    My Supra won't sound like a Cressida anymore

    I have the off road down pipe from HKS. I don't know that they sell a downpipe with a cat. Yes, that mod alone made the car pick up much quicker, and the turbo came on much faster. Even with the stock cat back and turbo elbow in place. Boost went a little higher too. Before it pegged above that...

    My Supra won't sound like a Cressida anymore

    No. I won't be purchasing that. Well, not likely. I know it will be way better, but I may go the GT35R route. If I don't do it, I will get their elbow. I have the downpipe.

    My Supra won't sound like a Cressida anymore

    :) I don't want a loud as fart pipe, or to look aftermarket. So that does not leave me with many choices. But HKS still sells their fairly quiet 75mm catback system. So now I have two mods done to my car. :love: This is a big jump for me you know. A big thanks to the high quality service...

    rear end ride height off, something bent?

    Yep. Bent parts will change the angles.

    Pre-build discussion (7MGTE)

    Sarcasm is good for the soul. I like it. Anyway, I didn't see if you planned on trying to increase or decrease the size of the engine. Are you staying at 180 CID?

    Aluminum Driveshaft

    You know, Ford Racing Performance Parts, formerly SVO, sells a truck driveshaft for the fox platform Mustang as an upgrade in strength over the factory stock unit. I am pretty sure they are not aluminum but alloy. Typically doped with magnesium, to make it stiffer than a wedding dick.

    Will N/A cams work with a turbo engine? And the Theory

    Not all 7MGE intake cams are created equal.

    Aluminum Driveshaft

    Are you on drugs? If you think this, then why are you driving a Supra and not an LS1 powered Camaro, or an old 5.0 Mustang. You kids just don't make any sense sometimes.

    Where do you buy steering rack boots?!?

    For future searches, that part is called a bellows boot. I don't think Toyota calls it that, and I don't know if they sell it seperate. They probably sell it.

    Power Window issue

    First, what is the problem with the windows? What battery, I don't quite get it. If you had a low battery, and the car was not running, the window motor would just move slow. Not doing anything is more of a broken wire issue. A switch is possible, I just haven't seen many. And like engine...

    Hot start problems

    Pull the tank? I would just burn it off.

    Car is running rough... Not sure why

    You know, guess what is wrong with the car when you haven't seen it can be tough. Things get left out of the description, or the description does not match how you would describe what was the same problem. And there is a lot of assumptions take about little things. Assumptions that things are...

    A/C Compressor Not Engaging

    What part? 51 indicates the IDL contacts are not closed, or the A/C is on. If you turn on the A/C and pull codes, and you don't have a 51, that is the first problem.

    GE to GTE block?

    Great pics IJ. Toyota did not release this or the crankshaft upgrade in the TSB's that I could find. One dealer I worked at kept a stash all the way back to the mid 80's. A new model tech book might have had it, but I haven't seen one on older models, just new ones. Thanks.

    Craftsman Professional Air Tools

    I am pretty sure there is no "Craftsman" tool company. It is manufactured by other tool companies and relabled. The only one I own is a 3/8 air ratchet.

    What's up w/SF? I can't even get to the site?

    I don't do SF too often. When you go, it shows usership per section. And OT has far more viewers than tech, which is supposed to be why the forum is up. "Nudes now or ban!" I am guessing it hasn't changed.
