    Vaseline Targa fix. Yes or no?

    Just makes sure the body/frame of the car is straight. That way the targa top seals as best as possible. Worked for me, really well too.

    Vaseline Targa fix. Yes or no?

    Whenever I take my targa top off I make sure the car is sitting on perfectly level ground. Then I take a damp cloth and wipe the seals down, both the seals on the targa top as well as on the car, THEN I put the top on. This way The seal is as best it can possibly be. That's what it took for me...

    Sucks to been this guy.

    My buddy actually recently got an extinguisher for his car and mounted it where the oh shit handle was. Needless to say the cops here in Vancouver haven't taken to liking that very much. They've pulled him over for it, and given him more than just a hassle saying "it's not safe, and is a hazard...

    Need some advice on buying a supra mk3 91

    You can always do the 5-speed swap. There's informative, step-by-step write ups of everything on the forums. The 1991 you posted looks pretty good actually. the body looks straight and like others have stated before, Shadow Grey LEATHER interior is always a plus.

    What date did the 89 become the 89.5?

    Holy crap Jeff Lange has the information down to frame numbers! I am utterly amazed.

    Whos has the best/coolest license plates

    Don't know if someone has this already (a bit too lazy to go through the entire thread atm) but I'm thinking of getting "NO TORQ" for my 1JZ MK3. And my buddy with his 7M MK3 wants to get "AL TORQ." We thought it would be a funny thing to see when we are parked next to each other at a meet or...

    What is your supras name?

    I named mine Emily after my best friend, who's name was Emily, died right after I got my Supra. So I named the Supra "Emily" in her memory so that I don't miss my friend as much. Everybody I know, knows the name of my car and I'm not ashamed one bit by it. Somehow I guess someone is looking...

    1JZ Coolant Disappearing?

    Could my turbos be eating up some water too? Cause I know they're water and oil cooled, also I know they're super old and tired and are puffing slightly. Last year when the motor was swapped into my car the Compression Test came back WELL within Toyota spec all within 2 psi of each other on all...

    1JZ Coolant Disappearing?

    Okay, I'll do some research and find out what the problems can be should the engine not pass one of those tests.

    1JZ Coolant Disappearing?

    Hey everybody, I have a 89 with a 1JZ-GTE/R154 swapped into it. Ever since I first got the swap completed, I've had cooling issues. On a day with a temperature of anything above 20*C my SINGLE 14" fan continuously stays on from the moment my MicroTech tells it to until I turn the car off. I...

    Distance advice

    The car was designed to do long trips on the highway. So do it!

    1JZ-GTE A/C Idle-Up

    Do both of you still have the IACV? My MicroTech doesn't support IACV Adjustability so I just have a block-off plate.

    Iridums or Copper?

    NGK BKR7Es for me. Cheap as hell and work great for our cars!

    Your other car

    Supra has been my DD for 2 years. Still my DD to this day. It's always the best feeling in the world when I have a shitty day at flight school or at work and climb into the Supra to drive home.

    Highest HP 1JZ?

    That's what I'm saying Don. It's all in good fun. But the thing is, there's a limit to joking around before it gets taken seriously. And with the internet's great ability to show tone of voice in what we're saying on a forum, no one really knows whether or not we're joking.

    Highest HP 1JZ?

    I'm tired of all the trolling and people taking things too far. We have the engines we choose for our cars because we WANT them. Yeah there's always gonna be a little bashing, but it's all in humor. When things escalate to this scale, things get taken personally and that's exactly what's...

    Best clutch fan combo for 1JZ swapped Supra's?

    I think Albert has a Koyo Stock style rad with a 2JZGTE Clutch and a GTE blade with a shroud at 722WHP. I think that's the best setup to be honest. I want to do this same setup along with the aux fans onthe shroud wired into my ECU for safety purposes. Yhatzee89, I'm basically in your...

    2J cams in my 1J - after install impressions.

    I'm at 14 psi and my AFRs are at a solid 11.3 all day long. Only when it's really cold out at night do I see my AFRs around 11.7.
