    The alcohol thread

    I'm partial to most cider, but my favorite so far has been Biddendens Strong Kentish Cider 8.4%. Not cloudy, but almost just tastes like apple juice. Place down my way gets in a small supply now and then. mmmm, getting thirsty.

    Cool, no worries. I've got Powerflex upper torque arm and lower engine mounts on order to stiffen things up. I may order new OE upper engine and gearbox mounts just to make sure they are in good health. Then I think for now I'll get the Toyosports manifold fitted with the rest of the exhaust...

    My 197

    Hey all, saying hi and introducing my 197 that I've had about a month now. It's got a few issues that I'm going to work on, and I intend to make a few improvements over time. Pre-cat rattles - It's going to have to be replaced or more likely removed (open to suggestions) Was thinking of...
