    What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend?

    SWEET! Are the seats "plug and play?" My seats, in great shape, seem to have lost their lower back support, so I would be open to this swap.

    Mine shipped out yesterday. JF is really a great guy to work with. Quick to respond, and very helpful. Long time Toyota hot-rodder. I'll be anxious to see how this bad boy works.

    OBD1 reader app, temp

    Yeah...so....I guess this gets moved to the top of the list for things to buy. Best to just include it with the cost of baselining the 80. This is a really trick little device...me likey.

    OBD1 reader app, temp

    Question about this little gem, Is it simply a Bluetooth "dongle" that plugs into the OBD1 port on our cars? Download, the app, and away you go on your Droid phone? Good God....if that IS what this is, it's already "late" for being bought. Where have I been? How have I missed this? Here I...

    Paranoid about heat

    Rad is new, unknown origin. OEM rad cap (indicator of good MX) PHH will be bypassed upon coolant baddline. So will take a peek then for any leakage. OBD 1 sensor, Bluetooth and app have just now gone to the head of the class for purchase....thanks a lot....my wallet just started quivering...
