    Any 2 Wheel Lovers on the forums

    Got a ninja 500 last winter. I've only put ~1200 miles in it so I'm still a complete rookie. The bike speed is fun, but I'm such a Nancy I find the supra much more comfortable and plenty fast. A 45 minute commute isn't fun in full gear in 100 degrees. Eventually id like a faster 600-750, but...

    Upgrading Factory Alarm

    Whoa. A relatively new poster who knows how to read a wiring diagram, understands and follows basic advice and is thankful? This must be a trick. This doesn't actually happen... does it? Welcome and please continue to post. :)

    88 Blue Turbo restoration/upgrade story

    That's a lofty goal. I doubt you'll ever get there, but it'll be fun to watch you try! Complete guesses here, but I'd think you'd need some aero mods (maybe just a good lowering and an efficient lip?) and ~700-800 bhp? I'd be ecstatic to reach 180mph. One of my ultimate goals is to do some sort...

    Absolutely incredible! Glad to see updates and can't wait to see the finished product. I think you'll have the most wanted mk3 on the forums. :)

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    No pictures, but hopefully a decent story will suffice. I dont normally get attention from other enthusiasts on the road and get encouraged to "race". Mostly because there are few sports cars around here. On my way home from work today in the Supra a redneck pulls up beside me in a late 90's...

    Man Sold Supra, Wife Cooks the money - A MUST READ

    If the previous owner's money handling abilities are anything like his car maintenance and taste, then I vote for a rough, beat up NA mkiv. Probably an auto with an obnoxious exhaust and dumbass bodykit.

    is there a way to make the stock cooler a constant

    Given the simplicity of the question asked I think the best response to this is simply: NO. A good "constant" oil cooler set-up is no small mod and can be disastrous if half assed.

    Name My Rear End

    Why do you say non-lsd? I thought all turbo models had LSD. there is an axle code in your data tag on the drivers door. That will tell you what it originally was. Can also count rotations... Sent from my ADR6350 using Tapatalk 2

    Suggestions on down pipes, and exhaust in general

    Dress? How much is the freakin dress? If your girl is whining about not having a dress the same price as a good exhaust.... I certainly couldn't keep up with that, lol Sent from my ADR6350 using Tapatalk 2

    Occasional White Smoke from exhaust on overrun after oil change. Help

    Hahahaha. This guy. Hahaha. Op: too much oil will not cause that. That looks like maybe simply exhaust residue (with maybe some oil mixed in) with condensation being spat out on startup. Sent from my ADR6350 using Tapatalk 2

    Driveshaft Carrier Bearing Radial play?

    Eh, I don't really notice it, but I do find it hard sometimes to shift smoothly. Thus far, I've just attributed that to my own lack of shifting ability, lol Sent from my ADR6350 using Tapatalk 2

    Mayhem Festival 2012 anyone?

    I didn't go this year, but I've been to it a few times. Actually saw slipknot a couple years back and I think it was the mayhem tour. Anyways, yeah slipknot is very good live. Love joey. Crazy good drummer. Haven't been to many shows lately. Working 8-5 and living an hour from most the venues...

    Driveshaft Carrier Bearing Radial play?

    Hello gents. My 90 with stock driveshaft has MAJOR radial play (think up and down as you lay under the car). The play is at least 0.25 inch, maybe up to 0.75 inch. I'm not sure if this is normal or not. My initial thought was it means that the bearing is absolutely toast, but I'm unsure. My...

    Another Nutjob... Mass shooting in Colorado

    News reports said he had a tactical bulletproof vest, "tactical" pants (not sure if that means armored or just had magazine holders or what), throat protector, gas mask, groin protector, an AR-15, 2 40 cal Glocks and a shotgun. Oh, and the tear gas that started it all. To top it off, his...

    Another Nutjob... Mass shooting in Colorado

    Carry laws in Colorado are pretty good, imo. Nothing would have stopped anyone with a permit from carrying. Perfectly legal. They were talking about it on the radio and made some good points regarding that possibility. Sounds like there was enough smoke/gas that not many would have even been...

    Update pictures. Turbo installed, but haven't started her back up yet. Compression test from a month ago Polished the roof. Eliminated the clear coat fade with the Mother's powerball. I'd HIGHLY recommend that or a Porter Cable Random Orbital buffer for polishing work. Made it nice and easy...

    The Mistress

    Well that would explain it. I'm in Colorado so we get well below freezing every winter many, many days. Last year I woke up to a drive to work @-16F. Summers are 105F and winters are -10F. You guys think leather would hold up better? OEM Toyota boot? Grim (Dave, I think right?) you must have...

    The Mistress

    Damn, what I have now is from empera, but the vinyl cracked at the base of all four triangles, like right on the middle of the fabric, not the seam. Maybe ill just order another. It did last 4 years after all... Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk 2
