    igniter plugs?

    So after dropping in the engine from my 88T into my 90T, I came across a few things I'm not sure about: Are the igniter plugs the same for 86-88 and 89+? I know one is grey and one set is gree, green being the early models, but before I go digging in my 40ft storage container for the older...

    door won't close?

    So I picked up a 89 turbo targa shell for a few bucks and noticed the doors didn't close. the latch is in the open position, but it seems like when you push the door in, it won't turn over to lock on to the loop thing on the door jamb. the latch itself moves loose, so it isn't stuck, the only...

    Flywheel guides/pins?

    I took off the clutch today on my 87 turbo, and noticed that one of the flywheel guides were bent out of shape. Are these replaceable or do I need a new flywheel?

    alignment of oil pump?

    So while inspecting and changing the timing belt, I find the oil pump puley has a mark on it, painted on. Just to satisfy my curiosity, does the oil pump need to be aligned in anyway? Or does it not matter?

    Clutch questions, R154

    So I pulled off the trans, and guess what I find? Broken bearing hub caused the snap ring to come off, and in turn , the hub itself was no longer attached to the pressure plate. What I found inside seems to be an ACT clutch and flywheel setup. i pulled a spare bearing hub and snap ring with...

    Clutch frozen !!

    Now that my daily driver has been stolen, I got a couple days to get my supra on the road. 1987 turbo starts up, and idles great, revs good, but is very difficult to put into gear, and lurches for ward and dies once you do. Clutch pedal is very stiff, even after bleeding air out. We put...

    TPS reversed?

    So, in pursuit off my bogging after releasing throttle dilemma, I've decided to check the TPS. The ohms are out of spec, so i attempted to adjust the tps. So I undo the screws, and follow Jseaman and the TSRM and turn it counter clockwise till it reaches infinite resistance, then turn it back...

    What is limp mode like?

    What is limp mode like? I have a code 52 and sometimes when idling it'll rev from 1000-1500 up and down by itself. Other times it bogs down to below 500 after letting off the throttle and will come back to regular idle in 2 seconds

    Popping and bogging before returning to idle

    My 87 won't return to idle correctly! After I let off the throttle in neutral or push in the clutch, it will drop idle to 500-600 rpms for a second or two, bogging, then back to regular rpm. It will also pop one or twice when I let off the throttle quickly. I checked the dashpot, and it's...

    hard start, low idle, then it's fine?

    Usually I encounter threads on rough idle after warming up, or rough idle in the first place, but this is weird, and I'm not sure where to start. When the car is cold, it takes about 15-20 seconds of cranking to get it started. and when it does stay alive, it only idles at 250-300 rpm...

    Clutch Master removal?

    i don't know if it's just me, but I'm having trouble removing the clutch master, any tips? I took one off a parts car, and that involved a headache, banged up knuckles, removing the seat, and two ujoints just to get the driverside nut out. Of course, that was before I found SM... I'm not an...

    Swapping in an older motor?

    So I have an 89 turbo shell in great condition, and and 87 turbo in bad body shape, but good engine. Do I just need the 89-92 mounts, and can I use the wiring and ecu? I know there are a few differences like rev limit and such, but will I be fine? I eventually plan on using my 89 block and vrank...

    The car in question is an N/A but it involves my 87 turbo, if it needs to be moved, then feel free to do so. So yesterday, I was driving my 88 N/A and the battery light came on WITH tthe brake light, and the voltage dropped from the usual 14v to a tiny bit less than 12v. i just took the...

    Timing marks good, but wrong stroke?

    So I finally have some time to work on my 87 turbo, and I have some questions. From what I know, the PO blew the head gasket and he pulled the head off, did a port and polish at a local machine shop that does good work, receipts included. He put the head back on, new toyota headgasket...

    electronics still on after removing the key?

    So I noticed this today, that when I shut off the car and remove the key, my brake light is still on, and the ac lights are still on. The power windows also still work. radio shuts off though. Wire short or bare wire touching? Maybe just an ignition switch fault?

    Plenty of supras, not enough time...

    So in October, I bought an 88 NA supra, and man! It's so ridiculously fun to drive! And within a month, I've managed to collect 3 more supras. First was an 90 turbo targa top for free, but the enging was torn apart and missing tons of pieces. Then an 86.5 NA automatic for parts, and...
