You'll need a JZ flywheel, and also a JZ bellhousing. The clutch itself is specific to the transmission, not the engine. As for the speed reading, that depends on the gear in your transmission that the speedo cable is spun by, AND your rear end, not to mention overall tire height. My...

Yep. Thoughts?

I'm of a split opinion on highway speed limits, at least in clear, good weather in daylight conditions. On the one hand, I see the argument for slower speeds (reaction times and stopping distances are obviously better off at lower speeds, as well as overall vehicle control, not to mention crash...

I wish more people understood this, we'd see more Mk3's on the road. This is actually WHY I refuse to change anything on my Mk2 until the 6m gives up the ghost. :) Basically, any rubber and fluids, you're probably going to want to change out, just due to age more than use. I bought a...

Just curious what you call a 'stock' truck that can do 170mph... 120, sure. 150 if you're in a Ram SRT, sure. But 170? Come on man... I agree with you to an extent though, that you'll generally attract more attention in proportion to the size of your spoiler. However, I could paint my car...

With my 88 NA, I regularly saw 26-30mpg on the highway. Granted, I'm at a fairly high altitude here. That same car would get around 25mpg highway in Phoenix. Among things to look into inspecting/servicing is your alignment. How do the tires look? If it's sitting funny on the alignment specs...

Wouldn't mind seeing that myself. After all, pics or BS, right? :p Pretty cool man. Would have probably picked up a 300kph one not long ago if it hadn't already sold.

Did Hogan buy a Mk3 this time? :puke: Probably fun to drive, but why do that to the outside???

I see the occasional glimmer of hope among the generation you speak of around here. There will always be those that work harder than others in every generation, just as you will always have useless sacks of crap in every generation. Usually those that fall under the second category go into...

Anyone wanna visit? I could strap/carry pretty much any legal-to-own firearm I want, go for a walk around town, and with the exception of courts, and I believe city/county run businesses, I'd be in the clear. :)

I'm going single while we swap all the good bits of my car to a different shell. As long as you keep your fluids in good shape, and you accept the fact that your turbo(s) could die at any point, I don't see it being a problem. As for the technical questions, I can't really help you there. I'm...

The ground strap was still attached to the plug though, that's what confused me. :)

He's in upside-down-land Andy. ;)

Generally speaking, I'd agree with you there, but I'd have bought a bottle. Laughter, a show, AND what appears to be a decent cleaner? Sure, sign me up. :D

I could have sworn Treadstone offered one at some point, but that was long ago that I was looking, so I could be mistaken. Welcome to Supramania by the way. :)

Sure you aren't posting pics of my engine? :p Seriously though, quite similar, but mine isn't quite that bad... I just chalked it up to one of my twins on it's deathbed. Not terribly concerned with it myself. Definitely a good reason to keep on top of your fluid levels...

Ahh, perhaps we're not on the same page here, at least with my case. I was assuming debris inside the combustion chamber is what killed my plug. Totally agree with you, kinda hard to argue with that picture, no way a piston and plug are kissing in our engines. :)

Uh oh... if she's opposed to a 2 seater, I'd wonder at what she's wanting to PUT in that back seat. :runaway: I thought that was your choice though? Never read anything about regretting it... Nice man, those cars are an absolute blast. In fact, that's what I learned how to drive a sports car...

Sorry to hear man, happens to us all at least once I suspect. Just keep your chin up and remember that not very many people manage to get out of the Mk3 game and STAY out. :)

Look at the bright side of this, reducing the gray market import rule to 15 years like Canada will certainly benefit the enthusiast market. Anything that could bring business to our country in a positive light is alright by me. Maybe not so much the initial investment in the cars themselves...
