May 5th, I got in on the Koyo radiator group buy.
Old radiator out (this is now on my fiancee's brother's Supra, his cracked):
Electric fans on new radiator:
Slides right in!
Plenty of space to spare. :)
While I was at it I washed her and did another quick photo shoot...
Did my first oil change on March 28th. I'll probably want to do it again before I move to Arizona, as I don't know where I'd be able to do it there.
Full synthetic Mobil 1 0W-40 oil.
Oil drain valve. Should make the next oil change easy. :)
Aluminum jack and jack stands as it's too low...
I'm pretty sure it's when you spin the tires under acceleration and the wheels "hop" on the ground instead of spin more smoothly.
A1 has traction bars I think.

I would recommend recirculated unless you are planning on getting a MAFT-Pro or stand-alone to do tuning soon.
The Random Technology (RT) downpipe is very good quality. My [future] brother in law has one on his Supra. It sounds like it bolts up to the turbo elbow, so you should consider a high flow elbow too (at least eventually). My downpipe (Cooleeze) included that section so that it replaced both...
You should be doing heel-and-toe. At least for racing. When you aren't on a race track you're probably not always wanting to be downshifting for every corner, but you may decide mid-corner that you need to downshift.
Your friend is wrong. Matching revs by tapping the gas puts less wear and tear on the clutch. Also, when done right it disrupts the car less. This is particularly important if you are downshifting in a corner.
There are some exhausts that have a more stock look and aren't as loud. I have the HKS Turbo Sport Exhaust on mine and it really isn't very loud and you wouldn't know it wasn't stock if you didn't know Supras.
