    Downpipe question.

    Yes, I think you are right. I don't know if it was an ebay one or not, though...it's pretty thick gauge. Doesn't matter now though. The guy I bought it from refunded me. I'll just buy a new ddp here in the near future. Car is in shop for paint and bodywork touch-up, plus whale tail install right...

    Downpipe question.

    I have an unknown brand downpipe (which bolted to the elbow) and a full Blitz Nur Spec with test pipe. I want to replace the downpipe as it hangs very low and I want to get rid of the elbow as well. So I picked up this divorced downpipe used from a guy on a facebook group, but I should have...

    Weird Temp Gauge

    Mine was doing the same thing. I burped it. Changed Thermostat. Replaced Radiator cap. Checked overflow lid gasket and hose for spooge/blockage/leak. Flushed coolant system and replaced all the fluid. It still does weird things, like the fluid bubbling in the overflow bottle, or running out of...

    The Small Questions Thread

    Spent 2 hrs removing and messing with this (steering column surround) thing. What I learned....there are tapped holes in the steering column that do not line up with this surround. For the inside (top and bottom) pieces, it should take 5 screws. 2 of them are machine screws. 1 goes to the left...

    The Small Questions Thread

    Look where the key goes, and to the right. There is a good 1/2" gap there to the right. That doesn't move when adjusting the steering wheel.

    The Small Questions Thread

    hmmm, mine is a M/T. I don't know if the ones I bought were A/T or not, but they were all black. I guess I will continue to search and try to find one I know is from a M/T. What a PITA. Weird that the M/T vs A/T should matter since both have console shifters and not column, though.

    The Small Questions Thread

    Small question. I have an 89 5 spd. When I bought the car, the top steering surround piece was broken/missing over the ignition switch. I have since bought two different sets of column surrounds, both from 89's like mine, but they don't fit right? I know there were changes year to year, but were...

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Changed the left front caliper which froze. Wish I had ordered both fronts, as the bleeder twisted off on the right side. Lesson learned...right side caliper ordered.

    Losing coolant out of overflow tank

    I know this sounds pretty goofy, but I had the same problem, and found that the nozzle-holes on the bottom of the overflow cap were plugged with debri's and the coolant was pushing out.

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Cosmetic only....decided to tint the windows today with the help of my 17 yr old. I hate tinting but it does make the car look so much better IMO. It's not perfect, but didn't turn out too bad. (yeah, I know, I should have cut the grass lol)

    Horrible MPG, No Apparent Problems

    Last tank on my 7mgte I got 27.1. I was surprised it was that good for a 25 year old engine. That was on the freeway 2 hrs each way to a car show with the cruise set on 70. Stock except for Megan DP, catless, Blitz Nur Spec

    Ohio supra meet

    I'm not in Ohio, but live one mile from the border in NW Pa. I would be interested in bringing my humble Supra. What part of Ohio will this be?

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    Those TRD emblems I bought last year on ebay. They're not "real" but the quality was good, and they have held up a year so far w/out any weathering or anything. I bought a set of three. I put one on each fender too, to replace the generic WalMart Turbo emblems the PO had put on there. PO emblem...
