    launching Rpm's?

    White smoke not BHG?

    hmmm...how's your brake master cylinder? When the master cylinder went out on my NA, it was puffing HUGE clouds of thick white smoke when you would push the brake pedal...sometimes just by itself though...Interesting, brake fluid burns white, just like coolant...the smell is totally different...

    Waterfall sound behind dash...

    Lol, oil dripping... I don't think it really has anything to do with Toyota's quality of products...I think that it is more of an age/owner/cheap aftermarket parts on a very precision car kinda thing...It seems like this car likes everything to be in perfect balance, and if everything isn't...
