    So, who happened to outbid me on these sweet Blitz wheels???

    Would have been perfect for my car (color is a blue/purple/black depending on light conditions), and more or less wide enough and set far enough out for me to be happy. When they first put them up for bidding they had them priced at ~$1750, so I figured $1200 would have been a good deal. :)

    anyone know the normal operating temp range for Toyotas? Tried searching, but I

    Around 118*C it will start heading north on the stock temp gauge in a hurry, 220 might be a tad warm, but it shouldn't kill your engine, if Toyota's engineering department set the gauge to read 'normal' from ~80*C-118*C...

    Desperately need a working ISCV for a 1j!

    If you weren't meant to be able to do this, Toyota would have sealed it off, similar to what they did for the 7m, no? I'm just recommending what might get him through the day, give me a good reason it's a bad idea, back up your theory on why my idea doesn't work. Oh... I believe I might be...

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=370418167639 Just curious, I figure it's almost gotta be someone on here. Hope they look better on your Supra than mine, because they would have been AWESOME on mine, color scheme-wise.

    Red 92...smashed all to hell...Buy the Shell???

    I'll toss my vote in on 1k for the interior at least... if it's in good shape of course. Maybe offer him $500 for just the interior, who cares about the rest? Can't be much there you don't already have or need...

    Desperately need a working ISCV for a 1j!

    Could you back out the throttle screw a bit? Talking about the set screw inside the nut to the left of the upper left nut on the throttlebody... hope that made sense. :)

    2010 Supras Invade Las Vegas (tm) – mid October

    Already planning things out, the things I wanna get done before then (you should see the pile of parts in my room awaiting a long weekend!) and have every intention of being there for the fourth consecutive event Keith. Need to start setting aside money for this though...

    Who has the highest Mileaged MK3?

    Sold my 88 at around 145k, rarely had even a minor problem after the BHG fix. 89 probably has something around 110k, speedo's been broken a while. Mk2 has over 215 and running strong though! :)

    How to wire up an electric fan?

    x2 on the switch suggestion. Wiring is probably my weakest point when working on a car, but even I was able to figure it out with a bit of advice. ;)

    Well, some asshole put me out of the Supra game....

    What is HST? And give the Stang guy a break, he drives a Ford, isn't that reflective enough?

    How picky is your Supra? I have 3 Supra keys belonging to three different cars that will do different things for different cars...

    Why do you think I wasn't on here, you scruffy nerf herder? ;)

    Would you believe me if I said I'd avoided that show like the plague?

    Shifter vibrations?

    Actually... you know what? It had fallen off the end of the shifter when I was pulling everything apart. How the hell does THAT happen anyway? Thanks for pointing that out btw, I had forgotten about that...

    What do you think about this? Video.

    Link doesn't work. ;) I'd suggest you stop using Dodge products if your department can. Can't say I've ever heard of oil turning to a jelly like form, my guess would be some sort of foreign chemical may have been introduced into your vehicle somehow, and caused a chemical reaction... but I'm...

    Well, some asshole put me out of the Supra game....

    I'd love an old 18RGEU powered RA2x Celica someday. Almost bought a former race/rally one before I picked up my current Mk3... Wouldn't mind an old Skyline either, they were pretty sweet. However, not many of these cars are around anymore, JDM or otherwise. I gotta ask though, what's with...

    Hella 90mm Headlight Setup

    I wouldn't be running for dear life, but it wouldn't exactly be very high on the list of $1000+ modifications either. Now if I didn't have two car payments to make... This sort of thing would be done in a heartbeat. :)

    Speedometer showing much to high after W58-R154 swap..

    Mechanical speedometer buddy, shouldn't be any resistors. What's your setup? Tire size, rear end ratio? Plug those into this: http://akb.norbie.net/Public/Gearing.aspx Not too hard. Take for example your car. If one assumes it's a stock 87 turbo with 225/50/16, 3.91 ratio, then at ~3000rpm in...
