Earl going into winter mode

A brief overview of Saturdays autoX event then switching the car into offseason mode by taking the aero and race tires off and performing an oil change.

You should use a few bits of square tube and make a shelf to fit in the middle of the 4 post to hold your oil pan.

I had a sea foam green 92 Tercel that my grandma passed down to me when she passed away. Needless to say I was a teenage boy and it was my first manual car. It wound up straight piped and I had a huge 5” tach in it. It had a scored piston and would easily burn about a quart a week. It still got 35 mpg through all the 90 mph pulls and 1-2 no lift shifts and that was even running 15w40 shell diesel oil for the hurt piston. I miss that car.

been looking to upgrade to poly bushings for my tercel, Ima get powerflex for the rear but also want to do the front, do any of the tercel's that you own have poly bushings on them?, its that idk which ones to get from superpro cuz theyre different (both seem waaay too big to fit on the front control arm rearward bushing bracket on my tercel) nice

I have some Poly graphite front bushings custom made from a custom batch made like 15 years ago and in the rear beam I have Siberian bushings

@@garage79r whats your opinion on siberian? are they nice?

[@garage79r]

@jouseff_1293 they are pretty great but they are not really a performance replacement more like a longer lasting OE style replacement...consider it OE+. On the rear beam I did not want a rigid bushing because it needs to deflect and twist a bit. My Yaris has full Siberian bushings all around and its great.
