    Hello, all. I have a 1986 Nova Star with the fiberglass shell. If I use FRP, I am creating a second vapor barrier, correct? Does anyone have suggestions for other bathroom wall materisls to avoid moisture and mould growth, especially from condensation inside the wall? Is this even something I should worry about?

    No don’t worry about it. 

  2. Not sure if this helps. My son lives in Okinawa and is into old Subaru’s. He has bought them from a website named Goonet Exchange, google it. They are very good to deal with and from what I can tell it’s like a Japanese website that caters to dealers putting their inventory on and selling to individuals. The website has many many vehicles and may have something you’re looking for.

  3. I didn’t use Luan for the backside instead I put foam board and spray foam. Then FRP over it and screwed that to the studs etc. My goal was weight reduction and movement, these rigs get bounced around the road and from time to time I venture into the northern Maine woods on logging roads etc.

  4. I'm thinking it may be leaking past the glass/frame seal into the frame itself and out one of the screws in the bottom holding it together, running to that bottom corner. If it is the pane/frame seal, how would I go about repairing it or locate parts rather?
       I had this issue as well, the rubber gasket can be replaced, I would add silicone to it before installing, obviously only on the side that is stationary.

  5. Ditto, know as much as possible about the truck, that’s half the fun with these. The other part is just heading out on an adventure. I’ve been 2000 miles from home in some remote places with ours, takes me back when I took off from

    home just out of HS in an old truck and found my way up near the arctic circle in AK, man I didn’t know what I didn’t know back then and what an adventure!!

    I'll come back to one of my original questions re: an Upgrade.  Anyone know if my 3.0L 3VZ-E throttle body can be replaced with another, more modern Toyota throttle body, one that is still actually for sale?

    I don’t believe that you will find any of the newer, 2.7, 3.4 or 4.0 will fit.
