    how do you guys fix this?

    +1 an accusump will prime the engine before you start it each time, which will eliminate what you are hearing...but IMO, what you are hearing is normal unless it is very loud and last longer than 1-2 seconds. the engine needs a second to get oil flowing throughout it, and it might sound...

    Please Help - Water in Spare Tire Area

    Order them from Jeff Watson at Champion Toyota. Bets prices we can get for OEM stuff. I think both gaskets were $30 when I got them? Not too sure. Yea, pulling the plugs is a good temporary fix if you need to drive it. I pulled my spare tire too, to let any leaking water flow right out...

    attention anyone who has purchased from Champion Toyota

    everything I have purchased from Jeff has been a lot cheaper than what I have expected...door lock bezels, 1JZ timing belt components and oil seals, coolant hoses and thermo's, shift boot, all kinds of goodies. I think that calling directly and saying your a SM member gets you a better rate...

    1J Crank Pulley + Napa Socket =

    if the flywheel is still on, you can use a big flat-head and lock it between a tooth on the flywheel and the stand. there are also some specialty tools that will lock the flywheel into place...the one I have seen/used was a handheld tool that you hold to lock it in, but I can't find it online...

    oil level not matching up

    maybe try checking it when it is dead cold, on a level surface. I don't think it is an issue to be a little over-filled, most people run 1 quart (or liter) over the full mark for assurance reasons. i think 4.8 liters is the correct amount. you sure that is the correct dipstick? mine looks...

    I wanna take the plunge: 1jz clip for 89, what do you think

    the 1JZ is an excellent engine, and your supra would be a blast to drive especially compared to the 7mge. but you may be in for a lot of work just to have a turbo if needed... a clip is a great place to start, but there will still be a lot of other items to deal with such as the harness, r154...

    getting around emissions here in MD?

    an emissions tester can't just let you through. the test has to be done one way or the other, by running a different car, or pulling your timing way back and hoping it passes. but the tester can get in a lot of trouble, have to pay fines, and lose their certification if they get caught...
