Excuse me.. (ahem) Hello sensitive gentlemen :)

Make sure the exhaust studs on the head arent getting stuck on the manifold and make sure the fuel rail doesnt have the fuel lines hooked up if its still bolted onto the head. I hooked a crowbar on the top bolt that holds the alternator and pulled the head up like that when mine was stuck.

Names Chris, Im from the bay area and I have 2 supras. One running 91t 5spd and an 89 NA thats currently torn apart over a massive BHG. Hi to all!

just wondering if cressida auto transmissions fit a supra with no modification. thanks

Word for word exactly what I was thinking the other day. How do you guys torque that bolt back on when the engine spins? Im going to try to fish it out again a different way but if I end up taking the cover off, Im definitely changing the belt and seal.

Yes the block is still in the car with the auto attached to it. I tried a magnet but its one of those retractable ones and it kept getting pushed back in and attached to other metal parts before I managed to really feed it in there. Im going to try and cut the magnet off and fasten it to a...

I popped the head off the engine and my dumbass dropped a bolt down inside the lower timing belt cover in the process. I know to get the bottom cover off you have to take the main pulley off, but with so much stuff taken off the engine and the timing belt just dangling, is it ok to just stick a...

Ok well I decided to use the Felpro HG I have lying around. Dont even wanna risk it. What about the valve stem seals in these kits? Anybody have had any issues with those?

I read somewhere (driftmotion I think) the HG in gasket kits arent very good because they dont have the copper rings around the coolant holes, but the one I got in my kit from ebay does have em. is it ok to use then? or is there something else about em that makes em suck? also what other...

+1 on the brake cleaner. just dont use it on non-metal parts.

stitch weld the frame?

do you think the seals in that come in the ebay gasket kit are any good?

Yeah I'll take a vid as soon as Im done checking the compression. Burnt fluid smell? What would that indicate? I do remember it being dark. ---------- Post added at 04:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:02 AM ---------- Yeah I'll take a vid as soon as Im done checking the compression...

As the title says, when I turn on my 89 NA and put it in Drive, it'll go at first. But after its been running a little while (still below operating temp.) if I put it in park or neutral, then try to go back to Drive or Reverse, it won't engage anymore, or it takes a long time for it to take...

if you're anywhere near the bay area I have both w58 and r154 shafts PM me if you're interested.

Yikes! Ok Im slapping on that spare intercooler tomorrow! at least while I get the kit.

Yes that little hole was reason for everything. I guess all the smoke was because I was running very rich since air was escaping the intake tract. Im pissed. My front bumper was so beautiful before this happened lol.

I gave my intercooler a nice big crack a couple days ago. Today I took it off to get ready to replace it and I noticed that if you rotate the upper pipe it lines up pefectly with the lower pipe coming from the turbo. Even the shape of the pipe wraps around components nicely. Do you think...

So I took a look yesterday and..

You probably reset your ECU after changing the battery. Once you turned your car back on the ECU needed time to re-learn everything.
