    Interior lighting issue

    Now if I can just figure out why the alarms is not arming. Leaning toward the drivers door switch since I can unlock it and the switch works, but when locking it nothing happens. Also the drivers side lock switch on the door panel will unlock but not lock properly. So my gut tells me the alarm...

    Interior lighting issue

    I had already did a search, but the main thing that comes up is "the rivets" which relies on the vanity mirror lights still working, which they didn't until about 2 minutes ago. Not sure what I did or what the problem was, possibly a bad connection though. I removed the dome light and checked...

    Interior lighting issue

    I recently got my 86.5 MKIII back on the road. All the interior lights work properly except the dome light and lights on the visors. Does anyone have a clue as to what could prevent the dome light from coming on at all? Another wierd issue is that when I first got the car around a year ago...

    Another motor another rod knock day.

    This sounds quite familiar since I replaced the rod bearings in my 7M-GE not more then a couple weeks ago. As for them being matched to each cylinder, I actually doubt it UNLESS you have the crank reground, which may be necessary. You might be able to get away with just replacing the bearings...

    It seems as though the alarm is not activating when I lock the car, so I think one of the sensors is bad. I know there is one on each door which I plan on cleaning this weekend, but I do not know exactly where the others are to check them. Those that said not to worry about mods right now are...

    Well, so far I'm LOVING this car. It was definitely worth the work I have put in so far. Even the cruise control still works. I'm not to sure on the functionality of the stock alarm though. I think there is a bad key switch. I plan on trouble shooting it this weekend along with the...

    I talked to my father since he gave me the car about 6 months after he got it. He had changed the oil in the rearend and replaced the brake booster & brake fluid then no longer had time to work on it. While the engine was out I also replace the clutch, pressure plate and bearing. I plan on...

    Unfortunately, in 86.5 there was not a turbo model of the MKIII :cry: They released it in '87 model year I believe. As for the suspension, once I know it is going to stay on the road, I plan on lowering the front around an inch and the rear probably 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch so thats when I will...

    I recently became the proud owner of an 86.5 MKIII Supra... but... The car had been parked and left sitting for atleast 13 years. According to previous owner there was a slight knock when it was parked, and the cat had been cut-off and stolen. I pulled the engine, replaced the rod bearings...
