    where did you find those on the bottom? EDIT: did you just find that pic or is there a site? I would actually order those.

    Facime's Mk2 build

    very very nice, I like it a lot. Even though I don't like when the cupholder is buy the radio or CC controls... I understand why you went that route and it looks really good.

    beautiful eastern washington!

    I'd take a high res of this one: http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y60/evanescent27/025.jpg I'll photoshop it lowered :P You're coming over tomorrow to work on those springs, right? I think we can manage without a spring compressor...

    pulled over, need help!

    I hope you're just joking. Both my g/f and brother were there too. Because of him being incorrect (on both accounts) I got out of a ticket for not having my proof of insurance up to date.

    CNC career advice

    I <3 the Mori Seiki we have. If it were up to me I would only run that. But I'm 2nd in line to the guy that taught me what I know haha. Maybe they'll go pick up another one for me to run all the time :) A guy I used to work with went and got his own Haas too and he's doing work...

    CNC career advice

    I 'kind of' work in a machine shop. I lucked out really and my job is perfect for me. Went from production floor monkey for the company, then got into test development, then into CAD work for that department, then finally a split between CAD/CAM work and building stuff in the machine shop...

    pre 89 lip

    Correct. The bottom of the bumpers is way different in shape. The pre's taper in toward the front where the post's are much wider at the front of the bumper.

    pulled over, need help!

    I second that! I had a state cop pull me over for basically no reason. Said me front parking lights were too white (lol ok). He then proceeded to check my other lighting. Had me hit the brakes, turn signals, reverse lights. He then came back with a ticket saying my back up lights can't be...

    2jz-ge-t + gt4088 = under 6 grand budget...

    Hood pins look rice if the rest of the car looks rice. They can have a positive or negative effect depending on what direction the car has already gone in :) Personally, I just prefer the stock latch because it's more secure. Also, I hope I'm not having to open my hood so often that I need...

    1UZ Supra swap

    Sounds damn good imo! Nice nice work. Good info on the weight too, thanks.

    I thought police had to have a warrent to search your car without your permission. Doesn't looking under the hood count as searching? Or is this a different situation because it's about car mods? Still doesn't make sense to me, oh well. Best of luck with keeping the fines low!

    2jz-ge-t + gt4088 = under 6 grand budget...

    I'm no expert on air flow either but it seems like the scoop you made won't do much of anything IMO. Slight amount of drag is about it. As was mentioned, under the hood will be positive pressure from the air flowing thru the front. That SHOULD be enough pressure to cause a pocket of air where...

    The people's car - SupraMania.com 7m build

    I wish I lived closer. If i could help with the project I would be all for donating time/money. As it is though, I don't have nearly enough money to donate to a car I'll probably never see. Great work so far and I think it's really cool that you've done this and it's actually working!

    saw blade makeover

    Supra28 - Know what I noticed about those that made them hot? They were lowered ;) The rims were ok tho

    It glows.....

    I thought of the turbo thing before. I would only want to try it with red/orange tho, not sure how hard that is to find. There is a Grand Am around here that has reflective paint on all his emblems, it's kind of trippy/cool but looks out of place at the same time. DT - I'm surprised you...

    I like that it's a well put together video! Quite a bit of thought had to go into making something so ridiculous lol

    saw blade makeover

    IMO a polished lip with a black wheel only looks good with a much larger rim (18"+). The black sawblades are 'ok' but only work on some color Supras...some should just be kept silver or white.

    Post your Pre-89 bumper thread

    Color match the moldings and get a CF hood...THEN I would like the look of the fixed headlights. Don't get me wrong, you did a fantasic job, but IMO they need to blend in somewhat like the stock headlights do.

    What do you think of this supra?

    The car isn't HORRIBLE but it is ricey imo. I never could understand why people would do body mods but not lower the car or get wheels that fit :\ ONLY because mine isn't done yet ;) Nothing against Randy but with any luck and a shit ton of time/work mine will look even better. His car...
