    Update: 7/12/09- White car stripped for paint

    I'm getting his front kit, but I already have the kit for the MKIV TT rears, so I'm going to stick with that. :) If I'm not satisfied with the MKIV TT rears, I'll sell the kit, and go with ARZ's stuff. Money isn't the issue, but I figure I'll run what I planned, as it certainly won't hurt...

    The Luxocruiser 3650 lb sled thread

    Pics? :) Everybody loves pics! Have you decided where you're mounting the new cooler? And, are you going to use the supplied barb fittings and rubber line, or going -AN?

    Update: 7/12/09- White car stripped for paint

    Thanks, and I'll post more pics as soon as I get some more time to work on it. :) I've decided that I'm definitely going that route. Gotta find a local place that does a decent job. I'll probably get the dust shields done too, after I cut them for the MKIV TT rear brakes. ;) LOL. I can't wait...

    What do you guys do when there is a rusted bolt?

    LOL. It's like my laundry fell off the clothes line out there! Very much so, but rust makes me prance. There's a fine line there between other Supra owners, and rusty nuts. That line: prancing. No layers. :naughty:

    two supra questions..rear end, and idoling

    Try checking the diagnostic trouble codes, the link is below, in my signature. Never throw parts at the car. If you can't get it sorted out, I'd be happy to take a drive down to help you sometime. (I'm the dude who left the note on your window long ago for you to join here. ;))

    What do you guys do when there is a rusted bolt?

    Shriek bloody murder, remove all of my clothes, and prance in the opposite direction whilst singing fairy songs aloud. OR, PB blast, some heat (depending on where the bolt/nut is located, IE, not near fuel sources!) and some patience and you'll get it just fine.

    That's funny, as that was always my thought, too. But, I decided the MKII would be a drag car. ;)

    Haha, nope. I'm staying 7M. :) I love this motor. If I ever score a MKII, I'll likely put a 2jz in it. ;)

    Am I the only stock car in here?

    I can truly appreciate a bone stock, well maintained, and unmolested Supra. I could daily drive one, too. I could NOT, however, satisfy my insatiable lust for power, handling, and overall rush of a heavily modified car.

    Custom fan shroud

    Murkat. :) His car is in the forsale section, as seen here: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=58761 I've always loved that car. :sigh: I'm pretty sure I remember this from pre-hack SM, but I believe that he diverted a majority of the air toward the exhaust side as well, but...

    Removal of Upper Control arm

    Ian- That could be. My car used to have headlight washers, so maybe that's why? I never knew that the washer bottle was larger. :) Cool!

    Removal of Upper Control arm

    If you're talking about the passenger's side, you'll need to partially remove the windshield wiper fluid reservoir, or unbolt it enough to move it aside, as the bolt will hit it before you can remove it.

    Ugh, I despise those little buggers.

    Update: 7/12/09- White car stripped for paint

    Thanks, Steve! Yes, I do adore the sandblaster, from grimy to great in a matter of minutes! :) I got all my new bearings/races/seals today. I'll post pics when I can. I gotta go do some stuff right now!

    Update: 7/12/09- White car stripped for paint

    Top view of the race assy. mostly out: The race assy. removed. Both bearings set in this, then the inner race (axle side) goes on the back bearing, and the axle stub (with the wheel lugs) has a race pressed onto it, which goes in through the front: Completely stripped and empty hub...

    Update: 7/12/09- White car stripped for paint

    So today I went back to the garage where my buddy works, after hours. I spent some time on the left and right hub assemblies, as can be seen here by the EPC diagram, as always, click to enlarge: And here's my progress for today, full disassembly of both rear hubs, waiting for my new seals...
