    Ummm...me again

    I have no pics of the new car. Honestly it isn't pic worthy yet. Maybe will start snapping some progress pics as I swap suspension and other pieces onto the car. Will start a build thread when I get the required pics. I really do not remember what the avatar was. I remember it looked insanely...

    A340E guru needed

    Sorry to say, your problem will not be fixed until you go through your valve body and refresh it. It is a combination of the check balls, the valve body plate and sticking shift valves inside the valve body that is causing your issue. The solenoids in our cars a rarely bad.

    Ummm...me again

    Not new the Supra or the community but have been very inactive for a few years to say the least. Just posting up to say hi again and try to get re-acquainted with everyone here. Since my hiatus the car has changed a little. I am moving from my 87 platform to a 90 white package turbo car. Am busy...

    who makes the best rack and pinion

    Re-man is usually a crap shoot for what you get. Especially on older items. However, A1Cardone does offer an excellent warranty program that is available to you. Regardless of what a counter-person at Advance Auto tells you, you have this warranty to fall back on. If they give you grief about...

    Coolant Reservoir with Large FMIC (Different / Relocate)

    Jeff, the best alt install I have ever seen was on Adjuster's car. Unfortunately that is the best pic there is of it that I know of. I asked for better but never got anything.

    Positive Wire from battery to fuse box? No Power

    I am working from memory here but if I am not mistaken there is the large wire that goes from the battery to the starter and then another wire from battery to under-hood fuse box. My suggestion would be to go to NAPA and get these part #'s. 728249 battery terminal 781147 bat-starter 781144...

    What brand makes a reliable relay to use for the 12v fuel pump mod?

    In automotive use, less than 10% of relays used on OEM applications are sealed.

    jdm throttle body or usdm?

    That throttle body appears to be for AT vehicle. That would be the linkage for the throttle pressure cable. It seems to be missing the link plate for the actual throttle linkage.

    Metal Heads Unite!

    How is there a thread about metal heads and only a passing mention of Iron Maiden? Other notables for me are Helloween, Dragonforce, Nightwish, Skiltron, Volbeat, Breaking Point, Avantasia, Kamelot, Etc.... I could go on for a minute. I wish I could get past the "mic down the throat" stuff...

    Rebuilt A340e no second gear (FIXED)

    Not the only person with this problem. I couldn't find anyone that could locate the problem. I had a similar story. Replaced all frictions, steel and seals. After re-install trans had no reverse and felt like it would try to start out in third gear. If pulled into 1st gear it would pull fine and...

    87 supra na to turbo build questions????

    The only harness you have to swap is the engine harness. After that an option to swap is the main harness as it will have the correct connectors for the cruise control and boost gauge. Dash and rear harness are the same on N/A and turbo models that are equally equipped (IE TEMS, ABS..).

    turbo

    The real question is how hard would it be to keep it on the car? Turbos in this price range are historically failure prone.

    Auto trans rebuild kit

    Every kit I have seen comes with enough clutches to build a turbo trans. The Supra Turbo uses the most options in these kits so you have less parts left over when completed. I think the Volvo uses 2 less clutches. I could be wrong on that however.

    Auto trans rebuild kit

    Just search for the A340E leave out any Supra reference. They were also used in Volvos and Jeeps. http://www.ebay.com/itm/A340E-F-AW4-Transmission-Super-Rebuild-Kit-/180542013758?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2a0924813e&vxp=mtr

    What upgrade to get 400+hp with a 57trim?

    Gates hose is a tier 1 supplier to many of the OEMs. Saying they use something other than original is just false. I recommend to everyone to request Gates hoses and belts when replacing them.

    This sounds like an intersting project. Loved my Conquest when I had it years ago.

    Rack and pinion?

    It isnt all that difficult to do in the driveway. 2-3 hour task at most.

    Wire Harness

    Swapping the dash harness or the main harness? Both harnesses will be a plug and play. The only issue you may run into will be the theft deterent box if swapping the main harness. The early connector/control unit is not compatible with the newer.
