    By far the worst condition supra ive seen so far.

    Interior is clean. Looks like it was driven in the winter with the horrible de-icing chemicals as all the sheetmetal on the MKIII is galvanized and as such doesn't rust easily...unlike the MKII's which sadly rust fast :(

    Silicone Heater Hose Should I, if so where from?

    Yep, I actually bought brand new clamps from the dealer when I put my samco radiator hoses on. I :love: my samco radiator hoses and hope that they will make the full set for our cars...

    Supra Oil Cooler

    rawmk3: There is no need to go right off the oil pump as the oil has to go to the oil filter before the rest of the engine anyway. It's far cheaper (and less likely to go wrong/leak) to just use a block adapter like discussed in this thread and have a remote oil filter setup.

    Targa-less body flex

    I swear, I see one of these threads a week... I have to say it everytime as well... RETORQUE YOUR SUBFRAMES It really does many a HUGE difference and make the car feel completely different, even with the top on.

    The use of LC VOIDS YOUR WARRENTY-Nissan GTR

    It means they're waving their rights, which would be stupid to do. But of course people don't read the fine print...

    Wet Sanding

    You MUST presoak the sandpaper overnight for it to work correctly. Yep, a little dish soap in the bucket is needed. It's labor intensive, that's why new cars have such shitty finishes as they no longer do any wet sanding...

    Alternatives to a Supra....don't hit me!

    Shit happens :( They'll waive the shipping fees, I'd give em another shot as it's not that a business doesn't make mistakes as they all do, but it's how they handle them.

    The use of LC VOIDS YOUR WARRENTY-Nissan GTR

    Can't do that because of a court case YEARS ago. It's why there are independant shops that do service. My personal opinion on the GTR's LC is that it's NOT in the manual on how to use it as it's a hidden feature. Much like Ferrari did with their transmission... Without LC, the GTR is not...

    Deck smoothness of a block and head from the factory

    Most of the time the finish is related to how fast they run the machine over it. The slower it's done, the better the finish, but time is money...

    H.I.D. disaster

    HID's aren't instant on, and don't like to be cycled quickly. So have either bi-xenons or HID low beams with halogen high beams that also keep the low beams on.

    Cutting up my Super Dragger?

    It's a tuned system... It's your car and you can do what you want, but I wouldn't do ANYTHING that will induce drone in an exhaust, it's downright MADDENING.
