Doat, the HKS Sport exhaust sounds great, and has a nice, low profile. One of my favorites among the subtle setups. Another option would be to run a 3" back to a stock muffler, and dump it right before the muffler... My title said the car had something like 198k on it, but the odometer says...

Sounds to me like it may be draining the battery. Do you have a way of testing the voltage? Might be a good place to start, would certainly suck to forget that switch and end up stranded somewhere... Also, wouldn't it be great if modified cars came with "Previous Owners Manuals"? :p You...

To address Jordan's points here... -I'm going to take the aluminum bumper out of my LS400 (it is a donor for the Chevy anyway, will be leftover), and use it in the Supra. Weight savings by replacing with lighter, yet equally strong parts. ;) -Stock exhaust is quite heavy. Get something like...

Just a couple tips from my experiences: -For the license plate rattle, put rubber washers behind the plate and the body, should minimize rattle there. -To prevent easy theft, you have a few options, the more implemented, the better. 1.) What you can't see/hear, you don't want. 2.) Bolt down...

I can see that. Stupid money and my lack of it sometimes. :p Would LOVE a set of magnesium wheels that would be wide enough for the widebody...

I have a set of Megan coilovers for sale if you poke around the FS section... ;)

You know, I would gladly take those off your hands, to save you the trouble of having to load that up for moving it... :p

Well meow, don't let me stop you if you have access to a lift, by all means, use it! Oh, and I see what you're doing here. ;)

Another thing that makes me wonder, my car made its peak power at redline. This was with the stock twins, but only at 12ish psi. Kinda makes me wonder then, with higher pressure, if the power would peak out sooner. I'm running a boost controller now, and it hits about a 17psi spike before...

Just saying, if people don't think there is anything special about it, nobody will be interested in your car. ;) That's how I like my cars anyway... Edit: Nothing at all wrong with cops, but they're rarely a deterrent to many thieves, for what that is worth. I have one literally living 100'...

Thanks Mike. Nothing I have to be concerned with now, but the girlfriend is wanting a MkIV as her next car, so it may come up eventually. I get the feeling that it would depend on the paint on the car really... I can see the new style looking great on the IJM, and white cars, but the old style...

Haha, pretty easy actually: 1 box of Kraft sprials 2 decent size table spoons of Country Crock 7 tablespoons of 2% milk Cook the macaroni (takes about 7 minutes), then drain the water, but do not rinse. Add the butter, stirring it in slowly. Your macaroni will turn a slightly golden...

At first, I was thinking, that seems a bit excessive, wonder what brought that on? Then I watched the second video on that live leak link. No surprise there... :nono:

Heh, not bad man. :) Give it another few years and a song like that would have you arrested. Happened in Russia not too long ago actually...

http://xkcd.com/1110/ There have been a handful of large scale xkcd comics over the years (Money and 1000 come to mind), but this one takes the cake. Link above since the comic doesn't "work" anywhere other than on the site as far as I know. Trust me, this is pretty awesome, especially if...

Glad you got it figured out. One more reason to never let the fuel level get below 1/4 tank if you can avoid it. :) Edit: When I read "Good news!" at the beginning of your post, I read it in James May's voice. It has been FAR too long since Top Gear UK has been on...

Never really saw this thread until now. Cool car, the dash (and I'm guessing the engine too) seem to be quite similar to what would have been put in a 2nd generation Celica or Mk1 Supra. Cool stuff, the 18r was a great motor, had some nice tuning options, and racing history. Bit underpowered for...

Just to contribute to the MkIV section so it has some activity, can anyone post a picture of the difference? I believe the 97-98 lights had a dark gray background behind the lights, correct? Not sure what the earlier ones looked like...

Sounds like fun. Was the M5x (I don't know my BMW's as well as my Toyotas) blown or something? I hear great things about the E36 engines. Well, the Euro spec ones anyway. As per usual, our piss water gasoline kinda neutered the car back then... Anyway, I don't believe I got your PM, if you were...

I popped mine on using my weight and the floor mat on the passenger side. Pressed the ball end into the floor mat. Worked pretty well. :)
