    head gasket

    If it is annealed or warped to a certain point it cannot be fixed. Stay away from this guy, you are only going to dig yourself deeper. Talk to supra rich (posted above). Rich is a great guy, and knows what he is doing. I would send my stuff to him before letting a local machine shop touch my...

    clunking noise, suggestions?

    Check your u-joints first, they are alot cheaper and easier to replace than a rear end. This must be done with the car in neutral. If its in gear and there is any load on the driveshaft, you wont be able to detect any play. If any of the u-joints have any play, thats your problem. Take the...

    245 45 16 fitment question.

    Bad idea. Drifter often run skinnier tires on wider rims to minimize lateral tire shift on the rim. Doing the the opposite would have the adverse effect. In the simplist terms, when you turn left, the tires will smoosh all the way to the left before you actually start turning left and vice...

    Overheating, weird though I have to say...

    They're called electric fans, not magic fans. They draw current from the electrical system, which im assuming the OP did not upgrade. Running e-fans on an underpowered electrical system at idle is like trying to use a screwgun with a dying battery, it spins but the torque just isn't there...

    head gasket

    File it down? Fuck him! Thats a major fuck up. As CyFi6 mentioned, torquing the head down on that likely fucked up your head, potentially to the point where it can't be saved. Dont let this guy touch your shit anymore. Letting a fuck up try and fix his fuck ups will only result in more fuck...

    MA RI supras

    Channel locks if you don't plan on reusing it. A strap wrench will be sending unit friendly but I'm guessing you dont have one of those in your tool box.

    Is Supra right for me?

    4 K will get you going. If you are wise you will spend it on making it run right, instead of making it go fast, that comes later. Plan on spending more down the road and be prepared to have alot of down time if something goes wrong. With the supra, when you have an issue, it needs to be...
