    5.0 supra its a comin

    I guess I'm white trash. Even though I have a masters degree in engineering & have owned a structural engineering group for the last 7 years that doesn't pull me out of the white trash crowd. :squint:

    5.0 supra its a comin

    I say go for it. I've owned a '92 Mustang GT, so I'm not spouting of with a bunch of uninformed bullshit. Put a set of headers & a free flowing exhaust, open up the intake and stomp the shit out of everybody. everyone is stuck on high HP numbers, but nobody looks at torque, and believe me...

    I might do it, but I'll have to look at my schedule. It will take a lot of time to get it done correctly.

    Gauging Interest : Complete Custom made dahboard

    I use Microstation, I have for the last ten years. Unless you get the original CAD design from Toyoyta to work from & then put your design data into a machine to fabricate it for you, designing it in CAD would be a waste of time.

    tranny trouble .HELP..it just keeps getting worse

    Here's what I recommend. Go thru the complete TRSM checks. This will either confirm or eliminate the electric problems. If everything checks out with your inspection, remove the valve body, clean the shift servos, replace the servo seals (they're like $.80 for two of them). If you still...

    64 is a defective lock up solenoid. Do a more indepth check by using the TSRM's auto tranny section.

    the never ending struggle(BHG possible)

    If you have coolant boiling out of the resvior, go to Napa and get a block tester. It's the best way to determine if you have a BHG.

    I'll speak on behalf of tte's work. I just received my center console from tte, and it looks great. It's very sturdy, well shaped & an overall excellent looking peice. Although I still haven't test fitted it, I doubt there will be any troubles. tte gets :thumbup: :thumbup: from me.

    the never ending struggle(BHG possible)

    I agree with Lagged, & would add the advice to promptly change the oil (w/ cheap shit). Get that shit out of your motor asap. Before you put your valve covers back, after replacing your BHG, pour engine flush through the oil return holes in the head & then change your oil again. Get your car...

    Eliminating the MAF

    No, the MAFT translator doesn't have a setting for 2.5", only 3" and larger. they sell 2.5 - 3" couplers so you can use a 3" MAF with ease.

    power seat back rake problem

    I had a similar problem when I first bought my car. I couldn't adjust the seat backs' vertical postion manually. I took the seat out to investigate, finding that the seat back is adjustable with an electrical switch (it had broken off, I had to repair it). The manual 'adjustment' is only...
