Good. mechanic likes the car. said it's very good and shouldn't cause much trouble for a while, but refuses to work on the turbo itself when the time comes to replace it, but will work on everything else. But now, I'm having second thoughts on getting the car.....cuz I mean ~18mpg mixed driving...

hey cool. you're in Houston. Maybe i'll see you around town. oh yeah, :ttiwwp:

oooh. i didn't know that. yeah, it's a turbo. mmmm 45 minutes before I go check it out again.

If you can elaborate on the distributer cap thing, that would be great, because the car'll will be getting inspected by my mechanic in the morning at 10.

http://health.msn.com/print.aspx?cp-documentid=100119940 I thought some of these were kool. I'll give'em a try when I can if I remember them at the moment.

Please do elaborate on this.

thanks for the vote of confidence. i really appreciate it. when i mean work on it, i mean hands on. I'm more of a hands-on person or at least with some detailed visual aids, than I am by reading things. When I read things, eventually the words get jumbled together. I'm pretty sure this car's a...

well, the thing is, the mechanic is a bit biased against the car. he says it's problematic and people sell it pretty much ASAP when a problem arises. I'm not really confident about my way around the MK3 to know what to look for when it comes to the oil pressure (gauge) as I don't know of anyone...

hahahah. freakin' awesome. Anybody want in on the SupraStick (patent pending :p) idea? Someone should really make a commercial like that when they have some free time. the first time i went to go see the car, the dude had another piece of board in the car. I had no idea what it was for, but it...

a lotta people go for the '93+ (or was it '94?) MR-2s because they upped the suspension pieces and something else that I don't remember off the top of my head. you can try searching around www.mr2oc.com.

hahaha. good plan there weezl. i should try that. thanks for the info. the interior is a bit torn up both passenger and driver along with the rear seat where the sun hits it. maybe can deduct some of that...I don't really wanna go crazy with the car just yet though. keep it at stock reliability...

i liked those cars when my brother-in-law had one, but i didn't like the uberly small engine bay that you had to work with.

for the current problems? i suppose it is. I'll see If i can get them to drop the price though due to the oil pressure thing. the body is straight. could use a bit of a paint job, but it's not that bad. the hatch needs a special touch to close. I'm just really concerned as what to do about...

Yup. I had mine for Marvel vs. Capcom 2, Capcom vs. SNK, Rival Schools (or whatever version it was for dreamcast) and a couple of others that I don't remember off the top of my head. After that was stolen, I pretty much stopped playing games for a while....

I think we had one traded in at work the other day, but I'm not sure if it has been sold off since Saturday night. Those things fly off our shelves fast. As soon as we get one, it's sold almost that same day if not the next. I'll find out tomorrow if we do though when I go in for the NCAA...

well, this one car i'm looking at, the oil pressure gauge reads that at idle, but begins to go up as you start driving. you can find my thread here. http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=22669 no one has yet to respond with a legit answer as how to fix that problem and i kind...

what do you do if it does read zero at idle?

that one?

what can I do about the oil pressure? what is it supposed to be reading at idle? should i also get a compression test done on all 6 cylinders? is there anything typical that i should be expecting to replace soon aside from what is listed above?

I don't remember if this is the right spot for this to be here, but mods, feel free to move where necessary. There's this MK3 Turbo i've been looking at for the past few days now and I'm wondering if it'll be worth the $3800 asking price. Specs: -'90 5-spd Turbo Targa. red with grey leather...
