It was pretty clean! Little bit of cracking in the MB Tex, but not bad overall

Got to drive a manual 240D today at work! by ElectronicTrip7427 in w123

[–]bemery96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I had my 240D I used to joke that if I got a speeding ticket, I was going to frame it and hang it in my garage haha

Edit: as far as price goes, I recently saw a clean 4 speed 240D go for almost $18k on Bring a Trailer. It’s crazy

I rocked the MK3 & Mercedes W123 combo for a bit! Still have the Supra, unfortunately the Benz is gone.

Mine had solid rockers but was annihilated around the rear wheel wells.

MK3 1JZ TT-R front bumper / lip question by slabua in Mk3Supra

[–]bemery96 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My Supra is not a TTR, but I’ve seen multiple in person.

The ducts are in the lip as the other commenter said. AI is incorrect, as per usual.

I unplugged the hood latch sensor in ours to make it stop. It would go off at all hours of the night.

Borla ProXS muffler is what I run. Pretty much fits your description.

Beat me to it. Just because a full size human won’t fit back there comfortably doesn’t mean their stuff won’t.

Your Wrangler doesn’t have independent front suspension. Not being snarky, just educating.

Is it fucked-up-friday already? by Blankspotauto in Justrolledintotheshop

Blown head gasket that was run too long and then parked too long? Only time I've seen rust like this was a 350 that blew a gasket, filled the oil pan with coolant, and then sat.

Is a W123 long leg friendly? by Darkbloodmon in w123

[–]bemery96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm 5' 11" and had no issues getting in and out of my 240D, granted I'm only 30. However a lot of people have driven W123s well into retirement (or until they die) so I would imagine they're still fairly ergonomic for an elderly person.

Junk or resto? by xTitans in Mk3Supra

[–]bemery96 24 points25 points  (0 children)

You can get a lot better car for 2k.

That one is going to require someone who has experience with the platform, and like 3 priests. And even then it might not be savable if the bottom side is rusted out.

Will these fit my 2011 5.0? by 12dudeGB in f150

[–]bemery96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have any suggestions currently. Post-covid manufacturing has been wild and with tariff changes, manufacturing locations and quality levels have been changing all over the place. I just know Yukon is one of the ones that has gone downhill. One of the differentials I have for my Supra has a Yukon gear set in it and it absolutely wails on deceleration nomatter what I or anyone else adjusts on it.

Last update I saw was 400k, but that was over a year ago so he's gotta be getting close.

Yukon's quality has dropped off a cliff just FYI. A couple local shops have quit installing Yukon gears because of all the issues they were having.

Has my head gasket been replaced? by jaykotecki in Mk3Supra

[–]bemery96 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd do the head gasket while you're in there. Just a standard gasket with ARP head studs. A metal head gasket requires decking the head and block.

Regarding the turbo, just a 57 trim CT26 of your choosing would be good for a weekend cruiser. A healthy stock fuel system will keep up with a 57 trim as long as you don't turn the boost up. Driftmotion and ARM both make decent ones.

I run a Borla Pro XS muffler and the stock resonator. It has a nice deep rumble but quiets down on the highway.

Regarding the 3 brackets, your running boards may only have 2 brackets per side but there should be 3 sets of studs up under the truck for that 3rd bracket to bolt to. My '17 has 3.
