    general questions about my 86.5, what to do and how to do it.

    Yup i didn't mention that, i didn't even mention adding water which you obviously need to do as the air comes out, reving it to 2.5k or so and holding for a bit every now and then, letting the t-stat cycle enough times to heat the radiator about 15 minutes... Didn't really want to spell it out ;)

    Wenatchee (Wa.) Apple Blossom dyno event

    Like Mario, I mean Duane, said, it's definitely cool you got the best numbers and repped our car, but those definitely sound low! I would've been pretty bummed going out there for that!

    general questions about my 86.5, what to do and how to do it.

    lol, well then I'd guess you still had air trapped in your system and never fully bled it out! IIRC the heater core is the highest point in the cooling system, so even though a fully sealed system should bleed itself over time, i could still imagine some air getting trapped in the core...

    general questions about my 86.5, what to do and how to do it.

    I had the same symptoms, no mixed oil, no smoke, but I had a BHG, not saying you do, but the possibility is definitely there. I'd do a leak down test to be sure In the mean time try to bleed your cooling system, and replace your radiator cap, see if the problem goes away, keep your fingers...

    general questions about my 86.5, what to do and how to do it.

    That sound isn't good. You're hearing air in your heater core. You have air getting into your cooling system somehow, either a leak of some sort, or possibly a blown headgasket...

    2008 Supra MKIII - Project 1BYDFALT

    What did you use to apply the Por-15? That stuff is thick! HVLP Gun? What size tip? I'm pretty sure if those parts are exposed to light, they will eventually fade, the same company makes a topcoat that is UV-resistant

    i pick the worst time to sell me car :(

    Where in Washington are you? I have a friend looking for a car and I'm trying to get him in a Supra of one form or another :) Did I see you at Centralia? I'm pretty positive that car was there!

    Its a shame its illegal to just shoot some people...

    I am the same way 100% It really bothers me how so many people like this just constantly perpetuate their own stereotypes, I work in the restaraunt industry and I see this every day. 90% of the time I know what tip I'm going to get, and there are a few races that are notoriously horrible...

    Jaguar_5's 87 Turbo Build

    Really? Will it fit in a jeep grand cherokee? I'm guessing it just disassembles? I'll bribe you with pizza or something ;)

    Jaguar_5's 87 Turbo Build

    It's all from an '87 And I'm talking about the bolts holding the tranny to the block The ones holding the transmission mount to the body would be a good idea too, lol, thanks for the reminder ;) I'll have to track them down... I also need to look into the wing brackets for the R154, not...

    Jaguar_5's 87 Turbo Build

    Do you want pictures of semi completed brakes with stock rotors? I think not ;) Maybe once I actually get them all installed and bled I might take a picture, but it's still not particularly interesting, and I forgot to take a picture of my walbro 255, a picture of the fuel tank with wires cut...

    Jaguar_5's 87 Turbo Build

    Thanks bro, it was nice meeting you too! I got my new rotors today, thanks Chris! I'm just waiting on one more package with my starter, PS Pump, and rear t-stat housing... I had planned on getting all four rotors installed today, as well as all my semi-metallic brake pads, then fill and...

    RS4rush Build thread!

    You can always paint it to match, I used SEM paint to match my pillar pod to my burgundy interior, I'm sure they'll have a blue that matches. My paint guy had a color swatch with all of SEM's colors, so I recommend finding a paint shop that has one and take it outside to match with your interior!
