    A few shots of the Supra!

    I spent a good 6 hours washing, claying, polishing, and waxing the car so I decided to take a few pictures before it all gets ruined driving to work tomorrow. It was all done by hand and the paint isn't so great so it still doesn't look that good, and a lot of stuff is off the car for...

    ma supra got destroyed

    Something very similar happened to me once, the passenger can't be a witness and sadly since you were turning left chances are you'll be at fault even if you did have a green arrow :( Unless the other party admits to having a red light.

    RS Fujimoto 1.5JZ JZA70 Build thread

    If you dont mind me asking, what kind of offsets/widths are your wheels? I'm looking at some +4 offset wheels and hope they won't stick out quite as much as yours :)

    Bearings anyone?

    I went through this with my build, I bought a good number of the bearings they had left in the US/Canada and they had to get some shipped from japan :( The supply is drying up since Toyota doesn't keep them stocked here because not too many people buy them

    The Guitar Thread.

    Nah, blocking it off would be taking away the nice things about it haha. The sacrifice in tone and sustain/annoying string changes having a floyd AND not being able to do little whammy bar tricks wouldn't make much sense :)

    The Guitar Thread.

    I play guitar quite a lot, I still use the first guitar and amp I ever bought though haha. I've got an early 90s Ibanez RG570 and a Line 6 30 watt amp that randomly turns effects on and off :( At least for what I play, the floyd isn't really worth it. It's fun to mess with sometimes but I...

    Oil pump driveshaft retainer broken

    That ring broke on my shaft. I *think* it's what caused my rod knock but it could have broken during the engine teardown or something....

    1996 Mystic Cobra mini-build

    Good choice on getting a stock one, and unique color :D Too bad the Supra's going, but it's a nice replacement :)

    Got rain water in my Supra, should i remove the carpet?

    Definitely remove it and make sure everything is dry, it's worth the time. Make sure the wiring and all bare metal is dry too. Plus you can do a real thorough cleaning while everything is out :)

    Wrecked my Sup tonight - my bad :(

    :) looks all better now! I think maybe if one of the white clip-on tabs shifted on your molding it could be offset enough to cause the molding to bunch up like that. Was the molding area hit during the accident? When they reattached the clip they might not have aligned it quite right.

    Does White look right?

    Chrome looks great, I'd keep it that way :)

    AFM with atmospheric BOV...is this bad to do?

    I've heard of it stalling too but mine has never stalled and I've run it with an atmospheric BOV from day 1. I don't doubt it goes rich but it doesn't seem to have too much of an effect =\
