I get bored very fast with Automatic cars. We have an automatic family car for sitting in traffic on sunday afternoons. (The 6puck in my MK4, makes me want to literally kill the world sitting in traffic) I am converting my MK3 to manual this week an I will be running an OEM smooth engaging...

OK so the audience was right... the strange rivets were loose. I just tapped them closed with a center punch and I dropped a little solder on them. the grounds were also loose so I tack soldered them too. Lights now work. I also Fixed the short in the Driver side vanity mirror. - broken...

^^^^^Oh that little rectangluar copper-ish fork clip? I thought he was referring to something related to the release bearing itself.

There are no CLIPS in a W58 clutch kit. ( I just bought one from Exedy) You are either confused as to the tranny you have or the clutch kit you bought. Which is it?

Most people get in way over their heads when they start modding a car, much less a MK4 Supra. Parts are NOT cheap, and small projects that you estimate $500 could more than likely end up costing over $2000. That body kit is pricey assuming its a true Top Secret. Perhaps the kid didnt...

While doing my pedal swap for Auto to Manual conversion. I removed the dash panel from under steering column and with the flurry of sand and debris that came sliding into my eyes came this.... vintage wrigleys wrapper from circa 1985

WOW, if I had the space to gut my bay, I'd definitely do that. looks like I will just have to remove all the fender accessories and pull it all to thecenter of motor then foil paper the stuff to protect from overspray.

nice piping!

Its pretty easy to line up and make your own template with some masking tape. I have done it several times on various cars.

Wow I just read every page of this 26 page thread. I wish more supra owners were like you and took the care and time to restore such a great car, instead of living off eBay china parts :) I enjoyed all of your custom work and attention to detail. reminded me of my 2yr MK4 rebuild. I...

I have run the HKS SSQ and the Blitz DD with much sucess. I currently have the TurboXS type H? on my MK4. and I plan to reinstall the Blitz DD on the MK3

^^^ Thanks I read that..... I will attempt that tomorrow. I just found it very odd that everything failed simultaneously. I will check my pass window switch tomorrow and try the rivet fix.

Randomly both items (dome light in any mode or config, and pass window switch) along with my driver vanity mirror no longer are operational. I was searching and found a few tips but it seems other items that are fuse related are working. (ie: Ignition Key Illumination, Door Courtesy Light...

I just went through this .... I imported my 87 from canada to the US. Albeit, my car was a LHD, it was a super easy process. I would suggest you read the US Customs and Border Protection websites about importing a car to the US. All that Customs requested from me was a letter from Toyota Motors...

Ed, what EMS are you using on the 1UZ/VVti I am debating pulling the JZ/V160 out of my MK4 and putting in a UZ/V160 as well.

I dont stress this anymore. Thieves will get ur car if they really want it. Alarms are comical at most since there is online information on installation and bypassing most aftermarket and factory alarms. My friend had a 2006 brand new escalade stolen from a mall. Thieves were caught on...

I am planning and sourcing parts to swap a W58 into my MK3. I am unsure of what model W58/W55 transmission will work and its necessary configurations. I know that I will need the 7M/W58 bell housing. I am more concerned with the tail housing/ shifter housing. I have access to an SC300...

Thanks guys.... I have been debating a 1JZ or 1UZ (.020 over, decked head high compression)swap. I am still just reading all the FAQ's and stickies on the forums here. I want to get a good understanding of what is involved, and hopefully I wont have to reinvent the wheel with this. Maybe I...

Who is to say a rebuild was done correctly? I would take a high mileage car in need of a rebuild and make sure it is done correctly. I vote #6
