I'm just going to put this here as a "just in case"

You guys were fortunate then. I need a new rack now, thanks to having power steering fluid put in. This ended up happening to all of my Toyotas, in fact.
That little sticker they put on there isnt to make it look pretty -_-
As a side bit of information, if you go to the passenger side (driver's side in glorious Japron) and cycle the lock a few times from the outside (unlock, lock, unlock, etc.) it should reset the alarm. I dont remember the specifics to the process other than that off the top of my head, but I had...
No reason you cant. It's much less expensive to have a hard line loop around like that than, say, a tube and fin dedicated cooler. For the most part, if they did it from the factory, it should be fine for you. Of course, there are definitely exceptions..
This post is from Joe Perez in the MiataTurbo forums. He's a really cool guy and great at writing. I'm not going to take any credit for any of this or rewrite anything, it's beautifully done as is.
My first car was my 88 that I drove about an hour to check out. It wasnt the first MkIII I had looked at, but it had some decent enough mods done to it. $2600, my life savings at 15 years old. I didnt get to drive it home as a "just in case" (also, big ACT clutch), but that was one of the best...
Lookin good! My covers were polished long ago, so they have that very faded semi-gloss look. I took them off to clean them and replace the gaskets, then got them just as dirty reinstalling them because of how nasty my engine bay is haha. If I do it again, I'll likely go that route. I like how it...
I checked to see if the PO put in a JDM ECU since I'm told the EGR was blocked off. Then I remembered that I wasnt sure how to tell the difference just by looking at it.
Still been sitting for half a decade, still waiting to be restored..
I'm not big on posting in older threads, but this sub-forum isnt exactly lively.
There are a few advantages the MkIII has over the MkIV, but most are largely subjective. Let's look at why the MkIII is heavier for instance.
The MkIII is a bit of a departure from the MkII and MkIV, in that it is...
Newer ones are much better about it though. I believe the 8 speed auto in the new Lexus' will lock-up in 2nd gear!
Our older transmissions with old, burnt fluid are more likely to be slipping often. There's a very similar version of our transmission in many older Volvos like the 760 that didnt...
Probably the same one as you. Check your PMs.
You really do. I will admit that with the stock exhaust on a second turbo Supra, I did try to start up the car while it was already running. I felt like an ass, got out, and put my ear next to the exhaust. I learned to watch the tach better...
I cant say too much for a multitude of reasons, but right now I'm working on getting an e-newsletter out. I dont really like calling it that because it sounds like something you just automatically send to your trash/spam box, and it isnt just going to be obnoxious plugging. It wont be sent out...
Have you done headwork or ported the exhaust manifold? What turbo do you have, and what exhaust? My T4 with straight piping to a Megan muffler was never terrible, and much quieter than most other cars with a fart can
What, you think we sit around, do nothing all day, and sell crap for parts? No way, I'm just as passionate about Supras as anyone else, so that carries over.
We have all sorts of stuff in the works in the future, and really I'd like for us to be a vendor because I'm not here to step on anyone's...
