1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Oh yeah. Turns out aggressive looks aren't the most important thing in a tire that'll spend 95% of its time on pavement. Who knew?

No worries about the Kenda. Pay it forward if you can--maybe some neighborhood kid can use it to do some sick skidz.

 

Think I forgot to post this. The new daily. Well, soon to be. Waiting on new wheels and tires first and need to do some maintenance work. And remove the fugly yellow tint.

 

traitor

 

Hoarder.

 

indeed.

 

At least this runs and drives.

 

All but 2 run and drive.


Just 2 not safely

 

I Drove this home. 116 miles at 80-85mph. Safely. Even with that stupid camber and dry rotted tires.

 

Meh

 

At least it's not a BMW.

 

New recall on the supra. Bad ecu program can damage the braking system.




How much more german can it get?

 

My buddy is stationed in Japan and picked up an Altezza RS200 with the 3S-GE and 6 speed manual. He got it off a friend who was getting something else. Will be interesting since he wants to try and bring it back stateside after. But the US won't consider it an IS200... and it's a 1999.

Looks like I'll be in for a weekend of trying to figure out the power steering issue on the 100. Started howling during the last 100 miles of the trip. Found the problem once we got home. Fluid level is ok. The fluid looks unusually dirty/burned. Installed new rack, hoses, and reservoir about a year ago. Scratching my head about the fluid color. First guess is something is obstructing fluid flow to the pump. The hoses from the reservoir to the pump seem to be trying to twist up from some abnormal pressure of vacuum when the pump is running. I think I will pull the reservoir first to look for some type of blockage.

 

Big want, minus the rust

 

Congratulations!

 

@Wulf you said you really want to take on another project right now, right?
