What did you do to your supra today? Pics

[seoul4korea]

I sat In my old girl today. Up on jackstands still, pulled the Targa off, put my hands on the wheel, and remembered the mountain runs I used to take weekly.. the only thing I didn't do was make the engine sounds lol.

Next time pull up you tube and find some supra sound clips.

Ordered some StopTech cyro slotted rotors to replace my front rotors and some Porterfield R4S to go with them.... Everytime I brake I feel like my steering wheel was going to fall off so it was time lol.

Some dumb cunt in an accord pulled out in front of me on the feeder road of I-45 as I was turning onto the feeder going about 30-40 mph, having a little fun in that corner since my light turned yellow, this lady pulls out of a gas station on my right and i see her coming so I move to the far left lane thinking surely this lady isn't dumb enough to get in front of me. I was wrong. She is going about 10 mph and slowly merges into my lane in front of me and I firmly brake and hear my front tires screeching a bit from the ABS kicking in to save my ass and the TEMS suspension working beautifully to prevent the nose from diving. I slow down to about 5 mph and this lady just gingerly cruises to the on ramp of the highway, so I boosted by her and give her the finger. She came that close to ruining my MK3 thank you ceramic brake pads and ABS.

This is why we need air horns from old diesel trains under the damn hood.

Give 'em a damn heart attack when they pull this shit.

 

[Doat]

Hell yea train horns should be mandatory on sports cars

Right. Because snot-nosed zit-faced kids who have NFI how to drive even though they think otherwise never do dumb shit in cars...

Not sure what direction that was directed at. :icon_conf :dunno:

 

[Doat]

I must admit I am rather confused by that post as well. I don't do dumb shit with my MK3 because I love it too much to risk hurting it.

 

[Backlash2032]

Lol.. didn't you just admit to fucking around because your light turned yellow? Sounds pretty risky to me.

Well, I'm 43, not snot-nosed, not-zit-faced, not a kid, know full well how to drive, and don't fuck around with my car.

But self-centered, I-don't-care-who-hits-me-cause-I-gots-mah-insurance a-holes NEED a wakeup alarm to jolt them before they cause a serious accident.

Making a sound like an 18-wheeler on steroids at point-blank range would be just the ticket for that.

I should have mentioned that my light turned yellow as I was entering the corner and the cars were far away so I had plenty of room to make the turn and continue on my way even if I stopped.

Fixed my door locks as they were getting real stiff and central locking button wasn't locking them properly and got my interior dome working but won't last forever as the factory crimp/rivet through the plastic is losing contact :/

Just took the car on a 4hr roadtrip used bout 1/2 or so tank of gas, pretty good oh and the hubby reckons hes taxing my car LOL so not happening

This is what I did. Walbro upgrade. Still not getting the car to start. It started before this on stock pump. I tried +b and fp, to get fuel going, but nothing still.

what did you do to fix them?

 

[suprra_girl]

Can't look at the go prob till I get home so I can see bigger images of the install.

The locks were easy, I gave the locking motor and rods a good lube job, no not with ky

More serious nite, locking motor had a sealed boot, lifted it off and used crc/wd40/liquid wrench into the top if the motor and into the locking assembly inside the door and constant locked &unlocked door via motor. If you want to save life on the relay so its not constantly triggered you can unplug it, in my rhd its in my drivers door/rhs. (opposite side to mirror control)

Got confirmation from Driftmotion that my camber kit, brake lines and tokicos shipped, can finally cut off the alignment bolts and replace them all, do the shocks, put the remainder of the poly bushings in. And finally my suspension will be done.
Next comes the tires and my 5zigen gunmetal specials, then its time for new glass and moldings

 

[AnubisMK3]

lol.. well.. I was trying to figure out how this damn cell phone jammer fit into the discussion... then I saw.. "1 post"

Had to comment...


now.. how many of you are old enough to actually have eaten spam? (the real spam... )

I think spam is actually compressed fly torsos, not sure but my dad used to tell me that meat
in a can is never a good thing. I tried it once, way too salty to eat.

 

[Grandavi]

Ate it a long time ago with ketchup on bread. I bought it once to annoy the wife.

 

[jdmfreak]

I have a couple cans in the cupboard... A spoonful fried till crispy and scrambled with eggs is really good as far as the supra goes I found my extra knock sensors so I will be replacing my broken one and hope that gets rid of my code

 

[jetjock]

I'll eat it on occasion fried as a side with eggs instead of bacon or ham. It's something like the national food of Hawaii and some other pacific islands due to the WWII connection. On the menu there in McDonald's, Burger King and many others restaurants.
