    Emergency brake

    Thanks for the link! Um, I guess I could have done a better search. I'm terrible with using the TSRM, either online or in my hard copy, because I can never figure out where to look. I'm slowly learning, but still a work in progress with that thing. This car seems to be teaching me the TSRM in...

    Emergency brake

    I am having some sort of problem that I can't figure out that is holding my car back. One of the things that I want to check is my emergency brake, as my car was drifted in it's life prior to me. Does anyone have pictures of the emergency brake "shoes". It is my understanding that they are on...

    How much would you pay for my car???

    Timing and market also play a huge role in what you can get for the car. If you live where a Subaru outback is a necessity, there may be times that you couldn't give the storage beast away. But, if you waited until the time came for safe sports car driving, you mat get more than it is worth...

    How much would you pay for my car???

    Pictures tell the story! Currently I'm picturing a pretty rough looking car, with a promising motor. And even then, I usually doubt the abilities of a motor builder that I know nothing of. So, like I said, pictures could clear this up. The honesty with which you describe the bad is a major plus...

    Can't figure this out for the life of me.

    Sounds as if you could have a dying fuel pump to me. As IwantMKIII stated, your pressure should not go out with the motor. Your gauge should show pressure for several minutes even after you turn the car off. It could also be a problem in your wiring going to the fuel pump. You may want to...

    NA retorque answer ASAP

    7M is a 7M! Torque specs were awful from the factory on them all. N/A's BHG just about as much as turbo's, and it has little to do with power.

    Need a lil bit of help

    The sluggishness and bucking could be coming from a Boost leak. Check that all of your intercooler pipes are secure and crack free. Remove the one on the bottom of the turbo, and squeeze it looking for small cracks to appear. That hose gets the most heat, and thus fails the most. Sometimes you...

    2009 MKIII Supra Calendar (please read ASAP)

    It does sound as if you are gonna have a much better calendar this year so far. I'm so glad that one of Urbano's cars is gonna be on the list! A thought for that last spot would be Dr.Jones. That would be your pre 89, and a very worthy car.

    2009 MKIII Supra Calendar (please read ASAP)

    ^^^ Did Randy submit his? Post 89's all year will be fine. I wouldn't mind seeing Dr.Jones' now defunct car on the calendar before it is a distant memory. Feedback from an owner of all previous Tanya MKIII calendars, and future purchaser as well. People they are quality calendars. My only...

    NEW INFO! Problem with fuel injectors! Please HELP!!

    You mention plugs missing, and one possibly being for the factory boost gauge. The turbo pressure sensor is attached to a fuel pump resistor on the driver's side. If that is missing, you may have found your problem. It is a small silver rectangle part with ribbed side on top of the shock tower...

    I see a Firebird for sale thread coming to the other cars for sale thread. If this rebuild is done right, and you have any mods, you'll forget the Bird quickly. Welcome to the site!
