Wow... and new connectors + pigtails fixed it huh? Did you get the pins from Driftmotion too or Toyota? I was actually looking for a replacement pin for the blue aux fan switch on the T-stat housing last week and had no luck. Not even on the TSRM. Is there a sticky for electrical connectors/...

I assume you got a new harness & connectors from Toyota? And you have no issues after replacing them? Hmmm. Definitely something to keep in mind. When I got the car it would smoke on start up (valve stem seals) but since I had the head & hg done thats not been a problem. Also recently did a...

Update: This morning was the coldest yet this week, so I really expected this problem to show up. Naturally, the car starts right up, perfectly normal with no miss. After sitting for about 4 hours in the lot at work, I go to start it and bingo! Crank crank crank, no start. So I open the hood and...

So, I think my 7M coil pack is starting to go...well, either that or my Ignitor. Just recently only on cold starts, it fires up with a miss that clears up in a matter of seconds, and never returns until the next cold start. Then one morning this week it just cranked and cranked, as if it had no...

Okay. I just finished reading through this whole thread. Love Tookwik's setup. I'm a bit surprised that nobody asked what happens to the little white ground wire (I assume it's a ground) that goes from one of the fuel rail mounts to the 7M coil pack plate. Didn't even see it in any pictures.

Thankfully my cables looked okay, but good info for the Supra memory bank :D

definitely couldn't hurt, But when I looked at it I thought it felt like that little roller wheel on the throttle linkage at the tb wasn't rolling the way it should.

So all of a sudden yesterday, I notice that my gas pedal now sticks at the very top of the travel, just after the freeplay. I sprayed some wd-40 on the throttle mechanisims and it doesn't seem to have done anything. I love how this problem seems to have come out of nowhere. Anyone else ever have...

Wow the actual housing was broken and all that wasn't working was the trip counter? Crazy. I'd hate to pull mine apart to discover something like that :(

And when she does, she strikes down upon you with great vengeance and furious anger lol D:

Just noticed that those two pics are labeled differently. Which is correct?

You realize that after 3 years, your car has subliminally trained you to drive with one eye on the temp gauge, and one eye on the boost gauge.

My speedo is fine, but my trip counter has never worked since I've had my mk3. Looking at your great pics I'm suspecting that little pinkish gear there on the right of the trip counter is busted on mine :( . Is there any hope of fixing that? I remember back when I had my old E30 Bimmer that you...

A lot of really good info here. I like. :D . So then I'm thinking for a more or less stock engine, the best thermostat would be an o.e. type (195*F, Offset, with jiggle pin) ?

I've also had the Blitz Nur Spec cat back for about 3 years now. Got it from Horsepowerfreaks. Really nice system. My first choice would have been the RSR GT2 Ex mag due to its super straight through design and awesome angle the muffler sits at, but it was already discontinued. Even though the...

WOW!! Authentic Work Equips! Stupid Rare dude. Can't wait to see how they look on an MK3 :D ---------- Post added at 09:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:33 AM ---------- Gotta Love the g7's.

Dad's '83 Cressida had the 150 horse 5M-GE :icon_bigg ...man that was a sweet ride. Stolen right in front of the house with 120k on it :( . Great article! Toyota for life :)

These wheels are off my friend's '03 Cobra. He had these laying around. I really didn't think they would fit, but they do, kind of. ROH's RT 18x9 275/35 front 18x10 295/35 rear. Offset believed to be 24 all around.

Sucks. On my car, it's the actual key cylinders that freeze and i can't turn the key. Bent one key pretty bad one morning last week cuz I was late for work :/ . Almost any kind of spray lube/ penetrant frees it up, but it doesn't last forever.

So I finally broke down and bought a DP. JSC Speed had the HKS DP on sale so I caved. So once i decided on running with no cats, I started looking around at test pipes. Just about 2 weeks ago, I ordered a 3" test pipe from BIC because he had the lowest shipping price. Still haven't gotten it. I...
