    some sort of fitting on the frame rail? undercar? wtf?!

    what type of fitting? you mentioned fuel fitting, is it a banjo-style fitting, but with no tube leading off of it? sounds odd... maybe someone injected something into your chassis and that's plugging it? i'm being serious now by the way... am i just imagining this or can you get some...

    some sort of fitting on the frame rail? undercar? wtf?!

    it's for filling the in-chassis tank which is used for storing helium...to make the car lighter. ironically most people don't know it's there..... :sarcasm:

    COOLEST MK4 Auto shifter!

    that would be funny as hell in a ricer... use it for a nitro button. heh..it would be neat to rig it up so you had to hold a specific button combo to start the car, then tap one of the main buttons to actually start the car. well i dunno if I'd have one but yeah...

    will these wheels fit my supra?

    hmm cool. thanks. I might look into some mustang rims. however now i'm not even concerned with new wheels anymore as I might have rod knock. If I do I'm not sure what will happen. I might have to sell the supra.... :(

    will these wheels fit my supra?

    oh yeah i totally believe that... and the tweel...is that the one with little rubber fins inside the tire rather than being supported by air?

    OK so I'm investigating this knock....tips? anyone have this symptom before?

    Ok, first of all I take care of cars. its only got 111k miles on it. The previous owners, come to find did not take very good care of it. I know it takes 10 seconds to check my oil. I do it all the time. and i run a quart over. me letting it get low isn't the case. previous owner? hell...

    best RC 1:1 vehicle EVER!!! quite arguably the best RC ever, period. http://youtube.com/watch?v=D8eAb_yOJlU i wonder if they actually made it RC? anyone know? I remember once i got into RC I made a point to rewind and look to see what brand of tx he used for it. Futaba, naturally ;)

    will these wheels fit my supra?

    i think it also helps in a straight line too...a sidewall that flexes a bit (not enough to notice like on a drag radial though) would absorb acceleration and deceleration better than a small sidewall, that may cause loss of traction rather than absorbing some energy into the tire..... so the...

    Which colors to change my website

    i think a darker less kiddy color is more fitting. black, red, navy or royal blue... i like red and black because that's what SM uses :P but yeah, i'm not really liking the light blue a lot. makes me feel like i'm on one of my friend's livejournal blogging pages. it's a bit to "bubbly" for...

    OK so I'm investigating this knock....tips? anyone have this symptom before?

    A friend is letting me bring my supra by his work tomorrow to listen to it from underneath to pinpoint a knocking sound...and before I go, I had a question about my knock. I'm afraid it's rod knock. However, another member thought he had RK and low and behold it was his...
