    Crash Safety Ratings on the MKIII

    I have only seen ONE wreck where the passenger cabin was deformed enough to injure the people inside... Forgot who it was, but he saw the accident coming and pulled his friend in the passenger seat pretty much out of his seat and saved their legs... I feel a HELL of a lot safer in my supra...

    Has anyone heard of an "X-brace" for the mk3?

    there isn't any ground clearance for such an item (unless you run stock ride height) so far as I know...

    Tire siping. Worth the extra $40??

    it will also help with the road noise from the tire... but it's not worth it IMHO as that $40 could have been spent towards better tires. They do it to a lot of offroading tires to quiet them and to make them stick to slick rocks better... SC: nice to see someone know WTF they're...

    Springs and Dampers?

    bilstein arguably makes the best performing dampener (and you won't need springs to lower the car, the shock has different height levels built in) The only reason I'm looking at coilovers is because they'll give me a stiff enough spring without losing ground clearance (I'd like to keep a...

    LPPROformance intercooler pipes

    honestly, I think the reason cooleeze doesn't sell that many is BECAUSE they don't offer t-bolts... T-bolts standard is a VERY good idea and will be well worth it to most people (if not, they're retards since the whole reason to go to hardpipes is to get rid of leaks)

    Curiosity: Dollar sign position before/after numbers

    Believe it or not, standards aren't lower, they're higher. How many different types of verbs are there now? When my parents went to school, a verb was a verb. The English language is an adaptive language and has survived because of this. This is why we have so many acceptions to the rules...

    Curiosity: Dollar sign position before/after numbers

    I don't write in cursive. But recent studies have shown that students that write their SAT essays in cursive have better grammar, spelling, and can more clearly use the english language. Myself, I can read at a very high level, but I have trouble writing that high as my mind is more numbers...

    Is Tanya good in the back seat?

    I always find it funny that people with large vocabularies tend to outcast themselves because of the inharent nature of talking over the heads of others... I was like that once, now the idiot speak has infected me to the point I say "ya'll." Someone shoot me before I start talking like...

    Springs and Dampers?

    I'm aware, but they rebuild them and have a horrible turnaround time.. Have a friend that autocrosses and run konis and eventually bought 2 sets as they kept failing and the turnaround time was over a month... bilstein, you walk into a dealer and they are replaced on the spot if they carry...

    will these wheels fit my supra?

    Jeff: not entirely true... the issue is where the weight is, so keeping the normal overall size of the wheel/tire combo and going up in wheel size will push the weight outwards. The farther out the weight is, the more leverage and centrifigal energy it has, thus losing performance. EVERY...

    Diesel Engines and Compression in relation to a Petrol Engine (say.. 7MGTE)

    the soot is heavier than air, and settles to the ground... it doesn't pollute the air in testing that I've seen... (gotta dig it up)

    AR5 Trans Take Two: The Solstice Solution

    carbs are lightyears BEHIND port injection port injection allows tuning of each cylinder if needed. Not to mention that fuel economy and power are increased with fuel injection because of the better, more consistant, and mixed air/fuel mixture. This is why the old fuelies (mechanical...
