    Spec Multi disk party install completed!

    No, because he didn't get that far. The Spec unit was pulled out along with the R154 tranny. Yes - this one has one sprung, one solid disc. They also sell it for a lower torque rating with 2 sprung hubs, or a higher torque rating with 2 solid hubs. The instructions said to put it through the...

    is there a more intelligent question than 'is it turbo?"

    At least they are showing interest. Keep in mind, there are a *LOT* of people who still believe that the only way to make power is large domestic V8 engines. Some of these people have heard that you can make power using a much smaller engine and a turbo. The famous example of this is the Mk4...

    Spec clutch rivets...wtf?

    This should be really easy to check anyway, just pull off an inspection cover and look for the rivet. Should be able to see whether it's there or not pretty easy, and it's only two bolts.

    Spec clutch rivets...wtf?

    I'm not sure what purpose these serve, but mine certainly has them, just checked.

    Checking spark w/ timing light

    FYI - the CPS can be 180 out, it will still run fine. One of the benefits of our wasted spark ignition.

    why switch to 91-92 dipstick

    That's just an early model Supra one. You can get it from just about any 86.5, 87, or 88 if it's still got the original. Hell, it's in the Cressida, too.

    What is the hottest steering wheel for a MKIII?

    There is a momo center available that keeps the cruise controls. I'm still a fan of the stock 89 wheel though.

    Question about how YOUR R154 feels....

    Redline MT90 will be much better than the stock Toyota stuff, well worth the investment. Might even fix your problem - sure helped on my 1-2 shifts. I'm assuming that your extension does away with the stock rubber bushing inside the shifter, this does a really good job of making a rough tranny...

    Flywheel inspection cover

    Definitely interesting. I'd like to know where they list the W58 part in the EPC, though...

    Welcome to the Family

    That's awesome! Congrats on the new addition to the family. Mom & daughter both doing well, I assume? You should pick up a farewell card, and send it off to your last good night of uninterrupted sleep. ;) Get some pics of that kid with a wrench in her hand already!!! :D

    Flywheel inspection cover

    Patience, young paduan, patience. 45 minutes between posts isn't long enough to get an answer - at least not the answer you want. No, they are not the same. Actually, as far as I know, the W series transmission doesn't have any at all.

    Do you HAVE to lap the deck?

    As long as they keep their cutter in good shape, then sure. Some folks have gotten it surfaced using a different tool... Surface Grinder? It's been a while since it was brought up, but ask your machine shop if they have anything else that can finish a block to a mirror.

    Why is my New Clutch Slipping - proper break-in

    For what it's worth, I measured my RPS flywheel, it's 0.65mm +/- 0.03mm.

    Why is my New Clutch Slipping - proper break-in

    I've used stock and the RPS lightweight flywheel. Must admit, I'm awfully fond of the RPS... Flywheel step is 0.2 mm, 'tis on this page http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=CL&P=12
