You have a Koyo and a 1JZ? If so, get a 2JZ-GE fan blade and 2JZ-GTE fan clutch and enjoy the good cooling. If you have a 7M, a new 7M clutch and old blade will work. What you gain in power from electric fans is now added stress to the alternator.

If I can get one at a decent price, I don't mind as I can drop this one and reinstall the other one to keep the car moving. Want to know the kicker everyone? I just went through my receipts right....I bought all new Synchros and bearings.....I FORGOT the needle bearings! Jeeez, I thought I...

-__- might as well look for a good used mainshaft/R154.

I think Albert....where here is a better explanation.

Well the input shaft has needle bearings on the inside of it. So you think these went bad!? That sucks, I bought them new. I hope I don't need a new main shaft as Toyota wants a bank account for that.

My bad Ian. I probably misunderstood. Ok, so you said that it is a failing bearing between the input shaft and the main shaft. The main shaft is the one where the driveshaft goes onto at the back, correct? With that said, I know that I put a new bearing on the input shaft as it is separate...

I like the valve cover powdercoat, very nice color to the engine bay. Albert is a jealous whore.

Ian, I do have access to our lift. I checked the doff oil, not the gearbox oil. I filled the gearbox oil myself after I rebuilt it. I used 3 and close to a half of a next bottle. I used Redline MT-90 as well. I had to drop the gearbox multiple times due to the washers on the hub not being...

Thanks for the explanation Poodles, it makes sense now.

I am going to the shop to do that right now. I will see what comes out, if anything. What confuses me is that why would it make noise hot and not cold? I know for sure, the C-clips that went in on each shafts were good and did not need any massaging. They were tight and each bearing/gears...

I have an excel sheet where I set up a table with the following columns, Part, manufacture/seller and cost. There is also a "Total" box and I cringe EVERYTIME I look at it....18,375 in ONE year. Plus, I am still not do, just saw the diff is bad, plus I will paint the car and change the molding...

When I used it, I heard noises all over the place, from the diff mostly. It seems as there are noises in there as it is running. Not a whine, but a clank and it's definately not the exhaust as it's held up by a lot of hangers. I will have to check the backlash. Here is the weird part, it...

Anyone?

As long none of the valves are burnt or any crazy pitting, you can get buy on buying some Permatex Lapping compound to clean up the faces of the valve and valve seat. Keep in mind, doing this will cause you to have tight valves that will need to be shimmed correctly. You might get lucky on...

Yes, you can use your valves and shim along with the camshafts in that head but all clearances will have to be checked and I assume he will be doing a valve job as well.

Ok, So I am tracking down an issue on my Supra that is giving me a hard time. Through building my car, I rebuilt the R154, new snychros, bearings and seals. Now, I was driving the car and everything seemed fine. I drove for about 3-4 miles at about 40MPH, and then a vibration started. It...

Where Is the new owner!!!!?

Ok, so I changed out my HKS timing belt and went to a Gates Izusu timing belt which everyone uses and the noise went away....*Knock On Wood.* Next problem, I have a serious vibration when the car is driven for a while. After a few miles, a vibration comes from the drivetrain. After putting...

I would first contact CajunKenny and ask if he is selling his. I know he picked up an AEM. Just do a Google search. Check a lot of places to find a good price.
