    hi everyone, noobie here

    5K will be a good start! I origionally got my 91 turbo targa for $4,800,which was a good deal considering the head was re-done w/ a metal head gasket. The car is a blast to drive,you just have to NOT make the newbie mistake of buying one just because you want it bad. Supra's a have a bad rep for...

    Boost gauge doesnt work

    Yeah,the stock turbo pressure sensor is an e-bay item now.

    Allright,where the hell does this go?

    While changing a water temp sensor today,(and checking turbine play) I came across this plug that did not go anywhere, It had been disconnected for awhile,judging by the grime, It comes off the harness hat has the water temp sensor plug and the a/f meter plug. This is a 1991 California Supra...

    Home Depot Post

    There is absoloutely nothing wrong with being cheap and fabricating. It all comes from there NOT being the part or mod available to the general public. So what happens? Someone fabs up the part themselves and cures the problem. Sure,there are alot of of other parts available with HK$ logo's all...
