I gave it a shot, did not rank all that well at all. Granted, that was when I was still getting used to the G27 and using the thing on manual shifting for the first time... Could probably improve my times, but I know I'm not even in the running, there are MUCH better people out there than I. :)

I'd be getting another brother, but that's little to do with the problem at hand here. -The little metal bits you find are likely rust caused by people not using distilled water in their coolant mixture. Iron (which makes up most of your engine bay's contents) is very prone to rust when exposed...

Nick, I thought the Saudis have traditionally been a good ally of the US?

Stock fender, you can run 275's on, but it's (sorta) tight. What sort of offset are you looking at on the Cobra rims? Also, would probably get a better response in the wheel fitment thread. General Mk3 area, stickied, usually on top. ;)

Blue smoke is a ticket-able thing? What about all these tools in their big diesel trucks smoking like crazy? As for meets, would have to be a Saturday or Sunday for me, being that I have about a 2 hour drive to SLC in good weather... Weather being the only other consideration for me. Village...

Make sure you remove the wires from the bottom of the driver seat. Should have two separate connectors that you need to disconnect. Then it's just 4 14mm bolts, one at each corner of the seat. One more thing to remember is the seat belt fastener guide rails... Helps also, to telescope your...

I'd say you got a good deal then, so long as the shell is in good shape.

Monthly meet wouldn't be a bad idea, at least when it's nice weather. You guys ever eat at Village Baker? Would be a good place for a pre- or post- meet lunch. :)

Keith Hart had one for sale sometime last year... KeithH is his screen name I believe. Try PM-ing him or just search for his FS threads. If my memory serves me, it was on the lower right hand corner... the sticker.

I did this to mine, but she still leaks. Never did replace the hatch seal though, I'll probably do that on my new shell.

Always liked the s12's. Reminds me of the Mk2 L-types, but with ugly taillights. Is that part of a head gasket hanging from the tie down hook on the back? :)

Yeah, I suppose that makes sense. No way I could have afforded a new Crown with one of these.

What Wedge said. Can find used sets on here for anywhere from $100-200 quite often, but that's NOT a job I'd wanna do with the engine in the car. That's half the reason I plan on going with a single, I'm not big on the fustercluck that is our exhaust side of the engine.

$12, take it or leave it. Honestly, the question is, what's it worth to YOU? My car, to me, is worth at least 8k. Is there a chance in hell that anyone would pay that much? Probably not. If he's asking 5k, and you think that's too much, counter offer... Easy enough, right? :) Remember: Nothing...

Stock boost gauge will work, it's on a different sensor though, near the cruise control stuff already in the car. Honestly though, why? Not only is the stock gauge extremely slow to react, doesn't show vacuum, and only reads up to ~8psi (less than stock 1j with exhaust btw), it reads a bit low...

Something to consider, are your hoses pushed on far enough? I know it seems like an obvious thing, but mine weren't, and due to the fact that it's a pain in the ass to get to, I let it go for a while. Didn't wanna take another road trip with a little coolant dripping into the car (and the heat...

Holy wall of text Batman! ;) Got a good, solidly reliable daily driver? If so, good. If not, forget the Supra until you've got one. :)

Good to hear man. I've been attending since 2006, whether I had a car of my own that year or not. It's like my annual ritual, my one chance to get away from the insanity that is Wyoming... Had. Was fun and cheap, but wasn't pretty though...

I would recommend that you not tint your tails any darker, UNLESS you fabricate a way to make your lights rather bright. Nobody likes being rear ended because some asshat can't see through your VHT. ;) On the subject of tint, I tint all my cars, with the exception of my Mk2 (just haven't yet...

Black goes with anything man. ANYTHING. ;)
