I'm tired. So, after talking with 1986.5supra_kid for quite awhile and showing him what I was doing to my car, I started realizing why it's taking so long to finish my project. I keep diving into useless detail. Plus, it kinda sucked to not have a Supra to bring to sunday's supra meet, lol. And...

LOL I kinda figured that. Sounds good. I expect your next update to be - "shopping for new tires today."

LOL! That's how you know it's a MkIII supra meet- NO mkIII owner has a working mkIII !!! Actually there were only two mkIII's at this meet(it was mainly an 82-85 celica/supra meet), and they had left before the photo op. Mine is the black MR2.

So...once your tires were warm....what was your 1/4 mile time?

Today i talked about my Supra a little bit, but mostly about my MR2, at the Celica Supra meet.

What springs are you running? It sits like Intrax springs. Also, I see you swapped out the front lip for a aftermarket spoiler- you still have the oem piece? I like your change in wheels as well.

333,000 That's when I retired it to the garage for the full restoration. I haven't put any miles on it in over a year and a half now, and it'll be at least 6 more months till I can.

Will be there.

True, but the heater core valve would be on the opposite side of the engine, and the PPS would be at the front of the engine. The wires for the reverse lights would be red and yellow, at least on the '88 they are. The birdcage doesn't mean the rad is full, it means the resevoir is low Ebrake...

How exactly did you cast new turn signal inserts?? Do you have any pics of the process?

Dang- You've almost caught up to me!

It looks like one of the two plugs that connects to the transmission. I think it's the abs sensor plug.

Well, today was MR2 day, instead of Supra day. I tried changing out my strut rod bushings for poly's, and found that both rods, and both subframe brackets were complete rust. I'm lucky they didn't fail on me while driving. So I went down to the Pull-a-part lot this afternoon, and grabbed two...

So, what were you working on, that made it fail? An obvious question- but did you check the EFI fuse? PS- Is the title of this thread supposed to be Heart TRANSPLANT, or Transport?

False alarm- I hit the Pull-a-part yard today and scored two complete front strutrod assemblies for $27. Already installed them. The bushings in them looked almost brand new. So sad how badly rust claims the suspension parts on an Ohio car vs. the GA cars.

Ok, I do NOT want to be one of these guys that ditches at the last second, but I'm 50/50 as to whether or not I can make it. NOT because I had something come up, but rather mechanical issues. Went to replace the front strut rod bushings with poly's yesterday, and when I finally got the rusted...

He mentioned twice in his post that he hasn't.

Alrighty then. Post pics of the mod. I'd like to see it, only seen it done once.

Looks like they're trying a twist on the Kaminari wing...
