Nice looking collection there! So does the Supra downpipe bolt directly up to the stock exhaust?

Default update

the transmission and my rear end needs to be replaced. i replaced the clutch, master and slave cylinders and it fixed the chattering problem. but there is a lot of play in the transmission. for instance if i have the car in gear and the e brake pulled i can move the drive shaft about 1/2 inch forwards and backwards.
Another issue is after my exhaust install there is a bit of white smoke that comes out the exhaust. it mostly happens when i come to a stop, as far as i know the smoke is white because i haven't let anyone drive the car to get a look at the smoke. i cant really get it to smoke in neutral revving it. i think it might be the turbos because they are loud and whinny in my opinion. i think i am going to buy a wideband just to be sure
