    My Supra timeline.. The addiction continues with 12+

    I like the wheels on that black one, but the brakes need some paint :D Looks like you wisely swapped the pre-89 mirrors for some 89+ ones as well...but why did you change the mouldings?

    THE FUCK?!??! IF you're gonna cut the springs, you cut from the top as they aren't tapered there... Did you slap the previous owner?

    What is the hottest steering wheel for a MKIII?

    Any *A70's without AC stock?

    Cars without A/C usually run a different box under the dash. Instead of having a heater core and an evaporator, it has only the heater core and is much smaller. On a side note, on many GM vehicles they had the A/C "briefcase" in the engine bay that people would get the non-A/C blockoff plate...

    Is the MKIII growing popularity?

    I "settled" for the MKIII, but it grows on you a lot... I still like seeing MKIV's, but it seems that they all look the same... Growing popularity? Well, judging by the amount of posts, I'd say the Honda guys moved up to the 240's, now the 240's are too expensive and they're moving onto...

    Buy a Used AFM?

    I would buy a lexus AFM as you can just use the box from the lexus in your stock housing until you decide to get injectors. It's what I did. Also, you can clean the hosuing all you want if you remove the electronics first, and if you CARFEFULLY use a lint free cloth with a little solvent (I...

    Head bolts and torque settings. HELP!!!

    Hey, cleaning the threads in my block took hours... Bolts use about half the depth of the hole, studs have to go in deeper or you'll run out of threads on the top and never toque them down correctly... Back to the subject at hand, if it's a MHG, you MIGHT be able to retorque it and get it...

    Fallout 3

    I found that I got a bit sick when I played on my bro's computer and not mine, but I have a light to the right of my desk and he doesn't. Much like in an iMax theater, if you can't tell that you're not moving in some way (like the light next to my desk, or backing away from the screen) you...

    Head bolts and torque settings. HELP!!!

    On a stock headgasket, if you blow it, you deform the sealing rings. Torque it down all you want, it's not going to fix it...

    Will stock airbox kill my power?

    Stock air box has some flaws in it's design IMHO that limit power, but I'd still be running one if it would have fit with my hardpipes... Running high boost on the stock piping won't end well either ;)
