Haha, I totally missed that post Jay, sorry about that. My car never seemed to be running lean when it would fuel cut on me, was still reading solid low 12:1 AFR's... Thought it was just boost pressure that the MAP sensor felt was a good time to step in and stop the fun?

Not even sure why I want to know why you know that... ;)

My advice after doing a few of these over the years? Plan on spending approximately 20% over and beyond what you THINK the thing will need. That said, do now, what you don't want to do later on the side of the road or in a parking lot. In other words, if it's rubber, you'd be wise to replace it. ;)

Hazard? Can anyone enlighten me? I was always under the impression that if you dilute it until you can't tell it's there, it's effectively *not* there. Am I mistaken? As for distilled water, I curse ANYONE who runs tap water in a street car, it's just rude. You wouldn't believe how much rust...

If there's anything to take away from this thread, it's this right here^.

I hate you guys and your E85... I'm literally sharing a border with NEBRASKA and we (to my knowledge) don't have even ONE station with E85 at the pump. Nice numbers man, you'll have to update once you get the fueling issue figured out.

Sadly, his car is faster than mine until I get going about 50-60mph... gotta love light weight and aggressive gears! :)

Save some time if you just look at 0:57 in that video. ;)

Nothing simple about Astro van's either haha... I believe it was Poodles who posted a "how-to" on replacing the spark plugs on one of those, was quite hilarious. :D

Only times I've been pulled over because of my car are because of my lack of self control and restraint when driving them like they can be driven haha... Have yet to be pulled over just to talk about the thing, if that's what you're getting at.

I believe it. Exploring the idea of using a Renesis/6 speed in the 7 replica I plan on building in the future... don't need torque for something that weighs just over half a ton!

This was my solution... never liked automatics, they're always hunting for gears. :nono:

I'll keep it in mind gentlemen, it does sound like fun, and I'm bound to get bored of GT5 at some point. ;)

Yeah, just one that I've never ran into on a Supra or Miata, so I never needed one. Honestly, my entire tool kit could fit in a glovebox of a Mk3, and it's been MORE than enough to do 99% of the jobs I've done on other cars too. Just have a hard time spending the money that it costs for ONE...

Hadn't given it much thought, but that breakup you're describing could be fuel cut. It's not quite as violent as it is on a 7m, at first I thought it was just missing/breaking up...

I have one of these I picked up in CF/FG last year, and came to the conclusion the holes in them are probably pointless. Even if you were to cut holes into the radiator support, you still have your radiator right in the way. Not the fins, but the upper TANK of the radiator is right there... not...

I would think you'd have answered your own question sir, taking an exhaust from one car, trying to put it on another, and expecting it to bolt up? If it were from one generation Supra to another, I can see there being some hope of things just bolting together, but from one car make to another?:aigo:

You know, when even the guy who built ^ THAT tells you he'd prefer something simple, that might be a good time to listen. ;)

Cheap to buy =/= cheap to own. ;)

IJ, there's no leg humpers around here, perish the thought! :rolleyes: Welcome to the madhouse that is SM, you're in good company around here. :)
