    Rear suspension problem

    No it does not seem to be broken. But i was just wondering, saves you from possible later on breakage? Since it is only plastic looking the metal ones should last longer? But for now I would replace the bent part. Is there a specific name for that? So I would know where to find it on the list of...

    Rear suspension problem

    The sway bar end links on the 89+ Supras look like plastic don't they? Do you think the pre-89's would work? They seem like theyre made out of metal and seem more sturdy than the plastic ones? Just a thought

    Rear suspension problem

    I just checked out the stabilizer bar looking things on each side of the car, looks like the driver side one is bent? Is there anything else i should check besides that?

    Weird idle issue, can anybody chime in?

    Thanks for the help though, Id like to get as much help as i can get. So for further diagnosis, i have checked out the VSV for the fuel pressure regulator and the resistance fluctuates around 70-95 ohms depending on temperature and such (TSRM says b/t 38-44ohm) so im going to replace that and...

    Subwoofer Ideas?

    I was just wondering if anyone has been successful in putting a single sub enclosure in the trunk area while maintaining space to still have the targa top be able to store in the trunk while its out? I have the idea of cutting out a 10" in the spare compartment area but I want to retain the...

    Rear suspension problem

    Hey, I picked up this 89 Turbo targa a few weeks ago and I noticed something when i go over a bump or so. Specifically when the road is bumpy the rear end of the car feels like its vibrating and rattling a lot like its going to fall apart, as well as when the rear driver side wheel goes over a...

    1989 turbo targa loss of power after idle. STILL NO JOY.... Help Please...

    Did you shorten the diagnostic terminals at E1 and TE1? It should throw a code if there is a malfunctioning unit, check this site on the diagnosis and codes that it may show up. Im kinda leaning towards a TPS if the car somewhat hesitates and has some shifting problems...

    Weird idle issue, can anybody chime in?

    Okay, so today i took her out for a long drive. After maybe about driving for about 30 minutes or so and i come to a parking lot or stop, the idle purrs perfect at around 700rpm. I don't know as to why its only acting up the first cold start, or after restarting the car after shutting it off...

    Weird idle issue, can anybody chime in?

    Yeah, all wiring is good no loose connections or anything, all ignition related stuff are within spec of the TSRM. What i don't get is, there are times when the idle is perfect, but i still don't get any reading from the left side of the coils, could it just be my timing light? Besides, if all...

    Weird idle issue, can anybody chime in?

    Is it normal to have replaced the coil pack already and my timing light still not able to pickup 3/6 of the coil signals? The left coil of each pack doesnt want to be read with my timing light, however, the right ones do. Removing injectors doesnt really seem to do anything. EDIT: Injectors...

    Weird idle issue, can anybody chime in?

    No clue, probably the injectors that have been used since the car came out of production? Lol. Do injectors really cause those problems? As much as possible i hope the problem isnt the injectors, those would cost a good amount of money for replacements right?

    Weird idle issue, can anybody chime in?

    I sprayed WD-40 and carb cleaner all around any hoses and intake gaskets, no idle changes occured. I did go through that list, the only thing that im skeptical about now is the MAF sensor, i may have bought a faulty one still.. could that be?

    Weird idle issue, can anybody chime in?

    Yeah i thought TPS would cause the CEL to go on, but i read the code there isnt anything related to the TPS. However i did get a Code 52 "knock sensor" and i checked one out the pigtail harness clip was completely missing and the P.O just put a wire in there. After i noticed that, the CEL...

    Weird idle issue, can anybody chime in?

    Plugs are not wet, they are gapped to IIRC around .033~ all plug wires are new. I mean shoot i even tried a different coil pack from a working GTE but it still has that idle problem. For reference i found this video on youtube shows EXACTLY how my car idles its not just an intermittent thing its...

    Weird idle issue, can anybody chime in?

    Okay so ive tested that the coils are within spec. Igniter and cps are in good working condition and has specs in the TSRM. I am still stumped as to what else could be causing this problem. It looks like it has no vacuum leaks, i still smell a rich fuel mixture out the exhaust and the idle lopes...
