in Knoxville there's quite a few, but they don't come out that much. I'd say most of them are on this forum. There's a lot of rogue FB's and FC's running around too.

I'll give ya that Knox, people do drive crazy up there. Especially me

If people are down with it, I'd like to have the meet on a Sunday afternoon since it's a lot less crowded then Saturday.
Thanks. I didn't know the person that well, but my mother and her were very close. It was hard on her. All good now though.

I'll try to make the next one

Nothing wrong with 'em, I probably would've ended up driving one if I hadn't found my TII. But I've already got too many cars and too little money. As for shops, I don't typically trust shops so I dunno. I pretty much assume the worst until someone credible tells me otherwise.

haha the smoke itself was clutch and a popped vac nipple on the stock TID. Im taking it easy right now though, siezed up the left rear caliper, so a new caliper, rotors, and pads for the rear and some red caliper paint go on tomarrow or friday. New boost gauge almost fully installed, lacking a pod and teh wiring harness, so stuffs going smooth.

I got the supra info, guy that asked me about it is on the same forum, and we talked it over the other night, hes thinking about it.

Wow, poor clutch! Good luck on the brakes. If they're anything like Supra calipers then it should be really easy work. I'm trying to take it semi-easy on the TII... I've got a clutch fluid leak sooomewhere, but I have seen no fluid coming out anywhere.

Cool deal, if he has any questions or he wants a test drive gimme a shout or have him PM me on Supraforums.

Alright, I'm fed up with not having heat/air.

Anybody willing to help me out with my air conditioning/heater or know somewhere to go to get this **** fixed. I thought my logicon was shot so I replaced it... nothing. I need heat!!!!!!!!!

What exactly is going on with it? Is the blower working at all? Maybe the heater core went out. I haven't had to deal with this *yet* so I can't give you much.

Story on this month's meet if anyone cares - I haven't tried planning one at the Dragon because I have two sevens leaking clutch fluid now and no money to fix either of them or really do anything until I can sell my Supra. If you guys wanna still plan one with out me, feel free. What's everyone been up to on here?

I spotted a TII at Best Buy the other night. It was a black 87 kinda like Knoxse7en's... it had S5 tailights and a RB turboback like Knoxse7en's... it even had Knoxse7en's wheels. Any idea whose car that was?

I've used 2 different logicons so I don't think it's the logicon. Basically, it acts like it has no power. Nothing happens when I move the blower switch. No click, no door sound thingy, nothing...

I've checked the breaker and replaced the logicon. I'm not good at electronics so I'm kinda stuck.

Okay... well why don't you grab a voltmeter and see if that shiny new logicon of yours is getting any power, that'd be my first step.

This whole process would be a lot easier if I knew anything about electronics. Any... hints... as to which wire(s) to test?

Edit: Why the hell is one of the logicon plugs near the windshield. Worst... design... EVER!
