    Where do I hoist a short block with tranny at being in the car still?

    I've done this method just a little more dangerously, and used one bolt on Driver's side between 5-6, and the other on the other side between 1-2.....But JDub always has a smarter way than me. I wouldn't have posted this, but you may only have 2 good holes left. I second that earlier...

    ForcedTorque's 3E5 has Arrived!!!!!

    The car is still running. And yes, hopefully I will get to drive it this weekend. I'm gonna get some new struts after I get paid. But, I still won't have the Walbro in or have it tuned, so I doubt I will see the full potential of the turbo. Maybe a little boosting, but not much on the stock fuel...

    What in the hell have I gotten myself into?

    I thought that deal had fallen apart. Those seats look really good, but could use a good cleaning.

    Should I Buy An MK3?

    I started this go around with this car: But I had a good motor, trans, interior to go into it, PLUS a whole lot of love. The question is not can it be rebuilt, and made into a nice car again. Rather, it is do you have the love, the know how, and the money to get it there?That's almost...

    I forgot my camera died after just a couple of pictures. I can get better pics from my brother. Here are the two worth posting i have, and they don't really capture the spirit too well.

    ForcedTorque's 3E5 has Arrived!!!!!

    Yes, We went to Bellingrath Wednesday night. Their Christmas lights are really nice. The car is cranking every time I have tried for the last two days. I can't wait til I get time to swap the springs in, and get a chance to actually drive it a little. But, then I will also need to put my...

    ForcedTorque's 3E5 has Arrived!!!!!

    Yes the car turned around under it's own power........as in running! All I did was turn the car around tho. I have removed the springs from my parts car, and they can be seen in the photo sitting by the car with the spring compressor. I've been pretty sick, so progress is slow there. I removed...

    ForcedTorque's 3E5 has Arrived!!!!!

    Jmoney is money here! Somebody hasn't been watching this whole thread have they? I have the sides too, that's why the front mud flap is missing. The side won't hold itself on like the rear will for a picture. I'm considering selling the Bomex stuff, but haven't really made my mind up yet.

    I PUT A BUMPER ON A BIG SINGLE MKIV!!!!

    Does Bill know we now have a MKIV section. Tell him to get off that lame ass site and get over here to stay! Oh yeah! There's no way in hell I would have ever been able to do that with my old Supe against his car. Very impressive! I knew you would take good care of it.

    Got a new DigiCam so took some pics

    Very Nice! One more example of why I should change my mind on the white cars. I hate a white car, but your car doesn't quite fit in the same class as most white Supras. The paint looks even better than the white car I sold JmoneyDTB, and it IS Nice. James came by my house last night in it, with...

    MK2 vs. MK3

    I've owned and loved both myself. Both cars can be fun depending on your past. If you are used to driving a beater, an MKII is a fun car to drive. I used to love how I could get that car sideways, and then whip it right back into control on a dime, never worrying about losing it. But I also...

    Am I a ricer?

    I know you only started this thread because I told you the chrome strips might get called ricey after your small sample. Now that I have seen the whole car, I think the moldings look great. But yes, all that work, and still bicycle tires all around IS ricey!
