    exhaust piping/resonator recommendations?

    well... I have a good 3" DP running into a 2.5" exhaust :nono: so, yeah I would prefer to not have my car doing that :cool: I still have yet to pick the car up BTW (will do that on the 19th) but I DID ave a RSR exhaust lined up, till the guy just flaked on me (bothered to ask me if I could...

    What spark plugs are best in today's market?

    a lot of guys around here run autolite copper's... just get the correct heat range and gap accordingly.... they're cheap as dirt, and I'd change them myself every time I changed my oil. (that's what my friend CJ recommended.... he has a tuning shop and the only dynojet dyno here in Greensboro)

    7mge bhg?

    damn... sitting for 4 years eh? It's hard to say without haveing any first-hand experience running an engine that's sat that long without tearing it down, and at least checking clearances/replacing seals.... HOWEVER I do know that your fuel will break down over time... especially THAT...

    exhaust piping/resonator recommendations?

    oh, cool.... I'll have to look into that.... seems people like to make exhaust larger than 3" not so easy to get a hold of. (magnaflow's website only has relatively small/normal mufflers on it, but they make MUCH larger ones)

    exhaust piping/resonator recommendations?

    ok... So I clearly stated I wasn't made out of $$ and @ $90 for 1 transition (cheapest material)... it looks like it'd already be cheaper to buy ANOTHER BIC exhaust.... since my last one was stolen :( prolly just be cheaper to not change the exhaust at all... I know it'll help with gas...

    exhaust piping/resonator recommendations?

    well... the last 89 I had.... the interior literally rattled apart from my exhaust being too loud... so I know I want a magnaflow muffler... but would you guys recommend burns' resonators?

    exhaust piping/resonator recommendations?

    I'm still open to the possibility of buying an exhaust off of someone, but the custom rout is looking far more likely, as people are just too flaky and selfish these days.... I'm not made of money, but I'm not trying to do a poor job... are there any material recommendations or specific...

    A Sad day in the Supra World

    Oh man I coulda swore it was a 240 ;) PS: going out of my way to appreciate something I find to be absolutely atrocious.... not my style. For the record all of my cars have been 100% OE... I do have a Trial lip sitting in my room though...

    Sad day for me :(

    lol... this is almost true Sside.... on the other hand... my mk3 never left me stranded.... till I was stupid enough to somehow manage to re-wire my O2 sensor across my exhaust (WTF was I thinking?!?!?) more along the lines of wtf was I smoking (smoked a lot of green stuff in those times)...

    I remember the days....

    yeh I'll be honest guys my IQ is 165 I'm what could be considered level 1 autistic (think aspergers syndrome,) (that's why my social skills are complete SHIT), but I don't actually do any budgeting on paper, it's all just felt out in my head... (I would always do my math in my head in classes...

    What would your 1st hand gun be?

    I was about to buya remington 1911... although I like the ruger's a bit better (1911).... also USP .45 is a good possibility. I would be buying one of these (probably the ruger) if I weren't about to buy another supra. I can say I've shot an old 1911 and the handling/accuracy (even not...

    haha that's my father with an apple in his mouth :rofl: I feel ya, man. I wear shoes from when I was half my age (12) to work, and I regularly wear jeans/shirts that are close to a decade old :cool:. I'll give you a tip. I've gotten some nice jeans by going into stores in the mall on off...

    I remember the days....

    sounds fine to me... I'm sure the roads aren't that great. I don't really benefit from the govt. what-so-ever, unless you consider a show of force and pointless wars to be benefiting us.... sure traffic regulation is great.... oh wait, what am I talking about? our system is full of failures...
