    supra seat covers, are they worth anything?

    Master rebuild kit

    Yeah I'm pretty sketched out by that deal. All of the things that are in that kit would run you a hell of a lot more than 550 dollars. But hey, if you feel you need to save the money then try it out and let us all know how it is after about 50k miles :icon_bigg

    Engine wiring help

    So there are knock sensor wires? The knock sensors are the 2 sensors that go directly into the block on the drivers side right? I have both of those in and wired up but I still have the loose brown wires. My car starts up fine and I timed it and everything. Still not sure what those brown...

    Engine wiring help

    Wow. That same wire is cut and hanging out on my supra also. Mine isn't on the road yet but it turns over and does run. I have both grounds hooked up to the intake manifold and it's definately not starter related. So i'm in the same boat as you and if anyone can give any useful information I...

    Coolant leak..@!&!&*(&

    How does that stop leak work? Do you run it through the system, it stops the leaks and then you run regular coolant again? How does this affect your cooling capacity in general? I don't want there to be any chance that my car won't cool sufficiently.

    Coolant leak..@!&!&*(&

    Sorry, I guess I should have elaborated more. I used a mirror and from what I could see I think it's coming from the actual fitting.

    Rattling sound...kind of scary

    I'm an idiot for not reading into this more before asking about it. I searched a bunch for rattling sounds but didn't come up with anything that said waterfall noise until i started searching for a good way to get to my coolant leak at the heater core. I think that's what I'm getting...

    Coolant leak..@!&!&*(&

    I have a coolant leak behind the head by that heater hose nonsense. Is there any good way to get at this without pulling the head off. I'm looking for nifty tricks here I don't expect there to be like a magical door in the firewall...although that would be amazing.

    Rattling sound...kind of scary

    I have this rattling sound coming from my engine. And it's not a rod knock or valve tick rattling sound. I know what both of those sound like and i'm sure it's not that. The strange thing is that when I first start the car it does it on and off every few seconds. After a little while, maybe...

    I NEED HELP, FAST

    So this is very very strange. I was getting power to everything the other day but the car wouldn't turn over. I checked continuity across the starter and decided it was bad and then took it to autozone to confirm it and replace it. I got a new starter and installed it, having to remove and...

    Suspension revival

    When I push on my car it rolls like there's no tomorrow. It's like a boat in some rough waters. Anyway, I don't know that much about suspension but I assume it's the shocks no longer doing their job. Also the springs are wicked rusty. Can springs reach a point where the spring constant...

    Starting Issues

    So I got everything back on the car after doing a a rod knock rebuild. I rolled the car out of my garage into the driveway, go to start it up...nothing. I turn the ignition and hear a click shortly after i turn the key. I assume this is the starter relay? Then nothing else happens. If it...

    Knock - not rod knock!?

    SOOOOO...I started this post a while ago. Let me update everything. I pulled the motor, which took forever. The worst part was working at night only to find that I need a tool or something that I had to get from a store that was no longer open. Then I would wake up at like noon, non get out...

    Engine mount issues!

    So I got all of the bolts out. I missed the two that threaded into the block from the tranny side. The transmission and engine are now separated. The engine doesn't want to come all the way for some reason though. And I took the clutch release fork out already. I'm not sure if there was...

    Engine mount issues!

    Yeah i'm glad i got that cleared up also. Except now the engine won't separate from the tranny. And I don't think its the "I forgot about the clutch release fork". It won't separate at all. It's like it's glued together. I think I got all the bolts. There was that one i almost missed on...

    Engine mount issues!

    SOOO...I had a revelation when i noticed that i wasn't being told to watch for the car to raise as im lifting the engine but that what i think is the cherry picker lifting the car is just the springs unloading. I felt dumb when i found this out I couldn't believe i didn't see it. ANYWAY, as i...

    Engine mount issues!

    I already took the nuts off by getting at them from the top; it was pretty easy. I can't get the bolts out though that's the only problem I have left to lifting this engine. And i assume they need to come out, because of the angle of the bolts the engine can't come straight up. But even with...
