    You guys are gonna let this die, huh? :( Cyrus, where you at? You've gotta have some good auto-x pics...

    Electric car

    Have you seen the print ads for those? I feel sorry for the guy who has to write those. Compared the Leaf's percentage of available torque at 1000rpm (100%) to a German sport sedan (~30%), something else, and a 'rugged v8 pickup truck' (~40%). What the ad doesn't mention is that said pickup...

    Possible MKIII 2JZGTE Build??

    As the other guys have already pointed out, 3k isn't gonna happen. There are always little things here and there that you're gonna need, things you're gonna need to fabricate, and things that are either going to be broken or break. Figure I bought my car for 5k (because I'm an idiot who sorely...

    Well, some asshole put me out of the Supra game....

    Steve, I believe the general grey import rule here in the US is 30 years, unlike Canada's 20 year rule. I wish it were 20 year here, not too many 30 year old JDM cars in my price range, you know? However, here in Wyoming I'm sure I could pull it off pretty easily, they're rather lax here on...

    Electric car

    Dude, it's older than any member of this forum that I'm aware of, who cares if it's not perfect? Post up some pictures already! :D

    Well, some asshole put me out of the Supra game....

    This. I had my car painted and about a month or so later, stupid shed display at Home Depot flys into my car because the assholes that assemble the things don't understand the very basic nature of wind in Wyoming... ~$2000+ in damages, and they have yet to do anything about it. Anyway, at least...

    Answer the question with a question (now NWS, with goats!)

    Why is he Spongebob SQUAREpants? Had the creators of the show never seen a round sponge???

    Sensor questions

    You can get rid of the sensor for your stock boost gauge, but it will throw a code of some sort, although I forget which one specifically. Does it help to have that gauge hooked up? I really don't think so, it's slow to respond to input and always seemed about 2psi lower than what I'm really...

    Can't get hatch open

    I read recently on here that taking a dremel and grinding away a bit of the plastic nub that holds the gas door closed away will let it open easier, as the nub does not retract as far as it should with a loose cable. Alternatively, this also sounds like a feasible idea, I may have to give this...

    So...thinking of buying another supra

    Just gotta find the right girl. My old lady doesn't mind driving around if need be. I think my style of attacking corners is rubbing off on her a bit too. :)

    HID Help

    Honestly $800 isn't all that bad for a bolt in HID retrofit I'd say, considering what HID's went for 8-10 years ago... Question is, are these 6054's something that you would recommend? This is one area I don't have a whole lot of experience with.

    Leaving Supras

    Man... I gotta say, this kinda makes me a bit sad. I'm in no position to pick up another Supra any time soon, I'm not even done with either of the current ones yet. I also vote on trying to keep the car whole, you've put too much time into it to tear it all apart again... 5k+ really shouldn't...

    Adrenaline Motorsports ROBBED and BURNED to the ground - PLEASE READ!!!

    Sorry to see this happen to anybody, much less someone in the Supra community... If I were local, I'd be there in a heartbeat to help. I may not be that bright, but I can lift heavy things! Meh... not even my usual sense of humor is helping here. :( You might do well to talk to the local Home...

    MK5 Supra Summer Design Project

    Very nice, very nice... If I had even the slightest bit of criticism about this latest render, it's that I think you've been looking at newer Camaros and their pointed noses a bit too much. :p Seriously though, that's so minor you shouldn't even worry about it, I like it man, very well done.

    Coilover feedback needed

    Zankoku is also selling coilovers for our cars, check the Misc Vendors section. I'm halfway tempted myself, just to see the difference between theirs and the Megans.
