Never heard of it happening, but is it possible for you to get a grinder up there with a cutting wheel? Can't imagine it bending without causing a deformity to the upper arm's geometry as well.

Are you talking about the internal seal, because that tends to be the major culprit. If it's oily inside the cover, then that's the one you need to address. Just did my rebuild. See my build thread for all the pics of it, starting at post #269...

Was out of town for a few days, but got a couple of little things in the mail today, including the new bearing for my idler pulley. Pressed that in and now it rolls smoothly. Also got these- BIC poly engine mounts: Picked them up used on Ebay for cheap, from a guy parting out a Supra. Edit-...

PS- I like the seats. I was planning on the same exact color combo for my burgundy interior.

Older than everyone on here except perhaps IJ and JJ Let's just say I have seen a live feed from the moon, and leave it at that, kids. PS- Gates claims that their racing belts are up to 300% stronger than oem. Stronger how? I dunno. I guess in terms of stretch or actual failure point.

That oil around the drain plug looks to have been sprayed there. I would expect it to be the output shaft seal.

Looks really great. Don't get rid of it, though.

I would say plan on $50/10hp for the first 25hp, $150/10hp for the next 50, and $300/10hp for anything above that. But to be helpful, just focus on a freeflow intake, freeflow exhaust all the way up to the turbo, and shim the wastegate with 2 washers. That'll bump you from ~210whp to ~250+. And...

I believe that with the '91, you have an actual drain on the underside of the fuel tank. Like A.S. said, drain it, and put fresh in. Also, since you have to replace the valve cover gaskets, drain your oil, and refill while the covers are off. That'll give you the opportunity to pour the oil...

Damn it. I hate when i prove my own stupidity. Its easier to take when the burden of proof is on others. :)

Cool. Tell him to get back on SM!

Um. He hasn't updated in almost 3 yrs, so he may not hear you.

Well, i dont normally comment on other people's fecal matter, but that's one really pretty turd you have there.

Lol. See? If they had named it the tail light invincible box, we probably wouldn't EVER have problems with it... I crack myself up sometimes... Anyway, yes. Mkiiichip has a good a suggestion.

Aha, never knew that the studs were specifically 9/16. Is the average 9/16 socket slightly narrower or slightly wider than 14mm? I'm wondering for the purposes of ease of socket fitment past the cams.

Ah, but i have a gates racing belt, and its definitely better than oem because... ...it's blue. ...so i've got that going for me....which is nice.

Yeah, i rebuilt my rear suspension with the subframe on the floor. And i also have the Weir stage 1, and orange ronnie k. Bushings. Pretty similar builds,h Eh?

I always ask, but did the shop also deck the timing cover? Welcome back. And don't call it a turd, call it a TRD. :)

Oh, i might have a couple.
