    The Head is on, few q's.

    You also need to make sure the engine is on the compression stroke before you install the cps. The tsrm details how to do this.

    hate this car, brakes dont work

    Also, when you get the right master cylinder, make sure you bench bleed it before you install it. I made that mistake when I installed mine and had the same problems you are having.

    Curse of the brake booster

    I must have it, my first booster leaked fluid into my intake causing a bhg. Last night I took her out for a test ride to make sure everything was ok for the suprashootout this weekend, and the reman booster sprung a vacuum leak and locked my brakes up, I had to have it towed home. I just spent...

    How Many Daily Drivers?

    I used my 88t as a dd for almost 9 years and it never let me down. I now have a 90t, but I only use it fun, Atlanta traffic sucks ass and it would probably kill the supra.

    She blew right in front of me!(kinda long)

    Yup, and when you combine that with an improperly installed head bolt, you get BHG.

    Brake master cyl leak?

    No, if the fluid was sealed inside the cylinder, then there would be no need for the gasket.

    Brake master cyl leak?

    If you're not losing a lot of fluid, then its probably just the gasket on the master cylinder leaking. Pull the master and replace the gasket, but check the booster to make sure that no fluid is getting in, if there is, replace that bad boy with the quickness. A reman. booster will run about $85...

    She blew right in front of me!(kinda long)

    Yeah, it totally sucked watching my baby blow up. I've already got her back on the road, new head,hg,and brake booster, and all seems to be well. When I was pulling the old head I found that one of the head bolts that toyota had installed(previous owner)was bent and the hex socket on top was...

    She blew right in front of me!(kinda long)

    Back in April I had my front brakes replaced, and the next day I noticed that when I was stopped I could hear a bubbling sound and the brake pedal would vibrate slightly. So I took it back to the shop and the guy came out to check it out. He gets in the car and mashes the brake pedal, and I ask...

    Suprashootout

    Just checked the attendance list for the shootout and as of right now there are 26 mk4's and 19 mk3's registered. We only need 7 more mk3's for a 50/50 split at the show, so if you can make it, bust out the mk3 and represent.

    Stuttering problem

    Have you checked your timing? My 90t did basically the same thing and I thought it was fuel system related, and it turned out to be my timing.

    Damn Fuel Filter(Pics)

    Yeah, changing the fuel filter sucks, it took me 2 nights of messing with it before I finally figured it out.

    You might also want to check your ignition timing.

    brand new rebuild, now white smoke

    As long as you have good oil pressure, you need to go out and drive the car around a little, just letting it run in the driveway wont burn off all the deposits from the rebuild. Like I said earlier, mine did the exact same thing, once I drove it around a little, the smoke went away.
