    New toy. :)

    That's cool! Now you can go 1JZ without admitting you can't build a reliable 7M.

    990 HP supra dyno

    12.70???????? This being the reason I only want about 400hp. I don't need a huge dyno number, or any other penis enlargement for that matter.

    Hate Crime? Yes or No

    It was "tough guy" proving himself against geek. That's the nature of most "tough guys". I see no color in this proving. As said previously, there were more white students on the bus prior to him. He waited on the "geek" that was easy prey. The second "tough guy" must not have been so tough. He...

    Subscribed! This looks like it will be a very entertaining thread. Welcome to the Mania.

    ForcedTorque's Slick/Quick Build

    I am feeling a good bit better this morning so far. As for the turbo, it may be fixable, but not by me probably. If I did it, I'd always worry about it coming back apart. It definitely could be coming from the coolant lines. The spray is coming at a weird angle for the head. My hardlines are...

    ForcedTorque's Slick/Quick Build

    This will be a very somber post! First, the last time I drove the car, it had a coolant leak somewhere behind the turbo. I can see it shooting a stream very near where the IC pipe going to the turbo. I new several days ago that I'd have to get under it to see where it came from. The weather has...

    What have I missed?

    OK then......I bought FSTOY's shell, and transferred all of my parts in an attempt to have a car all one color. Black bumpers are now in the paint shop

    new carpet?

    The previous owner of the Frankenstein shell I just donated to Jugodegolf appears to have gotten the stock interiors carpet, and glued it down over the top of the stock carpet. It fitvery well, and made for very comfortable carpet.

    cleaning my engine bay?!?!

    So many horror stories start right here. Leave the hood closed for now, and clean things up whenever you take the motor out, and have it apart. You'll get there, trust me.

    What have I missed?

    Joe came back, for a while, but not quite the post whore he was! Many other long timers mysteriously aren't posting much anymore.

    57trim woes.. in need of experienced wisdom

    Congrats on the car! I think this thread should show everyone who reads it in it's entirety (like I just did), that there is no better customer service than what you will get with Aaron at Driftmotion! I've seen it time and time again, and experienced it personally in the form of advise...

    My first car!

    My sincerest of apologies DT. I've never really done anything with other cars, and I guess I thought of it as a build or for sale section for other cars. I'll try to pay better attention next time. I kinda thought of this thread as a useless chatter thread, so I posted it off-topic.

    ForcedTorque's Slick/Quick Build

    No problem George! I didn't want that car to go to scrap, and you didn't deserve what happened to you. It being a 3E5 89, just like yours, made it that much easier. BTW........Video now has a little music

    91 supra blown engine.

    ^This! Your profile says you have an 89, and your screen name is 91. If it is a 91, you'd be a fool to let it go cheap. If it is straight, you should definitely not part it.

    My first car!

    I was just rummaging through the first 400 Down on the street cars, and found a very good example of my first car. It's a 68, where mine was a 67, but otherwise really similar. Mine had air shocks, not shackle, and was not so beat up on the front. I had all of my lug nuts, and aluminum 5-slot...

    Diabetes Thread - Do you have it? In the family?

    If your Dad has it, you could use one of his test strips to check your blood. Just be sure to not have eaten within the last couple of hours.

    Diabetes Thread - Do you have it? In the family?

    I try not to drink very many of the energy drinks, but when I do, I drink the sugar free. I have actually monitored my sugar while using them, and seen a drop in blood sugar when I drink them. I would assume that that is caused by the extra activity, caused by the extra energy.

    Diabetes Thread - Do you have it? In the family?

    Matt, Laura is correct. Your symptoms are similar to a low sugar situation. A soda should not trigger that. In fact, the soda is a liquid, so it would raise sugars quicker than the candy bar. I don't remember you being close to 250 at CHI2K7. I stay close to about 225 on a 5'9" body. I'm...
