What IJ said. Then get the flatness checked on the cam saddles. Many shops will machine the bottom flat, but if the head was warped to begin with, this will leave you with a flat sealing surface and warped cam saddles. This leads to thrashed cams in short order. Get the exhaust side...

82/83 door handles are concentrated ASS. 84 is the perfect car. Best doorhandles, best hatch.

No, I very rarely drive my car rough. I'm an old guy by now, and driving fast just doesn't have the sparkle it used to when I was still in my teens. To give you an idea... Virtually every hose will be hard and brittle. They may still work, but they will fail periodically. Many of those...

I play TF2 all the time. It's starting to get old a bit - not the game itself, but the various exploits that have been discovered that have NOT been patched. Portal was awesome. Some of those levels I really had to think about. And the Cake... I lol'd.

Your parents are right. For the first several years I spent at least $3000 per year on maintenance. And the car I purchased was actually in pretty nice shape. By now, of course, my car rarely breaks due to age. Now it's from too much power.

You wish. Earlier, when I said that the 5 bolt conversion for the Mk2 was a pain, I didn't mean that I'd shy away from DOING it. :D

This is why every Supra owner should have a fuel pump cutoff switch wired into a hidden location that only you know of. PS: Pictures of the stolen car ALWAYS help. So does posting your cell phone number so that anyone who spots it can call you IMMEDIATELY.

I'll second this. He got me my fittings, the actuator bracket, the actuator... and he was awesome to deal with in the process. I'm sorry I didn't buy the actual turbo from him, chances are I wouldn't have been scrambling around looking for all the extra bits because he would have warned me in...

PS: If you want to know what for... here's a quick preview. The previous photo turned into this: It's the first of, hopefully, 5 different logos for the LumiBlue theme rework I've been doing.

I'd like to find a good picture as close to this angle as possible for a Mk1, Mk2, and Mk4. For that matter, I'd like one of the 2000GT, too. If you can help out, post up links, or if you own one of these vehicles and a decent camera, and you're feeling charitable post up and I'll send you my...

You guys are WAY too nice. I prefer to tell the client that because they are so damn stupid, I'm going to have to format their machine, and everything on there currently protected by the password is GONE. :D

That's not entirely true - I currently own a Mk3, but if I find a nice Mk2, it's SOLD.

Well, lets see - that's more money than Will Neely's 733 RWHP Supra sold for, so I'm going to say it's pretty ridiculous.

Booster would have been my choice as well. My old room mate blew the booster in his DSM, it would suck brake fluid through it into his intake manifold. Car was running really funny while trying to burn brake fluid along with gasoline.

The problem with that is you are now comparing SERIOUSLY upgraded gear to stock. Do the same work on a Mk3 and compare it again.

I forgot about the seats! Mk2 seats ROCK. Light, comfortable, modular.... what more could you want?

He'll never need that many. They expire in 5 years or so, he'd just have to throw out the extras. ;)

Put your panties in 'em.

They both have their problems. Mk3 deficiencies: - The Mk3 loses head gaskets due to lack of torque on the headbolts from the factory. - The Mk3 is too damn heavy, and moving to a Targa instead of a sunroof was a stupid idea. - We lost the interior flashlight and the under hood integrated...

With the best parts and a good tune, I'll be seriously surprised if a few people on here don't break the 1000rwhp mark shortly. What's safe to drive with on is a different story. Personally, I'm in the group that believes power without control is useless, and there is a max tire size that you...
