Would this be the Champion Toyota that you speak of?

Well today I changed out my upper and lower rad hoses, air filter and put in new gatorback belts. I pat myself on the back because I am new to this and it went well. Thanks to the forum. While removing my accordian hose I found that the hose was cracked or split at the end where it connects...

I have a 89 turbo and for the life of me I tried to get the air filter open but it seems that I have to disassemble the intake to the turbo and all the hoses connected to it. Problem is the car has the original filter on it and the hoses are welded on from the 19 yrs of never being changed. Any...

You were right. Seatbelt light works properly again this morning. As far as the short in the harness I wont even try to go there yet. I'm still trying to get all the parts off to change the air filter. Followed by the lower rad hose removal and belts. Good call

Sounds like a good idea. My plug wires are OEM. The center plate has a hole in it (factory hole) at the front most spark plug (front of car) under the power pack. It did not keep the water out and the front spark plug well filled up with water. My supra is a 89 turbo so I don't think the...

My seatbelt light came on and it won't go off. Yes I have the seatbelt snapped in before anyone asks. :biglaugh: The light came on after I cleaned the engine with degreaser and water. Everything else works fine. Any suggestions.

My supra was covered in oil. I believe it was coming from the cam covers being loose considering that I could turn the philips head screws with my fingers. So I tightened them up and now its time to clean the oil and grit off the engine so I can find source of the oil leak. I grab my trusty...

Crank bolt?? I got to mess with the crank bolt to remove the belts?? I hope not. Please explain Any tips on setting the belt tension would also be appreciated.

My bad. Should of know it could change over the years.

Liquid wrench, New thermo, radcap, flush the system, gatorback belts, upper hose all great suggestions. Fuel filter seems like I will have to go the shop for that. I looked at that bottom hose but it sure looked menacing. As far as flushing the system I am going to drain, fill, and run the...

1989 supra turbo see the pics. Wheres the screw?

Thanks for the kind words. I plan on keeping her stock. She is in the garage now and I plan to use her as a weekend holiday driver only. I am going to save up my dollars and replace the HG and seals as soon as I can. The leather seats were very dry. Funny thing is that the passenger seat is in...

Thanks!! I looked at the 4 sale but I missed the sub forum wanted.

Here is a photo of my intake on a 1989 turbo supra. I do not have a screw but you can see that there is no hole. Its stamped metal shut by the factory. My wild guess is that you had some kind of back pressure and it blew it out. Maybe a bad turbo blow off valve would cause a massive boost in...

Wanted working under seat stock radio amplifier. Hi, I am new to the forum and I was wondering if there was a wanted parts section. Regardless try not to laugh but I am looking to find a working underseat fijustu radio amp for a 1989 supra turbo with the premium sound system, radio , tape, cd...

Well the original toyota belts are need of a change badly. 19 years even with low mileage dried them up and they are cracked. Before I begin I would like to know if all the belts are removable without having to disassemble the fan / fan clutch. Any other tips would be appreciated. While I am...

Thanks all. I am not looking into modifications. If I do they will be discrete. I am looking into the damned head gasket issue. The HG is fine now but I would like to prevent any damage. What is it with toyota and loose bolts. I can't tell you how many loose bolts I have found underneath...

Hello fellow Supra citizens. I am new to the Forum and I was asked to post pics and so I shall. Now lets get to business. Well to all of you Supra lovers out there we have a bone stock 1989 Supra Bright Red with Targa Turbo bone stock virgin. Did I forget to tell you the mileage. No! I was...

Would a bad egr cooler gasket or loose egr cooler cause a oil leak that comes out of the back of the engine block? Burning oil / smoke from the back of my block on the passenger side. Stinks !! What is it with toyota and loose bolts.

Wow! Thanks for the replies. I must say this is the most active supra forum I have come across yet. Many thanks to the Admin, Moderators and Members. Just to give give you a little history my previous project card was a Ford Must. 5.0 notchback with over 200k miles. This would be my first...
