    h&r with kyb gr-2 a good idea?

    This is a quote from Driftmotion: I ran the Tokico Blues on my SC300. They are a very firm shock and to me made the ride somewhat harsh. On straight, flat interstate driving however, the car felt like it was on rails.

    ARP head bolt torque spec a little high

    You'll need to get another HG too if you're going to pull the head again.

    Why do most of the MKIII owners not buy hood struts?

    The hood struts on my Lexus SC400 are getting weak. Will only hold the hood up when its warm. Oh...wait a tick. I rarely have to open the hood on my SC. 1UZ ftw!:evil2: The supe...well...the hood is open everyday just about, but with good struts!

    Hey SM! 92 Turbo coming out of hiding

    Welcome aboard! Please don't mod that beautiful car and ruin it. It's ok to drive it some. After all, it's a drivers car made for the road. If I were you I'd keep it...and keep it original.

    oil leak cant find source

    For Pete's sake do not go out and ruin your engine on purpose with the mentality of "Oh it will motivate me to build my other one quicker". It's just plain retarded. Dont' be that guy! :biglaugh: I looked at a supra a while back with intermittent knocking sounds. The turbo was about to go...

    Does it smoke any when you first start it up? My advice is to do a coolant system pressure test. http://www.benplace.com/pressure_test.htm
