I have the kill switch installed, I just need to re-wire it to be track legal (it kills the ground right now). Look at the upper right hand corner of my rear liscense plate, you can barely see it in my sig. It's on my list of things to do. I'll do it at the same time I re-do the power cable that's running around my engine bay.

Bad news, I went to refill my diff tonight and when I removed the fill hole bolt it fealt very loose (torqued very low), and when I tightened the bolt I realized that the threading in the diff is stripped 
Time to get something better.

How's the diff fluid smell? Diff and trans fluid smell so awful. My driveway still smells like trans fluid .

30 gallons??? That must have sucked just cleaning it up, let alone the smell.
Just ordered the oil line kit from Driftmotion. I gotta pull off my turbo and unbolt my manifold so I can bolt it back up (the 3 small nut are very tricky to get on and tighten, gotta do it a special way due to tight clearances). Aaron at DM sent me instructions last night on how to do it.

Bad news, I just discovered my manifold is missing the bracing it's suppossed to have, so I gotta send my manifold back to Driftmotion and he'll have the braces welded on and make sure everything else is good on it. Shit happens, especially when you're a very busy business. A+ to Driftmotion (Aaron specifically) for their awesome customer support and help.

I'm going to take my Supra up to Randy's (BIC) shop (well, have Daryl do it) in 3 weeks and have Randy install and tune my turbo kit. I'm sick of looking at it and my pile of parts.
Got a little bored so I decided to see what my HID's look like at night. Since the motor isn't running only 1 HID will operate. Here's a before with both Halogens on and an after with only 1 HID on. Quite the difference.

Ok ok ok! I'm going to make another stab at it myself, just gotta get past bolting on the manifold and I'll be good. 2 of the lower nuts are refusing to thread on, so I'm going to do a little modifying of the nuts to get them on. Wish me luck!
Side note, my ATE Superblue brake fluid arrived today. If I can find a local place that sells it I'll be very happy since this stuff is like $11 a quart and shipping was just as much.

Got a replacement cam gear cover Friday and took a stab at re-wiring my fog lights so they are independant (gotta fix my crossed wires still).
Hey honestabe.quick question from trinidad. Are the taillights interchangeable on the 2 models in your sig?

Thank you. To answer your question, yes you can put the 89+ lights on a pre-89. Do a search in the general MKIII section for 89+ taillight conversion
Thanks dude.
Purchased a pre 89 2 wks ago, and just planning in an effort to budget the upgrades.
Parts kinda difficult to get in Trinidad and by extension, the Caribbean, but the light set is available from a friend so just wanted to know if to purchase or not.
good stuff + info here tho.
I will continue to monitor.
