    Car in storage for 2 1/2 years.

    My Mk2 has been in pretty similar conditions for the last couple years. It's been garaged 98% of the time, and there is VERY little humidity here. However, the garages it has been in get down to around 45-50° F. Still a problem if the gas in it has been there for at least a year now? I fill up...

    Pre 89 Front End with 89+ Turns?

    Personally, I like the way the pre-89 stuff looks as is. Ever seen one coming at you with just the running lights on? They're so wide, it looks rather menacing. The 89+ turn signals, they look good on an 89+ bumper. On a pre-89, I think you'd have a HUGE gap between the lights. Hard to say for...

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    I... washed... my... car... For those of you who don't know me, this does NOT happen often, considering the road conditions around here, and climate. If I wanted to drive a clean car daily, I'd have to wash the damned thing every time I got home. :p

    Chosing a manual transmission for my LS engine swap...

    There have been people who have adapted R154's to LS engines, and T56's to JZ's and 7m's, much of which has been chronicled on this forum alone. Specific threads don't come to my mind, but do some searching and I'm sure you'll find some good info. As for your post, the T56 is a great...

    Highest HP 1JZ?

    Same here, but I'm not terribly far away, so... for me it's a game of "how much power can you actually lay down" with my car.

    10 reason MK3 Supras are garbage

    7m's have a tendency to reflect the knowledge and dedication of their owners, they're only heavy if you compare them to pure sports cars (and even then only of the time they were made), styling is subjective... All in all man, I have a hard time saying that there was a better overall car made in...

    Ahh, haha, I see what you mean now. This was 4 years ago, when I first got the car. My car may not get washed often (or much at all really), but the inside is kept pretty tidy! I tore the entire car down to the little bit of sound deadening that was there to clean out 20 years of weird shit. You...

    Is there a cure for it....

    Man... I'm sorry to hear this, but I've tried on your shoes before. I dated a girl for a long time quite a few years back, she was an epileptic. I was up here in Wyoming working while she stayed in Arizona... she ended up in the hospital after having some 20+ seizures, almost lost her. I ended...

    Not sure I even understand... that's a pretty typical roach in Arizona. What's all this about starting evolution?

    My 1977 7M-GTE CELICA! Finished! Test drive vid on page 18!

    Your friend's Miata? Now normally I'm all for fast Miatas, or at least Miatas being driven fast, but I haven't seen too many 11 second Miatas in my time... Setup on that car?

    Help please! Just changed heater core and now car won't start!

    OP mentioned that is cranks, so I think we can rule that out unless he has some magical battery of some sort. :) OP, have you checked these things that Satan posted?

    10 reason MK3 Supras are garbage

    Keeping in mind that the Rx7 and Supra were released very close to each other. Comparing an FD to a Mk3 is like comparing an FC to a Mk4. ;)

    7M-GTE powered 1977 Celica Liftback, kicking ass

    Keep in mind that the RWD Celicas share a LOT with the Supras. ;) You get this car dyno'd yet?

    Buy a house or register a car, it's public information, correct? Granted, said information, while easy to find, doesn't usually include pictures, physical traits, etc... Reminds me of a picture I took using my old credit card, to show just how big the bug I found between my passenger seat and...

    10mm or .40

    My sister carries a Walther 380 with her when she's commuting between college and home, just in case. I didn't even know she had it until I noticed it sitting on the counter at my parents' place recently. Nice little gun, light, but has enough weight (and small enough bullets) that I don't think...

    My 1977 7M-GTE CELICA! Finished! Test drive vid on page 18!

    I imagine... Then again, you have to accept that there is ALWAYS going to be someone faster, no matter how fast you are. I mean, I wasn't upset that most of the Supra owners got their asses handed to them by 10 second tin cans with an H badge on the nose... I do wonder about that CTS-V though...

    Daily drivers!

    Just how many Mk4's do you have Mike? Sad to hear you sold all the Mk2's and 3's... As for me, once the motor is pulled from the current car to start the widebody on the 87 chassis, the Mk2 will be my winter steed. Works well enough, and I love the slip angle on the car, it's a blast to drive...

    Help please! Just changed heater core and now car won't start!

    First thing I would check is your EFI fuse. ;) As someone who's pulled the dash a few times, you have my sympathies.
