    finished my sway bar end links do you like?

    I'm assuming the bushings are what went away on them? Do you remember what material the bushings were constructed of? It would be a starting point as far as choosing correct material for longer wear.

    cut springs

    No offense, but that's bullshit. I use a spring compressor kit all the time (4 u bolts, 4 coil clamps and 2 huge bolts and nuts) and as long as you're not an idiot, it's perfectly safe. If I ran to a shop everytime I needed something done..... I don't mean to sound like an asshole but, if...

    Would love to see a Supra dash like this -->

    It's a little to Ralph Lauren lookin' for me. Looks like it oughta be in some cowboy/pimp pick-up truck, maybe with bullhorns mounted on the hood. Where are the stirups?:sarcasm: :3d_frown: .

    Price check on a supra.

    Kelly Blue Book is not going come close to reality on what anyone would sell a nice Supra for. What you need to get your hands on, is a copy of the Cars of Particular Interest Price Guide. If you know someone who deals in classic cars, ask them to look it up for you. I don't think you...

    Is there a demand for custom Fiberglass interior parts?

    I would be willing to bet the farm, that if you were to make the "B" pillar trim in carbon fiber, you'd sell em as fast as you could make them (stock is plastic and would be easy to duplicate in CF).

    Supra involved in mindless prank :/ (VIDEO!!)

    That's because he never ran in to me (or someone like me). As God as my witness, I would have beat the fuckin' snot out of him. Wouldn't want to do it.... but I feel I'd owe it to him.::salute:: .

    Whats your worst mileage for a tank?

    Big top feed injectors, 2 fuel pumps, etc....I burned up about 5 gallons of VP in 4 or 5 passes. Figure an equal number of burnouts, driving to the pit area, and the staging area, but that's alot of expensive gas. I don't know exactly what that was in mpg.

    ShineAutoProject Rear Diffuser

    Bro....it's underneath the car. How could that "totally kill the look of the Mk3"? As far as it looking stupid...it's like Forrest Gump said, "stupid is as stupid does". Sounds like someone's having a bad day. :icon_bigg

    ShineAutoProject Rear Diffuser

    Won't you need a front splitter to go with that diffuser? That should be easy compared to this thing. Other than it looking cool, does anyone have any idea on it's effect? Just wondering...

    Fan shrouds by year?

    I think the aux fan is just for the a/c condenser. I dumped both when I went to dual electrics.

    Hand polished throttle body (PICS)

    I have a teenage kid and I walk the line between doing too much, and not enough. I think there has got to be a happy medium somewhere between parents that give their kids MBZ's, and parents like mine who gave me nothing. It made me self-reliant and tough, but it's a hard way to come up...

    Finaly a true mechanic!! very suprising response.

    Like the Midas shop you described, most repair facilities have a policy of not working on "highly modified cars". I know, because I worked as a mechanic for a few independent garages when I was younger. In on shop in particular, I used to get in trouble all the time for taking in "weird...

    What is the hook thing for?

    Hey Shaeff, I'm going to go ahead and venture a guess that your interior is (coincidentally) gray...:sarcasm:

    OEM Carbon Kevlar Hood Ebay...

    And if you look at the 3rd big picture closely (turn your laptop or monitor sideways) you'll see that the carbon fiber fabric is wavy on the left side. Way worse than the seam, if you ask me.

    What is the hook thing for?

    I see I'm not the only one who ever unsuccessfully did experimental surgery on a retractor. Just a thought but...I wonder if an upholstery shop or someone like that could take a new set of gray belts (retractors and all, I guess) and die them. I admit it sounds a bit desperate...but...
