    Official SF thread

    agreed. And it is good for regional stuff, no one uses the regional forums here. But the "south" forum on SF has a lot fo traffic and news on local events. The rest of the site.... well... you know.

    Supra v. Firehawk.. bye bye Mr. V8 :)

    Hey guys, Took the supra up to a car show last weekend so had to run her about 50 miles on the highway. As we were staying with friends for the night I also had my wife and all our crap in the car. This black firehawk come up along side and starts revving his insanely loud engine. Engine...

    This Sucks!!! (rod-knock)

    I'm sorry if this offends.... but I wouldn't think you should go the route of engine swap if you have trouble keeping oil in your car on a motor that is known to be very prone to starvation problems. Again, no real flame intended, but I do think you should step back and think about whether that...

    Got a Larger oil filter on today

    I've used the stock yoter filter on all my supras, up till now... now I use the K&N one, mostly becuase it has that nut-type thing on the bottom that makes getting it on and off a buttload easier, since it is damn near impossible to get a normal oil filter wrench up to the nasty stock location

    True Hi-Speed wheel balancing: Anyone know where I can get this done in Hosuton?

    ok great, so where do I get that done in TX!! And as for checking everything else, I had NO problems with vibrations with my old wheels, so I wouldn't think this would be the problem, and the shocks are only a couple thousand miles old, I doubt they went out the same day I put new wheels...

    True Hi-Speed wheel balancing: Anyone know where I can get this done in Hosuton?

    Hey everyone, Well with the new rims and tires came some vibrations.... despite the dude that balancing them saying they are "perfectly" balanced and my use of hubcentric rings. The vibration is actaully pretty bad at high speeds, much worse than I've ever felt on a car. But I've never...

    Shameless Publicity: More Pics of New Rims

    Blocking Egr

    except EGR doens't function at WOT, so if you are detonating at cruise, you have much bigger problems that lack of an EGR... :icon_bigg It lowers combustion temps (less oxygen to burn the fuel), which lowers the NOx, but again doesn't do this at WOT, IIRC.
