    Touch-Up Paint

    I tried the dealer, but they said that they can't get it anymore:(. Has anyone bought touch-up paint from an online retailer like the one Suprasonic mentioned? If so did it match your color right?

    Touch-Up Paint

    Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone has found a touch-up paint that matches the original Silver for an 87 Supra (Amethyst Metallic paint color code 920). From what I read it looks like the silver changed in 89. Thanks for any tips.

    Just Got A Supra!!!

    The harderst part about taking the interior out is trying not to break or scratch any of the old plastic parts. My speakers were the original ones so the speaker cones were completly rotted away, so yours might be too. I replaced the radio in my Supra with this one, it looks stock, matches the...

    Just Got A Supra!!!

    Hey Jake, you can get the hood and hatch struts at Advanced Auto Parts, Autozone, or any car parts place. The hood ones are easy to replace, and they make it so much easier to work in the engine bay. The hatch ones are a pain to replace, you have to take out all of the interior pieces behind the...

    Cup Holders

    I've been looking around more, and these two cupholder seem like they would work well in the center console, if they fit (I can't find dimensions online). This one is out of a 99-06 BMW 3 series. This one is out of a 99-02 Audi A4/S4. What do you guys think?

    Cup Holders

    Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone has modified cup holders from a different car to fit in their Supra, or bought aftermarket ones that work well and don't look bad. I've seen the 89+ cup holders, but I don't really want to have to replace my console lid. Any thoughts or input would be great.

    Low Idle

    Thanks for all of the input guys. I checked the ISCV, water temperature sensor, cold start injector, cold start injector time switch, and the AFM. Everything cheked out fine, but I was still having the low idle issue when restarting it after 10-15 minutes of cooling down from operating...

    Help with Connector

    This is going to sound stupid, but I'm trying to find out how to remove the conncetor from the coolant temperature sensor so I can test it. It's one of the square plastic connectors with a metal wire running around the edge of it. Im used to seeing tabs or something to push in, and I just want...

    Low Idle

    I have a question about my 87 non-turbo supra (71k original miles), and was hoping someone could help me out. Sometimes when I start my car, it idles real low (around 400) until I give it gas, and then it usually goes to a normal idle. For example, today, when I went to the store it started fine...

    Rear Hatch Struts

    I noticed that some people have been asking for hatch struts from cars that are being parted out, and wanted to let everyone know that you can get new replacement hatch struts at Advanced Auto Parts that fit and work perfectly. I paid about $56 for the pair. The only modification that I did was...

    Seatbelt Problem

    I noticed that the front seatbelts in my 87 Supra don’t lock when you pull them quickly.:yikes: I did some research and found that in the 91 era Toyotas there was a defect in the seatbelts. This was posted as a fix to the problem: Similar to other seat belt retractor systems, the device uses...

    Power Steering Pressure Hose

    Here is a follow-up... I just wanted to close the loop and hopefully help the group. Where was all of this information a week ago :aigo:. Here is how I changed the power steering pressure hose, with an OEM replacement from Advanced Auto. It is helpful to degrease the areas you’ll be working...

    Power Steering Pressure Hose

    Thanks for all of the input. I ended up buying the OEM/Powercraft from Advanced Auto, ran me $54 after the online promo code. I guess I'll be putting it on this weekend. Since I am pulling the system apart I figure that I would drain and replace with fresh ATF. Any thoughts on how to clean out...

    Power Steering Pressure Hose

    When you say far superior, I assume that you are talking about reliability? Any idea on how the Dm is routed from pump to the steering gear? Is it going to rub on anything?

    Power Steering Pressure Hose

    Today I noticed that my 87 Supra had a slight leak on the power steering pressure hose on the rubber section that comes off of the pump. I plan on replacing it soon, and am looking into OEM vs. the driftmotion stainless steel hose. Everything else on the car is OEM, the way I like it:icon_bigg...
