I had something similar a couple weeks ago, it got progressively worse, then I was unable to shift... All 6 flywheel bolts had worked themselves almost completely out. That sucked, hope you just have loose exhaust bolts or something

I was wondering why I'd taken this pic... Heh, I forgot... Don't mind all the dirt, they're doing construction in my neighborhood, can't keep the supra clean...

Hey, I'll snap a few pics of that window trim on lunchbreak today and post them. To be honest, I'd rather the rubber trim I used was a little bit wider but it fills in the gap so I can't really complain.

I used this stuff: http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/sku/Replacement/Windshield_Molding/D451703.html?loc=Front&tlc=Auto+Body+Parts+%26+Mirrors It looks fine, the metal trim definitely looks classier if it's not all beat, mine had flakey paint and the previous owner had messed up/broken all of...

Hey all, my turbo died last week - sounds like a siren when it spools up, smoke comes out of the center of the turbo... not too much shaft play tho. Anyway, I've had a ct26 on a shelf in the garage for about 8 years. It worked well and only had about 15K miles on it when it was taken off the...

Finally got around to swapping my rebuilt R154 (it's been complete and sitting on the bench since last August) back in for the temporary W58 along with a new SPEC stage 2 clutch kit... Taught myself (via the TSRM) how to replace a clutch/tranny. . . Also moved a few steps closer to my interior...

I dropped out of the last g.b. for this because I bought one of these from another member here - it looked awesome but I sold it to a buddy before I ever even installed it... So all that just to say; I'm in if there's another batch produced!

That's what everyone told me - I suppose I might've just had a dud of a muffler (I didn't buy it brand-new maybe the P.O. buggered up the muffler) since everyone here says the Raptor Racing exhaust is so quiet - I just know when I'd turn down my girlfriend's street from about 1/4 mile away she'd...

This past summer I sold my Raptor Racing exhaust and replaced it with the Tanabe Touring exhaust. I agree that the single exit muffler doesn't look great on the MKIII but I will never regret the decision to switch. The Raptor exhaust was obnoxiously loud and droney while driving - with the...

Just in case anyone cares or stumbles on this thread in the future I thought I'd post an update. I swapped the rear springs/shocks with each other and now the passenger side is lower... Tho I knew that was going to be the case as soon as I got a good look at the springs with the wheels out of...

I did check the sway bars and all around the rear end - I haven't spent much time staring at the front end but how would the front right corner drop the rear left corner? Side to side in the front is even... it's just weird, it looks like that one spring was cut but I replaced it (albeit with...

Hey guys, so my build is progressing along, (almost time for a build thread) but I noticed that the left rear corner of the car was about an inch and a half to 2 inches lower than the right - I assumed the spring/shock was worn out. (It had KYB GR2 shocks with Intrax springs) so I pulled both...

I finally switched from the terrible black paint (really bad paint job done by the previous owner on an otherwise good shell) on my project to midnight blue pearl this weekend. I only have the hood and roof buffed so far so here it is "in progress" I'll come back and update this post when it's...

I just finished rebuilding my r154, we used gear pullers and a shop press - I can't imagine attempting to dismantle it without the pullers, hell, there were times when I thought the big heavy Toyota gear puller was about to snap... Maybe mine was just assembled by godzilla or something...

Hey, what should I be aware of before I dive into this? I've had JDM 89+ tails (and all the mouldings & side markers) in my closet for about 3 years now, it's time I pull the trigger. Will it be obvious what I need to do once I pull the old tails off? I thought I'd read before that it's almost a...

Thanks for the advice! On the XTD, I was looking at them on Ebay saying to myself "man, that name is familiar, must be a popular kit!" then I saw the sticky and went "oh yeah! That's where I remember the name from" On the ACT kits on Driftmotion, there's the stage 3 that says it's rated to...

Heloo! I haven't posted here in a looooong time but it's spring and I'm finally have a drivable Supra again after years of staring at piles of parts and parts-cars and now I've got to choose a clutch kit. Here's the background on my dilemma: 1. I've been driving for 17 years but I've got less...

Well, good to know there are good ones out there - I guess it's time to hit the parts for-sale section!

So I have 2 7MGTEs torn apart and both of their exhaust manifolds are cracked identically, both also have the same stud on top snapped off in the manifold - is this super common? I mean my small sample size tells me that 100% of them are cracked! :icon_razz Should I look to have one repaired...

Thanks! That's exactly what I should have asked, "can the stock ECU trim enough out to run the bigger injectors?" Now I've just gotta decide what to do - I'm leaning towards the Lex AFM/550s/AFPR/Wideband right now and hoping for the best... If it won't start I'll just be back at Supramania...
