    why was 89 a weird year for the MK3... just wondering...

    Starting in 01/89 the subframe/mounts changed to the newer style. I've never seen an 89 with yellow connectors, people have said over and over that they exist, but I don't believe it. From all the 89's I've seen and/or worked on, they were all exactly as the wiring diagram showed. I think...

    Change your oil every six months..WHY?..Time vs. mileage

    I'm not sure what the dealer network is like the in USA, but there are literally thousands of the Denso Made in Japan 90915-20003 filters sitting in the USA, they're the only filters I run in my Toyotas. Jeff

    Gauging Interest: Rear subframe repair kit

    I think probably mostly age and corrosion, combined with bad luck. I've seen some very clean, non-rusty cars with stock power and cracked subframes. Pretty much any A70 subframe could use reinforcement, but the 86-88 subframes need it even more. Jeff

    935Motorsports supplied Injector ID

    Measure the impedance of the injectors and have them flow tested. This is the best way of knowing what you have. Also, contact him, and see if he had them flow tested or what his source is for knowing these are 550cc injectors. For all you know, someone pulled a fast one on HIM. Jeff

    telling where your car is from on vin number.

    Also, I'm not sure if you saw this article: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=47729 I wrote regarding this, it may be what you were originally thinking of, but it will answer even more of your questions. Jeff

    telling where your car is from on vin number.

    There is nothing in the VIN that will tell you specifically the destination of the car. All Supras were manufactured in Japan and shipped over here. What will tell you the destination is the model code on the firewall (86-88) or driver's door jam (89-92). The code will be MA70L-xxxxx, the last...

    A Defiled MKIV

    Due to the exchange rate, my $0.02 (in Lange currency) is worth more than $1.50 in Suprapowaz! currency. Jeff

    A Defiled MKIV

    Needs different wheels, a different spoiler, and the correct rear diffuser to fit into the rear there. Not a huge fan of the Top Secret widebody in black either for some reason. My brother was going to get the Top Secret kit for his Supra, but ultimately decided to go with the TRD widebody...

    1990 tsrm ?

    Sometimes Toyota splits manuals into 2 volumes later, even though originally they were only 1 volume. I've never checked for the Supra, but just saying it does happen. So even though you may have a single volume RM for one year, someone else may have it in 2 volumes. Jeff

    94 toyota supra

    I never liked the kit, so I don't care for this car, but it is a rare/expensive setup. Does that count for something? Not for me to say. Jeff

    Oil Advice from the autozone employee

    Not sure about all of the stickers on the car for different years, but even my AE86 has a 10,000 mile / 16,000 km oil change interval. Toyota actually lowered that over the years, by the time the 93/94 Corolla came out Toyota was at a 7500 mile / 12,000 km oil change interval. On new models...

    86.5 Oil pressure gauge

    I was actually looking for what was after the MA70L, I knew it was MA70L, lol. They don't list any USA models as having the kg/mm^2 gauge, but the EPC could be wrong for very early models I guess. Jeff

    86.5 Oil pressure gauge

    Is your climate control in F or C? Does your fuel gauge say "Unleaded Fuel Only" on it? Is your speedometer in km/h or MPH? If it's just your oil pressure gauge, I'd say someone swapped it, if it's everything, I'd say you probably have a Canadian car. Post a picture further away and less...

    new option for 7mgte coils?

    I'd just like to say that looking into this further, it appears that while the waveform input to the igniter does require a certain dwell time, the igniter still does control the dwell of the coils itself. Which is somewhat strange, haha. Jeff

    Can't believe this is from my city, gold decals mkiv.

    It's definitely the same car from 2 Fast 2 Furious. The hood is a dead giveaway, however it is not a Top Secret kit, it is the TRD widebody with the TRD spoiler. Looks like the picture of the one on Grandma's Boy had the front bumper damaged and/or lip removed or something. Not sure how...

    What is the part # for this

    I really wish Toyota sold some of the harness parts (hold down clips, this piece) separately, but they don't. Jeff
