    Does this sound like BS to you guys?

    Yeah...right! I have a bridge you may be interested in. C'mon man, wake-up! I'm sure it's owned by a little old lady who only drove it on sundays.

    Savage wide body

    I kinda like the 6 tip exhaust, but other then that I'm thinking this guy went overboard.

    LMAO!!! :yelrotflm Toyota doesn't exactly support us, unless you want to buy a new Toyota. I think they'll manage to stay afloat without me buying they're manual.

    exhaust to loud need help

    Trust me, you're by far not the first to install a glasspack upstream of your muffler. I've done it and yes, it will quiet things down but what it won't do is rid you of the annoying low rpm howl. The cat will create backpressure unless you buy an expensive hi-flow unit, and even then you're...

    developed rod knock on new motor

    Then maybe you ought to look it up for yourself, instead of relying on others input and then calling it BS. http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=EM&P=70 You got a tude.

    Cam degree + or -

    I've degreed in the cam for a small block v8 but not for a twin cam 6. But I plan on doing this to see what I can pick-up. Anyone who has tuned their engines by means of cam timing?

    Birds birds birds! (No, I don't mean the radiator kind)

    Driving up to Banff from Calgary doing about 90 in an XKE and a duck kamakazee'd on the top part of the windshield. Cracked the hell out of the windshield. Also, pegged some kind of small bird upon take-off at Camarillo airport. Bent the prop on a Cessna Turbo Skylane. McCauley propellers...

    Cam degree + or -

    A. I meant degree settings B. Fair enough. C. 1*..2*..3*...? D. Have you done this and know for sure? What I was seeking was an insightful reply from someone knowledgable on the subject. :icon_bigg

    Cam degree + or -

    I was reading another thread which brought up the subject of degree-ing in your cams and it got me thinking about : A. What is the factory setting on cam timing (intake and exhaust)? B. What are optimal settings (vs. stock)? C. Does anyone who has degreed in their cams remember how much...

    developed rod knock on new motor

    This sounds more like the problem to me. I think you may be barking up the wrong tree with the oil cooler theory. It's very common for machine shops that don't do alot of tight tolerence turbo motors (or are just plain sloppy), to not get the clearances correct. Usually they set-up the...

    Where to find steering wheel hub adaptor?

    I had this same problem. I used a Grant adapter for their wheel, and then fabricated an adapter out of 1/4" plate that I drilled to fit the grant adapter, then drilled to fit my (Britannia) steering wheel. It was a little bit of a pain to get it right but I've had it for two years, no...

    Suspension Techniques:: The Good - Bad - Ugly?

    I'm surprised nobody has touched on the fact that double wishbone suspension works better with a certain amount of body roll. I'm not negating the value of anti-sway bars, however, eliminate too much of the body roll (with double wishbone) and you'll have a car that doesn't handle nearly as...

    What is my Supra worth... I might sell it

    I wouldn't part it out just on principle. The right guy will step up for that car. You just gotta be patient (that's the hard part).
