    Converting pre-'91 door panels to '91 speaker grills?

    Has any one tried this? I have a 87 black w/ grey interior. I am buying a 91 parts car with the red cloth interior. It looks from my searching photos of both door panels that it might be possible to remove the metal bracket, that the speaker grill snaps into, from the back of the 91 door...

    What bellhousings will bolt to a 7mgte?

    First of all piss off. Tone it down - SC Second, if you think that anyone on this forum knows what will bolt between a 7M and a Toyota transfer case in a 87 4runner, you are fooling yourself. If it isn't a Toyota transfer case, then: THIS THREAD IS WORTHLESS WITHOUT PICTURES

    What bellhousings will bolt to a 7mgte?

    You are on the wrong forum. Go to www.yotatech.com. They are 4runner forum and this swap is fairly common. IIRC there is a version of the R154 that does bolt to the toyota transfer case. If you look at your 4runner's vin and tags you should be able to figure out what the truck came with...

    Problem getting car to start, '87 7MGTE

    Well, the shop gave me back the coppers I had in it so I will keep them as a spare set. I was wishing that the plug replacement was the solution to the problem, but now, I am sure there is something else going on. The fact that I got it to fire after sitting for months with 3 year old gas in...

    Project or problem?

    The BVSB is not your problem and long as all the vacuum lines are properly plugged. I'm sure someone will tell you that you engine is in extreme danger because the charcoal canister is not connected. Don't sweat the BVSB until you get the engine's blow-by figured out.

    Problem getting car to start, '87 7MGTE

    It is hot here and I thought that the cold start injector only worked at colder temps. It seems like a timing thing almost. It is so close to starting but just won't catch. Once running, it runs and idles perfect. It has really done this since I got it, only after cranking for a while, it...

    I have a 7Mgte with 5 speed, sat for awhile, got it running. Car is all stock. 94K miles. Recently replaced plugs and wires and fluids. New gas. Car always took a while to start when cold. Would crank at a fast speed for 10-15 seconds and then catch and sort of stumble to a start. Took it...

    Found rust on my car, should i sell or fix ?

    Pics of the underside of the hatch? I have seen many that have rust through on the underside at the bottom corners. If the only rust is the hatch, find a rust free one and swap it. Far better than trying to repair the rust through you have there. Trust me, that rust goes right through the...

    Super Monitor Help

    I don't intend to install different injectors or a different AFM or turbo. This car is stock w/ 90K miles and I will keep it fairly stock. I am even having the stock radio repaired rather than replaced. Does anybody have an idea about what inputs the SM uses to calculate fuel range and fuel...

    Super Monitor Help

    I have that one from the owner's manual, but I thought there was a self diagnostic one for the SM itself, to see if it is connected properly and getting the right inputs.

    Super Monitor Help

    Just got a Super Monitor from a forum member and I need some trouble shooting help. I was told it was from a 88 7Mgte 5 speed. My car, a 87 had the SM plug and mounting studs. The brackets for the computer were fairly bent and I had to try to bend them back into shape to get it to fit the...

    Buying new MKIII with a knock...

    If you are in Indiana, CHECK FOR RUST! Get under the car and check the subframe mount areas. Check the spare tire well. Check the bottoms of the fenders and around the wheelwells. Check for cheap bondo rust repair. Check the under side of the hatch. If you find any, walk away. How much of...

    a few rebuild questions

    You should be able to take the crank to any reputable machine shop and have them measure the crank. If need be, they can machine the crank for the proper clearance. They should be able to tell you what size bearings you need.

    I didn't realize this feature was on my car. Had to run out to the garage and try it out. Getting the lever to flip down was the hardest part. The wheel moved in and out with no problem!

    A/C Compressor clutch not engaging, possible A/C Amplifier malfunction

    My AC was not working, I could tell by looking that the compressor clutch was not engaging. Took it in thinking that is was the clutch or compressor. Shop put in freon and the AC works perfectly. I don't know how the climate control system knows whether there is enough freon, but it does...
