Hello all,
I will be painting my MKIII Supra soon and I can't decide what color to paint it.
I work at Napa and can mix paint according to the Martin Senour website and think both of the colors would look fantastic. They would both cost me the same to do and my interior will be painted...
I posted the pics in the original thread that Starscream posted, the mods haven't approved my post yet. BTW I have no aftermarket BS in my car, the problem was that there WAS. I had to do major repair to the wire harness when I first got the car, so the BS alarm that was in the car cut into...
Did the relay mod today and took pics, worked like a charm.
Test car: 1988 Toyota Supra NA/AT chassis converted to 89-92 Turbo 5spd AKA Wiring nightmare.
PICS:
Materials:
Starter wire from the igniton switch (Black with white stripe on my model):
Brown starter clip:

Did the relay today and took pics, worked like a charm. My starter has NEVER cranked slowly, that was how I knew that it worked. If the battery was even a HAIR low all it would do was click. The battery had been powering Metallica for four hours while I finished swapping my dash and doing the...
I already had the starter apart, and shes brand new inside. No misshapen parts no burn marks no corrosion, nothing. She'll start with a remote starter switch, Wouldn't that point to the wiring?
The bearing clearances were just barely in spec. Those caps were SMOOSHING the plastigauge. I...
Oh that helps a bunch! I'll roll start my way to work (Napa Auto Parts) right now! Thanks a lot starscream. And yes, shes running again, I rebuilt the bottom end. .010 under on the crank rod and main journals (Did the mains to be safe) and .010 over on the rod and main bearings. The crank...
I've had my 1988 MKIII Supra for three years now, when I got it (it was NA/Auto) it had this annoying problem. When I would turn the key I would hear the ECU click, and when I would turn back from the start position the starter would click. Back when I first got the car I knew nothing of...
We have an MKI, Two MKII's, one other MKIII (Besides mine), and a Jade Mica TT MKIV, out here in my town of 1900 people. When I used to live in Fremont I'd see supras all the time.... in the junkyards. :D
What he said.
If you want to dump tons of money into a Toyota to put a Nissan Motor in it, rather than spend half the money to put in a more powerful motor that there is already a lot of resources and a lot of success in doing then by all means do it. Not to mention that you can just use an...
Thanks IJ. So since the head has to come off, I guess I should just do the job right the first time. JE Pistions and rings, Eagle Rods, HKS Bead, new rod and main bearings, ARP main studs, Crank grind, head and block mill. Yay.. more money heh.
Looking to just replace one rod and don't want to take my head off. I know that on most motors that the cylinders get smaller at the bottom, but I also know that some don't. My question is: can the 7M have it's pistons taken out from the bottom, or am I boned and have to take my head off? I...

When I got my "Low Mileage Tranny" (r154) it had a grind going into second. I changed the fluid it had in it with Redline MT-90 and the grind went away. I also have Redline 75W-90 in my rear end, no chatter. I also had Redline in all my driveline parts in my in my 6Spd 4x4 Taco before I sold...
Napa Auto Parts can get me six new nippon-denso injectors out of the closest Dist Center for 50 bucks each. Vehicle: 1987 Mazda RX-7 Turbo. I love getting parts at cost. Thanks again for all of your helpful info.
