that list looks good so far, ive actually been looking into dropping a turbo in my na sometime this year and i came across this website http://www.4cefed.com/conversion.html i dont know if this guy has a good reputation. but he mentioned something that wasnt in ur list, it was that the turbo...

there was deff a rattle in the driver's side (what is this called? the right side of the car?) when i took it out. the ball joints and everything is fine, and brakes are near worn but are not touching the squealing metal tab yet so i didn't bother changing the pads yet. and i didnt check for...

hey i've had my two JL's in the trunk exposed and had no problem so far. i dont know about you but i have a targa roof and i cant throw it in the trunk if that sub is there. so i might build a new box in the spring to fit under that plywood where the spare tire goes.

over the past 3 months ive put on a lot of mileage on my car and there was this grinding noise coming from the front of the car that was associated with the speed i was going. i was confident it was the driver side wheel bearing because it went away when i turned the steering wheel fast. and one...

lol maybe i"ll give that a try!

lol im glade you posted this, it made my day! its so funny it almost sounds fake. what kind of a person that mugs carries their wallet on them? lol well if it was true the guy deserved it!

to do a compression test with the engine out it would be wise to rent or buy a engine stand. i never tried it buy maybe you could through a starter on there if there isnt one already and boost it. or you could get a long Johnson bar and use some elbow grease to crank her over. im in pickering...

oh yeah i totally forgot, PICS!!!????

welcome to the forums and congrats on the bhg! i kind of look at it as a good thing, its eventually going to blow and you'll have more confidence in the car knowing you changed it and not the suspicious previous owner. so now is your chance to replace it and possible clean up the head, port it...

holly bonkers! thats amazing! can you get another close up on the interior lights? what do all those buttons on the steering wheel do?

sweet thanks, i'll give em a try

hey nice supra, it doesn't have a spoiler but its a turbo. does that mean the previous owner upgraded it to a turbo? in contemplating on doing that to my na. and keep us informed on your build!

lol no kids yet unfortunately.... but like is the noise coming from ring and pinion gear or the bearings inside?

okay its been a while now and i had my supra since September. its still whining and leaking oil. i top it up every so often but i put 16,000km on it so far and it hasnt died on me yet... i found a inexpensive lsd on ebay. but it is helical differential, is it any good...

i dont want to sound like a complete noob but what is this for? im guessing its for the turbo engines? but isnt the ecu good enough?

you know your a supra owner when you loose 1/4'' sockets in the engine bay just like dropping your wedding ring down the shower drain. you can get it out but you'll need to take everything apart.

is this helical differential any good? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/OBX-LSD-Differential-86-92-Toyota-Supra-Turbo-7M-GTE-V2_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem27acdc0dffQQitemZ170403827199QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories#ht_2567wt_939 i heard obx is not the greatest either.

yeah i like the pressure tester idea. so i looked at the leak again and its coming from that 1'' L hose. its actually leaking ontop of the head so it looks like it leaks below the head. but i cannot see the other end of the hose to take off the hose clamp.

so did u spin out? i did a few weeks ago. now i have snow tires and some weight in the back and its all good. and where are you going to get the shims?

yeah i have the exact problem. but i dont loose oil at all maybe because i have a na? its getting worse and i can see antifreeze pissing out somewhere from behind the head. so its possible its a egr cooler ehh? is there diagrams of where they run?
