Hey guys, could somone please check their coolant resivoir and post up if there is a hose at the bottom of it? If so where does it go. If you could take pics it would be even better. Thanks for any and all help.

Hello All, been a long time since I have been on this site, I didn't know where else to ask this without being off topic so I thought the OT area would be a good place. I am 90% certain I want to gut my factory interior(MKIII 1986.5). My debate is how to go about selling the parts as I...

Hello All, wanted to get some suggestions and ideas from everyone, I am debating selling my supra after the painting process is finished. I have a list of everything done(off the top of my head right now). I don't have pics yet, however I wanted some suggestions on what price range I could...

Guys, for anyone reading this, this is in reference to a sour deal capital one made me. I want everyone who is thinking about using capital one to make their next vehicle purchase to understand what happened to me so you don't have to suffer the problems I did with my recent car purchase...

I feel like I should be pinched, the Supra presidents the #1 title in my heart. I love them and everything about them, however in highschool(only 7-8 years ago for me). I about died to get my hands on an older fox body 5.0 stang. Needles to say reality hit me very fast and I never had the...

WTF??? is all I can say, the first few eps were pretty good and help my attention. The last two(counting tonight). I'm dissapointed, along with the fact there is a season finale next monday? WTF??????? Is this like an 8 episode teaser before next fall starts it's seasons up? Or is this...

Yep, I was dumb enough to start sanding my entire car down a few weeks ago and I'm just about finished with the sanding process. It's only 1:00pm and I'm about ready to pass out, wow I'm tired. Most of the body has been gone over with 400 grit and a DA air sander which was fun and easy enough...

Pretty self explanitory, prefer cover to be removed. I'm looking at the alternator connection specifically. Seems to be just a wire I want to verify if the prior owner didn't rig this up, or did Toyota really half ass this one.

I've been doing a little here, and a little there. So lately it was time to pay attention to my engine again. I syphoned out nearly five gallons of old fuel and filled her up with five gallons of fresh 93 octane, plus a complete fuel cleaner(just to clean the tank a tad). She started right up...

Hello, basically fabricating a low budget intake system for the ol GE motor. I quickly realized if you remove the air box and install an open cone filter, you will loose two of the mounting locations to suspend the intake properly. Your only left with the bracket that attaches to the AFM...

Does anyone know if the OE paint on the MKIII is lead based?

Is it possible to run the Ct20a's on the 1JZ? I'm currently researching a 1JZ swap into my MKIII, for some odd reason I'm obssessed with using twin's vs. going to a single turbo for power. My long term goal is dependable low 400rwhp range.

Hello, so let me try to be as descriptive as possible for this, I did a search and came up empty handed so far. There are wishbone looking springs inside the rear brake calipers. They are there for one reason or another, well one broke on me last night while removing the old pads. They...

Hello, I installed a Grant Wheel with Grant hub adapter and wheel adapter. Install was fairly smooth, I even modified the horn following some instructions I found on SM last week. Horn doesn't seem to want to cooperate, and I figured that was no big deal...my turn signals however, I could...

Hello All, Although this is not my first post, it is my first post that is after reading the "Dealing with the Oldschool guys." I felt a bit compelled to drop an intro at that point. I have had the fortunate luck of aquiring an 86.5 n/a with BHG, and needing a Timing Belt replacement along...

Well, I just finished filling up my radiator with a 50/50 mix and i tried starting my car after I put the engine back together. I found a few misc leaks(drain cock on block was a tad loose and the FPR as well on the fuel rail). Noticing that fuel came out of the FPR both front and rear of the...

Hello, I've been trying to do research and can't find too many answers for what I'm looking for. I would like to change trans and rear end fluid soon and wanted to get a general idea of what my best bet is. IE for example In my 02 Eclipse i use to run 2/3's BG Syncromesh and 1/3 Redline MTL...

There is a coolant hose under intake runner number 3, does anyone have a clue what it connects to? I'm trying to put the final touches of my engine back together and for the life of me I cannot recall what it goes to. I'll try to find a picture.

Hello, currently almost done rebuilding my 7MGE and had a question concerning the fan/clutch assembly that attaches to the water pump. I replaced my water pump and still have the fan and clutch assembly attached to the old water pump. It's a B*#%W# to remove since it's an 86.5 and I'm...

Hello all, I'm in the process of reassembling my 7M after an HG job and cleaning, painting a few parts in the process and doing minor upgrades(nothing serious unfortunately). I stumbled into a question, does the alternator bracket fit behind the a/c compressor and between the block? Or...
