LOL - how about we agree to disagree here? I should point out that I really have no wish to rewrite history, even the bits that aren't 100% accurate, and I've never been on the losing side.

There are people in right now, but they aren't talking. :(

Recently I was watching one of the vids posted here, and there was another vid on the same page of some 4x4 rock crawlers. I recall in tweaked my interest, so I watched it - there were some nice shots of big crawlers almost lunging up vertical faces. Now I can't find it. Anyone else have...

The TEMS pocket isn't big enough for a wallet. :( I know, I don't have TEMS. It's big enough for lipstick for the ladyfriend, that's about it. Launching shocks and driving shocks are very different beasts. For good handling, you want tight shocks and springs. For good launching, you want...

Ok, there are a few threads on what to do to these cars to wake them up. Here's one: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=17&highlight=order Pay attention to the bit that tells you to fix all the maintenance items before you start modding. There are going to be tons of old...

The nicest thing I can think of that could cause that is snapped springs... I can think of lots of things that would cause a crapload of damage. :(

Neat! The whole engine will glow! :)

Or it's really coming from the bottom, and it's rod knock. :(

Could also be various things on your power steering... are you sure it's oil, not power steering fluid?

First, (before IJ gets here :D), have the head tested for hardness before doing anything else. If it fails the hardness check, strip if for parts and throw it out, it's eaiser to find a new one. Now for the other stuff that I have any knowledge on. #2 - torque to 72-75 foot pounds if using...

ROFL - when I built that logo, I literally typed in nonsense, then resized it so small that you couldn't tell. :D

At an injection service shop. As any performance shop in your area, they should know the places locally that can do this.

Agreed - but this was on Duane's car. CF hood - it's easy to pull with only a single person. :)

Actually, many of us deliberately run up to a litre / quart over. A little over will not cause any problems, and some extra might save your bearings.

It is possible to get it off... but it's not easy. We did this on upgradedsupra's car... once. After that he bought a new set of studs with the hex sockets in them specifically because it was such a huge pain in the ass to deal with. We used IJ's method, left the heater union on, pulled the...

You should be able to just pull 25% fuel with the SAFC.

If I Recall Correctly. :)

Did you folks manage to solve the ECU issues, trying to run it without the stock auto tranny? Or do you just convert to a full standalone ECU?

Normal depth socket will work. Mine does, anyhow. Normally we just unscrew the studs - that's why they have an allen key socket in the top.

No, we aren't quite that old, that was our parents. I bug my folks all the time - we actually went to see Jurrasic Park with my mother, and she complained that the dinos didn't look right... so I said, "Is that from personal observation?"
