    The time has come....

    Ring Toyota, I know here they almost give TEM shocks away as they're a low demand item.

    The time has come....

    Change in Gasket material and no change in the torque setting is the root of it.

    You know you're a Supra owner when...

    Instead of diagnosing/correcting an issue you take it as a sign that it's time to spend some $$$ and upgrade>> :)

    rear end wander

    A good 4 wheel alignment by someone that knows what they're doing makes the world of difference on these cars.

    transmission fluid.

    In the steel case Toyota 5 speed I ran in the old Z car I ended up mixing Trans fluid and Gear Oil to get it to actually shift at all when cold :) (otherwise it was both hands on the shifter and blood veins popping on the forehead to get it to move)

    7m rat rod?

    That would work but you still have the LCA from the Titanic ;) If someone has the skills to do this they have the skills to fabriate some arms and just use the Mk3 uprights/steering/brakes. Rear shocks are going to be harder as they're mounted high on the upright due to the axles.

    Current import lockdown on Toyota JDM parts, possible solution?

    I've done this for members in the past but the AUD being so strong rules it out sorry.

    The time has come....

    Many many years ago before most of these guys were old enough to drive Reg Reimer had the Headbolts tested and found like most Toyota parts they're very well made from good quality materials, since ARP's have become cheaper and easily available people just use them as the default fastener, I've...

    top plate on the valve lifter

    They're shims and yes they come out :) That's how you "adjust" valve lash on these engines (DON'T mix them up) Each Bucket and Shim must be kept together and in it's original hole if you're not reshimming.

    7m rat rod?

    Biggest "issues" I can see using a70 parts is a: weight and b: Shock towers, might work out if you can figure out some sort of rocker linkage to run some shocks horizontal, the weight thing will get exe real quick though..
