    Eliminating thermostat

    Back in the day, I ran restrictor plates in place of a t-stat. With the Fail-safe t-stats these are no longer needed as they go wide open in case of failure. The one other thing of note on cooling effeciency is that ethylene glycol has a tendecy to 'hold' heat and not treansfer it as well as...

    Can Royal Purple with LSD additive in R154 cause harder shifts?

    Well ignore my post then. Never knew the specs for the 5 spd trannies. Still cant say I recommend the Max-Gear for trannies though.

    Auto part store brand?

    Think of Niehoff as an even cheaper grade than Wells. They will usually get the vehicle running but there is no quality inside the part.

    Upper control arm

    NAPA carries the control arms. Nice units, have them installed on my car. Average about $260 per side.

    Anyone know of software to eliminate vocals?

    I believe Sound Forge has the capability of removing vocals. Have also heard that Analog X has a DirectX plug-in that will remove vocals.

    How to get out of the Sunday chores

    First off this is not how I planned to spend my only day off. I manage a NAPA auto parts store and am very short handed right now so I run the store by myself. A few weeks ago my wife calls and tells me her '94 Camry stopped running. After getting it home I determine the t-belt has slipped 3...

    blown 22re (as in broken)- hole in block, and runs. :)

    My first Toyota 4 X 4 died a similar death. Front end took a drink and launched cylinder 4. Was still able to drive the truck home. Lack of oil killed the head. Also had an old Corolla that the rod cap fell off cylinder 3. WHen I hit a bump I heward an awkward noise that abruptly ended. The...

    Kckazdude'S car thread

    Picked this little jewel up for next to nothing a little over a month ago. So far I have replaced battery, fuel pump, alternator, lower control arm, tires and brakes. That was the bare essentials to get it on the road again. I also threw out the stock air intake hoses and resonator. For the...

    E-Brake Shoes are Broken

    Personally I would place it at a 3. Others would see it as a 7-8.

    Won a car show

    Pics in this type of thread are mandatory, not optional or conditional. Congratulations on the win. Wish I could say my car was in nice enough condition to even enter a car show.

    Tranny cooler "56k will get owned"

    Go to any NAPA Auto Parts store and ask for part #14818. That cooler is big enough to handle the heat load of our cars. The package comes complete with all mounting hadware and hose. May need to get a little more hose depending on where you loacte it.

    The Worst Thing About Your Supra

    The worst for me has to be the wet lap syndrome. I have got to get my targa sealed.

    A/C issues

    Judging by your quote, it sounds like they condemned your compressor. You can save up the $1000 and let the shop complete the job with full parts and labor warranty or buy the parts to install yourself and let the shop finish the job. Most shops will do this stating no warraties. Some wont do it...

    A/C issues

    Do not listen to anyone that tries to tell you that the cans of A/C sealant will fix it right up. They usually last a season or 2 before a real problem costs you even more money. Usually when a seal leaks the freon out you have also lost at least 1/4 of the oil needed in the system. So even your...
