45 miles northeast of San Diego just off of HWY 76, at the base of Palomar Mountain. It’s hard to be in the middle of nowhere in an area as densely populated as southern California, but somehow I pulled it off.

Boy, I bet that is one HELL of an uphill battle.

In your situation HIDPLANET, people have just bent the actuator bar, on the side of the headlights, slightly to get the desired lift. This allows the headlights to come up to a level of your choosing while they are on.

Yeah that sounds about right. The thing most people don't realize is that a stock supra only puts about 180hp to the wheels on a 5-speed a little less with an auto. So with your mods that sounds about right.

The funny thing is, I have that bucket (as I’m sure you do too), but I keep it very separate from my current Supra when taking it apart. It comes in handy thou, when I'm missing a particular nut or bolt.

No controller is needed. Just turn the headlight switch on, and then off quickly as the headlights start to rise. Or you can do it manually by turning the knobs on the side of the headlights P.S. It should be noted that the lazy eye look is frowned upon in the MKIII community, so don’t be...

To further increase the effectiveness of this exercise, after disassembly place all bolts into a large bucket and shake vigorously. Now attempt to reassemble the car. You will now become very familiar with every part of the car as you assemble and disassemble parts several times as you try to...

I'm sitting here in the middle of nowhere Valley Center.

You are correct, it dumbs it down, makes it less responsive easier to control. A manual rack however is VERY responsive at high speeds. You have to pay attention to what you’re doing; the smallest inputs can send you from one side of the road to the other. Now imagine a 3900lb car...

If you do get rid of your power steering make sure you do it right. If not done right in high speed corners the steering can suddenly and randomly jerk toward the outside of the corner. As you can imagine this is very dangerous. It's has been covered a couple times on the proper way to seal up...

If you jumper the DIAG block you are good to go.

Nissan had no plans to badge the GT-R as a Nissan until last April. Things change very quickly in the automotive world and especially with things as flexible as names. All that pic says to me is "we are not sure what we will call our next sports car, we are going to wait and see what the...

45619-14020 It's a little more than $3 from Champion Toyota.

Here is a pic. As you can see the top of the plastic cap has been worn clean off from many years of use. The passenger side has no plastic left at all, so I had no idea there was one until I looked at this side. I just though it was a poor design by Toyota to put metal to metal, though I'm not...

You got it. There should be a plastic cap on that nut. Other wise when you turn your steering wheel to lock, the bolt will rub on the stop plate causing all kinds of racket. Of course, you already know this supra90turbo, so I’m stating it for the benefit of others. ;) Doward: I'll go out...

staticpat: I think he knows that, he is just saying it sounds like a bad CV joint. P.S. Staticpat, that's a cool name. Doward: Does it only make the sound, or can you feel it in the steering wheel and/or chassis?

You know, with him saying that he thinks that the clunking sound might be caused by a bearing. For some reason, I think, he might be talking about the carrier bearing on the drive shaft. Just a guess.

That wouldn't really be a supra problem, only a MKIII issue. Toyota fixed that flaw with the MKIV, making an access cover so you could get to the pump without dropping the tank.

A couple quotes from wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TVR_Speed_12 So sadly, no this car won't see production. Its kind for funny you posted this because I accidentally happened across the speed 12 while browsing the internet only a few weeks ago.

The NAPA Bearings are also Clevite 77
