    r154 question

    Usually fails from a high torque, high shock load situation (i.e. dragracing). You'll probably be fine. There is still a lot of speculation as to how to prevent it, but I have not heard of a single failure of a Marlin Crawler rebuilt R154 which includes their heavy duty front bearing plate...

    Supra steering rack ratio

    So far as I know they're all the same ratio, the only difference is the steering dampener on the pre-89's and the PPS components. You'd have to have someone measure to be sure, but I'm pretty sure they're all the same...

    12v to 13.5v?

    12V mod will do nothing but overwork the pump... it's a mod that needs to be done ONLY on certain cars (if you're over the fuel requirements of one walbro I would say)

    Raspy Exhaust

    I will never get why people put test pipes on cars... You're gaining nothing over having a cat on there.

    What do you think of this supra?

    Where do people get the idiot idea to mould the bumpers into the rest of the bodywork? There is a reason it's not done that way even on million dollar cars...

    Supra makes wierd rattling noise after 3000 rpm on every gear HELP!

    Longer you drive it the worse it will get. Staying 7M is going to be cheaper, and ripping your friend off isn't cool...

    help locating ground wire

    Should be one attached to the manifold... Are you sure that's not the starter's positive though?

    hydraulic handbrake install

    You've increased the size of the back calipers more than the front (at least that's what it sounds like). If they are all the same brake setup, the back WILL lock first as the weight is unloaded on the rear tires when you brake. Nothing to do with the handbrake...

    Exhaust Comparison

    Hell, drone will actually put you to sleep as well... It's the main reason I changed my exhaust as the crappy exhaust I had on before droned so bad on long trips (and I took at least 3 a year...)

    1jz or 2jz?

    Stock for stock the 2J will smash the 1J. 2J, but I'm doubting those prices...

    What do you think of this supra?

    Removed mouldings is removing the major bodyline of the car. It's a line that goes all the way around the car and is a styling element that runs into the turn signals... The ONLY car that looks decent with them removed is Randy's (BIC).

    Turbo-A Front Bumper

    Nope, that lip with the vents was on the TTR. The crash bar is specific to the Turbo-A as well. Also, the oil cooler was behind the duct and I think the intercooler was larger.

    rusty wiper screw stuck

    You don't have to remove the interior pieces at all to get the arm off... (oddly enough I've answered this question before so I have pics!) Looks hard to remove, doesn't it? NOPE! Really easy! Now take it off and work on a workbench where the arm can be held instead of working...

    Exhaust Comparison

    Raptor Racing... 3" without a fartcan that everyone runs. It's also mellow but sounds angry as hell when you go WOT. http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=66443

    :Computer_Rant:

    Yep.. I also use Registry First-Aid and System Configuration Utility. Windows 2003 can run with a lot of stuff stripped away without throwing errors like XP does. Been down to 7 active processes in the task manager, it's the reason my very outdated computer can run fairly modern games. I...

    Has anyone done 24 hours of LeMons??

    :rofl: Cop car was pretty funny too. What I find funny is that the car the camera is in is a crown vic police package and the MKII walks on it pretty bad out of the corner... The only thing about the race is that the car IS going to get beat up to some extent, so make sure it's a car you...

    :Computer_Rant:

    NOD32 is a bit hardcore though, so I don't usually recommend it because I get back comments like "I can't get online now!" But it's the ONLY thing I've seen actaully eliminate an virus instead of telling you it's there and letting you figure out what to do... CCleaner (formerly...
