    so... in light of one of my previous threads... I just wanted to say

    What I was tought long ago is to NOT swerve when it comes to small animals, you're more likely to damage your car by going off the road than the damage the animal will do (and even if you swerve, you might hit fido anyway)

    so ive decided...

    You WANT weight in the flywheel for launching from a dead stop, it's the entire point of it being as heavy as it is.

    Yep, but that requires removing the end of the arm. When the car is on the alignment rack, it's sitting on it's own weight, and the cams are manipulated to get it to align. Yours would require jacking it up, removing the arm, turning it, reassembly, and then checking. It's still not going to...

    Is my brake master cylinder dead?

    Maybe true, but a vacuum bleeder is cheap :)

    Time for struts...any low budget mods to consider?

    Top 3? 3 KYB GR-2/Tokico Blue (both OEM suppliers and both about the same) 2 Bilstein 1 Coilovers :rofl: People will argue back and forth about the tokico and KYB's, but I've been in both and it's not possible to tell the difference (unless it's a TEMS car with Tokico Illumina's in it)

    Headlight and lighting/mirrors

    Rodel used hella 90mm units with an HID conversion in them, not anything from the retrofit source.

    Are you saying you replaced the bolts that hold the arm on and eliminated the cams? Really, you only need to adjust them once, and make fine tuning with the stock cam bolts.

    Don't mess with the endlinks in the back unless you reinforce the tabs on the suspension arm.

    The difference between GL4 and GL5 is that GL5 has the friction modifier already in it...

    Thinking about 2uz swap in a 89 mkiii

    1UZ is cheap and can be made (almost) bolt in since people have already done the hard work for you. Until someone does the same for other engines, it will be the easier V8 to run :(

    so ive decided...

    Supras will never be light as they were built as luxury GT cars. Just the subframes are a huge chunk of the weight. Keep the creature comforts and increase the power, it's easier (and chicks will still want to ride in your car).
