    1989 supra 50,000 original miles for sale, my area

    Look at it this way: A low mileage car that old is likely that low of mileage for one of two reasons... it either never got driven, and it's seals are all gone by now, or it's because it spent a lot of time broken. Either way, lot of work to be done, although I'm sure cosmetically it is in good...

    God I hate People

    Look at some of their other videos. VW fans... anyone wanna pitch in to buy a Mk1 GTI to give the same treatment to? Bet it wouldn't hold up half as good as their Supra...

    weekly car debate thread.

    Just for the sheer stupidity of a 9k redline, the S2K in my book. Plus, Honda subframes aren't famous for breaking (looking at you, Z3...). Not familiar with this Z4M you speak of... it have the S54 from last generation's M3? If so... damn.

    Looks like it to me, the strut towers are farther back, like in the Mk2... Still, poor air filter, that thing is fun sized!

    National Event: 2011 Supras In Vegas

    Lot of fun man... lot of fun. ;) Sheesh, that snuck up on us. Much as I'd like to join, the money I'm saving on not going to SILV (canceled or otherwise), that money will be going to the car for next year. :D

    Driving unlawfully. How old are you?

    As for the tracking in a lane, I think it's all about perspective... I had to drive the shop truck out to the local airport the other day, and it is a LOT more difficult to drive that thing than it is my car. I normally whine and get irritated when people drive clearly WELL below the limits of...

    Question about traction

    Do 91 C4's even have traction control? I know my SS had a spot for a button for it, but whoever ordered/bought the car originally didn't check that box haha...

    messed my car up this morning.....

    Sorry to hear man... as much of a dog lover I am (seriously, the more people I meet, the more I like dogs haha), I wouldn't think twice about running one over if it was either the dog or my car. Not trying to criticize, but not only are cars a lot more expensive, it's irresponsible to let your...

    ProSport Evo Gauge install then 1J Crank Pulley destruction

    Liking the gauge, at first I thought it was a combination oil pressure(inner digital read)/wideband (outer ring), looks good man! As for the crank pulley, that was a fast replacement, did you already have it waiting for just such an occasion?

    Must be Summer in the Northern Hemisphere

    Eh, mine is leaking a bit of power steering fluid I suspect, but that's the last 7m remnants on my car, so I'm not surprised. 20+ years without a refresh or anything... I drive mine all year though, so has nothing to do with summer in my case. ;) Although strangely, I found a few small allen...

    Where can I find new or restore windshield molding and trim?

    Sadly, I'm considering buying a set, just to have a set, given the inevitable "expiration of availability" that the windshield and hatch trim that is to eventually come...

    Broken Heater Union Banjo Bolts

    IJ, I'm used to hearing odd things come out of your rambling mouth, but you got me with this one... As for the banjo fitting, I almost found myself in a similar position with my 2nd 7M. Stupid PO must have ran tap water for 20 years in that thing...

    Who offers carbon fiber hatches for mkiii's?

    CF hatch and Lexan for the glass (not everybody lives where a heated rear window is useful Kai, I used to never see temps cold enough for frost/snow), you'd drop what, about 40-50lbs? Only reason I decided against it was because of WHERE the weight was coming off the car. Off the front, take all...

    Clamps and Vacuum Lines?

    Whatever you do, don't buy your T-bolt clamps at Vatozone. They're made of a pretty soft metal, I ended up stripping out a few of them before they would clamp hard enough to keep the pipes on, sadly. An alternative, would be to get whatever t-bolt clamps you find, then use either 2-3 nuts...
