They should be the same as pre-89 retaining clips, ill try to get a hold of a few at the junkyard and then snap some pics, we should be able to see if they are similar.

Nope, I did not pull the valve springs off during the HG replacement, im hoping it will not get worse soon, im saving up funds to buy and rebuild a 7MGTE

This has been the issue i have been noticing with this car ever since i got it i believe, but i thought the head gasket job would do the trick, guess not. After an oil change I would usually drive a week or two about 85-90 miles a week, and when i check the oil in the morning, the level went...

Like others have said on this forum, non moving parts are fine, i have the front strut bar, h4 headlights, and interior LED's lol

i have no clue as to if auto stores carry them, are you 89+ or pre-89? I have a thread on the for sale section usually i stop by the junkyard once a week. I can get you the white retainers for the door moldings if you want :)

There are plastic clips that are slid onto the clip retainers behind the molding, unless those retainers were ripped off the molding, then you would probably need to replace the molding, or push in new ones and then melt the holding tabs onto the retainer so it doesnt fall off.

Ahh, now thats more subtle :) Looks more black now too haha! My other mint steering wheel is for sale BTW! :D

^ Lol my car is always low on gas haha, but i believe i have not seen a locking push vent gas cap, ive seen one or the other, but not at the same time.

Well, i checked the charcoal canister it wasnt coming from that area at all, and pretty much when the car is shut off it comes from the fuel door area, and was verified when i opened the gas door it was the area with the strongest smell, been almost a week when i got a new OEM gas cap, and i...

Only current picture of the car i have with the new gauge look and whatnot :D

Well, lesson learned. NEVER get an Autozone cap, figured it was the one as when i usually fill up the tank for gas, the cap would hiss when i remove it, but no it doesnt, i opened the fuel door when the strong smell was occuring, sure enough after replacing with a OEM cap, hiss was back and the...

glad to hear progress on the car Adam! damn Supra's always gotta have a problem pop up at least once a week lol, my 2nd gear synchro seems to be going out on me now :(

does it sound like a slight high pitched small turbine spooling?

Most of the time it would be the switches that are corroded/dirty, try fiddling with the passenger side switch and clean the contacts inside the switch, if that doesnt do it, then move on to the other switch on the drivers door.

So it's a non-toyota application? Im not entirely sure about that then, but if you are running a 1j/2jz engine mated with an R154 i don't see why not, it shares the same drivetrain just a different chassis..

Alternator voltage regulator and generator brushes can still be replaced, done it on my car :)

Bump, try unlplugging the trans control unit on the passenger kick panel, if you can shift into reverse, and forward gears (1,2, D) then your module is shot, if it doesnt work still then its in the transmission..

The part shown above is 31231A is what u need right? The part number for that should be this: 90363-45012
