I'm trying to figure out what this part is on my car. Its on the factory air intake hose, looks like a little bell and has a hose running to it. Don't have a camera right now and I've looked at all the diagrams I could find and can't find it. I'm just wanting to know what it is and whats the...

The past few weeks I've been noticing that my car has been shifting from first to second kind of rough. Its also been stuttering in 2nd gear. Its intermittent. Some times it happens others it runs great. The other issue just happened tonight, I went and grabbed a pop and was on my way home and...

I'm finally getting my own garage so I can start a proper rebuild on the car. My question is, I want to swap to a manual transmission. I'm shooting for modest power, 325-350 horsepower. What I want to know is what gear ratios I should use for the best fuel economy. I love the car but it is very...

I'm thinking of getting a set of sets from andysautosports and what I was wondering, does anyone know of a cheap bracket that will work with our car, its 1990 model Supra. Thank you

Christmas is right around the corner and I have my wife and daughter taken care of and now I'm thinking I'm going to get a new turbo. http://www.suprastore.com/ct26turup.html is what I'm thinking of going with. The question is am I going to need to do any internal upgrades for it and possible...

Has anyone ever seen this happen? I was out looking for a vehicle for work and noticed a awful smell and saw my temp gauge rising. I pulled off as quick as I could popped the hood and saw my alt belt was broke. Well I got a ride to a local parts store, got a new belt and had it up and running in...

My speedo has been acting strange the past few days, well today it quit. I pulled the cluster out and saw that the needle on the end that connects to the cluster was broke, it was a green plug. Anyone know what the replacement part is for that? Its a 1990. I looked online and there where so many...

I haven't done any mods to the car since I've had it, just basic tune up stuff to get it dependable. Today I purchased a k&n filter, the drop in, and did the sogi cai mod. The car feels so much more responsive. I mounted the hose slightly under the factory ic piping. It sounds so much different...

I have the push button control, everything is working fine except for the position buttons. They don't like to work. Any one know how to go about fixing them? Also, I saw a video on youtube of a guy who changed his lights and put in some in the climate control instead of the old funky green...

Yesterday I was driving on a awful road, felt like a up hill slalom. I was taking it easy since I didn't want to go over a cliff and die. Anyway, it was a 80 mile ride round trip. When I got back to the office I smelled coolant burning. First thing I do is think bhg. I pop the hood and see...

I have a 90 mk3 turbo. I pulled the interior out when I first got it and noticed it has a sub that looks factory on the right hand side. Does anyone have the wiring for this?

When going up a hill or under any load the exhaust smell is awful. It literally brought tears to my eyes and I had to pull over. I got home and checked for codes and none were showing up. I know my exhaust needs replacing but should it be so awful smelling? The next thing I'm going to do is...

I was working on the car today, trying to get my trunk latch to work properly and noticed the rear struts have two plugs not plugged in. I looked and the tems controllers aren't there. They are pricey on line. Just a sad day.

I'm leaning towards a clogged cat but just wanted the opinions from some seasoned people out there. When under load, the car has a god awful smell, I wish I could fart like that, its enough to gag you. Its a rotten egg/sulphurish smell. Its not all the time, only when going up hill or high rpms...

Todays the first day I've actually put any real miles on the car. I decided to take to top out and take it for a drive. I was on a country road, paved, going to my Moms when I noticed a serious vibration through the whole car. I thought the rear end was going to fall out. I drove to a gas...

I looked at the comparisons between them and have decided on the one to buy, my question though is are there any standalone kits for tubing to replace the black mess we have now? I just want to dress it up a bit. Thanks.

My boss has been busting my balls as of late. The main reason is that I used the company credit card to purchase office supplies instead of the officemax.com account we have. The reasoning I had in this was that it saved us 1300 for the order instead of wasting it. Today I had a meeting with...

I have never owned a turbo anything before, well I had this little dog one time, pretty sure he was on meth, but anyway, what I was curious about was the factory boost gauge. When idling, if I rev the motor it shows no boost being made. Is that normal? When I drive it shows boost fine. Again...

I removed my bumper so that I can sand it and prep it for paint properly and have noticed that the factory intercooler has overspray from whomever did the paint job before. My questions are 1) will this hurt anything? and 2) if not could I repaint it to match the color I'm going to be painting...

So I have finally saved enough money to get a good exhaust on my car. Here is the problem, I caught my girl on the phone upset to her friend that she couldn't afford a dress she liked. The dilemma is, do I pamper my car, or get the dress? I feel the dress would be the better thing. So with that...
