    R154 Trouble

    I pulled the motor and tranny from my car, and lost quite a bit of fluid in the process. Over a year later when I put it back in, I completely forgot it had lost any. After about a week or so driving it, it developed a noise similar to what you describe. I just replaced my tranny, because 3rd...

    ^The shop that just did my tranny swap was 3 Asians. The feeling was almost like leaving the baby with grandma..........everythings gonna be OK.

    rebuilding the motor, should I put in my R154

    I'm sure somebody on here knows better than me. But, many people have stayed with their W-58 after upgrading to turbo (not recommended), so they are interchangeable. I don't know if you will get any benefit out of it with the N/a motor. When you swap motors, you're gonna want to pull the motor...

    pulling trans, need words of wisdom

    2-3 feet of extensions will help. Also, remove the driveshaft, and drop the tranny support. The tranny will drop enough to see the top of the bellhousing. I just had my tranny swapped last weekend, and was able to stay under the car while they worked. I know, shoulda done it myself, but $150...

    need clutch info

    I have the stage 3. And today, I'm learning to better control the chatter. It's is getting much smoother. I should get it figured out soon, and it will be as smooth as a stock clutch. Maybe the break in will smooth it out, or maybe it'll just take me a little more getting used to how to release...

    need clutch info

    Update on my XTD set up. I stated earlier that I was going to use the lightweight flywheel and other parts of the XTD (pressure plate and bearings), and use my stock disc. I got it installed on Saturday, and the flywheel was cut too small to fit my crank. I decided since I wasn't upgrading at...

    Steering 'wobble'

    Ditto......My 87 shakes like Shakira Hips with the top off at 55mph. My 90 is not anything like it. I get a little vibration out of it on the interstate, but very tolerable.

    Jay, your car makes the best looking banner car for the site yet. I still love Duanes pic, but yours takes the cake up there. Something to see other than white or red FTW

    uh, hey guys help me!

    That trim is reusable..........and from what I can see, it looks like some pretty good trim. Just be patient removing it. What are you gonna do with that rust? You just priming for now, and repainting later? If it's going to the paint shop, I'd let them fool with the moldings.

    Removing deck trim...

    It's a pain in the ass, but ya, if you get ALL the screws out, it'll come out. If you don't get it out by tomorrow, post again, and I'll try to get pictures to show where all the screws are. I have a few of these pieces around here.

    Whattya think?

    Not sure if he wants to be named, so I'll say there is a bad ass Supra in Mobile that is using the alcohol that was mentioned. It has been falsely identified as a sprayer for the interooler. This guy has his washer resevoir rerouted to spray alcohol into the intake, lowering his intake...

    So turns out they aint that fast....

    Nice Kill Why is it that no matter what somebody kills, everybody wants to tear it down? The fact is...when my Supra cranks, my dick gets hard. If it were a Ferrari, all would be taken care of every time this happened. Who cares how fast it is? I just wish I could have a chance to...

    Forcedtorque vs Cobra

    Tranny is swapped and stage 3 is in place! My flywheel would not fit, so I let them go back with the stock one. I'll have it machined, and use it in my other car. I know I should of done it myself, but Dayum it's hot. Got a good deal, and more confident in it since I didn't do it
