    What did you do to your supra today? Pics

    No smoke at all although it has been cold here lately but the smoke doesn't look or smell like anything out of the ordinary. Oil smoke is a thick white smoke right? The smoke I have seen from my exhaust ever since it got cold was very thin or light smoke that you see coming from exhausts in the...

    New Monroe max lift hood struts, work beautifully but I found out today that the rear ones are starting to go out, so soon I will be replacing those. I also found out that my oil level is very very low when I checked it there was a little bit of oil on the tip of the dipstick and that confuses...

    Changing my head gasket, me asking for your help while doing this

    Yup, it is the heater hose I can tell because of where the rust is lol it is annoying that my cooling system is rusty or turns the water into a rust color but it is helpful for spotting leaks especially on the driveway you can see powdered rust if something leaks over night and the water...

    Changing my head gasket, me asking for your help while doing this

    If it is that small 90 degree hose I am going to murder people because that thing is a MAJOR PAIN IN THE DICK to put on. I will check it out and find the source of the leak tomorrow morning if I have time then order a silicone hose accordingly.

    Changing my head gasket, me asking for your help while doing this

    Found the leak it seems to be coming from the top hose that goes to the back of the motor I've had problems with that before but it was just me forgetting to tighten the clamp maybe it needs to be retightened but I rather get a silicone hose for it, do you guys know if they make one to replace...

    I noticed today that my coolant light came back on I topped it off figured it was just air getting out since the level was not very low it was near the top and I poured some water into the reservoir and that stopped the light from coming on. Well yesterday it came back on and I didn't pay too...

    Changing my head gasket, me asking for your help while doing this

    well the reason why I want a JZ is because I would build it to where it is a new motor, more available parts, better sound, can handle more power, better gas mileage as well, and I am not trying to have a lot of down time on my MK3, so I plan on getting a JZ motor and building it to where I want...

    Changing my head gasket, me asking for your help while doing this

    A friend of mine may be giving me a 2jzge block for free, is it worth using that to build it to my goal of 500hp or will the block not be able to handle it?

    Changing my head gasket, me asking for your help while doing this

    I don't remember hearing the rod knock when I was on Rotella 15w-40 but I've been told that using that oil is making the pump work harder.

    Changing my head gasket, me asking for your help while doing this

    Yea the reason why I don't think it's a big issue or one at all is because it only knocks for 2 seconds max during the initial start up then it's fine.

    Changing my head gasket, me asking for your help while doing this

    interesting, I'll just leave it as is since I am not having any problems unless that slight rod knock on cold starts is bad.
