Anyone going to Speed Week?

Any chance that it could be acid rain / industrial fall-out?

I just aquired a set of chrome Lexus spoke style wheels. Because the chrome is flaking in a couple of places I was considering painting them gloss black. I am assuming they will need to be roughed up but will some kind of etching prep be required?

Always a work in progress. I was considering painting the T belt and valve covers a metalic blue, what do you think?

go to KSL.com and search Supra

I just returned from the machine shop and the answer is yes.....sort of As explained to me, the damaged area can be welded and then a new surface cut but, the strength of the crank is in the radius of where the journals meet the weights and when the crank is welded this radius area is...

has anyone ever had the thrust bearing surface of the crank machined to accept an over size thrust bearing? Is this even possible?

My son made this for me in his welding class. I have used it many times and it works great!

When I assembled the engine last year the crank felt a little tight although I could still turn it fairly easily using a wrench. Against my better judgement I left it as is instead of trying a different thrust bearing set. I am wondering if this possibly caused a lack of lubrication resulting...

Thrust bearing diagnosis: 1. Have someone press the clutch pedal while you watch for movement. If no movement seen, don't give up, go to step two. 2. Look for rub marks on the backside of the crank pulley. Yes? 3. Use large pry bar to move the crank fore and aft. Movement? 4. Remove engine...

Since I couldn't find anything wrong with the clutch or trans I went back to crank movement. Upon close inspection of the backside of the pulley I could see where it had rubbed against the timing belt cover. This time I used a pry bar and was able to unfortunately, move the crank fore and aft...

The input shaft does turn freely (done by hand) and prior to removal, no noise was heard at idle with the trans in neutral. The car drove / sounded normal at all speeds in all gears. I had entertained the same thought regarding the trans, but concluded that with the clutch pedal pressed the...

Crank thrust bearing wear is nil i.e. no fore aft movement The noise / loading happened suddenly with no prior warning or indication that something was amiss. The slave cylinder is new from http://www.toyautoparts.com/ and is Aisan the master is new from Checker Auto (I believe this to be...

Since I will be pulling the trans next week, I am wondering what your best time for R & R is? To qualify, it must have been done on jack stands, no lifts and trans jacks, air tools are ok.

I am leaning toward a faulty TO bearing possibly binding under load. So next week I will drop the tranny and see. My reasoning on TO bearing is because the TO bearing is the only thing engaged when the pedal is pressed. Am I right or am I missing something? As a side note, the issues...

Last Thursday the clutch pedal got "hung up" and wouldn't return by itself. I popped the pedal back up with my foot. Now everytime when I press the clutch pedal I hear what sounds like a failing TO bearing. Also, at an idle when the clutch pedal is pressed the engine loads up and stalls as...

Does anyone have any pics of their custom made undercovers?

You can find them all the time for cheaper, but it will always be the day after you just bought the ones you have. Murphy's law
