Ohhh nice, you know where Great Hills is? that's where I used to live 15 years ago LoL... it was a really nice area. So could washing out the built up deposits cause my steering to go bad??? it's odd though because after I loaded the supra up today, the steering noise died down just a little...
A little update... I decided I wanted my fogs to come on with out having to turn on my taillights, so rewired the fuse line to the cig lighter... more awesomeness :D
Thanks for the offer!! How far are you from Austin?? (I have no idea where Leander is >_<) and thanks for the links as well... taking a look now... as for my own research, I can't seem to find anything on transmission noises, everything I have found says torque converter *sigh. Here's a more...
weerd thanks for the advice guys!! I'll be sure to keep it in mind when I go looking for shops. I'm also going to try and contact some local supra owners and see if they have any suggestions as well... like i say all the time, this is a great community... everyone helps out so much. I just hope...
Hmmmm well the parts in question are a steering rack assembly from rockauto and a used a340e trans with 108k miles. I would love to install it myself, but I don't have the tools or the shop to do so, and plus I don't trust myself with such a big undertaking. Can toyota do a tranny rebuild or...
Did the 89's+ also have the semi clear sparkly mouldings the pre89's did??? I'm sure you guys know of what I speak... I saw a red supra with the same mouldings (in red of course)... if pics are desired, I will post em tomorrow... It's kinda hard to use words to describe the moulding, personally...
Which is why I want em sooooo bad LoL (but of course, if i get them that means i need new mouldings... and i doubt anyone has the nice sparkly blue moulding that my car has right now... and i don't think the lights come with sparkly moulding hahaha.. but then I do plan on getting them painted...
Gota7mgte, check em out here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120680731995&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT... I was hoping to get these guys, but my money is needed elsewhere, so for the sake of the community, here they are
boostcraver, golly after hearing...
PM sent!!, and about the lights, I have to agree, due to some errors I had made while painting them, I ended up with a much darker result than I had hoped for. Looking at them now, I also feel they are somewhat overboard and add just that much more rice to my car :( A set of JDM would be very...
HUh... when it comes to steering, there isn't much aftermarket stiff for that is there? besides tie-rods etc. I'm talking about the rack/pinion assembly, and the whole front bar thing... So i take it the best thing I can do is to have toyota order the parts and replace them...
---------- Post...
It seems toyota service is really really dependent on who helps you lmao, then again it's the same deal anywhere so. Anyways pics from yesterday:
no engine oil leak, just more powersteering
Lights installed... looks kinda out of place because the lights are shinier than the rest of the...
hmm good advice, I will Look into it... I don't have that much stuff (it all fits in the supra) so just any sedan will work just fine... but one that can pull a supra that most likely outweighs it... meeehhhh LoL
Thanks for the info!!! I have the tsrm bookmarked... I'm in the midst of studying the transmission section now... I 'm wondering if I should get her tuned up once I get to Austin that way the dealership there can get a first look at a supra that's gonna be showin up ALOT LoL... wonder if there's...
so true... last time I went they said I needed a new steering COLUMN... looking at my problem I don't the column is an issue... its the gears and the whole horizontal structure that needs overhauling... so... toyota for tune-up... got one vote for yes... any others?? LoL
Agreed, about the mods... I think my biggest priority right now is the steering... it is REALLY bad, my mom drove it around today, and for the first time I was able to hear how bad it is from outside the car, from like 10 ft away I can hear the moaning and groaning from the steering system and...
hmmm those look nice, I actually read about that on some article about lights for cars... I might check into that later, but now I have greater concerns. My gas mileage has dropped drastically since I did the oil change, and added the Power Intake, I went from 19.something to 15.9... ...
PM sent :D but for anyone else wondering as well, here's the link:
