Oooo... what should I be checking for on the head??? Are you saying that by flushing, I am creating spots where the buildup is different in thickness thereby creating spots where the coolant can't cool as well as other spots? so I should try to clean out the coolant passages in the head as much...

WoW I hope whenever I do my 2j swap my build will be as nice as yours :D

Sweet thanks!!! Hopefully soon after I get my headgasket swapped :D did you already pull the seatbelt stuff? Good news!!! Got my tracking numbers from Driftmotion today!!! 4 packages =O and that's not all either!! hehehe

oh speaking of veyrons.... I was watching Top Gear the other day... top speed of 265 mph... OH MY GOD.. ok back to subject

AHH LoL great tips!!! but remember!! I'm trying to keep it simple here!!! hehehe LoL I will def look into the injector cleaner.. and I I've got some copper sealant otw... gotta love amazon free 2-day shipping yumyum ---------- Post added at 06:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:35 PM...

Wow thanks for the feedback guys!! @Radiod: I'm positive there's no oil in my coolant at all. That's one of the things I was very sure to check. Oil is lighter than water right? so it'll float. In that case, there is no oil in my coolant, no milkshake!!! As for the manifolds, I don't think we...

Thanks!! Happy belated to you too as well!!!

Thanks!! I've heard good and bad about gluing old pre89 trim to the 89+ center garnish... >_< we wil see. As for the 2JZ swap, I think I may have to do more research, haven't read anything on keeping 7mgte stuff. On a side note, I have ordered all the gaskets needed for my headgasket job, both...

Will def. keep that in mind, thanks!!! I might need to email them since I might be getting the bolts second hand

Ok I did (and am still trying to find more info) my research and I just want to confirm what I have found. Situation: Car is down right now awaiting new IC due to several leaks on stock system. During browsing I came across a few BHG threads and have concluded that my Supra is exhibiting...

OH wows... ok so yes, I do need to pull both manifolds.. oh boy... as I'm reading through the tsrm... HOLY SHIT... gotta pull the turbo too!!! ZOMG ---------- Post added at 10:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:49 AM ---------- er no?... LoL yeah if you can get the arp bolts that 'd be...

I was thinking more along the lines of new headgasket, arp bolts and a day LoL. Been doing some more research (at them same alternating with polishing my valve covers cuz I already started on that... and wouldn't make sense to stop, perhaps I can add some value to the engine for when I sell it...

I actually haven't put her back together yet, I just read some BHG threads and realized I had the same symptons before I took her apart. But I always attributed the coolant overflow as me filling too much, because after that initial overflow, it wouldn't happen again. There might just be air in...

Well... I think it's safe to say even if it isn't a full blown (no pun intended) BHG, something is clearly wrong... I looked on amazon and the test kit is 54.39 for a one time use. So now it's time to decide my next course of action. I know for one that I am immediately diverting my attention to...

NOOOOOO!!!!!! I knew something was not right!!!!!.... coolant overflowing out of overflow reservoir, water noises on start-up, horrible smelling brown coolant... ugh you guessed it.. possible BHG or sealing issues :(... I'm at a loss. Time to research what I can do to test and if it can be...

LoL :D I read that there is some modification needed to swap from pre89 to 89+ tails... is that correct?

I talked the really good set seller down to 320.... oh should i do it?????????

Thanks guys!! Comforting to know bout the grounds LoL! Right now I have quite the dilemma. I am really keen on getting a nice set of JDM tails. Its the last piece I need for my bodywork. I have collected mirrors, door handles, got a set of 89+ spoiler waiting and now all I need is the tails, and...

Alright updates!!!: Added a new piece of hard foam (same stuff I used for the TEMS gasket) to fill the worn section Finished Product Looks good!!! I'm thinking about keeping it at 80 grit or another level more to avoid uber blingy ness... Not that I'm too lazy to polish it all...

:D PROGRESS!!!! :D LoL.... those things look like they belong in a sci-fi movie >_<
