    My control arm uppers look decent. I dont know if ES can be reinstalled to new ones later if these ball joints do fail though. Its $70 a arm on eBay for the cheapest ones. From what I read the uppers last a while. 150k mile maybe a while tho

    suggestions on what to do with 87 supra na

    well right now it seems that 2jz go for cheap, and 1jz some times cheaper. but if you want simple and super cheap you could get a 7mgte to bolt right in and plug right in. if your after idiot proof and big power it seems that the 2jz like to do that, but there are some diehard 7m's that put down...

    the plugs in the 238ci chevy my roomate has are honking compared to what i know as well. it was a fun project to get running after sitting in a field since his mom graduated. it look lots of kroil and patience to break free the motor. only one cyl was low after we messed with it for a while...
