    What do you guys think?

    Just gonna say that I find it funny that Black Cat replied to Blackdawg's thread. :rofl: Dunno why I find that so amusing, just is for some reason...

    First tool set

    I second this. Almost couldn't get my fill plug off the diff of a Miata one time after I had nearly stripped the bolt, AFTER I had already drained it. There's another free lesson for ya. ;) Honestly, I think I could tear a Supra down into it's core components with an 8, 10, 12, 13 (alternator)...

    2jzge-T reliability???

    Good luck finding someone who's actually "driving" their na-t swaps. ;) Might check Club Lexus out for this one. Never been over there myself, but they probably have more people who have done this sort of thing over there.

    The MkIII Photo Dictionary! Lets do it

    Sadly, seems that way. I'd do it if I were a little more experienced... I'm not going to tear apart a perfectly good working car though.

    Carbon fiber feeler

    Only problem I see with making brake ducts is that everybody's offsets would be a bit different. Would suck to order a nicely made part and have to cut into it to keep the front half of the inside part of the wheel from hitting it... I also think a JZ (1 or 2, 1 in my case) spark plug valley...

    This outta be good... WHAT DEFINES A RICER?!?!?!?!?!

    ^ How about that... I don't know about the rest of you, but if I were driving a Prius v0.9, I don't think I'd be trying to draw any attention to myself.

    Naked Climate Control Buttons

    Looks kinda cool, does it burn your retinas at night though? I tend to prefer to have as little light as possible in my cabin at night, so my eyes can focus on the road. Sadly, we don't have much ambient or street light around these parts...

    Break out the custom race dashboards

    I drove a C5 Vette I was going to trade my first Miata in on (didn't happen though) and the HUD on that thing was awesome. Perhaps to distract you from the fact that everything else in the interior came from the Grand Am. :nono: Such a strange mix, but such a clean car, well done man. :)

    Suggestions on air jacks

    Gimme a sec, I'll see if I can find the current thing in "O'reiley's" part list... Seems they don't have the same part anymore, but there are a few that are similar: http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/detail/ACD9/34700.oap?pt=N0768&ppt=C0373...

    4.30 Differential in a 1jz swapped mk3??

    Never thought about the math that way, but at 75mph, my car (3.73, stock-ish height tires) cruises at about 2850. According to your proposed math, you'd be turning around 3285 rpm with the 4.30 diff. Seems about right... Then again, my Mk2 (w58, 4.30, stock height tires) cruises at about 3700 at...

    Exhaust Muffler Opinion

    We all have them man. Apparently it's made me a trolling assclown though. Haven't been called that one before. :biglaugh: Poodles makes a good point here man, I didn't bother to look through your profile. If you're n/a, I wouldn't put a muffler of that style on there. You really don't stand to...

    why? help me ?

    Disconnect your exhaust at the end of the downpipe, you'll hear it for sure then. ;)

    You know you're a Supra owner when...

    That's awesome man. I've always been one to keep extra oil and coolant in my car, just out of habit, rather than necessity, but I can't say I've ever known anyone carry fluids in *their* car for *my* sake. :p You know you're a Supra owner when you're not afraid to lick your finger if the...

    My other Toyota- '86 MR2

    :rofl: That's been a while now... You know, I always thought I might buy one of these some day, so in preparation, I bought a nose emblem for an AW11 a couple years back. Still have it, just in case. :)

    Our chickens.

    That's awesome man, almost choked on a Swedish Fish, but that's awesome. Kinda makes me miss the parakeet or whatever kind of little bird we used to have when I was younger. It would literally ride around on my shoulders or on top of my head all the time!

    Look what I found!

    That game was hard enough to play on Genesis, I can't imagine playing it on the GG. Saturn? There's one you don't hear of too often... Suggestion: How about we make this the official "old school (or not current gen anyway) video game" thread? Post up pics of neat stuff you have? Anyone else...

    My 1988 Celica GTS.... "Square One"

    Looks good man, I almost picked up an ST165 a couple months back, but someone bought it out from under me.

    removing the sound deadner stuff

    Careful welding around that stuff, buddy of mine found out the hard way with his old Z31 that some of that sound deadener stuff is flammable. ;)

    Exhaust Muffler Opinion

    Was referring to the OP sir, sorry for the confusion. I can't comment on the choice of exhaust as I can't say I've ever heard one, but HPF as a vendor is a good choice.
