    is there such a thing as too small a battery?

    Couple facts: - Stock setup has a drain...we have a factory alarm. - Tiny batteries are made for motorcycles, not for old cars that might not start, or with a stereo system. - Relocation of a battery is dumb on several levels. Namely because we're a hack back car and the trunk isn't...

    Two Problems (Shifting/Rad) and what the hell is that noise???

    Ah, that's no biggy, would just be a vacuum leak. Now, on to your other questions: - First gear is ALWAYS a bitch to downshift to on Toyota trannies and it has a strong lockout, you have to rev match to get it in. - Second gear syncro seems to take the most abuse, the Redline MT-90 will...

    water hose fitting betwen valve cover?

    Steel in aluminum = SIEZE You'll be lucky if it doesn't snap, it's a hollow bolt with holes in the side as well so it's weak.

    howling noise

    Odd... if it was something siezed it would make the noise while cranking. Or at least it should. Difficult to say over the internet...

    brakes

    If he needs brakes now, it's not going to help much... Powerslots are brembos that have been machined and plated. They're fine and you can probably get a better deal through A2motorsports (one of the forum sponsors). If your stock rotors aren't horribly warped or too thin, machine them...

    Repost....but it never gets old watching that vid. I got into supras because of vids like that, namely of the TX2K vids where the Viper camera car couldn't keep up.

    Ceramic brake pads

    Heat moves from where it's hot ot where it's not as hot. Rotor doesn't have enough mass, it overheats causing the heat to get into the pad and caliper then into the brake fluid. The sytem is just too small for the car in hard driving...

    My 1991 Jay Blue Supra

    Damn, should have gone with samco radiator hoses :D Good going with the valvestem seal replacement, when they leak they make a nasty mess with 4 valves per cylinder... Use copper spray on the headgasket to help seal the HG as it'a OK to use on the stocker. I had a piece of granite...

    Best spring for mk3 supra

    Cutting stock springs is a better idea than some of the junk springs on the market... Most springs are made to lower the car, nothing more. You can get the same affest with bilstein shocks...

    How would g35 wheels look on 89 supra

    *walks outside and looks at car* Yep, stock springs and stock size wheels/tires, still not jacked up that high. His rear is much lower than the front, something isn't right hence my comment on no engine. Your insults aren't needed, take them somewhere else.

    Dunno what's with the tokico love when they're more expensive than the KYB's but have no advantages over them.
