. Couple ways of attaching pictures, if you click the "go advanced button below the 'quick reply' box, you should be able to find it. Alternatively, you can put html tags of in your post...

    Car in storage for 2 1/2 years.

    I figure if it worked for a powerful 2j, it should work just fine on a stock 6m, thanks Jdub. Oh, and after looking into Xylene as a fuel additive a bit, I see that it can eat rubber bits, so I think I'll settle for water-meth if I can't buy some sort of race fuel locally. :)

    7M-GTE powered 1977 Celica Liftback, kicking ass

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Thanks guys! Believe it or not, it's actually blue. It's a Dupont single stage paint called "black sapphire metallic". Some angles/lights it appears purple, some sparkly blue, others (mostly night time) it looks quite black. I really dig it, even if it hasn't held up all that great. Get what...

    Pre 89 Front End with 89+ Turns?

    You mean like how the 89+ bumper does? ;) Just kidding man, I see where you're going with the idea. Give it a go in photoshop, see if you like the look, unless you have the parts to make it happen, then mock it up, see how it looks, maybe picture it in your head. Could mock up the grille with...

    Tell me if this is BS

    Flat hose tells me you have a vacuum of some sort in the system, that's the only time I've ever seen a flat hose, is when a buddy of mine was helping me fill the Mk2 with fresh coolant after the rad swap. Had a neat tool that uses compressed air to suck the air out of the system from the...

    10 reason MK3 Supras are garbage

    All of the rest. ;) Hey, even NA's blow head gaskets, but it's really not that uncommon of a failure point for a vehicle. I've seen BHG's on pretty much anything. About the only thing I haven't seen a BHG on is a rotory. :p

    92' Turbo Supra Suggestions

    Seems they were nice enough to at least leave a note, right? Oh, and from my experience with that EXACT type of collision (what appears to be a truck backing into you) will cost anywhere from $1200-1500, those power/heated mirrors weren't cheap in 2006, and I doubt they've gotten any cheaper...

    Daily drivers!

    I take it you guys don't like the right sides of the cars? :p That Barracuda ain't half bad, gotta say. I'm most certainly not a Mopar guy (Chevy for the motivation, Ford for the style), but those are nice. :) A girl driving anything cool man... definitely alright by me. :D As for your car...

    Car in storage for 2 1/2 years.

    My Mk2 has been in pretty similar conditions for the last couple years. It's been garaged 98% of the time, and there is VERY little humidity here. However, the garages it has been in get down to around 45-50° F. Still a problem if the gas in it has been there for at least a year now? I fill up...

    Pre 89 Front End with 89+ Turns?

    Personally, I like the way the pre-89 stuff looks as is. Ever seen one coming at you with just the running lights on? They're so wide, it looks rather menacing. The 89+ turn signals, they look good on an 89+ bumper. On a pre-89, I think you'd have a HUGE gap between the lights. Hard to say for...

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    I... washed... my... car... For those of you who don't know me, this does NOT happen often, considering the road conditions around here, and climate. If I wanted to drive a clean car daily, I'd have to wash the damned thing every time I got home. :p
