Dunno if the holes are in the older subframe...

People were looking at me, it was one of those laugh or cry moments...so I started laughing. Made my turn (FINALLY), pulled into a parking lot of a tire place and all the guys were laughing at me while I threw the top back on. Drive home sucked after that as the windows instantly fogged up...

:rofl:

So you replaced the rack bushings? Both inner and outter tie rods? It's not a hard problme to diagnose (get the car in the air and try to wiggle stuff)

Yep, fixable... but he souldn't have to foot the bill. Hell, my interior has been soaked pretty bad before and it doesn't show it (random ass downpour without clouds above me and I was stuck at a light with the targa off laughing as I got drenched)

Your epic driving wins again. You'd be surprised how few people know to steer INTO a skid...

Stock is linear, progressive is a waste because of the forces built into our suspension design (basicly makes them progressive) No, I haven't seen any supras with terrible sagging, sagging is much more common on leaf spring suspensions than coil spring.

What were you working on?

Drop is in the springs. Check the mounts to see if it's early or late (square engine mounts = early, round = late), and the braced rear subframe was all 89's...

She's in Portland if anyone is interested in meeting up with her.

The more important question is WHY it cracked...

Stripped hex head is a bitch... I'd be concerned that it's siezed or crossthreaded...

I'll bump this back up so people see it. Nobody adjusts their mirrors the corrects way. I don't need to see the side of your car in the mirror, you need to see your blind spot! Stick your head against the window and adjust the driver's side down the side of the car. Put your head in the...

It's bad on concrete too (will eat the finish)

Like he said, it depends what stripped. Did the head of the bolt strip? Did the threads on the bolt strip? Did the threads in the targa strip? Also, stripping usually happens from fastening the targa bolts down in the wrong order...

No, as if it dries on stuff it leaves a residue, and it eats aluminum by oxidization, so it's not going to really leave it clean... Gas would be better, leave it in the sun after it's emptied out and it should all evaporate quickly...

Castrol super clean WILL eat aluminum as well...

With HID's, YES you want quad high beams as you don't want to be turning the HID on/off. You don't really have to go bi-xenon with a quad setup, though I'm sure you already know that...

Longer hose = more chance for leaks or pinching... On our setup it won't be long enought o matter, maybe with a FFIM it might though.

Nope, that's why it's good to upgrade it :D I haven't yet, but I can tell you that after hitting the twisties hard the wheel gets noticably harder to turn...
