    WTH Forest Green 87 MA70L ???

    I stand corrected. My knowledge tends to be limited to USDM due to my hatred for the JDM Tyte Yo! culture.... IJM and Quicksilver are the two rarest MKIV colors (here in the U.S.).

    WTH Forest Green 87 MA70L ???

    It's not a factory color. If the car is a 204, it came from the factory Black Metallic. MKIV's were the only Supras to ever come in green. They came in two green colors: Deep Jewel Green Pearl (6P3) Imperial Jade Mica (6Q7)

    Doomsday Preppers

    FTFY. But - I agree with your overall sentiment. A gun should never be aimed at something that you don't intend to shoot, so even IF it malfunctions, it shouldn't hit anything. The shooter is an idiot. However, it's worth noting that if you handle guns enough, eventually you are going...

    Catalytic Converter Install Question

    I've always added them just after the DP. Quick question, if you're using a 3" high flow, why do you want to leave it off? Do you run leaded fuel? The 3" high flows don't restrict exhaust all that much - you probably won't see too terrible of a spool difference.

    I don't think the Frankenstein style things that go on in there would qualify as "cloning". I should make this IJ's avatar:

    Doomsday Preppers

    Honestly? The advertisers... The American public eats up that shit. Jersey Shore? The Kardashians? It sells. Showing sane people doing sane things might be accurate, but it wouldn't catch the attention of the average schmuck. Sex it up, or crazy it up enough, and you'll get the dumb (m)asses to...

    Is this a good first car?

    Well I was assuming a proper car, you know one with an engine in the front and the drive wheels at the back. ;) Miata may be the best starter car out there.

    *Project sideways supra*

    Faster shifts and the clutch disc itself becomes nearly unbreakable. The springs on sprung hubs sometimes get torn up on very high horsepower applications.

    *Project sideways supra*

    Unsprung hubs are very hard on transmissions. Without the sprung hub, the shock delivered on shifts to the tranny is pretty brutal. They can be driven safely with proper rev matching and techniques, but they really put a lot of strain on the whole drivetrain.

    Is this a good first car?

    Very much so - excellent 1st car. As I mentioned earlier, there's a reason why Skip Barber uses them as their beginner car. Ditto. I started with way too much power and I've paid some heavy prices because of it.

    Possible ignition break up issue?

    Could be a lot of things. Coils, igniter, bad ground, bad plugs, air leaks, weak electrical (alternator/battery) etc... Best bet is to follow the EFI diagnostics procedures in the TSRM that start on page FI-49
