    Ebay Full Silicone Hose Kit

    Plus for that car, you wouldn't have to worry about longevity. If they ever start looking shitty, you just hit 88mph, go back two years, and steal them from yourself. :: hommer :: PS- I just got a message from the seller, saying they were out of black, so it'll be a couple days till mine...

    Georgia MK3 Supra Meet in April

    Hey- It was good to meet all you guys today. I enjoyed checking out the Supras. I do hope I can get my Supra to a future meet, but it probably won't be till the fall.

    do i dare use this?

    I'd rather take apart the hot side vs. the cold side any day. But that's just me. :)

    Georgia MK3 Supra Meet in April

    The skylift lot is right next to where the carving is on Stone Mountain. Its a smaller lot, but should have plenty of available parking. Say Cramer- is there anything i could bring that you'll need? Ps- so far, looks like good weather AND ill be in town!

    Georgia MK3 Supra Meet in April

    LOL. Relax, Jason- let's just plan on taking a couple of "ugly DD attendees" pics at this meet. I think at this point, everybody here knows that, even if some of us have to come without our supras, we will still be coming to support and meet up with those that do, AND those that are working on...

    some head gasket repair questions...

    I doubt that your oil passages will be gunked up much at all. I wouldn't bother blowing stuff in various directions; Instead I would do a coolant flush and oil changed once its reassembled.

    Georgia MK3 Supra Meet in April

    This is kind of a late suggestion, but should anybody mention here if they're looking for any mkIII parts? That way if anyone else happens to have them, they could bring them along. For example, I'm looking for a good condition 89+ front lip, 89+ grill inserts, and a driver's side C-pillar. I...

    88 Blue Turbo restoration/upgrade story

    The only way to get machinists to move along sometimes, is to drive down and visit them. Just basically say-" Hey man, just stopped by to see the motor, and what you've got done so far."

    Need Help Pleases!

    You can test the cps theory by removing the adjusting bolt, to allow the cps to turn farther than normal. That way you can turn it into a 'correctly' timed position, if that's indeed the problem. If you can get it to run by turning it either way, then you know you have to re-time the cps.

    Finally my new air guide! (pics)

    You know what pisses me off? Just found out today that HPF no longer carries the oem JDM lip. Damnit. Shoulda bought one when I had the chance...

    The Rebuild! (90T)

    I've never had a problem tightening or loosening the rear(or any) nuts while it's in the car. I can tell you that it takes a narrow socket to loosen or tighten in general, but the only thing cam-wise, is you haveto rotate the cams a bit in order to torque/ loosen all the nuts. I think one thing...

    The Rebuild! (90T)

    PS- It's literally only $10 more for head studs. Just sayin. http://thmotorsports.com/i-61534.aspx?utm_source=GoogleShopping&utm_medium=CSE&utm_content=61534NOFITMENT&utm_campaign=GoogleShoppingSeanNOFITMENT

    The Rebuild! (90T)

    Great work so far. As for your studs- it's not uncommon for them to unscrew from the head. Just remove the nuts from them. Check the threads of the studs- is there any aluminum in them? If not, you might be ok. Make sure the threads are clean and well oiled. Or, you can get new studs from the...

    The Rebuild! (90T)

    As far as the compression worries- if you dont plan on decking the block during this build, i dont see an issue. I guess you might mean that you're worried about it rising if they cut the head, though? ARP bolts should be fine for your plans, though i myself wouldn't spend ~$90 on bolts when i...

    The Rebuild! (90T)

    Great job. A few things i would recommend; use arp studs for the rebuild. They are much stronger and are reuseable. Use either a felpro or oem head gasket- better design than most replacement gaskets. Helicoil the exhaust manifold threads. This will allow you to keep factory tension on the...
