    Bleach!

    but.... the battles are pretty sweat... decent character development during that arc, but the whole hollow ichigo training forever suuuuuuuuuucked Hey, at least it's not like DragonBall Z where they power up for 10 episodes...

    Bleach!

    you're a good 100 episodes behind... the filler episodes where getting lame... the bounto where pretty cool, but the filler episodes where ichigo is training and we're lucky to have NAY info about him sucked...

    cam trouble

    sounds like your shop doesn't know too much... the "scratches" are the aluminum deposits from the head, it's completely normal... I've never heard of trashed cams... the head would be trashed first...

    third clutch failure.. hydraulic..

    IMHO and quite a few others that clutch is a death wish for your engine and everything else... Most Toyota parts have a 1-year warranty, get a new one. It's up to you what you want to do about the clutch... Personally I've heard of too many engines failing to EVER go near one...

    Completed LSx (or 1 or 6 or 7 or...)?

    my plan a couple years down the road when they get cheap of course is to drop a tundra 5.7 liter motor in a supra... should be a damn fun DD...

    NGK Iridium IX Spark Plugs (Please Read!)

    I love the magazines talking about iridiums adding power... sure, over the old worn out plugs... coppers wear out too fast IMHO, and I have them in my car right now as they where the only thing I could find when I NEEDED plugs. Platinums are stock on our cars and last a lot longer and...

    Would love to see a Supra dash like this -->

    when you see the reflection of your dash in the windsheild put something like a napkin on your dash so you can see the glare easier, most people just ignore it, but if you've ever been in a car with a good black dash mat or a dash painted flat black it's tough to like it... they use suede...

    7MGTE MK3 vs Small Block 400 MK3

    old school iron block and heads build would be quite a bit heavier than a 7M... dunno about an iron block and aluminum head build, but as already mentioned, an LSX series engine is all aluminum and would be lighter...

    someone with a genuine HKS wastegate could you please....

    Aftermarket exhausts, what's it condition now?

    stock exhaust hacked right before the stock resonator, mild steel tubing to a glasspack muffler... yeah, it's loud, drones like mad and overall sucks ass glasspacks belong in the trash SRT-4's don't have mufflers anyway

    Carbon Fiber Driveshaft pics

    Hey, but at least it's not a driveshaft through the floor or gouging the track... On a high HP/Tq race car I'd run one, but as mine is driven daily, the chances for getting it nicked go waaaaay up... Not a bad price though...

    Help with MPG

    manifold gasket being shot on a turbo car, yep, bad milage as the car is expecting the turbo to be spooling, causes all sorts of issues...

    Would love to see a Supra dash like this -->

    Personally if I could get a black suede dash pad I'd love it glare reduction would be worth it IMHO...

    Help with MPG

    O2 sensor doesn't have enough control to cause 11.3 MPG... TPS, AFM, boost leaks, timing... I average around 18 these days, and my TPS is finicky and needs to be replaced...

    Poor supra

    Ebay coilover owners, I need some specs

    other people have done it... they either broke or immediately taken them off cause the ride was horrible... being cheap with something that has the potential to fail HORRIBLY and cause you to wreck your car isn't worth it... if ytou want a cheap route, get bilstein shocks and they have...

    water pump leaking???

    very easy, and I'd recommend one from the dealer the dealer item has a stamped steel impeller and the cheapies have a cash impeller that is cheaply made (and I've seen them fail)

    torque wrench..

    yes, but something that accurate is not necessary for 99% of the people out there... aerospace industry would require such precision though...

    Accordian hose

    getting sick of replacing them? I've had to replace my tired old original one once, and I don't see me replacing it again for a LONG time... It's either getting baked for some reason, or you're buying used...

    valve guides aren't worth replacing unles they're trashed valve stem seals YES valve job YES helicoil exhaust studs YES ensure the head it straight before surfacing CRITICAL (worst case the cams can seize) Comp Cams valve springs are cheap and effective, I run em and the engine...
