After seeing mkiii's with 19" wheels and tires I think that's the way to go. Looks great! Does anyone know how wide of tire and at what profile (35's, 40's etc) you can go on a mkiii without getting into rubbing the inner fenderwells or other problems? What affect might this have on handling and...

I've been told (by a very qualified source) that an N/A intake manifold flows significantly better then a stock Turbo intake manifold. Anyone else ever heard this? Has anyone got a N/A intake manifold to turbo set-up? Pics? Or info on setting this up? What kind of problems might one expect to...

Has anyone ever converted a hard-top mkiii to sportroof? I see alot of junked mkiii's with sport roofs that I could buy for next to nothing. Since the sunroof in my 87 could use replacing I have been wondering how big a hassle it would be to go ahead and buy a sport roof (and all related...

I got this metalic sounding rattle coming from somewhere near the passenger rear wheelwell. It's really hard to place where it's comming from and I've almost crashed countless times looking backwards while I drive trying to locate the source. I've checked all the obvious stuff (I think)...

I've been reading through the threads and there seems to be alot of different opinions on the 1/2 turbo swap. Can someone who has done the swap tell me what I need (exactly) to do the swap? Is there a thread that already exists or a how to... maybe w/ pics? I'm getting ready to do this and I...

Anybody ever strip a headbolt or the threads on the block? I haven't yet but I have to retorque my headbolts (stock toyota) after changing my headgasket (so far so good) and I'm wondering how tight I can torque them. Right now (or at least when I put the motor together) they are at 82lbs. How...

My Supra is occasionally (under acceleration) slipping into neutral where it should be going into 4th (O/D). I got a code 63 and 64...#2 shift solenoid and lock-up solenoid respectively. So I pull the trans pan check the solenoids and they seem ok (per TSRM test). I put a new filter on it and...

My speedo cable broke and the O/D light started blinking and then my car started slipping into neutral after the shift to 3rd gear and its an automatic???? Could the speedo causing errors in the speed sensors etc. be doing this??? HELP!!! Anybody who has experienced auto trans trouble please...

:cry: My speedo started bouncing around for about 5 seconds and suddenly went dead. I figured the cable broke so I bought a new one and proceeded to install it. Cable went in smoothly enough but when I was removing the old cable where it enters the transmission a little piece fell out that...

:1zhelp: I am getting error codes 42,63,64. Just before I started getting auto trans error codes my speedo cable broke. The number 42 code indicates #1 speed sensor...could this be related to my broken speedo cable? Also how big of a deal is it to repair or replace speed sensors and solonoids?

My diagnostic terminal on my 1987 N/A doesn't have the same abbreviations as the terminals I've read about or seen. I need to check a code because I'm getting a blinking O/D light. I've looked at the threads and the pictures but my diagnostic terminal is laid out differently. If you go from...

I've got a 87 N/A with aftermaket, intake, exhaust and a few other minor mods and I was wondering if anyone knows what would I gain (if anything) by replacing my n/a injectors with turbo injectors? Or would it just run rich and burn more gas? I just happen to have a set of the turbo...

Does anyone know of a custom shifter made for a Mkiii w/ automatic transmission? The stock unit looks like it came out of my moms stationwagon. Not so much a performance issue as much as an asthetic issue. Has anyone ever tried to adapt a B&M auto shifter? They have a short auto shifter that...

:1zhelp: I just finished doing the top end of my 87 N/A supra and while on its maiden voyage to my girlfriends I got off the freeway and the auto trans didnt want to engage. I pulled into a gas station and realized my transmission was gushing ATF (sounded like a radiator leak). I got under the...
