    small pinhole leak = loss of pressure lowering boiling point and causing a runaway overheat I had a dent in my upper radiator inlet, and the hose clamp sat right over it, cause the system to lose pressure enough to overheat... it's the little shit that drives yah nuts LOL

    S2 Now makes Carbon doors :)

    SoD: CF doors will be stronger than the stock ones, never heard of the issues with CF hoods not crumpling and cutting heads off? S2 is very reasonable on their other items, their widebody fenders are per pair and they're cheap... that's not too bad though considering how complex the mold...

    Tips for putting engine/tranny back in

    load leveler is REQUIRED for pulling/installed the engine and tranny as a unit. you still will have to bump the tranny down (have someone push on it with a stick) to get it into the tunnel. pre-90's are easy to drop the motor in as the holes are really slots in the subframe and drop right...

    S2 Now makes Carbon doors :)

    the weight is JUST the door, not all the inner workings which makes up most of the weight (glass is heavy) inner door panels for LHD and RHD are the SAME, that trim part where the windows switches are is a seperate piece CF is VERY strong in cases like this (F1 cars have no issues using a...

    4 piston calipers in supra

    it's still more braking area than stock, but the REAL point int eh braking system is to ADD MASS as the stock parts are too thin (rotor wise) and not enough mass caliper wise to stop the heat from being transfered to the brake fluid (which is the really scary part when it boils and you have NO...

    Modified Exhaust laws? I don't understand!

    I love these modified exhaust laws that say anything other than stock is illegal. I'm lucky here as there is VERY little rust, but I'm sure a lot of people have had their exhaust literally rust off long ago on many cars. This is why exhaust shops exist! So now my non-stock exhaust is...
