    Congrats Everyone! You just got...

    What am I gonna get? My car back to stock (see: everything fixed), so I can finally start modding my little money monster. Oh and paint!

    finally started fiberglass!

    I think he's planning on removing the original... might be wrong though. Don't keep layin' the FG ontop though, it builds up pretty quick. Looking good so far. :bigthumb: I've got an idea for mine I really want to try out, but it'll have to wait until I have a little vacation time.

    K&N oil filter: your thoughts?

    The nice fat bolt on the end... great if it's time to take it off and it's stuck. I looked around and read alot of people on various forums praise them. A couple tests also showed that they do filter better than alot of the other brands (when it comes to really fine particles).... they didn't...

    supra interior changes?

    Hey Jeff, do you know why the lower defrost position won't work with the 89+ CC? Did any wires change position, or perhaps the polarity of the line?

    Really? I found it VERY easy.... once I realized I was looking at the wrong relay. :3d_frown:

    I'm sure the relay could *probably* handle the power load, but I don't know that I care to trust such old wiring to handle it.... but then again the relay may be just as old as the car.

    Pre 89 foglight mod

    Hey, has anyone pulled out the little metal diffuser which sits infront of the bulbs in the foglight housing? One of mine broke loose and I've been wondering if just pulling both out will improve the lighting.... or just hose the light distribution?

    Ah, thanks! I forgot to look. But will the old stock wiring handle that much juice? I think you may be better off adding a relay up front. Just trigger it from the fogs' original + lead and route the power from the battery with nice, new and higher guage wire. I was thinkin' of seeing if...

    supra interior changes?

    The gauges are compatible, if you're swapping all of them either get the same model of tach (ie: n/a? get and n/a tach, turbo? get a turbo tach.). The differences are pretty much just asthetic, guage faces are different and the needles are different. The Climate Control is a straight swap...

    Hey Jeff, what's the highest current the fog relay can handle? I'd like brighter bulbs, but don't feel up to wiring in a relay up front just yet.

    Pre 89 foglight mod

    Just did mine a couple hours ago. I tested the yellow wire referred to in the version I posted up..... don't use it. I fed the switches red/green from the solid green line (dash illumination). Then grounded the relay's white/green wire..... took a while I was looking in the wrong place...

    how to get at centre spark plugs..

    It's really not bad at all. After taking it off once you'll be able to get through it damned fast everytime thereafter. You don't need to completely remove it either, just remove the accordian, a few bolts and disconnect the support brackets... leaves plenty of room.

    D'oh! I'm Sorry HellsLegion... I wasn't thinking it through. You had the red/black right to begin with, just the white/green was wrong. EDIT: Hey I see you got 'em going. What'd it take? Just the white/green on the relay to the ground and the switch side how you had it to begin with?

    Let us know how it works! I've been too lazy or too busy fixing broken stuff to do this on mine yet.

    Pre 89 foglight mod

    Yeah, and I suspect you may have grounded the wrong side of the white/green wire. From what I understand the side going to the relay needs to be grounded and the dash side capped. Neither one of those two is a tapped or "Y" connection.

    Disconnect the dash side of the red/black wire and cap it. I *think* that's the prob.

    Front bumper / lip

    Whoa, what's the story with the T-top Supra? Was it a hardtop or a Targa? Have anymore pics? Is that yours? BTW - That moulded lip was wicked! Bummer it's gone.

    He wasn't unsure about his wiring, it was the wiring listed in the version I posted he's unsure of.... sorry, I haven't checked it against my '88 TEWD either. I was really just posting it for those who need some kind of ballpark idea where things are located.
