One switch will trigger as soon as you move the clutch. That one goes to the cruise control, so that it turns it off as soon as you press the clutch pedal. (Normally open, closes as soon as the clutch pedal moves.) One switch will only trigger when the clutch is all the way to the floor...

Just replace the speakers. They're common 4" speakers, you don't have to spend a lot of money aftermarket to get speakers that are better than the OEM ones.

The way the factory 6.5" pods are made, you can't just seal the backs up, it would end up being way too small. I'm making my own pods for 6.5" speakers, probably going to start on the plugs for it this weekend. I am considering making more than one set, so that other people could do this as...

Project's got it right. Small addemdum though, there are 3.5" speakers in the rear for '89-'92 as well. Toyota labels them "sub-speakers" -- not to be confused with subwoofers. I'm working on a set of pods to put 6.5" speakers in the doors. The 91+ cars have an open mount for the 6.5"...

Well, we'll see. I'm going to start making the plugs for these this week, maybe a weekend project to get them going.

Is there anything in the tail lights that doesn't take 12V? What would a 12V tail light mod be? If you're blowing fuses, start looking for grounded wires. Edit: Sorry, that was, of course so obvious that it shouldn't need saying... Start with any wires that you may have changed, in...

I drove an NA Mk3 for 12 years. It actually seemed faster off the line. It was fun to drive, but definitely lacked punch in the upper end. It was a good, solid car, and treated me well. At 350,000 kms, the valve stem seals had gone, and after blowing a hose, the head gasket (of course)...

The point of the Lexus AFM is that it lets the stock system handle the 550cc injecotrs. If you want to be able to handle injectors larger than that, you really need to start looking at a different fuel computer. The Lexus AFM is a good hack, and works well, but for larger injectors, you need...

Diana: That's a fairly simple setup, but it has some drawbacks. 1. The 6X9 speaakers don't seem to be fully baffled, that is, it appears that the rear part of the speakers is just open. I'd recommend putting hte speaker in an enclosed box, for best effect. (This can certainly be done...

Shoudn't be a problem. Though even at stock power, the clutch for the W58 should be upgraded. The W58 shifts better than the R154. It took me a while to get used to the feel after I swapped in my R154.

Right. The speedo will be fine. Leave the transmission/differential alone, or swap in both pieces from your turbo car, and it'll be fine. I checked mine (Though one was listed as rev/mile and one in rev/kilometer) and they were the same. The transmission gear goes with the intended...

Second-hand experience, but... The climate control is a direct drop-in. I was using an '87 climate control for a period of time while I had my '89 one out for LED swapping. The instrument cluster SHOULD be a direct drop-in, though if not, the individual instruments are. It's possible...

There are a lot of nice aftermarket decks that will work with the dash quite well, or you can look for someone who has their factory deck changed out for aftermarket.

Incidentally, when the driver's side switch "fails" it's usually the passenger side switch that's the problem. This is because the use of the driver's side switch requires that the neutral position on the passenger side make 2 separate contacts. The reverse is also true for the passenger side...

The online TSRM is for 1990, which has an internal HAC sensor, so you won't find it in the on-line manual. You can find the pin diagram for the '87/'88 ECU though which will tell you what ECU pin you need to connect.

Head unit. If it were the amp, it wouldn't matter what the source is. It could be as simple as the laser lens being dirty, but I think it's more likely that the DAC has gone.

Okay, I just got my set of MB Quart 6.5" separates, and I'm going to make 'em fit these doors, for sure. I also got a set of Kicker SSMB6 6.5" subwoofers, which I may install instead, if I can get more than 0.3 ft^3 and the requisite mounting depth, and locate the components in kickpanels...

The Chinese seem to have zero regard whatsoever for any kind of intellectual property. If they can copy it, they will. And once they do copy it, there will always be a market for the cheap knock-offs. Just like with spam emails. That would stop too if people didn't RESPOND to them. I'll...

No. You need the axle code from the body data tag. The NA will either be a G284 or G285, with the 4 being a 4.300:1 open, and the 5 being a 4.300:1 limited slip.

Absolutely. You can have my stock 1989 non-amplified head unit, if you pay shipping, though it's cassette only. It's been sitting under my desk for years now, and I'm never going to put it back in. If it plays at all, then it's gotta be connected right. The unamplified signal will not...
