    Wow, that jet engine is so cool. That is amazing you just "cobbled it together" with spare parts. No wonder the digital dash was so amazing Pyro! Slightly off topic, would anyone like the old rotors from my 89 Turbo ABS? I was just going to recycle them as I think they are Les Schwab and sure...

    Thanks for the info super51fan, will sort out the pan as you recommended when I use the FIPG. I noticed that even Toyota sells a pan gasket, so I had wondered if this was the preferred method of sealling things now. And to be honest, not having to deal with FIPG under the car was very...

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Oh man JDM, that sucks! I am not sure of your year, but here is the part in the 1990 EPC from Cygnus' site: http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/EPC/291420/catalog.aspx?F=7601&P=1 Looks like it is called the Cover, Front Facia. I bet the metal brace behind it will need replacing too. Hope...

    The real question is...does it have a digital dash?!? Still kicking myself for not seeing yours before you sold it and moved away. Stupid work!

    I recently picked up the same Duralast filter as I was not sure when it was last changed. There was a real gasket present when I removed the old filter, so at least I know it wasn't the original one! But now I have an ATF leak from one corner of the pan : ( I followed the TSRM and torqued...

    The word Phaeton comes to mind when I look at that!

    Anyone know how to get ahold of Tokico Illumina II TEMS shocks?

    Looking forward to your review on the tires! On the subject of cats, I am hoping to get the Random Technologies metal substrate high flow myself. Exhaust is the only mod I have planned, so based on comments throughout this site I think it will do well for me.

    Love that exhaust Scot. One day I will get one of my very own. Hats off to HKS for making an option that looks almost stock! Did a transmission filter change for my auto. Not sure what the deal was with the giant filter I pulled off... (Top came off car, bottom is not OEM, but it looks the same...

    Anyone know how to get ahold of Tokico Illumina II TEMS shocks?

    By the way, did you replace any other suspension components when swapping out the shocks? I noticed you mentioned the ST sway bar, but did you replace any ball joints or bushings? Hope the new tires work out! If they give you any woes I have nothing but good things to say about the Michelin...

    Anyone know how to get ahold of Tokico Illumina II TEMS shocks?

    I have the new tires, just missing the suspension :P I am pretty sure my shocks are original, so I look forward to joining the TEMS functional club along with you in the next year! Sorry to hear about the smell issues, hopefully that gets sorted without too much trouble!

    Glad to see you all are still abusing Bird and talking Supras! I return to continue to contribute very little after a 6 month or so absence!

    I do hope that things work out for the best with your Supra Faye! I wish I had parts or something to donate, maybe we could start a kickstarter thing or something? Everyone can pitch in $10 or so? (I know it is not much, but I am freshly laid off :() One thousand donations would be $10,000...

    Yeah, hope you are ok too. I understand how you feel, when I wrecked my first MR2 I was devastated for a long time. I still miss the car today. Is there any chance you can fix it with your special skills and connectons? Also, I think you deserve a day or more off after such a tradegy.

    I definitely prefer driving the Supra in the snow as opposed to the motorcycle! But I think a 5 speed Porsche 928 was the scariest vehicle I have ever had in the snow. Seeing the snow pics make me glad we don't get much here :) I don't miss getting ice and snow off the MR2 every morning before...
