stock gauge is not accurate. Use a mechanical gauge to test, TSRM says at least 4.3 psi at idle.

those plugs do seal off coolant. If its leaking from them you should probably drain the system, pull them out, and use some teflon tape on them or something like that and tighten them back

^ removing the pinstripeing from my car was the best mod i ever did for it :-p

I personally use a shop air line air/water seperator from sears on my NA supra. I used to use the same on my NA mr2 and it seems to work great, it has a vlave on the bottom to dump it out too and is pretty cheap. Some might think its ghetto but it works well.

if you can simply unscrew the broken ones from the crank just do that and put nre bolts, if not dont mess with it before you get a professionals opinion. Once you screw up the crank youre in trouble.

LOL thank goodness...

im sure you could run a relay off somethingin the engine bay electrical box, just use a testlight or voltmeter to see what has power only when the key is on, or only ground when the key is on, then run a relay off of that dont tap directly into it

many high end cars come stock with drilled rotors... It has to do with the quality in most cases. For most cars stock blanks are more than good enough, and usually better than most of the aftermarket choices.

The tsrm says 58 ft/lbs? Or is 72 the number you guys have come up with because the tsrm torque spec is not sufficient?

Will a simple cooling system presure test show me the same thing? Id prefer that over loading my clutch like that.

Yes my cap has a spring loaded vacuum valve and as stated i checked the tube going from the neck to the overflow tank and it is airtight all the way to the bottom of the tank, thats what i dont understand. I will put a pressure tester on the system to make sure i dont have any other leaks...

I have this ongoing problem that i cannot figure out. Whenever my car cools down and is cold, when i squeeze the upper radiator hose i can feel air in there, and i can put a funnel on the filler and squeeze the air out and add more coolant. But the next time i drive the car and it cools off, its...

I have an 87 with 83k original miles. Im a little nervous because i have read the headgasket tends to go in the 80k mile range. I was wondering if head gaskets will give any type of warning at all if they are weak or close to blowing. I have 0 bhg symptoms at the time, oil is clean, coolant...

you can see in the first picture that they are very reflective, i think the other pics were before they were done

Thanks for the tips. BTW my car had a quart over but after i was done it had half a quart less or so. Theres no coolant in the oil and no oil in the coolant at all visually but i havent done a test. Im not too concerened with a bhg at this point as theres no signs of any. I guess i will keep...

i had trd springs for my mr2 and they were the eibach prokits rebadged, maybe its the same thing for the supra?

So i have a 7mge with about 86k original miles and it seems that whenever i run the car hard i tend to lose some oil. This weekend i drove about 150 miles to an autocross averaging about 3300 rpm for about 2 hours, then i had 4 ~1 minuet runs in which i drove it very hard and redlined it a few...
