    What size are the plastic clips for the plastic strips in the door jam.

    Those clips are part of the door sill cover... they don't come by themselves.

    Which bolts for a R154?

    Helps if you post what engine you have... If you have a 2J, you use the 2J flywheel and pressure plate bolts.

    Universal Molding

    No chance... this was years before things like digital cameras and the internet. I don't think I even owned a film camera through most of that time.

    DECELERATION - Clutch ENGAGED or NOT?

    Truth... the Kumho V70a that I'm running now makes ZERO noise, before, during, and after it loses grip entirely.

    Should I use Copper Spray on Metal Gasket?

    Shouldn't be a problem. I've cleaned copper spray off before... wasn't the easiest thing to get off, but it is by no means the toughest thing I've done...

    Universal Molding

    The universal stuff is flexible, no need for a heat gun. The biggest challenge was finding it in the right width, and making smooth end cuts.

    Alternate Location for Cruise Control On/Off Buttons

    It's *plastic*. Cut it off, tape up the wires, continue with installation.

    Should I use Copper Spray on Metal Gasket?

    Guys, he's not talking about the head gasket. Reading comprehension owns you. ;) IMO there's no need for copper spray on the turbo gaskets - they don't need the same level of seal as the cylinders, not by a long shot.

    Streetgasm Twins - Supra & Skyline

    lol - love the way the skyline is going the wrong way in all the underground bits. Other than that, the most impressive bit has to be the traction control, filming that on wet streets must have been interesting.

    Universal Molding

    I did this on one of my Mk2s, back in the day, and it actually looked pretty damn fine. It was a bitch to get the edges but smoothly to match the angle of the doors, but other than that, it worked great.

    DECELERATION - Clutch ENGAGED or NOT?

    Same kind of thing on the 7M, although it might be running a small amount of fuel... not enough to read better than 20+ AFR on the wideband, though.

    DECELERATION - Clutch ENGAGED or NOT?

    While true, this is also why it's a good idea to match RPM while downshifting - less wear on the clutch.

    There's a small O ring on the oil dipstick mount, too.

    402,000 mile supra

    I've brought this up a few times over the years... my first Toyota was a 1982 Celica with a 22R inline 4. Most of the same tech as the Supras of the day, minus the fuel injection. I drove that car to the limit, and retired it with 995k miles on the clock. Furthermore, I retired it because it...

    DECELERATION - Clutch ENGAGED or NOT?

    I'll say this... I don't like putting more wear than necessary on the throw bearing in the clutch assembly, so the times that my clutch is in are extremely limited.

    Mustang guys are talking crap

    And you drive an 87 turbo in what kind of shape, and with what modifications? If you're pointing out that your 23 year old tired stock Supra can't keep up with a new Mustang, well, in other news, the sky is blue and the ocean is wet.

    Hard to start after radiator explosion?

    Have you checked for codes? What exactly do you mean by a radiator 'explosion'? Did you get coolant all over your engine? If so, did you clean out the spark plug valley? Did it overheat? If so, did it pop the head gasket at the same time?

    You do realize that you cannot just replace the clip? Seat belts are basically one piece...

    Nice. This is why I don't trust mechanics. PS: Fixed the link in the first post.
