Kind of... it was just the rear window trim though, not all the seals.

Usual suspects (in order from top to bottom) include: - Rear wing seals - Rear wiper seal - Lower window trim bolt holes - Hatch seal - Power antenna seal - Tail light seals

Well, if you want the best, Porsche makes a Lithium Ion battery for cars. It's small, 10kg lighter than a standard battery, and costs €1,904 http://green.autoblog.com/2009/11/23/porsche-announces-lithium-ion-starter-battery/ If that's too rich for your blood, the spiral cells are a good...

Yes, it's a different plug. The power antenna is a standard plug, the hatch glass antenna is a modern GM style mini plug - you can get adapters for it for a couple bucks from any stereo install shop. Reattaching the defogger leads is a pain, but it can be done. Pick up some rearview mirror...

I don't recall the power antenna details any more, mine's been gone for a long time. I just use the one in the rear hatch glass now. As long as you're not in bumpkin land, it provides more than enough reception.

If you have a membership at supraforums, see if you can talk to zazzn, he's a mod for the Canadian section over there. I'm pretty sure he's done this.

Personally, I favor running it outside the car to the rear, then putting a new hole in the floor. I just pulled down the existing cable run on the driver side, put my cable in there, ran it over the rear subframe, over the top of the fuel tank, then through into the hatch near the license...

There are a few critical details left out here as well. 1. How did you check for boost leaks, exactly? 2. Have you checked for codes?

I'll also mention that car companies tend to take advantage of the grey areas - I wouldn't be in the least surprised to see Toyota putting, say, 50th anniversary editions out in widely separated time spans to boost sales.

IMO, no. The three pairs of lights by themselves are going to be close to too much, the heater fan removal doesn't give you much headroom, the AC removal doesn't affect it significantly at all (the only electrical component is the clutch on the compressor), and the bit that will push you over...

It's a rather large pain to do. There are several requirements... - move the pivot point on the lift arm - cut down the headlight bezel - find and mount lights - most are going for separate high and low beams which leads to another thing... - rewiring to support separate low and high beams...

Agreed. I've been attacked by a German Shepard. I have scars on my arm where he bit in - through a heavy coat, no less. However, I went for medical help afterwards, the dog is worm food.

Last I checked the diesel versions can't take the higher EGTs generated by a gasoline engine. The only company to put these on a gasoline engine is Porsche, and much as I applaud them for it, I also know that they are perfectly capable of telling their owners that the turbo is a wear item and...

Toyota should take it back if you ask them, and they'd probably be happy to order the other one. Did you order the 89+ and you need the 88- unit?

You can sit on the passenger side of mine anytime. Bring your own depends!

Last time I ran a GTR he was seriously shocked. :)

No contest Kenny, you're going to surprise the hell out of some poor Audi owner.

It *is* so for Ford. Look at some real numbers... take the 80s, for instance, just because that's the age our cars came from. Average cars: Year / Model / Price 1980 / Regal / 6119 1980 / Celica / 5964 1982 / Escort / 5189 1984 / Cavalier / 7171 1986 / Colt / 4999 1988 / Taurus / 9996 Average...

Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as: - Knowing when to...

Not an introduction... moved to Mk3 general. Have you drained the fuel tank entirely yet? Or is it possible that there is something floating on the top of your fuel from the 10 year sleep, and it only affects you when the fuel level gets low enough?
