Atlas, is that the Grant 761 wheel with a TRD horn button? If so did you use the Grant installation kit or did you buy a hub? If its not where did you find the wheel? As others have stated that looks damn good and if it is the grant it is like 3 times cheaper then the Personnal one i was going to get.

Discovered that after 2 days of perfect behavior a coolant leak has sprung from somewhere on the back of the engine. Damn.
Check the hose above the EGR cooler it goes straight up then bends toward the passenger side. I had a leak there because I didn't tighten the clamp enough.

Thanks for the compliments guys! Today, I got my crank bearings in. Will be doing a swaybar endlink install on my buddys evo ix, so I'll have to wait until maybe tomorrow to start. OR, I could forgo my Friday night plans and work on the Supra... I think Supra :biglaugh:

It is exactly that, Grant wheel w/TRD horn button, which is why I was thinking it might not be everyone's cup o' tea, especially purists, but it's all good! I used the Grant installation kit, I think I still have the part# if you're interested. Funny you mentioned Personal Steering Wheels, I had one a couple of months back, before I got the Supra. I gave it away thinking I would have no more use for it, since my current car is a 2010 Camaro. I really wish I didn't do that. The Grant wheel is great for the money though, but because it is a 5 pentagonal bolt pattern and not 6 hexagonal, as most aftermarket wheels are, the hub is proprietary and will only work for other grant wheels. That is the biggest drawback, but it's steel a decent wheel, and less expensive and better quality than the Nardi knockoffs that some people I know that have unfortunately got suckered into.

Hopefully have fixed the rear hatch leak, was minor but was getting too me. Also replaced the spark plugs and put my new cam covers on, was a great day the whole family was out

Prepare to see a better one! Although not sure if it counts as aftermarket...

Meh... try again. :p
Damned good for a stock wheel though, I've always threatened to steal my buddy's wheel in his Corolla. :p

Did you have to gap those spark plugs? what heat range are they?
Plugs should always be gapped, just to be sure that they're all the same. ;)

Still need to get one for my car...but I keep getting distracted by stuff like this, and it's not going to get my car on the road any sooner!

As for the Iridiums, they strictly say to not regap them.

This thing, not unlike yourself, could probably have a full length documentary made about it! :biglaugh:

I've heard it is a bit more difficult for whatever reason, but I would at least check them to make sure they're uniform. You'd be surprised how far apart I've seen "pre-gapped" plugs.

Put a set of eagle wheels wrapped in kumho tires on. I bought em used just cause I needed new tires and wanted to get rid of the sawblades.. I think they look pretty good. I'm not sure if I want to powdercoat them bronze or not..

I was thinking of getting a set of mustang rims for the supra, but nobody was selling the kind I liked and these came up for a steal of a price. 300 with tires! And two of the tires look damn near brand new. The other two have about 50% life left.

Next up is fixing the damage that damn pt cruiser caused. -_-
