Over the last week or so, I am truly seeing signs of Supramania becoming a Community. I am all the sudden seeing several cases of one Supra Brother helping another, because "by God" he owns a Supra! This is a spirit I hope continues here. Check out these examples:
1. Reign Maker is nearing completion of his new monster motor when the machine shop informs him that his head is just not gonna be able to make it. Seeing that Jake has had a hell of a time with his machine work, Rakkasan steps in and donates a head to the project from across the state. Another offer was made as well but logistics weren't worked out quick enough.
2. Kwnate has clutch trouble at the PACNW meet (wish I coulda been there), and Seamus Donates a clutch and a gang of members break out the wrenches and take care of it. Go read the PacNW pics thread, it's great reading, and for those who can't read great pics too.
3. I just read Jonathon1's thread about his new tail lights. They were Donated by Weezl. And they look pretty damn good too.
4. Audioman81 has been parting a car for a while. Now he has started a post of almost all give away stuff. There's some decent parts left too. There is a rear end from an N/A. Not sure if it's LSD, but all N/A's had 4.30's (right?)
5. Boosted wrecked his beautiful car. And before he could get over it, he was offered a smokin deal on a body for the motor swap. Check out his build thread.
There are 5 quick examples of a REAL Community taking shape. I know there are plenty more. I am SO proud to be a part of a community like this one, and I hope the trend continues. I'm not suggesting that we all just start giving away everything we have. Hell, I do a lot of selling myself. But, if I see a Supra Brother (or Sister) in need, you can bet your ass I'm gonna help the best I can.
