    Supra in Joe dirt!

    I dunno, man. I don't know what's more frightening... you actually watched that movie, or that you actually watched that movie, up close, to find it. Still, good find!

    Cheap bastard awards....

    Some of my favs... "Merda taurorum animas conturbit." "Estne volumen in toga, an solum tibi libet me videre?" "Illegitimi non carborundum." - Bad use of Latin, the literal Latin phrase "Operor retineo non forensis liberi attero vos" is more proper.

    Engine throwing codes 42 and 52... may need a new knock sensor...

    I just got two codes from my ECU this morning and am pretty sure what one of them is caused by. The code 42 being the vehicle speed sensor which is probably left over from when I swapped out my speedo cable, and another code 52 which is the knock sensor. I'll be looking into replacing that one...

    High quality 160* thermostat?

    Uhhhh... wow. I run a 160deg. in mine. Got it from the local Car Quest store, who also distributes for our local Bap Geon's. Walked in, said I needed a 160deg. thermo, they hooked me up in 5 seconds flat. Even had the gasket to put on it, without fail. Didn't realize performance thermostats...

    Please PLEASE stop me from buying this car...

    West End is Glen Allen, VA. And my wife told me just now if I buy another "toy", she will eviserate me and splay me out on the porch for the ravens to enjoy. Lovely image, neh? Ohh, and my wife used to wrestle for GLOW... she can do it... :1zhelp: Look up Gremlina GLOW on Facebook.

    Spark plug change-Won't stay started

    It does sound like a poor ground. There is one wire by the coilpack that threads down to the block on the right side of the pack. I cleaned mine when I removed it to swap my plugs and cleaned the gunk and crud off then put it back on. FROM: JSeaman's guide...

    Please PLEASE stop me from buying this car...

    It's not a question of not wanting to buy it.... it's a question of how long will I get to live to enjoy it before my wife kills me and dismembers my body for buying another sports car. She's already jealous of my baby MKIII, despite the love and affection I shower on her (my wife, of course!!)...

    It's so pretty... http://richmond.craigslist.org/cto/1503925454.html This MKII is nice. It was the type I really thought about getting before I "settled" (haha) on my MKIII, and this looks like a damn fine car for $1500. :cry:

    TEMS and lower springs dilema - Do I have options?

    For those who have seen pics of my car, I need to drop about 1" to 1.5" to get rid of the "4x4" height my wheels are displaying, and at the same time get springs that ride comfortable and handle well. My problem is I continue to use TEMS, so it's either the factory shocks or Illumina II's. What...
