Anyone know where I can get a QUALITY 3" turbo elbow with 2 bungs.. one that the flanges are not warped?? Car is in shop.. and I dont really feel like paying them to correct it... its a turbo elbow... can it be that hard to make? lol

most of you are probably familiar with the Aeromotive AFPR from Driftmotion. Looks like a slick kit and from what I can tell should be an easy plug-and-play option. http://store.driftmotion.com/static/i-afprkit7m-gte.php So, the question is, with the above kit, (considering a bit of bling...

Okay.. I am looking at replacing my hatch cable (its busted somewhere near the end piece). From what I can see, I have to remove the driver's seat, rear seats and almost the entire rear interior to access everything correctly. Anyone done this that can verify I am not going to do a lot of work...

Just wondered if some of you with more experience tham myself could tell me what I should expect from my recent purge of funds from my wallet... 57 Trim CT26 Turbo (not here yet.. from DM), HKS 3" catback exhaust, no injectors/intercooler/afm/bov changes. Got a HKS Boost controller being added...

Couple questions for those that know. 1. Is a full 7MGTE gasket set useful on a 7MGE? I'm thinking the seals/gaskets should all work on either engine as its the head design and the oil "path" that is different (I could be wrong) 2. I just bought a 1990 MK3 with a 7MGTE and auto (not sure of...

Did a search and couldn't find this, but if you replace the Calipers/rotors and pads on a Supra (front and rear), if you overtorque the calipers, will it cause the rotors to warp? Curious because the owner of the 90 I just bought said that was why the front brakes shudder when stopping...

I have a Lexus AFM (LIPP) Housing and will just reuse my electronics, but I plan on putting on a 57 trim CT26, 3" exhaust (full from turbo) etc.. (no upgrade to Intercooler yet). Currently running a MKIV Denso fuel pump intank. I was going to go with 550 cc injectors, but I think I might be...

Got a question... pulling the engine from my 87 Supra and just finished a battle (and the car is winning so far).. The 3 stud bolts are removed and I can move the exhaust up and down on the studs about 1/8th inch, but cant pull the exhaust off. Tried wedging, hammering, etc.. and cant do it...

In regards to the Quarter Window (the tiny triangle window at the side of the hatch), I removed these to paint the car and am now putting the originals back on. Is there something I should be doing to seal these? I notice that they are bascially tightened and it looks like water is going to...

Just wondering, where is the light feed for the rear marker light.. or is it non-functional on 89+. I am thinking I may have to cut my 88 tail light wires and rewire them into the 89+ Khouki tails I have. Maybe the lights were wired external? I have 2 empty markers right now in the back and...

I have an odd question, my 7MGE (from a 90 Cressida) is being put onto an engine stand for me to redo the seals, etc.. Now, its a 1000 lb engine stand on wheels, and has a 4 pt connection system (kind of an "H" configuration). If it would help, I can post a pic up, but I think someone here...

Just wondering if anyone has solved this issue. I have the Spec - A rear bumper add ons and they create a "pocket" behind the rear tires for dirt. Has anyone put in a "liner" to block off that area? Hoping someone has tackled this already. Thinking I might go to the wreckers and pull out...

I am redoing the heater core in my car right as it comes out of the body shop (after I get the 87 MKIII out of the garage.. lol). Its a 88 MKIII and I looked at the shop times for this. Its rated as a 9 hour R&R.. yikes. So.. I am wondering, prior to pulling everything apart, is there...

I bought a 89+ bumper from Shine Auto and also some smoked signal light covers from the forums. Now I have a tiny problem.. Is there an easy way to put 89+ signal lights on my 88? I have 2 sets of them, however, the brackets to attach them are different (the metal bracket under the front...

I just had my Shine Auto Whaletail fitted on my car (getting very close to paint time) and am wondering what the people who already have one on their car have done to prevent the edges of the whale tale from rubbing off the paint on the upper quarter where it sits and is unattached. I didn't...

=========================================================== ADDING A STATUS TO THE TOP Current status of the Supra: - Rebuilt 7MGTE (RCTS) with Wiseco Pistons (.50 overbore) Polished crank and rods - ARP Headstuds, Cometic MLS headgasket - Lexus (LIPP) AFM No longer used - AEM UEGO Wideband No...

Odd thing.. I just replaced my gas tank and I believe it came out of a 87. Did the seals, added a MKIV Denso fuel pump.. cleaned it all up and pressure tested it. Can finally hold a full tank of fuel.. lol QUESTION is.. the gasket at the top of the fuel tube (plastic piece with a rubber seal...

I just bought a 7MGE that was in a Cressida, swapped into a celica and pulled from that. I will be compression/leak down testing it next weekend, but want to see if I am covering all the bases here. I plan to: Replace the Oil pan (and gasket) with one off of my 87 Supra 7MGE (the Cressida...

I have read a lot in here and think I have a tiny grasp on my suspension and what I want done (and I do mean tiny.. because the techincal aspects carry a lot of huge weight with them and reading the forums is NOT gonna give me the correct answers) What I want to know (and I dont want the...

I have a stock 88 Supra with a leaky tank. I thought it was the filler tube, but after replacing the gasket for it, it still leaks anytime I have more than 3/8 of a tank, so I think the seam is rusted through somewhere. So.. I purchased a tank (used, but holds fuel). It has been undercoated...
