    Welding a targa top shut

    Not only does it look cool going around a track with the top off, Im sure the cage you are putting in will more than make up for the chassis flex. I dont see any pros to welding it shut, lol.

    See! You CAN have fun in an N/A!

    H&R Springs on Bilstein Shocks...Loose Spring under no load

    My tokicos + B&G spring combo never had this problem. Had to compress the spring to get the shock all mounted up. Neither did stock, on either of my Supras

    See! You CAN have fun in an N/A!

    Its not. Trust me. I check my oil and coolant levels damn near every day. It only burns a little oil on start up due to bad valve stem seals. The car has never over heated, (under my ownership atleast) never spewed coolant, and has never shown signs of a BHG. Not even down on power (clearly...

    Differential whine. Backlash or wear problem?

    Both of the diffs I have had in my mk3 make some hum at 75. 4.3 open (218k miles on it) My brother couldn't hear it, but he doesn't notice the little things.. 3.9 LSD (130k miles) little bit less of a hum.

    What is your reference location when discussing left and right side?

    I agree with IJ. But what about the engine compartment? That would have to be from the front of the car looking back. No one says the exhaust is on the right side of the motor.

    Now that I think about it, that makes sense. Learn something new everyday.

    does anyone know where to get this piece off the block from? (pics!)

    Looks to me like one of the brackets on the lower intake

    Crank Pulley Bolt flew off !

    Im just saying, its easier to turn the motor over with the car in 5th than in 1st. Try doing what I said. With the engine off, 5th gear on a slight hill the car will roll. Turning the engine over. Granted, very slowly, but it will turn the engine 1st gear wont roll, and the engine obviously...

    Crank Pulley Bolt flew off !

    Put it in 1st! 5th is way easier to move than 1st. Next time you're on a steep hill, pull over and put the car in 5th (engine off obviously) and see if it will roll. I bet it will. Then try 1st and i bet it will hold the car.

    Stock N/A Supra top end

    Geared out with stock gears and stock tires. 6000 in 5th = 132 or so.

    BHG? can you confirm this?

    Wouldn't a better test (in his case) be a leak-down of the cooling system? Pressure is always going to bleed from the cylinders. It should never bleed from the cooling system, unless something is wrong.

    So tight that you have to warm up the engine before it will crank over.

    if not a blown headgasket...then what?

    No, thats just testing the coolant for combustion gasses. A leak down is pressurizing the cooling system (with a gauge of course) and watching to see if the gauge goes down at all. It shouldn't Or pressurizing the combustion chambers and watching to see how much the gauge goes down (it will...
