    Best Supra Wax

    Most of the waxes on the market today will give you a great result if you put a little effort into it. For a killer look/feel make sure you do the multi-step process. I have used the same products for the past 10+ years - since I bought my 89T. After I wash the car I do a body scrub...

    SILV06 - Show-and-Shine What's the Dealio?

    I was away from my computer for most of the weekend. I have now approved all pending RSVPs. Please remember that this "show" is not your typical concourse type activity. We seen Supras of all conditions show up - even half painted ones. Don't worry about it. We welcome everyone.

    SILV06 - Show-and-Shine What's the Dealio?

    I'll let you guys in on a part of a secret. I am working on another project that will be using a lot of pictures of Supras. You increase your chances of getting into this project by showing up for the various activities like the Show-and-Shine at SILV06.

    SILV06 - Show-and-Shine What's the Dealio?

    RSVPs for this year's Supras Invade Las Vegas event are rolling in. We are up to 140 total RSVPs. Only 5 of those are non-Supras and 7 of the remaining 135 are planning to fly in leaving 128 actual Supras RSVPd. We are well on our way to having more than 200 Supras in Las Vegas again this...

    Disable automatic door unlocking

    I'm guessing you have an aftermarket alarm as I have never seen a factory Supra alarm that unlocks the doors when the engine (or Turbo Timer) shuts off. What probably happens is there is a signal to the alarm to tell it when the engine shuts off. What might work would be to find that trigger...

    Rant: Im over this spoon-fed tobacco ignorance crap!

    WOW! I haven't seen this much mis-information in a long time. I guess I'll add my own (and no, I didn't read every post). Smoking kills... yes so do cars. I work with a guy that used to work for one of the big Tobacco companies. He had to sign the biggest non-disclosure agreement that...

    My Super-white MK3

    Kevin, looks GREAT! Just one question though... when did you change to the white trim? I gotta get my white 89 back on the road!

    How can someone be a good buyer???

    Actually the PayPal TOS states that you CANNOT charge a surcharge for accepting payments via PayPal. A friend of mine actually had his acct locked for this very reason. http://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=p/gen/ua/policy_payments-outside Section VI: No Surcharges. Under Visa...

    Not related to supras but check this out :)

    We saw a black one of those back at SILV02. It was hanging out at the dyno - and drew a HUGE crowd! There is some footage of it on the first SILV DVD. I'd LOVE one of those things!

    Little rubber stoppers/cushings

    WOW! Why are you paying retail? There are several options on getting discounts. Example: I priced out the accordian hose (this was 8 years ago btw). I had my local shop order one (no money up front) then called Jeff Watson. Not only did I have the part next day air (Saturday delivery)...

    Pac NW Suprafest Caravaning or Cruising

    I'm still working on trying to figure out if I can make it or not. Got the "Get the 'F' out of the damn house for the weekend!" from the wife - joke - and have $$ for gas and food. Trying to find my birth cert - I don't want to get stuck at the border on the way back. If I make it up I...

    SILV06 - MkIII Drag Classes?

    OK guys (and girls), it is that time of year again. Time to make the doughnuts... oops. Time to start thinking about the drag racing at this year's Supras Invade Las Vegas event. There are currently 16 MkIII Supra owners RSVPd to drag race. That could fill two complete classes. We are...

    SILV06 - Where's all the Playa's?

    WOW! Only 5 MkIII guys have RSVP'd indicating that they want to participate in this year's Poker Tournament. What's up with that? I thought you guys had bigger, rounder, harrier ones than that. We are still nailing down the buy-in price but right now it looks like just a mere $77. Just...

    SILV06 Dyno Class Changes

    Unfortunately we are unable to create classes for every possible configuration. We also do not have a class for the MkI Supras. To the best of my knowledge the last time we saw a Turbo 5M/6M was 1999 when Russ came out. We used to have a class for NA MkIVs but that too was cancelled when...

    SILV06 Dyno Class Changes

    Looking at the past participation of the 1Js we are actually looking at lumping them all into a single class. We can't afford to give out awards for every possible combination. Jeff, I'll doublecheck my pricing on the awards - we use acrylic awards that are laser engraved. I never thought...

    SILV06 Dyno Class Changes

    I've had to bring home too many of those MkIV NA awards in the past (nobody is man enough to admit they have an NA MkIV) so that class was killed off a few years ago. This change does mean that we could see a MkII or MkIII show up with a 2JZGE swap but why would someone spend the...

    SILV06 Dyno Class Changes

    Change is inevitible and at SILV change is constant. We are always working on new ways to make this event better. We are very excited about this new change as it will help break down the barriers between the generations. Gone are the MkII, MkIII, and MkIV awards (NA/TurboOnly/Unlimited)...

    Supra years for White Ediitons.

    My 89 has the "White" package including white wheels and trim. In 91 Toyota went with color matched trim but some Supras still got white wheels giving them the "White" package as well. I can't remember ever seeing a "White" package 90 though.
