ok so I just bought these 17's from a mechanic at work, but they are a little small offset wise...but it was such a good deal that i couldn't pass it up (i.e. 200 bones for all four with brand new tires and tuner lugs included). Anyways they don't sit out as far as I would like so I'm...

well a buddy of mine has a CT26 which he claims has an upgraded compressor wheel, and since he doesn't have a supra he said I can probably just have it. But I'm concerned that maybe it isn't ACTUALLY upgraded, is there an easy way to check? I don't want to spend a bunch of time replacing my...

seriously that thing is a bitch if you don't have a lift and a huge metal bar. You guys have any tricks to it? The damn thing won't stop squeaking!

I am in the middle of working on my supra. I am trying to replace the cam seals but I cannot remove the cam gears. I don't have any special tools, nor do i have a ride to get to autozone or o'reilly's. Anyways is there some trick to getting them off without the SST? Another question when...

well, my radiator is cracked and going to be replaced soon, but it got me thinking. If the radiator is cracked that means the entire system is losing pressure right? So even a small leak in a radiator could cause overheating possibly after a long drive, as it loses pressure gradually. Am i...

i have a popping sound while i'm turning at slow or fast speeds. Tried searching but couldn't find much. I was thinking lower ball joints but maybe tie rod ends, what are some checks i can do to find out for sure what it is?

Got a new TPS from O'reillys today and the prongs don't line up with those on the TB, is this the nonturbo one or something? If you look up the part number (EC3147) on their website it says 87-93 Toyota Supra V6...lol. well here is a pic to help explain is there a way to adjust this deal...

i know it's kind of a stupid problem but it bugs me. Any ways the fuse is good so is there a way I can fix this? Or should I just replace it?

well, I've been trying to track down this damned misfire. I was testing all the coil packs resistance and voltage. The TSRM calls for .3-.5 ohms resistance for each coil pack and mine ended up being .9 ohms on each pack. Is this causing some problems?

I posted about a week ago that my car was making a vibration from the rearend around slowspeed corners and in parking lots. I opted to switch the gear oil out in the diff, and put in some Royal Purple. This made a huge difference, not only did it eliminate my vibration it also made cornering...

alright I've heard a lot of different opinions on gear oils. I've decided not to go with any specialty oils (i.e. Royal Purple, Redline, etc.) Anyways I'm going to auto shop class tonight and I wanna do my tranny and diff oils today, but I need to know what to get. I think I've heard mobil...

Well I was accelerating to pass the other day, and something burst my first thought was the lower radiator hose because that is the area that it is leaking immensely from. So I replaced that hose and no luck, it appears to be coming from underneath and behind the water pump. There is nothing...

When I turn at low speed my car starts vibrating, and makes kind of a humming sound. As the speed increases and I take a turn it isn't noticeable. It feels to me like it is coming from the rear of the car, but it is hard to tell. This only happens when I am turning, it does not do it while...

just as the title says power drops off noticably until I hit about 3k rpm and it starts pulling hard again all the way up without a problem. Mods are...3" exhaust (stock elbow), cone filter, and BOV. I replaced plugs, wires, vac hoses, set TPS, checked intercooler connections and retightened...

Okay, since the day I bought the car (about 5 months ago) it has had a terribly annoying misfire only during light throttle and only after the car is completely warmed up (on cold days sometimes the car won't get hot enough and will run flawlessly all day). The car always idles great, but when...

Ok so I usually have no problems with starting other than it taking longer than it should to start. But today I went to start her up to go pick up my new set of plug wires I ordered from O'reilly, and it wouldn't start. So I popped the hood, everything seemed in order, I wiggled my ground wire...

Well, I am finally coming to a finish on my autox car, a 91 RX7 TurboII, and will soon focus some cash flow towards the Supra once I put the finishing touches on the seven. I want to stick with the 7m engine with moderate power (350rwhp should do). It already has 3 inch exhaust straight...

everytime I start my car I hear a kind of feint grinding sound for about 3 seconds after the car is started and then it stops and won't do it again until the car is shut off and turned back on again. Is my starter getting stuck and turning with the flywheel after the engine is running?

if I replace my head gasket right now when mine is still running good should I have the head and block lapped still, or just leave it be?

is there a difference in timing belts, I just went to advance auto and got the only one they had in stock for like 19.99 is there a better option for this or does it even matter?
