    Airbag swap?

    the airbags in our cars are gen 1...and they HURT LIKE HELL from what I understand... wear your seatbelt properly and you'll be fine...supra is a tank and doesn't like to deform the passenger cabin greatly protecting them.

    Who here is running an MR2 alternator in their car?

    yes, but the amps used to power the electric fans negates this the ONLY advantages to electric fans is: - they don't run all the time, so amp draw isn't always on (stock fan clutch does this as well, but not to the same degree - packaging (used in FWD cars as a traditional fan is...

    Anybody want a Turbo A?

    die in a fire :evil2: though I'd probably dissect the car to find out EXACTLY what was different about it... Turbo A was the fastest production car in japan....until the damn new skyline came out less than a year later...it's a piece of history.

    R.I.P.

    sounded like one tire locked up and not the other, ect... 70mph is slow.... I take corners at 100mph... stock suspension and tire size, but good tires this is a case of either mechanical failure or driving outside you're limits...or a bit of both... EDIT: what color is the interior?

    yep, they have to be pressed per the TSRM... really sucks, but it's not too bad to have it done (had to change the axle bearings on my old truck, they had it done in a few hours...)

    Exhaust header wrap on the downpipe?

    I have a DPP, I put the stock heat sheild back on (slightly modified) and it helps a lot... I've heard of ceramic couting AND wrapping, but I'm against wrapping in most cases as it will trap the heat to the point where it can crack things...

    HID Bi-Xenon, 5000k vs Hella Halogen, Pics!

    sounds like maybe a bad headlight relay if it's not the headlight relay, check the integration control relay (I feel like a broken record on this issue) if neither one is the issue, check your wiring. I have a fog light rewire and mine works fine, wonder what it's doing wrong with the...

    rack and pinion questions

    it's not easy to change... toyota in their infinate wisdom puts it in from the top, so pulling or lifting the engine would be the easiest way... Brewster: man that's pretty damn cheap, wish I knew about this when the engine was out!!!
