    Finally picked up a summer car... No Supra though :(

    I like em, but direct comparisons between the MKIII Supra and the Z31 will show the Z being severely lacking... No intercooler, no aftermarket for em, ect ect ect... I also blame the Z31 for the whole "sleepy eye" craze LOL I ALMOST bought one before I bought my Supra though, so I do...

    Bleach Fans. Newbie here need your help.

    bankai version is good, the shikai (not that he has a non-released form) from anyone I've seen is too small. Not that you'd be able to hold the damn thing if it was seriously that big, just like the Tessaiga (Tetsusaiga in english) or Cloud's sword from FF7... I might start a collection...

    UPDATE Another Rustang trying to hot rod gets t-boned by me PICS INSIDE

    He'll need to clarify it, but it sounded like he was told to leave without any tickets being issued. They may have been issued after he left though, the police report will tell.

    Rod knock....already? are you serious?

    *chuckle* OK, you're gonna hate me, cause I'm getting deja vu here, but I remeber setting my timing and getting "rod knock" It wasn't rod knock but the damn idler pulley for the timing belt, since you don't have the top cover on, it's gonna be even louder. It's worth pulling to find out...

    Charcoal Canister/ Engine Bay cleanup...

    You're missing the point *sigh* It regulates the pressure in the tank, that in turn can regulate fuel flow.

    Shifter bushing help!

    Ok, I retract my statement, I will comment. You marred the gasket surface (gear oil smells great), probably bent the pins (shifter isn't gonna be smooth...until it wears in finally and then gets loose), maybe sent metal into your tranny, and managed to break the new seat. I don't really...

    V mounting?

    V (or in the insane world with all three coolers, Z mounting), is more useful in cars that not only have the room...but don't have the airflow like our cars do. Most of the V mount cars I've seen are the ones that get their air from under the front bumper and then it's channeled up to the...

    anyone run breather filters on their car?

    Not to mention the simple fact that the breathers get loaded up with oil, clog and then the system can't breath... That's bad, ok? Yes, a catch can fills up with oil over time, it's to prevent your intercooler/piping/intake, ect from filling up with oil. Also, did you know oil lowers...

    UPDATE Another Rustang trying to hot rod gets t-boned by me PICS INSIDE

    It doesn't look bad, but I bet you it did more damage under the bumper cover... You're in Texas, do you have a Craig's Collision near you? They warranty their repairs for life and the work I've seen em done is meticulous...

    Do you want Energy Suspension Poly Bushings? READ HERE.

    Poly steering rack bushings would never wear out as the main cause I've seen is they get drenched in oil... Can't wait, I don't need the bushings that bad (well, I probably won't say that after the poly ones are installed), but I will most definately buy them and take over the garage for a...

    Supra Steering wheel re-covered!!!

    Meh, to each their own, but the wheelskins feels great, I like thicker steering wheels as they're easier to hold (ask ANYONE from the Austin meets about the way I drive) I got the car with the wheelskins on, and now a normal supra wheel feels way too small... Oh, and what was that about a...

    Why does everyone underestimate the MKIII?

    The MKIV's are starting to get old as well, and starting to "rot." Mine doesn't look the best (anyone that's seen mine), but I do what I can to keep it looking good and running well. Yep, gotten the FWD 4-banger lines a few times, then I burn the tires and they STFU. Supra's are...
