Hello gentlemen. I'm Ilya, also known in various circles simply as Russian. Currently going to school in Fargo, and the plan is to graduate in December.
My junk is all slow - '73 Buick Estate Wagon, '87 Toyota 4runner, '95 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme and a '91 Dodge Stealth R/T TT that I'm working on selling. Also in the herd is the girls '67 Lincoln Continental Convertible, as well as some bits and pieces for a someday hotrod and a couple motorcycles. I dabble in pretty much anything with an engine and wheels. That's really about it. -
Welcome! Love that Lincoln, restore that thing!

nice 4runners... lets go muddin'The blue one was my daily until we had a little accident. White one is a parts truck I picked up in DL and flat towed down to Rochester. Currently building a new engine for the trusty blue one, as after 275K the timing chain is stretched and it was feeling a bit weak when I took it to Vail last winter.

My buddy has a black 1g Stealth with 13g's and has a REALLY bad 3rd gear. Ordered, I think, THREE JDM "good" trannys and they were all junk too. All problems aside, they have some seriously linear power with the 13gs. Supposedly, the motors make more power with the same mods as a 2JZ, so they aren't all bad. Just a BITCH to work on lol

I miss my 4runner already.. Still my favorite generation of those trucks. Super functional and comfortable as hell.By far my favorite all-around vehicle so far. I'd like to go with a supercharged 3.8 some day, but I absolutely refuse to give up the stick - and that poses some problems.
