    Flexing Chassis

    Targas definitely need a brace with the top removed imho. I noticed it drives the same as with the roof on when braced. Its all good that way, cruising with the roof off this summer has been a blast! have fun!

    You guys think this is worth $$$

    Needs paint and a rebuild. Looks pretty clean though. Engine shots? I'm not sure about the market there, but I bought a similar car for $1950.00 Offer 18 and haggle? These cars are money pits, so keep a wheelbarrow full of $$ for the rebuild. Don't forget to save some for turbo, clutch, sways...

    does your car smell?

    I can't smell anything because I'm too busy trying to cover up my bleeding ears from this new 3" exhaust. We should get a hp/decibel chart, I think mine will be one for one. My car actually smells ok now that it dried out from the summer weather. I pulled the ugly carpet and got it cleaned. That...

    good clutch?

    edited orig. post.. If you find a good one for cheap, lmk. Tell us what you end up with. Gl! You have a stock intercooler with hard pipes? There are some pretty good deals on aftermarket ones here, might be a good upgrade for you from the sounds of the setup imho.

    will non turbo head work on turbo engine?

    Yes, a non-turbo head will work. I think one of the cams is slightly different, the rest is the same. It will still work, though. (Although the castings changed over the years, I believe the 91-92's were the "best"). I'm sure someone on here could give you the particulars.

    ok big problem now

    The octane rating of the gas you use has nothing to do with the clutch characteristics. It sounds like your clutch hydraulics are having problems at this point. Its just coincidence. Start by checking the clutch pedal freeplay, and the master and slave cylinders. edit, oops, s383 beat me to it!

    HKS VPC/GCC/EVCII or Maft-Pro w/ boost control?:dunno:

    I was kind of in the same boat, I just put it back mostly stock till I broke the engine in, now that it's done, I'm going to wire up the Maftpro thats been sitting around...of course I'll have to pick Dave's brains, we all need a little experienced help with new tuning systems...hopefully there...

Burgundy n/a, fixed everything on it, 1st person who came to look at it bought it. Now fixing up my '88T, talk about money pits. But its sure...

    I'm the dumbest supra owner ever

    For $650 you could get a Maftpro with speed density, wideband o2 etc. and forget about Mass air flow sensors. I'd give that some thought...

    Should I retrofit to r134a? or is r12 possible?

    Thats definitely worth it. Just a recharge of r134a costs $100 here, never mind the new parts.

    Advice needed: rounding up a few more horses?

    Front strut bars are overrated according to some knowledgeable members on here. You can pull the hats and use most of them with just the actuators on. Redline 75-90 LSD oil is great for the diff. and Redline MT-90 is a good candidate for manual transmissions. Theres alot of synthetic blends out...

    Differential restoration

    I'm currently rebuilding my '88T, and I have a used diff. to go in. It looks nasty, and I'd like to know the best way to restore the case's appearance. I was thinking of removing the back cover and sandblasting that, and wirewheeling the rest...anyone else gone through this?
