    Yep I see it too on the upper right hand bolt. Take it to a machine shop and get it cleaned and magnafluxed before spending ANY money on it.

    Diff fluid for 4.30 LSD?

    I really need help! Spark and smoke everywhere!

    FTFY The fusable link is attached from the bottom, gotta pull the entire fuse bow out, pull the bottom off, and then snap that block out and unscrew the contacts. You can replace it with a 100amp version of the other ones like it instead of the wire (like it was on later models)

    Help me decide 2JZ or 7M

    Don't hold back, tell us how you really feel :D Almost reminds me of the 2J fanboys on SF that have never touched a supra or their motors in their life... I think the 7M gets a bad rep because it's usually high milage on our cars and the 1J and 2J's have lower milage. As the MKIV's are...

    Intake Plenum curiosity question.

    They MIGHT save the engine, but most of the time they DON'T. It's a side effect of the plugs, not the reason that they are there.
