    Steering pulls to the right (Resolved 11/08)

    Yes..... they did a four wheel alignment. The rear end was way out. When I get the print out I will post it. No..... The car has stock rims and stock suspension. Ok... I have a Ford, Exploder and it developed a bad bearing in the front wheel. They noise was louder depending on the...

    shipping dash

    You might have to bite the bullet and take it to one of the pack and ship or ups stores. It will cost you an arm and a leg. If you don't use the ups store and you ship it via ups I can guarantee you they will damage it. Don't even think about filing a claim either because you will be denied...

    Steering pulls to the right (Resolved 11/08)

    So here is where I am with the pull. I jacked up the front of the car started the engine and the steering does not drift. It stays right where I put it. There is no binding when I turn the the wheel in either direction. While the car was up on the jacks I did notice that the right passenger...

    hp under boost

    I think the OP is under the impression that there is added HP over and beyond the 230hp during boost. Let me rephrase the question for the OP. "The stock 7mgte has 230hp but how much more HP does it gain during (while making) boost." No disrespect intended.

    Looks likes a shot of the navigation control bridge on the galaxy-class starship, the USS Enterprise NCC-1701D. Not that I'm a Trekkie or anything like that you know.

    Steering pulls to the right (Resolved 11/08)

    Well I called my trusted mechanic which unfortunately moved 100 miles away. He seriously, seriously doubts the pull is from the rack and pinion. If the alignment was done correctly and if the suspension steering components are in good order the most likely cause is radial pull or maybe caliper...

    Car Running too Cold

    Read this thread. Some good info on thermostats and testing them before you install them. Your thermostat could be stuck open. I run 180F Super Stant in FL and reach normal operating temps no problem with the thermo needle at 3.5-4 Oclock.

    Steering pulls to the right (Resolved 11/08)

    Raise the front of the car off the ground, run the engine and see if the wheels turn themselves. Good idea I will try that. Yes I live in FL and the roads are nicely crowned. Still my other vehicles drift to the right. I have a pull in the supra. Yes, they did a four wheel alignment on a...

    Steering pulls to the right (Resolved 11/08)

    My steering pulls to the right. You have to hold on to the wheel especially at highway speeds or the car will change lanes by itself. I went to the local goodyear for an alignment and the alignment was off. They put it to specs and the mechanic took it for a test drive. The mechanic tells me...

    Losing boost at 6400rpm. Help!

    Here is a suggestion from of newb. You think you have a leak right. Go back and pressure test the system in smaller sections. Throttle body pipe to turbo outlet as suggested above by Turbo Drifter. If you don't have any leaks there you eliminated that section or closed loop. Then go to the...

    MK3 Crash Safety?

    It takes more force to increase the momentum of a 2500lb vs. a 3500lb object at rest or rest mass. As that force increases (momentum, velocity) its energy also increases and its relativistic mass increases vs its rest mass. The only difference between relativistic mass and rest mass is its...

    My 1991 Jay Blue Supra

    Congrats on getting back into Supras. A bone stock supra is hard, almost impossible to find. Hell even the muffler is stock. I just replaced my catback and I haven't thrown it out because its a stock part. (Kinda stupid I know) Sounds like you didn't pay to much. One owner, adult driver & the...
