    Should I buy it or not?

    AFAIK, the MAF Translator Gen II is not a PRO... http://www.maftpro.com/tgen2info.shtml No timing or boost controls.

    HP Racing Lowering Springs?

    HP - Type A7 - Front 1.8" - Rear 2.2" vs H&R - Type A7, Incl Turbo (F 1.6" R 1.3") Pretty big difference... I'd expect it'd look like the pics of x87SUPRA87x's car, but with the rear lowered enough for the tires to tuck in the wells about a half inch.

    Well crap!!

    This is how most people manage the bragging rights to say stuff along the lines of: "This car's been through 4 motors...." Jeez, there's bound to be something wrong with everyone of the blocks they've got in the shop. Find the most mechanically sound one and actually FIX the problems... it'll...

    JB Weld

    JB Weld holds well enough in many applications... personally, though, I'd just tack it in place with a couple welds. You could probably get someone at an exhaust shop to do it for the cost of a tube of JB Weld and it'll definitely hold.

    any people in COLORADO??

    Nope, it wasn't Don. I've met him a couple times. Haven't talked to him since he left CC though.

    any people in COLORADO??

    I'd like to meet up with some more locals.... 'cept for the fact that it'd probably be rather embarrasing.... me and my li'l ol' N/A tryin' to keep up with our respective peers as the group moves from one location to the next. I'm in.

    any people in COLORADO??

    I'm terrible with estimating ages... I'd say he was def. younger than I though. Compared to the roar of my car his was barely whispering.... even when he nailed it just before I had to make my turn. Damn, I really want to know what he's running.

    any people in COLORADO??

    Younger guy, probably 20's, southern accent? Whoever it was he had one badass ride. Damn that car was quick... and surprisingly quiet. I'd love to know what he's got under the hood, but we didn't have a chance to say more than a simple "hi". Hehe, I knew those headlights the minute he...

    Supra salvage yard

    Yeah... it was a VERY depressing day. I'd finally had the time I needed to get some of the parts I had in mind (10 shifters for starters) and all I found was one new arrival which had already been pretty much stripped, I was informed it was heading to the crusher at the end of the week. I...

    Supra salvage yard

    A yard here in CO had 10, but alas, they've all recently been crushed...... sux. I had a shopping list of parts to grab as soon as i had the time. :cry:

    Fog Light Options

    I'll take a look at my friend's M3 this week. Their fogs are slightly rounded on the outer edge like the holes on that bumper appear to be... anyone have some better pics?

    Acrylic and oil...

    Hey guys, I've been toying for a while with different ideas for catch cans. The oil filter relocation kit I'm running right now blocks up too quickly... works great, but if it's not watched VERY closely it causes issues. So, I've been thinking of using some of the acrylic stock I have...

    water sucks....

    You're drinking the wrong water!!! :cry: Seriously though. That really sucks. I did that with a for Ecsort once, I could swear the cabin filled faster than the engine though.

    Fog Light Options

    Anyone have a cleaner picture and dimensions? Kinda looks like the fogs from an E36 (BMW) would be a perfect fit.

    control arms

    The control arms are a massive PITA. I don't look forward to doing anything with them again. You need to jack up the wheel to relieve some of the stress on the bolts to get them loose.

    I am on Jury Duty

    Oh, c'mon... what's so bad about jury duty. Just remember to have fun and let your enthusiasm show through. Bringing your own beverage and popcorn is sure to make the day pass quickly. Remember to ask LOTS of questions. If things start getting a little slow, remember, there's nothing like...

    engine swap problems

    A little bird, okay, a HUGE mutha of a nasty predatorial winged monster, told me the block needs to be drilled for the Supra's dip stick. Easy? Sure, put the oil pan from the Supra's 7M on it. If you don't have one hit a junk yard (clean the hell out of it before you use it though...

    engine swap problems

    The reason for the difference is that it's from a Cressida and not a Supra. Different cross member = different oil pan and oil pump.

    engine swap problems

    Replace it with a Supra oil pan. This happens often enough and I believe it's usually because the replacement motor is not from a Supra. Personally, I'd recommend replacing the oil pump while you're at it.
