    lock bezel

    I had ordered some of the clips from Toyota just a few months ago. http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/EPC/291420/catalog.aspx?F=6703&P=1 I got the one on the bottom right, 90468-04126 for my 92.

    BOV vacuum line question

    There's a hard pipe that runs between a couple of the intake runners. Then there's a short vacuum hose that will connect to the hard pipe assembly that goes toward the front of the engine with the VSV's. It's 25706 on this diagram...

    Losing coolant out of overflow tank

    I have similar symptoms. My car has failed a block test, so I definitely have BHG. The car runs and boosts fine, but I lose coolant after a long or hard drive. I have no smoke, even at start up. If I drive it normally for short trips, I can go several days without having to add coolant. I see a...

    Engine Harness Repair

    I finally remember where I got the file from. Go here: http://wilbo666.pbworks.com/w/file/fetch/48443657/Wire%20Harness%20Repair%20Manual%20%28RM1022E%29.pdf I noticed it says 1991-2005, so I'm not sure the 1990 and older owners will be able to find every plug covered in that manual. I have a...

    Engine Harness Repair

    You should be able to get a lot of the connectors from Toyota, you just have to know the part number. I'll PM you a link to a file I have with most or all of the plugs. You're going to have to do a little investigation to identify the plugs. Between that and the TEWD, I was able to refurb the...

    Moving To The Dallas Area!

    I live in Irving near DFW Airport. There used to be a local guy named Christian that had a shop working on MKIII's, but it seems he's moved on. I got in touch with a local 7M guy that did some work on my car last year, but I have yet to find an another shop that specializes in the MKIII. Join...

    Wiring harness blues

    I have a Wire Harness Repair PDF that I can send you. I can't remember where I got it from, but I used it when I refreshed my harness last year. I bought the plugs from Toyota and depinned and repinned them. I had bought some of the pins from Driftmotion, but you can find them online. I'm pretty...

    MHG Leaking?

    As I said, the car runs fine for the most part. The compression numbers are low, but that doesn't concern me as much as the failed block test. It's a pretty simple test, so I'm confident I did everything correct. The car was warm, coolant was drained down a few inches below the radiator neck to...

    MHG Leaking?

    I'm leaning toward an improper build being the cause. The guy that sold me the engine said he put 10k on the rebuild, but blew the turbo and figured it was as good a time as any to go JZ. Maybe he knew about the problem with this engine, maybe not. I haven't driven it a whole lot and have been...

    MHG Leaking?

    I did have the throttle open, EFI fuse pulled and all plugs out when I did the first compression test. The car had been warmed up for about 20 minutes prior to the test. When I did the second test (after the retorque), I did not have the throttle open since the valve covers were still off and...

    MHG Leaking?

    I purchased a rebuilt 7MGTE from someone locally last summer and had it installed. I was told it had HKS MHG and ARP Bolts, new stock pistons, Eagle Rods and new bearings with about 15k on the rebuild. I've put about 2500 miles on the engine and keep pushing coolant out the overflow. The cap on...

    I miss the good old days

    I've been a daily lurker on SM since I got my car 5 years ago. I don't post a lot because most of the answers to my questions can be found by searching. Almost 10 years of threads produces a whole lot of results. I've had quite a few issues getting my car back on the road but if SM didn't exist...

    Remanufactured Steering Rack Quality?

    I bought mine from www.carsteering.com about five years ago and had no problems at all. They have a 3 yr warranty. If you have PPS, you can get the rack with or without the solenoid. There is a core charge, but I reused the box they shipped me and got my credit back pretty quickly. I'd buy from...

    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    I had a bit of a scary moment yesterday when my throttle linkage collapsed and got stuck at WOT. Luckily it happened when I was starting the car, and not while I was driving. I found there were some nylon bushings in the linkage that were broken/missing and causing lots of play and binding. It...
