Werd. They've got them for $45 including the axle attachment, so I'll either go this route or see if I can rent one from somewhere.

WOW, Hell of a story. Glad you're getting better. Also- I've never seen someone so truly motivated to improving performance. I mean- usually people will get rid of bumper supports and interior pieces to lighten up, but you!- Pulling adnoids and tonsils?? MAD props man!!! j/k- Welcome back!

I know- I guess that was redundant of me. :aigo:

Hey guys- I've been trying to remove the two side axles from an LSD(out of the car), and my 3lb puller just aint cutting it. I was wondering what people are using for theirs. Did you just go with a beefier 5 or 10lb puller, or using prybars?(this didn't work for me either.), or did anyone...

Supramania keeps me off the streets, and off drugs. For real, though. It's nice to have a place to share a common interest like the Supra. As for what kind of message we send out to others? If I had to sum it up- I love Supras because they are rare, they are old school, they can keep up, and...

How much for the heater core? Sorry- joking is my way of dealing with intense feelings of rage and loss. It looks like the fire had absolutely nothing to do with the engine or fuel system. WTF is wrong with people? It's like those who don't have always resent those who do- even when they...

...or world domination by through threat of nuclear reprisal...

Lookin good. And of course more pics are always appreciated.

The rear one is the fuel pulsation dampener. People sometimes remove that as well, but you want to replace the front one. That's where the fuel is exiting the rail, headed for the J-tube down on the side of the block, and heads back to the tank. I assume you're replacing/ or have replaced the...

Assuming your engine is a turbo and not an na-t, the O2 sensor should be of the 3-wire type. IIRC, two of the wires are the heating element circuit, and the third is the signal wire. And it does make sense that this could be your problem, as when a 7mgte is cold, the car is in open loop...

So if I'm reading this right, you're saying you kept up with a turbocharged Mustang Cobra in your NA Supra...?

Same same, verbatim. Only mine didn't come off till about 65mph, and it scared the shiite muslim outta the CRX driver behind me. He got out of the way in time though, since the top gained so much altitude before falling.

You just ordered them from the local dealer? I figured you couldn't get those here since the cars weren't sold here. BTW- How much were they? Dang Canuckrz- you just beat me in.

Seriously- I know you mentioned a new cat, but it really does sound like a cat blockage. Happened to me, and I started bogging more and more when going into boost. Took it off and found it was like 80% blocked. Replaced it and bam! crazy boost right into FC. PS- my cat clogged up in less than 8...

Awesome work, Limequat. I'm looking forward to some more vids, and hearing it rev. : )

It's the head gasket. sorry- I know that didn't help, but it's late and I couldn't resist. Good luck, and when you find out what it was, you ARE required to post the result here for posterity.

So...what was the problem?

Flush your cooling system thoroughly and get rid of that brown crud in it! Also, that cooling reservoir can be removed by pulling it straight up, and off its mount(watch your fingers though). Blast it out with a hose to get rid of all the crap in it while you're cleaning the whole system. I also...

What TxSupra said! Don't run that car without SOMETHING blocking or connecting the EGR/exhaust ports!

Back in 1985, my college roomate(yes- I'm THAT old) had a brand new 84 Supra, and he had to replace the valve stem seals in his 5M three times over 25,000 miles. Was that a common issue with 5M's? I ask, because I don't know.
