    could i make these work?

    Well, you can make anything work if you throw enough money at it. Is it worth it? Extra wide fenders can be purchased or built from scratch, however, be forewarned - neither path is cheap.

    Radiator question

    Agreed. The only thing that is even vaguely difficult is the 4 nuts holding on the clutch fan. Everything else is really basic. I'll second the option to just buy another rad - the stock units have composite top and bottom sections, and IMHO they are getting too old to be reliable now. I...

    Exhaust question

    Just tell them it's for track use only. Or find another shop.

    single sub setups

    Single subs can work just fine. Generally you'll either need a fair bit of airspace in your sub enclosure OR a lot of power to drive it. Give it both and it will be LOUD. A single 10 or 12 in an enclosure that uses the spare tire well and the hatch up to where your targa bolts in, with a good...

    steam coming out of oil filler hole

    Blowby is caused by dead or dying rings. Or cracked pistons, but I don't think that is very likely.

    thermal wrap on Ct-26

    I'm not sure I like the idea of thermal wrap, either. It'll keep your engine bay cooler, for sure, but at the cost of keeping your turbo and exhaust hotter. The exhaust side of our turbo cracks just from regular use, imagine how much worse that could be if you run it even hotter...

    TRD 7m-gte & 7m-ge reprogramming Ecu

    Looks like a standard techtom upgrade to me. The problem with that is, for a couple hundred extra bucks, you can buy a complete standalone AEM system that is better in many ways.

    New Clutch

    Spec stage 2 or 3, depending on whether you want grabbing power (3) or long life (2).

    Getting a new car..... what do you think?

    Someone needs to say it. A car that was nice when you were in High School isn't neccesarily going to work as well now. For example... I used to own an old Dodge Dart. Slant six engine, the thing was tougher than a two dollar steak and ran forever without any maintenance. Recently, a...

    The Men Commandments.

    There is some damn funny stuff in here... that is still absolutely true. My favorite is #21.

    Serious issues, cross-post from SF (sorry)

    Well, three things are required to get a cylinder to fire at the most basic of levels. Air, Fuel, and Spark. If you know you are getting spark, (you've pulled the #1 wire and plug and tested for spark outside the cylinder?) and you are dripping fuel out the tailpipe you can be pretty sure...

    new supra?!!!

    Tell that to the Ariel Atom. If that thing gets imported over here, the big sports cars are in serious trouble.

    1jz downpipe

    I don't know if Becauseican has his out yet, but if he doesn't, it will be soon. 935 also sells one. Both of these are vendors here on the forums, check the vendor section.

    new supra?!!!

    OMG, not this endless speculation AGAIN. This thing is vaporware, and anyone who knows anything isn't talking. The only things I think we can absolutely be certain of are thus: - A new Supra will be released. - Anyone who claims to know more than this is usually full of shit. Thread moved.

    raising up

    Holy crap - back off, you vultures! Give the guy some space to breathe! By the looks of things, we might have fixed your problem... just trade with one of the other guys.

    Lanky does the Party thing.

    That's a bit of a drive for me, I'm afraid. I wonder what a last minute airline ticket costs? ;)

    HERE u go parents.

    OMG... that was rich. I keep wondering if there are people who really are that stupid, or if someone like me makes all this shit up to entertain the rest of the world.

    how can I tell???

    EGR is the main difference. Early JDM 7Ms don't have oil squirters in the block, either, however pulling the engine, yanking off the oilpan and inspecting this would be overkill just to find out if the engine really was JDM. ;)
