    TEMS Problem.

    A couple links to help you... http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=111721 http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=FA&P=29 Probably the first thing you should do is check to make sure the TEMS system is even engaging. To do this, with the car off, turn...

    The Notorious 90 Degree hose

    Subscribed. Will root around underneath and check the condition/leak-worthiness of mine soon.

    Need help in identifying a pic.....

    I dunno. Shadows and lighting on the front are about right. I see where it's clipped at the joint between the hood and the top of the nose. It's either a good "shop" (edited pic) or a bad "chop" (install).

    Actually looking at that pic closer, someone replaced EVERYTHING from the glass to the bumper. Wow, that was extensive.

    So, it's a Supra MKIV with a R34 GTR Skyline front bumper?

    Need help in identifying a pic.....

    I've got a bunch of know-it-all jack-apes on another forum that are giving me grief about a pic on their forum. They couldn't identify their asses with a flashlight-armed cattleprod. The car is in white, with an MKIV pic for comparison. I've already told them that this was a Supra with...

    Calling all mk3 guys!!!!

    Can you take pix of this 90deg. hose? I'm curious which one you guys are talking about. I'm putting in about 1/3 a jug of antifreeze every 3~4 days and not seeing where the coolant is going to (I know my heater core leaks a little, but it's NOT sufficient enough to drain out that quickly!). I'm...

    Seatbelts....

    No, it isn't illegal because it still connects up visibly, and that's what a cop looks for. But this new fancy mod you have allows you to reach terminal velocity in a collision pretty damn quick, no matter from what direction your car is hit. Recommendation: find out where the fault is, FIX...

    "regular oil" not synthetic

    Okay. Now I understand why synthetic oil will sometimes cause an older engine to leak, and it makes perfect sense now. So when I do the rebuild on the engine, naturally I would reseal and regasket everything anyway, which would remove all the old seals that are now leaking due to their age and...

    Synthetic oil in the 7M???

    Yeah, I should've looked a little harder. Thanx.

    Synthetic oil in the 7M???

    When I bought the car back in August, the previous owner told me he had switched to synthetic oil 10W-40, and from what I remember, if the car is switched you DON'T go back. Of course, it's showing oil leaks probably as a result of the changes, so I'll be looking at changing out ALL the gaskets...

    Real or Fake: 30 second parking tkt in Melbourne, AUS

    Sorry dude, but I GOTTA rib on 'ya. Of course they need revenue, you live in West VA. What's the state lottery up to, like $8.50? :biglaugh: J/K, don't foam or anything, I've got family in Charleston.

    Whats your fastest highway mph ??

    If you draft a vehicle taller than your car and you have the targa off, the wind would not push down into the car but shoot over it, due to the aerodynamics. They proved that with convertables and pickups I believe.

    Indiana Police don't "play"....

    No, I think you're missing the point. Adult police officers are a helluva lot stronger than a 10-year-old. Bodily force IS acceptable if the kid is committing assaults on others like kids and teachers, so restraining a child in cuffs, zip ties, sitting on the kid, strapping him to a chair or...
