    Cleveland news reporters hittin' the bong a little hard today...

    W...T....F!!!!! Really it's not surprising coming from a news agency that fought for it's right to lie on open airwaves. http://www.relfe.com/media_can_legally_lie.html

    Question about ECU

    This connector goes from the ECU to the body harness. It is called connector E10 and will need to be spliced in if your swapping this engine in to the MKIII. (This is connector E10 if your reading a MKIV wiring harness. It is connector E7 if your reading a Aristo/GS300 wiring diagrams.) This...

    Mafia Wars

    Same here, and I've never tweeted a single twitter. Come to think of it I've never even been to the web sites. I'm pretty anti-social when it comes to the internet.

    Diagnosing a smoking 2JZ has me stumped

    Thanks for the reply. The valve stem seals are where i'm leaning next. But I'm also wondering about my pcv system(It's stock). As there is a fair amount of oil in the pipes and where the hose of the pvc system comes off the valve cover and goes to the intake pipe on the exhaust side the is a...

    Reverse grinding

    Poodles got it, No synchro on reverse. Another method is to push in the clutch put it in first and then slid it back in to reverse.

    Any Input on this ? Positively Engaged Infinitely Variable Transmission... Universal

    Interesting. The claim to be able to be in neutral while the gears are still engaged had me wondering, but I guess it is possible. http://www.lib.ucdavis.edu/dept/pse/resources/cvt04/papers/04CVT-51.pdf

    Salesman at Toyota thought my supra was a nissan.

    Salesman at Toyota thought my supra was a nissan.

    I don't hold it against him, It's not like I was expecting him to be able to quote me the year, color code, and engine just by looking at my car. But it was Toyota's flagship model for many years. I would think that he would at least recognize the name, And the fact he called it a Nissan even...

    Salesman at Toyota thought my supra was a nissan.

    I could live with it being called a 240, hell I've learned to keep the blood pressure low during ford probe comments. I just wasn't expecting friendly fire at a Toyota dealership. :biglaugh:

    Salesman at Toyota thought my supra was a nissan.

    Yeah I told him(on two different occasions), but he seemed completely disinterested in my Toyota and only wanted to talk about the features of the truck. I even made a comment at one point about how big a Toyota fan I am and I got a weird vibe from him. Almost like he didn't share my feelings...

    Salesman at Toyota thought my supra was a nissan.

    I guess it just goes to show the sales people don't really know anything, But I was still shocked as hell. I went to Foothills Toyota in Burlington, WA, to pick up some parts for my MKIII and while I was there I decided to take one of the new 2010 Tundras out for a test drive. So I put the...

    passenger window wont go up

    I had a problem like this, for me it was the electrical connector located behind the passenger side kick panel. It carries power for the window motor and it had worked itself loose.

    Smashed rear glass (windshield?)

    It's true, no more new glass in the US. I had the same issue(with trying to source one). So I went with a used piece.

    Raced an Evo 9

    Evo's are no joke. I have a buddy with a Evo 9 RS with some decent BPU style upgrades. I've driven it and my butt dyno says it would wax my ass. It might be because of the lighter weight and the stiff as hell chassis that the RS's came with but that car feels evil quick. It's a solid car and it...

    $2,200 2jz swap

    I'm assuming this is a 2JZ-GE, as such I would stick with the 7M. If it is the 2JZ-GTE then that's sick deal and I would jump on it. Just know that with the 2JZ swap there are a lot of little things that can add up very quickly.
