Congrats on the new car skim. My name's Eli and you can usually find me at the shop. I'm the one in the red mk3. Let me know anytime you wanna cruise. By 2 weeks, we should have all the cars that we're building ready to go cruising, but for now there's about 3 of us that go out all the time. When we're all done, there'll be about 10-15 mkiii's

Yeah Skim, congrats on the new car, that was a great buy. Believe me you will love that car. Like RTA Supra said, there are a few of us out and about all the time, but in a few weeks there will be many more...Right now I am down with a blown headgasket on one, and electrical issues with the other. Keep in touch, we will meet up, or just stop by the shop sometime so we can see anything you may do to the car.

Cool, Maby you guys could advise me (and do the hard work :biglaugh: ) I am interested to see what it would cost to get my 89 to 400HP (or more) I am not a mechanic, I build computer Networks and do Vinyl graphics for cars. It is my daily driver so I need to keep it reliable. What do you guys think.. whats my next logical upgrade.

Probably your best bet skim....I just blew mine, and we have 2 other 7Ms were are putting MHG in. Get that done first, one less thing to have on your mind.

Hopefully I'll get down to your guys shop soon. I meet you guys at your open house. I'm in citrus county and have a non-running 88T. Kinda broke right now but when i get some money together I'm bringing the MKIII down to guys.You guys seem to be the MKIII experts.

JMD, just to get it straight..........Those are the upgrades that you HAVE or just ones that he suggested?

Everything on the list are things he allready added. I believe he mentioned the gasket was metal but I am not shure. Oh and do you have a trick to stop the targa top from leaking? It does not leak ALOT just a little in the corner of the drivers side front and both corners on the passenger side. Toyota wanted 380bux for replacement seals and I heard they are a noghtmare to change. I will give you guys a call who should I ask for? and are you there on weekends? I work m-f 9-5. It sux but It pays the bills.. :biglaugh:

OK hope to see you soon!!
