    W58 ---> R154

    Chicago Meets???

    I was just wondering if supra owners in Chicago or surrounding area ever meet. I think it would be bad ass to fly down 90/94 with a few other supras. I've seen a few around, so where are you? BTW most of the mkiii's that I've seen around look incredible. And I really just want to check out a...

    Clutch/tranny problem...need help...

    Maybe your master cylinder took a dump. But since it won't engage at all, I don't know how to test for it's fault. One more idea would be to bleed the system. If you have air in there your clutch will not engage. It sounds like a weird problem to have, especially with a new clutch assembly...

    HOLY CRAP! Got NAWZ?

    Those are not used for car performance. They are to enhance one's "senses" or to impair them altogether. Sorry but the kit is for "whippies" Read the disclaimer under the large picture, it's funny. Maybe it's me, but it's over an american flag... What a country!
