    I was bored one sunday, then this happened. ( SUBWOOFERS in an MK3) Pics!!

    Yeah I might have to try that with the mirror. I think it's more the adjustment gearing then the actually mount though. Oh well. Lol. I classify myself as a SQL guy. Normal listening I love sound quality. Probably would have bought a 10 if I didn't get a deal on this 12. Every now and...

    Blown head gasket!?!?!???

    I drove on a BHG a whole summer. Kept replacing cooling parts hoping for the best. After a whole summer of overheating at idle/stoplights and boiling over the overflow, I did the head gasket. Thank God that head wasn't warped. From the sounds of it, you're entire cooling system spontaniously...

    Haha you should have never done this, I'm guessing your inner audio guy will come out and if you take them out you'll have them back in the next day. Might as well just consider them part of the car now. ;) Personally I love my ported single 12 off my Rockford 500. Flexes the hatch a little...

    Tick Tick Tick TICK (valve shims?)

    Well, I finally discovered what the noise was, but I'm a little hesitate to say due to embarrassment. I was pulling out of school the other day and I heard a pop followed by a deeper leaky running tone. I thought to myself, I know exactly what that was. My exhaust just snapped. Better pull...

    Looking for a little more pep and maybe a few MPGs.

    Lol If I lose anything it should be the subwoofer, two amps, and 6x9" speakers in the trunk. Good info though. Thanks guys. I think I'm going to do the tune up, a test pipe at the least, and a AEM dry flow. I may have to comment on the rematch results.

    Looking for a little more pep and maybe a few MPGs.

    Now that's what I was looking to hear. By exhaust do you mean full or what I suggested?

    Looking for a little more pep and maybe a few MPGs.

    Good info. Let me rephrase "noticeably faster." I have a buddy with a 3.8 v6 firebird auto. From 0-70 (under controlled circumstances) his nose was about 3 feet ahead of mine. Very very close. I just want enough power to consistantly beat him. A matter of 10 HP would do the trick I think...

    Looking for a little more pep and maybe a few MPGs.

    I have an '89 N/A w58. It's bone stock with only ARP head bolts (BHG repair) and about 146k miles on it. I'm pretty happy with it, but it's my only DD and my first car and honestly isn't worth investing money into. I would like to make it run a little bit happier and healthier for the...

    Don't be alarmed!

    Thanks guys! I'll be obtaining one soon hopefully. On a related note, I remembered that I dynamatted my door last time I had it apart. Lol this could be interesting.

    Don't be alarmed!

    My mkiii is doing the same thing now. I know this thread is dead more or less, but if I could have a couple questions answered that would be great. Where and how much could I buy a new one? Is it something worth getting from a salvage yard considering they where out? And can a passenger...

    Plug near tranny cant figure out where it goes? need help

    I don't want to steal the OP's thread. So please respond to him first. But I think we may be speaking of the same connector. OP: Is it under the intake manifold by the bell housing and starter hanging off a wiring harness by any chance? I think it's white.

    Plug near tranny cant figure out where it goes? need help

    I have a connector under my intake manifold that was never plugged into anything. I discovered it during my HG job. Everything works, I think, I know I have reverse lights. Any idea what it is? 89 supra N/A 5 speed w58 no abs, no TEMS, no air bags. I also have one behind my dash trim...

    Anyone notice this? And I wonder if the owner was a member here.

    The irony would be if it wasn't the Supra that was being worked on. lol and Thank God everyone was alright. At least that's how it sounds.

    Tick Tick Tick TICK (valve shims?)

    Hello guys, it's been a while...my car was doing great. (7mge, 5 speed bone stock) Well anyways, ever since I bought the car at 120k it's had a very very slight click. Once she's all warmed up and idling beautifully at 750 there's a very faint, but still noticable, tick. Never really...

    A/C fixed! or is it?

    Okay, I know the can I have said 1 oz lubricant 11 refrigerant. I seem to recall the sticker said like 3 oz of lubricantbut that doesn't mean there wasn't any left in there. Besides that don't these things have a safety built in anyways? By the way thanks for the quick reply! I'm going to...
