    Suggestions on down pipes, and exhaust in general

    I'm with everyone else above. My girl got a nice necklace and bracelet that she wanted for her birthday. She wouldn't even THINK of asking me to pay for a dress that costs that much. Especially if she knows I got the money by saving over time for something that I really want. I don't neglect...

    why can't people determine the difference between fact and opinion?

    Problems with SF??? As for why they don't know the difference I think you hit the nail on the head. New owners come in and try to gain respect by regurgitating things they've heard or been told. SM seems to stay on top of opinion based help better than most.

    Dealt with Alamo Motorsports?

    I've bought a couple things from them. Most recently about a year and a half ago. Never had any issues. They shipped me the wrong size HKS replacement filter and had it corrected within a week.

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Did this myself a couple weeks ago. Soooooo much better. For some reason my driver side looked just like yours with rusty pins but the passenger side is perfect. If you're like me and don't have a good place nearby to get parts from, Toyota can still get new ones but expect a 2-3 week wait...

    Can someone tell me what this valve(?) does? (pic)

    That port is used for your power steering and your BOV. Connect it back properly and avoid that mechanic in the future. There's likely an issue 'further down the line' in either the PS vacuum circuit or the BOV line.

    passenger side window wont go up

    This. Get a good contact cleaner WITH LUBRICANT or you'll be doing it again in a couple months. Most contact cleaners have lubricant built in just double check before purchase. You can get them at most auto parts stores, walmart, radio shack... The lubricant forms a seal that will help...

    Piriform Recuva /story Almost all of the software based solutions are the same. Recuva is free and easy to use. If it can't recover your data there are professional data recovery services. PS, I used to do tech support for a major digicam manufacturer. ;)

    What are you reading?

    I don't find a lot of time for reading. A book the size of Dragon Tattoo takes me about a month to finish between working on the 7M, working 40 hrs, martial arts class, computer games,... And for me it's plastic. I thoroughly enjoy my Kindle Touch. I couldn't do a Fire or iPad for reading...

    Turbo help

    SP stopped making the 61GT and now makes the other bolt on in various trims. The 5857 is good to 605hp according to their site. http://www.spracingonline.com/store/Precision_CEA_Billet_87-92_MKIII_Supra_Direct_Bolt-On_Turbo/3143 I've yet to hear a bad thing about SP's turbos and plan on...

    Daily drivers!

    I've been daily driving my 87 turbo going on 8 years. In over 100k she's been very good to me and currently runs 12psi daily with only the aid of CompCams valve springs and a Greddy timing belt. Of course it's all in the maintenance. She's been down a total of maybe 3 or 4 months in the 8 years...

    poly subframe bushings kit

    Last I knew Raptor stopped carrying these. I already picked up stock steering rack bushings but I'd love to get my hands on a set of your subframe bushings. Price and availability info would help a lot of people I think.

    Dyno my baby today :)

    I'm just glad a MKIII had the balls to get up on Titan's dynojet this year. I was there last year and it was MKIV after MKIV with 1 DSM thrown in for giggles (he made 4xx after Darin laid down over 1100 in his yellow MKIV). I always thought that combo produced a little more as well. Thought...

    Anyone else have a cat that acts like a dog?!

    My Himalayan is a vacuum cleaner just like a dog. His favorites are bacon and McDonalds fries but he'll eat 99% of what you put in front of him. Tomato, lettuce, taco shell...
